Nobody really can admire art unless you see it in person, his work - it glows! I was so taken aback! Beautiful use of colour, I absolutely loved it since I saw his paintings last year!
Wow, epic, all painted in one day! I either do that or paint one painting in a year. Incorporating own shadow into the painting as the artist's presence in the story is awesome. Finding shadows interesting since a child, I had a go at that idea too, once painting the computer screen with all the reflections, it was fun. Thanking to the artist Luc Tuymans for him trying some' new, like he described it, this helps me with a project I had in mind, brainstorming in my sleep, lol. The other day I woke up with completed works in my head and was determined to paint them that day as the colour combination was of divine purity but I got busy and lost the images in my mind (me just being a looser). Gazing at old photographs and new taken from nature, I am working on thumbnails for my future paintings, asap before I loose it. Please, leave a post if you relate to this, thanks.
I don't think the interviewer is arse-licking at all. It's nice to see an interviewer with a plain and enthusiastic approach, allowing the artist to talk about the work without too much imposing of someone else's values and tastes. If only more art commentators were the same! As for the artist being too 'self important'...artists cannot work on any piece without some aspect of 'ego' and at least some hope that what they are producing has importance.
Speak for yourself. I've noticed you comment on quite a few Luc Tuymans video. Just because you cannot appreciate his work, doesn't mean others feel the same. I'm curious though, which artists do you enjoy?
Head down to your local art-college on a Monday afternoon. Plenty of artists who can't paint.Your life will be complete. Maybe you can open a gallery? Try and propel them to international fame on a par with the over-rated choices of coo-coo curators. I'm sure it will be really interesting. At least YOU will be satisfied anyway. Always back to the old familiarity of 'If it's obscure,it can't be that bad, so always lard it with pretentious exegesis when faced with a bit of uncertainty', isn't it.
This experience of a painting and a show of paintings is very interesting - and the dialoque between the artist and the artcritic is a different layer - that also can be interesting. And I do agree with the remark of the artist that painting is a very physical thing - that you have to be present with to really experience

yawwwn. apparently the commodification/failure of modernism missed a lot of europeans with black jackets. art objects are interesting when the folks who make them are interesting. that is all. that said. ironically,i like some of his work regardless of being unable to stomach his self importance. sometimes a lack of facility is eloquent.
Its interesting how he bases his art work off of films. In a way its like he's hiding his true artwork I wonder what he would make if he didn't use a movie reference. However my previous statement is totally overthrown by the fact that it's art and any art you create is 100% you.
I disagree and this comment shows that you are close to 0% informed about current art processes (which isn't an attack from my side.) This "the art has o speak for itself"-crap is actually a characteristic of the time before 19th century. The job of the artists has changed: You are standing in public as an intellectual and you give speeches, presentations and take a position. By your statement you totally cut of the potential that an artist has a person that does not only unveil through craftwork and skill, but also by eloquence, rhetoric and debating content.
That`s what I thought, its a visual language why add to it with this arty nonscence and hes so tortured words thing going on too . I thought this way of talking about painting was over , was back in the eighties and the interviewer looking up to him as he was some sort of master painter .This type of idolisating nonsence just doesnt make sence to me . He makes paintings from old Films another word for this is lacking in content .
the work is flat, there is zero spatial qualities to the paintings, that happens when you take photos with your camera and put them into software and adjust the contrast to high, to distill the image to intense light and black... people copying from computer filtered images is becoming quite common as a crutch for those with little skill or imagination..
You jrkoffs whining on 'successful'artist:by yr standard,which is getting ass,$,recognitionLOL.U Exist:yr UTube comments confirm tht.You cld save lives,be kind to others(Luc's goat 4 all yr disappointments in life instead.).Weak-ass anger cld be trnd to other means:revolution,assassination...But no,surplus o wld-be artists,no demand 4 yrs.Take it as a vacation,an avenue toward ANYTHING.Yr move.

notice how the interviewer looks so similar to the artist?
Yes I thought that interviewer is luc tuymans.
So similar ,right？
Yes he does
white people are obsessed with other white people
Good insight into the ways of the great man Tuymens.
despite 30sec advert! WTF. 30sec of my life I won't get back thanks Guardian.
Well, at least he's straight up and direct.

Interesting to explore the depth of his concept. Enjoyed seeing the paintings and hearing the artist discuss his work.
I like very much this work. And admire his insights and thinking about his art and others.

nice comment! More along the lines of what i think when i'm watching art documentaries, etc.

Like a James Bond villain ...
🤣🤣🤣👍
The primary goal of modern curators, jurors, and mainstream art galleries is to keep good art out.
hihihi
Oh cry me a river. Where's this "good art" that you know so much about? Post a link or something, you bitter amateur
@@johnjungkook2721 Well said... typical of the "I could have done that" crowd.
@@MajasDad: Precisely. The comments you are referring to are usually made by people who have never even picked up a brush.
Much more to it than simply dabbing a bit of paint on a canvas !

And I do agree with the remark of the artist that painting is a very physical thing - that you have to be present with to really experience
My favorite 🧎🏻♀️
Am I the only one who thinks he looks like an Italian mafia?
I would much rather watch a good artist that stays out of the spotlight, then watch this guy full of himself, and seeing a bad painting! NEXT!
i agree 100%
i disagree 100%
i disagree 100%
Sam Dillemans is also a Belgium painter but he's the best. You tube sam Dillemans "The madness in the detail" great quotes about life
"They're all painted in one day."
Nice
The most important thing an artist can do is to keep quiet
I was thinking the same thing. lol
What’s wrong with all of u? Why do People think he’s a snob? He’s answering questions...geez.
@@deborahconnolly8949 We are on social media, remember.
Looks like Tuymans is being interviewed by his twin!

He is good
His shadow image is a poor 'lift' of Johns.

"...all being in vain" why bother?
full of himself he is indeed!!!! Utterly boring
Tuymans < Booremans
"All in vain" - Love Luc's approach! Make a problem then try solve it.
He is a bully., Luc Tuymans is a bully. Vain. Best forgotten.
Artists should be sensitive souls. Who are these creepy mafia types?
Visual art that needs verbal explanation is crap.
+DudeNumberOnePlus Agree 100%

You're obviously an amateur. And you're about a century late.
Pretty crappy stuff. Then again, the vast majority of it is.
Interesting person. Quite opposite from the paintings themselves which are dull. Surprisingly boring.
Nice greeting cards for rich people.. This is illustration unfortunately.

You ever heard of Clement Greenberg? Or any art after Abstract Expressionism? Seems like you haven't.
lool, are you aware that it is exactly his point to make his paintings flat and overexposed?
@@julesmartin6972 So true.
Uugghh....relax dude. Lots of bla bla....
how conceited one can be...talking about wasting someone else's time. It's a shame.
ITS art. what are you going to do about it.
