Grayson is clever and honest person who I find inspiring. I visited his exhibition in Bristol and left with a grin on my face and an admiration for what he does. So. much modern art leaves me cold or questioning whether there is some pretence occurring. He is brilliantly honest about his like of dressing up.
I am a big fan of unusual artists who have fun with art & poke fun at the stodginess of the fine art world. Thank you a million times for profiling Grayson Perry!
I don't want to generalize but I think most ( not all) artists are a bit odd... its what makes them unique . I love Grayson's art along with his brilliant ideas and all his wonderful stories. Very intriguing.
We were given Grayson Perry as an artist to study in art this year, and I struggled to find my ideas in my head as I couldn’t find how I related to the artist, but after watching this video, and seeing the true extent of his art shine through his personality I find myself more in awe of him than I was before. I understand his art a little more now and he is truly amazing.

@@marielemen It does. He's saying that things many of us think are original have already been made or tried before, we just don't remember or try to learn from the past.
His painting on pots is his gimmick ,like his dressing grotesquely as a women is his gimmick ,his actual drawing and painting style copying photos is pretty ordinary .
Doppe1ganger you make me smile, I can’t be mad at you, maybe one day you’”ll realize... it’s art , not engineering where you can make a documentary on feynman ... by contrast the artist is inseparable from his art, it ‘s continuous not to mean that he can’t give interviews to a certain extent but his art will suffer and get tainted if he talks about it too much and objectifies it.. .Anyways the issue is subtle- like explaining a color to a color blind dog -not worthy to be explained over here and i’m not jealous , but very jealous :p !
What are you babbling about 😂 You allow yourself to be condescending towards an artist because he's talking in a documentary? I'll let you in on a little secret, I even get where you're coming from because I once thought like you, more simplistic then I think now that is, confusing a sort of misguided sense of puritanical pride with being a "real artist". This was after i was a child, before i was an adult. You're pubescent my friend. 😉
How long are obviously fabricated comments such as these going to fool the idiots of the world? What’s that?? You think I’m being a “bully”??? Go ahead. Pick any TH-cam video. Read the first 10 comments, repeat… At the end of the day, look me in the eye, and tell me you didn’t notice a pattern. You couldn’t ask for a better example of why democracy is a terrible idea for a population as betarded as humanity. I suppose it’s our own fault for letting the mentally feeble vote. Fun fact: It’s those same mentally feeble voters who are currently casting their democratic gift of a vote in favour of ending democracy. Wrap your head around _that_ paradox!
he is fascninating to listen to. You cant do any of that in London anymore. Give it another 10 years and london will be like one giant top hat floating in the ocean that no one can get to becuase its too sodding expensive.
Uhh, Warhol did alot his work himself and inspired an entire empire including making a record label for the Velvet Underground and inspiring the likes of Patti Smith, Robert Mapplethorpe, Keith Haring, etc. Calling Andy Warhol a twat is calling almost every artist that came after him a twat, including Grayson Perry.
so fascinating: person, ideas, art, thoughts...Art is the only thing that can save the world....personal regrets: did not start art journey - making, living- earlier.....not too much time left.....
@@angiecook4016 Thank you! It is not...but it is.....I did start my journey, btw, but I do not have at least 30 years: to learn, to develop, to fail, to start over, to become rich and famous.....this is it...
I’m almost 100% certain this guys entire MO was to make just enough art to become famous enough to be interviewed, all so he could get that absurd haircut and wear it on camera. His entire life up to now has been one giant performance piece, leading up to this moment.
The child is the meaning of this life.The child is the moon,your body is Jupiter(mercy),your heart the four great Jupiter moons. I cannot teach you HOW to be a son (nobody wants to be 'the son'...)
Its truly work that catches experiences that means something to the artist - the choice of themes and style seem to be very true and honest - and that is truly a cantillation of life = unpredictable coming from “chinise whispers” - very interesting indeed
Grayson Perry's enthusiasm for life is contagious!
He is, without a doubt, a national treasure.

“Mistakes is your style”. Was that what Bob Ross was getting at when he talked about “happy accidents”?
Thank goodness for art teachers and teachers in general who encourage students and plant a seed.
Finally; an artist who doesn't talk out of his arse.
The gift of the fire ha!!! Grayson Perry is so real! His art works because he's honest. Genuinely decent human.
One of the best documentaries on Grayson!

I did not know anything about this guy. What a weird but great artist. Thanks.

It's a shame this only has 40 views.
Now it has 40K
221k!
It’s a shame that so many people waste their time on this.
2 week work of college I haven't done. its 4am im sitting here studying creative process.
Be creative, original, and economically smart....... drop out now.

He is weird, fun, silly but utterly talented,very likable... like theMonty Python series, very British and unique. Admirable!
Thanks enjoyed listening to how his work emerges, its very generous of him to explain with so much detail x

What an amazing artist. Keep up the great work.
his idea that we're collections of experiences kinda goes with the time in the squat
Thank you, Grayson.
Art turns to Gold, artists love Gold, Grayson fires art & turns every glance to Gold who needs history - it is here, i.e.. Hist.ofArt!DGJ.
What a treat!
How many ads, Bloomberg, how many ads?
Thank you for this, it was a revelation to me to get to know this creative personality.
Wonderful. Brilliant.
Great artist!

That does not make any sense !

A gold mine you say.... hmm!
Turner would have been delighted, I am sure.
Could you possibly be able to make a transcript for this video as I would like to reference it in an essay, Thanks.
🔥🔥🔥Awesome 👍👍
Brilliant
14:07 Can someone tell me what kinda computer Perry is using here???
Brilliant 🎉❤😊
... I have a very distinct voice ahahah perfect
'i copy something and get it a bit wrong so that it becomes something new'
They called him ernie.. ;)
did he just mock duchamp hahaha
I like it
Either you love him or you...

This guy is dead wood
You are a talentless see you NT.
Too much bla bla bla but not quality, sorry
Celebrating mediocrity.
A true great artist would not accept documentaries to be made on him while he is still alive...
That's a retarded opinion. Why would a great artist never want to talk about what fascinates him/her.
Doppe1ganger that’s something a dose of clap like yourself will never understand and that ‘s ok ;l
I perfectly understand, you have nothing to say and are therefore jealous of people that do.

Grayson Perry is fascinating. He’s cheeky, intelligent, provocative, and articulate with his words.
Amazing artist, very unique and exciting.....extremely witty, out of the box sort of ideas. Love him!

I love this video and this man - who is just so comfortable being who he is - this inspires me -
yes I can only agree
His books are unique too..
Crazy is what crazy does
he is fascninating to listen to. You cant do any of that in London anymore. Give it another 10 years and london will be like one giant top hat floating in the ocean that no one can get to becuase its too sodding expensive.
Pitiful
what a super nice and crazy human!!! We need more of them! *here I am *** :o)
A genuine interview, stay on sincere ,humorous and communicative
really brillant, unique, plenty of ideas...
I love him
I love Grayson, he makes Warhol look like a twat by comparaison ,,, and he does his own craft unlike Warhol ,,
Stephanie Murray lol!!!!! Love your comment, also agree😁
Warhol was always overrated lol.
Uhh, Warhol did alot his work himself and inspired an entire empire including making a record label for the Velvet Underground and inspiring the likes of Patti Smith, Robert Mapplethorpe, Keith Haring, etc. Calling Andy Warhol a twat is calling almost every artist that came after him a twat, including Grayson Perry.
Do a portrait, that looks identical to the subject, then you can say you’ve an artist. All this modern art nonsense, is not art .
Thank you for this beautiful interview.
wonderful Grayson love your whittness and your art wonderful
Brilliant. Thank you!
i find his work passionate, spiritual, and profound.
you twat !
I like him.

'the most exciting and acclaimed artists at work' - I can't connect that statement with the person in the video.
A Jones LOL
are you sitting behind a piano , or are you just pleased to see me ! ha ha ha
Who is the artist at 26-28 seconds?
he so woke !
I’m in love. So inspired.
yes.
