My name Is Mike Lorusso and i live in Italy I started doing art at the age of 61, and I have learned so much from your videos. Your videos are always clear and informative, and you take the time to explain art concepts in a simple way, even for those who don't have an art background. Thanks to you
Fabulous tour. I would have loved to see the piece that all we could see what its backside and his signature. What was on the face of it? Why was it hung in this way?
Thanks Mary Lynn, enjoyed that, especially the extensive Soulages show. Like you my faves were those from the 60s. Also liked the Emma McIntyre works. She's a fellow New Zealander but I hadn't heard of her.
Thank you for the extra time and effort in presenting the Pierre Soulages. Really grateful that you included the year each piece was made and a link to the catalog. Merci
I really enjoy your commentary on the art and it's nice to see you in the video. It feels like going on a tour with you. I live in the Midwest and it's always fun to take my wife to Chicago and spend a day walking through galleries. Keep up the good work!
This is my favorite episode so far (I'm watching in backwards order). All of the artists really interesting, even though I agree with you on the signatures on the wooden sculptures (although I did enjoy the mid-century form language with the mdf- and marker materiality) I loooove the big blue green McIntyre painting. what a masterpiece. I love love all of the Pierre soulages. Roy Lichtenstein is not an artist I'm very interested in normally but these sculptures were quite special. Anyway just wanted to say I very much appreciate your work, its so wonderful that you are sharing your experience in these amazing exhibitions all over the world :)
So I've just had a look at the Armitage exhibition, Bermondsey that you've linked. Think that deserves a Wow. There is one painting with a kind of red river running through. An exhibition alongside Peter Doig would be a thing maybe! That's a space very much to my taste.
Without going particularly big on Michael Armitage before the painterliness in the service of figuration stood out for me: one painting among so many too! Some seductive abstracts from Soulages and seductive, beautiful, spaces too. That must have been an enjoyable walkabout and thanks for inviting us along.
I love Michael Armitage’s work. The London video of White Cube’s Bermondsey space I linked in the description box has a great walkthrough of his last show there
Really enjoyed the Aaron Curry work. Tend to agree with you about the signatures but I'm sure he intentionally wanted to make it a distraction and not to think of them in all the references you mentioned.
For the Aaron Curry exhibit I would have to add Joan Miro as one of his influencers. Some appear almost identical except for the graffiti. Thank you Mary Lynn for your thoughtful and professional presentations.
Thank you so much Mary Lynn. It is great to see what’s happening in the gallery scene and I watch you often to inspire my artwork. I think some viewers need to remember that art is about breaking rules, creating new art forms and directions. New movements would not have happened if not for the brave souls forging new paths. It’s all about expanding our view of beauty, aesthetics, concepts, etc. Although not all of the art may appeal personally, it’s important to keep an open mind. Love your voice and videos….
amazing! love the site! just one thing mary, could you balance the voice volume with the music? bothe are great , but the music is too low, so i turn it up, then when you talk its super load! that would be amazing if you can do thi? thank you- love your videos!
Cool, I’m in Berlin for my exhibition at Künstlerhaus Bethanien. I was referring to your past Berlin vid for ideas on where to go. Do you have any other recommendations beyond that regarding galleries? Thanks:))
I noticed other peoples faces weren't blurred in recent videos. I hope that continues. I found the blurred faces distracting and it seemed a bit dehumanizing. Your videos are so beautifully photographed and produced by the way.
Oh! What fun... When you were walking through the gallery that featured the black canvas variations by the French artist, I noticed that you were wearing all black (at least from the view courtesy of my mobile). You shoes are also black and seem disproportionately large compared to the rest of you. That compelled my imagination to throw a large black veil over your head... and then... you could stand motionless for minutes or hours in that gallery - making an additional contribution as a sculptural work in progress.. 😮 I have always personally believed that leaving the artists creative intent in silence. Yes, when I create works I often do so with clear intent, especially in regards to the symbolic aspects of my work, but I prefer to leave the interpretation to the viewer which can be quite different due to their personal perspective. I do appreciate your commentary,.however but sometimes find these artistic statements restrictive because there are always perceptual variants.
Robert Ryman used the image of the crane in his work in the 80's? I did not know that, or that there were any figurative images in his work at all. I do know that Sigmar Polke did though.
Ah! Apols! I heard Ryman not Rauschenberg! Thanks for the clarification. For a moment I thought I’d been missing out on a significant dimension of RR’s work😂.
In your opinion, what determines the actual worth of the art? Is it the galleries in which they are displayed…the demand…the powers that be? I do try to be open- minded. Sometimes it’s difficult when I see a totally black canvas.
Modernist stuff from the 60s has it place but all the Post Modernist are so boring, depressing we haven't had any new trends besides NFTs in the past 50 years 😭
We need a movement. The reason work from over 35 years ago is so coveted is because it's great work. Not because it's older work. Music is the same. Basquiat, to me, was really the end of it. No one on that level or even close has come along since. I've said it before, art is now either merchandise or gimmick. Different doesn't mean good.
The original comic book artist that Lichtenstein stole from was Hy Eisman. Let's make sure we give credit where it is do. Lichtenstein was a thief. I have no respect for him nor the jokesters that piggy off his back. Ridiculous to give that guy credit for being an artist! He didn't create the originals nor come up with the style of drawing. Absolutely absurd!
My reaction to the works shown is that they are talentless, meaningless junk, and they bring to mind the old saying that a fool and his money are soon parted.
why didn't you ask that woman, who was always in the shot, to leave the scene? I mean we are trying to see the exhibition and she is always flickering in front of the camera, this is not cool.
Please stop zooming in on paintings. When you ate in a gallery do you just see a glimpse of whole painting then see chopped up segments of? That people have this ever zooming camera makes a lot of people nauseous. I can't stand the camera work. Ruins viewer enjoyment.
OMG ... you are waaaaaaay tooo woke for me sister...... give it a rest. everything wrong with art and Newyork all in one White Cube. Soulages is great though.
I really love your videos. I am an artist Santa Fe NM. Can’t always afford to travel and see what’s happening. You do a great job of showing and talking about the work without being overbearing with your opinion. You should come here on vacation and do a video. Apparently we are #2 or 3 in the art market world.

Thank you so much for your wonderful videos.. I love it all and greatly appreciate your commentary, videograhy, titling and links..
I am LOVING this channel to see all this beautiful art. Hopeful someday I may have my own work in a gallery
Keep it up Mary! Love your video tours.
Beautiful 💙
All is well when I experience your Video Art Gallery visits. Thank You MLB! Keep safe and look Both ways crossing those NYC streets.
Abstract art is truly great, and rare.
Fabulous tour. I would have loved to see the piece that all we could see what its backside and his signature. What was on the face of it? Why was it hung in this way?
Very well done

I moved to New York City recently. Thanks for this video. Adding these to my list of places to visit.
A fabulous job as always. Thank-you mary Lynn.

As someone who works predominantly in black, I really loved the Soulages exhibit. (I’m not going to get seven decades in, though.)😃
8:08 showing the back canvas is interesting.
Love.
Pierre Soulages !!
Very few arts are admirable.
I often wonder how much of this art gets sold because I couldn't have some of this in my living room. (i.e. 3:50)
Cool, I’m in Berlin for my exhibition at Künstlerhaus Bethanien. I was referring to your past Berlin vid for ideas on where to go. Do you have any other recommendations beyond that regarding galleries? Thanks:))

It was a photograph of a crane that he collages in. If you google “robert rauschenberg crane” you can see a few of them
Ah! Apols! I heard Ryman not Rauschenberg! Thanks for the clarification. For a moment I thought I’d been missing out on a significant dimension of RR’s work😂.
The McIntyre's were definitely school of Kitchell (Peter) from the 80's!
i LOVE Aaron Curry!!!
If I went to a gallery and this was the art I saw, I would be upset. Until Emma came in at the end and saved the day.
In your opinion, what determines the actual worth of the art? Is it the galleries in which they are displayed…the demand…the powers that be?
I do try to be open- minded. Sometimes it’s difficult when I see a totally black canvas.

You should see my paintings 😂

No one on that level or even close has come along since. I've said it before, art is now either merchandise or gimmick. Different doesn't mean good.
Absolutely astounding...an art show that is absolutely artless.
Would you like some pretty landscapes or maybe a really realistic portrait?
@@albinobeachI prefer to do no imagination with my art thank you very much
👍
TY:MLB
Me acaban de mandar un mensaje que habrá un link de tu página y me pagan 60 pesos 😂😂😂😂
Once you "explain" art it is no longer art...it is now merely "show and tell."

All artists steal.
most famoust artist?
It's most famous artist
My reaction to the works shown is that they are talentless, meaningless junk, and they bring to mind the old saying that a fool and his money are soon parted.
