THE COLOR WHITE - ROBERT RYMAN, LUCIO FONTANA, EDMUND DE WAAL, RACHEL WHITEREAD, YOKO ONO AND MORE.
Today's episode is all about the color white, and how it is and has been used in the work of artists like Lucio Fontana, Edmund de Waal, Robert Ryman, Rachel Whiteread, Agnes martin and more. White affords a way of seeing that goes deeper than just the eyes, and I want to explore that in today's episode.

    Thank you. I would like to add a few more observations. White surfaces appear to increase light reflectivity. In the absence of colour, we tend to look harder for nuances of mark and surface. This seems to invite meditative or contemplative states when looking at the work. Also, as in the case of Robert Ryman, if white has been pre- determined for a series of works, then the artist can switch focus to the other aspects of making outside of colour.

    In Cleo from 5 to 7 the two hours refer to the period between work and home - in France traditionally the period of time a man would visit his mistress before returning to the family. That netherworld between public and private defined in Cleo by her waiting on her diagnosis, her relationship with boyfriend, her view of her career and finally her conversation with the soldier. That in betweenness plays out through the body of her work often literally like in La Pointe Courte, La Bonheur, One Sings, Kung Fu. Even in more personal films The Black Panthers, Demy and JR she herself is the one in between the worlds of public and private. I love your content, research and insights (modalities is four star!) but … I’d love to see you delve deeper into the major themes/throughlines of the bodies of work you are looking at.

    I worked as gallery walker for several months at the Noguchi in LIC, it was a privilege to experience his work over a length of time. Noguchi steps beyond his mentor Brancusi in putting aside style, prefigure post-modernism, but a Noguchi is always recognizable as a Noguchi. There is always a spirit or sensibility that is unmistakable. He really takes Brancusi’s ground breaking concern for presentation (one of the first modern examples if installing art) and began asking questions about human interaction with the work - the Graham theater sets, flat pack sculptures, playground and public squares, commercial industrial design and then the museum

    Thank you for presenting your research in such an interesting and engaging way. I am intrigued by the concept of 'purity' in Noguchi's art/work. My first thoughts are that this has something to do with an appearance of simplicity of form in relation to the materials used. In fact, it is perhaps a sign of the brilliance of his work that what actually involves complexity can appear as simplicity of form/ 'purity'.

    • @AnInterest
      @AnInterest 3 месяца назад

      Yes I agree that it has something to do with the effectiveness in such relative simplicity

    I just listened to an interview with the Menil and even they said that he would not be videotaped for their purposes, he would only allow his voice to be recorded. He rarely ever gave any interviews at all. His comments about his own work were also full of false trails. Even Cy Dear has next to nothing and these were the people who knew him most and were part of his life. Any comments around him can only be framed in this context and only really take us around the periphery, which is clearly what he wanted.
