Thank you for the video. I find the policy of no videos in museums very frustrating. Some guards take the policy very seriously others could care less. With almost every other person with a digital camera or camera phone snapping away many using flashes I find it unfair. Have you considered a tripod ? The Met lets you use tripods with permission. Loved this show and Martin Puryear and I thank you for the record even if I did feel a little seasick after watching it.
michaelkahn, Yes I've thought about a tripod but the point of the "Kalm Report" is to capture the art world unaware, no time to rehearse or phony things up. Nothing intimidates and changes the attitude of those being recorded faster than a big camera with lights and tripod. Nearly all the Museums I've been in have a no tripod policy.
The 'wrecking ball on crane' piece is also very biomorphic, stongly resembling a kushed camel, or South American camelid (such as a llama or alpaca), obviously notsuperficially, but in the structural presence of the piece and its structural feel.
I'm running all over town on a bike, no way to haul boxes of equipment or props. When I show up at these events many times they won't even allow still photography so I have to go on the "low-down". Don't worry, if you keep watching you'll get your sea-legs, thanks JK
Thanks for the showing. Great that you got Puryear himself on video.
Thanks for filming. I know this was an while ago.I am looking at his work..

Thanks for doing this James. Great show.
Thank you very much James.
Thanks James, great commentary, thought of doing a painting based on the quality of your voice.

wow, my new favorite artist...I can't believe I missed out on this, 3 years passed already.
mysterious precision indeed ..
I like the vid, not 2 b critical but i just want to say, it's "sit-ka" spruce not "stick-a" spruce, isn't it?
