I really love Newman's work and use of creating the illusion of depth and space with his zips. I actually do some painting as a hobby and I'm exploring how I can take these zips to the next step.
I believe anything can be art as long as you explain it to the point people think you are smart. I've done it several times in class now, last minute art response of just throwing paint at some paper or putting holes into a cup and letting water pout out of it. I have no clue what it means but because I made it sound like I did, my teacher loves it. Art is a strange subject, anyone can do it, you literally just need to be good with words and people will love it.
Paige Openshaw you are kinda wrong. Art is not only about words but it's especially about feelings and emotions. When you manage to broadcast your emotions through an artifact, you have performed art.
All tough Barett Newman's art requires practically zero skill, I enjoy his paintings. They give me some kind of feeling of comfort, or calmness. I don't think they should cost 44$ million, but it's an interesting hindsight.
Creating something that is visually interesting and being able to manifest a meaning behind is not art whatsoever.. that is the direct opposite of art.. See your problem is what you're describing does not define the word you're focusing on. Art is expression .. An artist has not only a will but an instinct to manifest emotions and experiences into something that is also visually pleasant to look at. You describe one class in which your teacher was probably completely aware of what you were doing and didn't want to embarrass you, or she was as ignorant as you. What you created was not art, but a piece of the machine of manipulation and fabrication that art stands to defile.
Art is a man made vehicle of communication of unusual aesthetic perception, capturing an essence, and touching the heart, to be displayed, digested, and reflected upon. Whether it is the visual arts, or theatre, or music. An art professor of mine once said, it is the appleness of the apple the artist tries to capture. Schools teach us the sun has to be yellow. It doesn’t. As concerns abstract art, the seemingly simple is actually complex, thought wise. There is a distinction to be made between conception(complex) and execution(sometimes less complex). Newman’s genius lies in the immense beauty of his playing with color, line, texture, hard edge vs non-hard edge, the components of art. Abstract art is reduced, non-objective work, non-representational work.

Ok, thank you. What if I wanted to show an excerpt to a wider audience or even further share it. Do you perhaps know the owner of the rights to this footage? (for future reference)
Vermeer's landscapes have the same impact? HA! Newman would have loved to have heard that......ha! to think that he got the same reaction from a painting that probably took an hour to produce compared to Vermeer's probably taking several days, if not weeks would have given him great satisfaction.

@star 3 But I bet you know nothing at all about painting and don't even think about it...he was a painter...if the corporate world want to usurp his art when he's dead then it's not really his problem is it?? ...it's not like he painted over those Leonardos and Rembrandts that you love so much...and it's not a herd mentality that appreciates art...only 1% of people ever leave their house to go to an art exhibition in their whole life...you are the herd mentality, common sense feet of clay envious and semi-literate masses that feel they have to comment when their simple view of the world seems threatened...yes, you could paint pictures like that, but did you? Did you ever see a Barnett Newman in the flesh? Have you ever been to an art gallery??? Have you ever bought an original work of art from a struggling artist who has not been exploited by the corporate world?? I doubt it. Make America Great Again...support the arts....wonder what your views are on classical literature, architecture and philosophy...love to see you post a video of your musings.
@star 3 That's a beautiful reply and I thank you for that. I don't want to win an argument but I love to help to open people's eyes to the possibilities of art, which, to me, is the most magical thing in the world and although we don't all like the same things at the same time, the existence of different kinds of art doesn't hurt us or diminish other kinds of art. In the 20th century, the world stopped standing still and space travel and nuclear explosions and cars etc made the world a blur of colours and emotions and the camera recorded apparent reality which had previously been the responsibility of artists. We just don't see things until our experience catches up and keeping an open mind and believing in the integrity of artists (people who love money become merchant bankers, not artists) we may get a sudden rush of recognition and kindred spirit across the ages...whether cave paintings or Barnet Newman or Leonardo. I never got Piet Mondrian til I found myself wandering round Rotterdam in the night when it suddenly hit me like a sledgehammer. I've enjoyed our debate and I wish you much joy in your appreciation of art...your own included because your own art is probably the best.

@star 3 Corrupt politicians, bankers, bent cops, poverty, prejudice, cruelty are things that make me mad. Art is like the menu in a restaurant...I don't have to like everything on the menu, but it doesn't bother me if other people like things I don't. I have been an artist since I was old enough to hold a pencil...about 60 years ago, and I reject the gallery system and the money people who want to control what you do and I don't care about money and I love my own work and I don't want to be famous or called a genius...I just want materials to create with and do whatever I feel and if one person likes it, that's fine by me...even if I am that only person and I'm sure most artists would probably feel the same but it's easy to get misled by flattery and money and so many successful (fame fortune) artists become victims and lose themselves. I envy those stone age artists whose names we don't know and who must never have expected their work to be discovered in caves 30,000 years later...pure.
@star 3 Being an artist seems to me like something you can't escape from and I never judge art or think about genius...you just do what you do and it's not to get compliments or give people what they want....all our experiences are unique and Picasso didn't sell any work for years when he stopped giving people what they wanted and poor old Van Goch never sold a painting ever because at that time, no one got it...but there are great artists who you never heard of...theres a great video on TH-cam called Outsider Art...mainly artists in asylums around the world...th-cam.com/video/98RUUhVgLR0/w-d-xo.html...check it out.
His style of dress was so outmoded that it was clearly a knowing affectation. I presume he was reacting to both the bohemian and blue collar pretensions of his post war contemporaries. Leonardo said that painters were gentlemen, and Newman was clearly one of those despite his spiritual ambitions. It was a style that suited him and it lent him a handsomeness that he wouldn’t have had otherwise.
Me: let's focus on what he says about the "zips" in his paintings. Him looking at the zip: so what had I done? what was it? My brain: look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane.
I Like his art, his pieces always have serious presence despite (lets be honest here) it just being a line. (edit: FUCK ROTHCO ALL MY HOMIES HATE ROTHCO)
To all who are calling Mr. Newman a con artist: open your minds a little. Read, learn, think, and perhaps most of all, look. Mass media (television, pop songs, etc.) have taught us that art should be dumbed-down, obvious and self-evident. Whether you like what Newman is doing is almost beside the point; you should at least try to understand it before you dismiss it out-of-hand.
You are absolutely right, I think. Mr. Newman's colossal paintings are breathtaking. Had a friend who visited New York recently, who does not like modern art, but he said they are magnificent in a way that he could not explain (perhaps like most of us). I suppose they need to be contemplated over a long period rather than just glanced at. I'll get there one day hope.
Did you not read my comment? I said "Whether you like what Newman is doing is almost beside the point; you should at least try to understand it before you dismiss it out-of-hand." You have not tried to understand it. I don't disagree with you that video games are an amazing art form that doesn't receive enough credit. But I don't understand why video games and abstract paintings are somehow mutually exclusive; both can be appreciated for different reasons.
Any art that cannot be understood unless the artist himself explains it, according to me, is a pile of dog shit. Because if i ask someone other than the artist, to explain the meaning, they are going to tell me their own over-intellectual, bullshit interpretation of it. And a thousand different people are going to have a thousand different interpretations. As usual. What is the point of a painting if its meaning(expression) can never be certain?
"To be honest, my greatest gripe with such works is the ridiculous price that comes along with his art." And by what tortuous snarl of logic do you associate the artist with the price of the art? Newman died in 1970; he had nothing to do with the fact that someone paid $43.8 million for the painting at auction.
prashams reddy , if the meaning of a piece of art were certain, it would be a street sign or a mystery novel where the ending is given away in the first page.
An important part of modern art is the cunning side of human psychology...and newman is recognised for the pretentious aspect of modern artists...and his paintings are the finest example of an "absurdist transition" in the visual art...
Ok, I can do it, I can script this down for my niece ... * 40 seconds later* HAS ANYONE A SCRIPT?! T____T Ok, Englis isn't my language, but following what he is saying it's quite difficult, moreover if you are asked to write down every single word ... siiigh
@1:23 he takes a big swig of ice-chilled vodka...or possibly paint thinner. i think barnett never got over his beautiful dark hair going white. he was never the same. "paint your bald spot?"
@@chezceleste a few ... and I am an artist myself (not the suffering one though .. I have other sources of income... not relying on this dodgy world of morden art. An art should speak for itself through visual sensory of an observer ... if it needs to be backed by verbal diarrhoea then it is not serving its purpose.
"I prefer to let the paintings speak for themselves." I guess then that he painted over and over and only portraits of a young Helen Keller. Utter non-sense but that is what the art world wanted to achieve back then so I guess you achieved your goals Barry.
Profound statements + a canvas that requires no skill to create x good marketing = multi million dollar 'artwork.' Don't hate the player hate the game.
Thank you for demonstrating the absolute truth of Western man: If I can't see it It's not there LMAO you just showed the world the origins of imperialistic genocide, abortion, and the massive greed shadow of the West That's hard to paint, so Goya did it as etchings Enjoy your clearly highly trained aesthetic analysis
Accidental fatuousness is still fatuous and hilarious Get this man a Greek chorus to justify his ignorance and a clown car to help us appreciate the quality of his thought
actually your totally wrong. mr newman helped lay the groundwork for minimalism and hard-edge painting that dominated NY art for most of the 1960's.....the only thing con about his work is possibly the 'con-fusion' that people might have in understanding the understatement of his subject matter
@Andrew Chong thannks for having spotted this. As Giorgio De Chrico said once about his dreamlike world vision: a part from the technical issues, i do not pretend that everybody finds something touching in my silent compositions. you have it or you just don't have it in yourself, there's nothing you can do about it. I think that this is the real truth, you surely can evolve your tastes etc.. but you need to feel in a visceral way at first, otherwise is just intellectual speculation in my opinion. and i kind of feel this in BN. That said, BN's trait is very clear/net and, being widely repurposed in different contests nowadays (have a look at instagrams minimal art/photos profiles) it seems not that original, but this doesn't mean that it lacks a certain complexity behind but maybe i'm wrong.
@@chezceleste Yeah here is a the recipe. 1. Create some artwork (Can be any ol crap) 2. Live some crazy lifestyle 3. Die 4. Have some Art financier "Discover" the art in mysterious circumstance. 5. Create a massive amount of hype. 6. Watch a bunch of Plebs mouth water over the so called "Art"

@@oceanecastelnau9821 By the way, I like your profile pic more than Newman's art...because I have always had love for the ocean because my family comes from an island and we have beaches. Newman's art...just bores me.
@@aspiknf That is not what I object to. What I object to is the arrogance of the notion that just because one personally cannot read a work of art, it means the works of the artist have no value. That strikes me as arrogance in the extreme, but only if one is not actually the arbiter of the transpersonal dimension that makes great art great art, and also if one is the sole possessor of the full human potential for different modes of perception, their awakening, training, and successful track record of originally accurate and defensible discernment, and the profound spiritual awareness to recognize portraits of reality even when the iconography, though arguaby within the parameters of the Western canon, is unquestionably also brand new.
"Aesthetics is for painting as ornithology is for the birds" I'm sorry but that's a completely false statement lol. A painting isnt a living thing that has its own mind. Its literally created by a person, birds arent created by ornithology. So whether you like it or not you cant detach yourself from a painting as if it was created on its own, your aesthetics create the painting....literally just said stupid crap like this so he could get rich off his paintings. Whether it worked or not we shouldnt idolize him for this, its wrong
Kristian Nunez Aesthetics is a branch of philosophy, as ornithology is a scientific study of birds. Each, being noetic, is separate from the reality of its subject. He probably could have said that the map is not the territory, but it wouldn't be so nicely tailored to the subject of his discussion.
Thank you for putting this video up. For me, Newman took painting to its conclusion. Far and away my favorite artist.

No matter how simple or complex his process was, he did what he loved and the sincerity shows through his paintings.
HOW INSPIRING, A FUCKING LINE
Thank you for demonstrating the absolute truth of Western man:
If I can't see it
It's not there
LMAO you just showed the world the origins of imperialistic genocide, abortion, and the massive greed shadow of the West
That's hard to paint, so Goya did it as etchings
Enjoy your clearly highly trained aesthetic analysis
Accidental fatuousness
is still fatuous
and hilarious
Get this man a Greek chorus to justify his ignorance
and a clown car to help us appreciate the quality of his thought
what a con artist. made rich by the pseudo-intellectual hipsters of his day
actually your totally wrong. mr newman helped lay the groundwork for minimalism and hard-edge painting that dominated NY art for most of the 1960's.....the only thing con about his work is possibly the 'con-fusion' that people might have in understanding the understatement of his subject matter
"you look at it and you see it; and if you don't...." - 4:00
you're
@Andrew Chong thannks for having spotted this.
As Giorgio De Chrico said once about his dreamlike world vision: a part from the technical issues, i do not pretend that everybody finds something touching in my silent compositions. you have it or you just don't have it in yourself, there's nothing you can do about it.
I think that this is the real truth, you surely can evolve your tastes etc.. but you need to feel in a visceral way at first, otherwise is just intellectual speculation in my opinion. and i kind of feel this in BN.
That said, BN's trait is very clear/net and, being widely repurposed in different contests nowadays (have a look at instagrams minimal art/photos profiles) it seems not that original, but this doesn't mean that it lacks a certain complexity behind but maybe i'm wrong.
That can't be your name even though it is perfect for someone with your opinions...though why would anyone choose that as a pseudo?
Terrible artist and the most overrated!
Love to see your work...you must be an amazing artist...must google your name though never heard of it...no...no artists of that name
chezceleste so it’s about having the name not the talent... got it
@@chezceleste Yeah here is a the recipe.
1. Create some artwork (Can be any ol crap)
2. Live some crazy lifestyle
3. Die
4. Have some Art financier "Discover" the art in mysterious circumstance.
5. Create a massive amount of hype.
6. Watch a bunch of Plebs mouth water over the so called "Art"
@@LordDirus007 Just do it then if it's that easy...and plebs perfer ball games and soap operas.
@@chezceleste Why so I can benefit "Big Art"
It's all Corporate manufactured bullsh|t.
Just look at the state of Music. The sh|t all sounds the same.
The "Millennial Whoop"
I am sorry you aren't going to convince me that a single paint line on canvas is somehow Revolutionary in art.
His works are not art period.
The international universal art arbiter has spoken
Please post your resume as international universal art arbiter thanks
@@oceanecastelnau9821 His name is Michael Angelo Sabado and he is a better artist than Newman.
@@aspiknf LMAO next
@@oceanecastelnau9821 By the way, I like your profile pic more than Newman's art...because I have always had love for the ocean because my family comes from an island and we have beaches. Newman's art...just bores me.
@@aspiknf That is not what I object to. What I object to is the arrogance of the notion that just because one personally cannot read a work of art, it means the works of the artist have no value. That strikes me as arrogance in the extreme, but only if one is not actually the arbiter of the transpersonal dimension that makes great art great art, and also if one is the sole possessor of the full human potential for different modes of perception, their awakening, training, and successful track record of originally accurate and defensible discernment, and the profound spiritual awareness to recognize portraits of reality even when the iconography, though arguaby within the parameters of the Western canon, is unquestionably also brand new.
"Aesthetics is for painting as ornithology is for the birds" I'm sorry but that's a completely false statement lol. A painting isnt a living thing that has its own mind. Its literally created by a person, birds arent created by ornithology. So whether you like it or not you cant detach yourself from a painting as if it was created on its own, your aesthetics create the painting....literally just said stupid crap like this so he could get rich off his paintings. Whether it worked or not we shouldnt idolize him for this, its wrong
Kristian Nunez Aesthetics is a branch of philosophy, as ornithology is a scientific study of birds. Each, being noetic, is separate from the reality of its subject. He probably could have said that the map is not the territory, but it wouldn't be so nicely tailored to the subject of his discussion.
Modern art?! This guy was just an house painter. And not a good one. I wouldn't hire him.
His work is junk. I can paint a line too
