There's nothing to get. When you look at the ocean do you say I don't get it? When you see a tree and the sunlight dappling through the leaves do you ask do I get it? It is just something to look at. Luckily, many of these paintings are large enough that you can get lost and just looking at the texture, at the colour, at the way light is reflected upon the surface. As with any object it's just there to be looked upon so it helps you contemplate. If there was something to get then you would have already gotten it. I hope this helps. Even if it doesn't I hope your day goes smoothly and that you and your family remain safe.
The subject of his art is you looking at it and seeing how it looks. When you look at a solid red rose (flower), if you enjoy that kind of thing, and find it amazing...are you "getting it?" You see many details that can be enjoyed. In the same way, Soulages' paintings are each different, with different things going on. If it is unfamiliar to look at something in this way, that's natural because it's the first time. Time is what you are spending with that flower, so give art that same amount of time and I promise you you'll discover something wonderful in it, and maybe even *in yourself*.
Black is the absence of light. This is so negative and is not enlightening. It has no uplifting feeling. It is terribly dull, I could not stand to look at it. It's like being inside a dark closet.
I totally agree , why else would he be able to still paint @ age 100 ? Only found out about this pompous , insult to average intelligence 2day since he passed away , but anyone in possession of some black paint could replicate any of his "work" ..
LOVE when you focus on stories like this.
They are like fresh air in a world of corruption that we are forced to breathe!

Where's the art?
in the eye and heart of the beholder.
Art takes active work to discover. Not a job for passive observers.
A white artists “discovers” black paint. Wow. Mind boggling! LOL.

hes painting the light kent
If it has to be explained then you won’t understand
Imagine painting with a material to create a visible result, not from the material itself but the reflection it creates….. genius
his art has no talent
Hopefully nobody pays money for this crap.
Terry O'Roark... what museums have you visited?
Think a bit before you push send. Don’t you think?
Why so mean?
