Thank you James. 15:08 minutes well spent watching. Love the artist's color selection and how the composition just follows it. Or maybe it is the other way around. But that is the sequence I saw.
Thank you for this introduction to this painter . As always your reports are full of real observations and side comments that hit the mark. Please be careful on your bike thesedays . Regards from Down Under.
Hi James, just looked at the sideshow gallery website and notice that echoes of Fred Gutzeit work in Matt's pieces, particularly with the colour frames and borders. Review a couple of your films with Fred, the Lee show and Fred's opening at Sideshow. Like his work, I agree that his true paintings are strong and he has a very nice sense of colour composition. Thanks James and Kate. Chris
This one is a yes for me... a young(er) artist I assume, new to me. I agree with the supports surface reference... freedom with material and structural honesty is clear. How about a comparison with someone like Ed Moses as well? It came to my mind. A good pairing with that young guitarist at the opening as well.
The more complex pieces (of the "Hocket" ilk) are strong pushers of geometric and emotional esthetics. Good to see some new work the respects the fact that fine art is visual.
I notice that there is a kind of "strange formalist painthing" school going on. I can think of a german young artist, Thomas Seibitz. I like, it has freedom and they are not afraid to thake chances. Thank you Kate! Here from Rio again
Thank you James. Fabulous show.
Really enjoy your video's
These are the best art videos available despite the wobbly camera work...a real art lover's view.
So much respect for your robust library !! I'm almost thinking how the great Stanley Whitney took over that space.
Thank you for all your hard work of giving us the chance to see all these amazing art galleries.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge and love of art with us!

James Kalm knocks another one out of the park. This work made me sit up and take notice. I will remember the name Matt Conners. Color me impressed.
A great show. This is the second time I've sat through the video.
Liked this show alot. I hadn't heard of this painter before will now go and check him out. Thanks James
Really enjoyed this exhibit. Eye-catching work!
Great work, thank you for the experience. Great paintings!

Love these paintings and love your videos James!
Nice show. Enjoyed these quite a bit and the colors were great.
Great work! Enjoy watching your TH-cam reviews. Plunkett
"Yet to be titled" at 11:20--a very nice composition Thanks--worthwhile.
Interesting work. Hanging height of the pieces seemed strange. Liked the use of colour on the side of works. Thanks James and Kate. Chris
Nice colorful work. Much of the work hits me as second gen abstractionist exspressionist .

Thank you Kate, thank you everybody.
Wow. I like this art, big time!
I enjoy your commentary. Thanks.
Rothko also thinned his paint to utilize multiple layers.. 👍🏼
Thanks for the video 👍🏼
Came across him in a book the Forever Now, the other day. Cheers

thank you Kate!
I only came across him in a book Forever now, the other day
love this, am i correct in saying that he shows very few brushstrokes, almost like he used rollers etc...?
A lot of this is "stained" (soaked into the canvas).
Matt may use rollers, or just lays the paintings horizontal and works the paint like water color (?)
Nice!
James I have one question. Do american art needs new blood? Thank you!

Hi Konstantin, so Ok James I'll handle this question. Uhhh, no.
I think you are wrong!
We can vitamins for that. Sunshine helps too.
Terrible busking..
Thank you Kate, thank you everybody.
