Can't believe I found this and I subbed right away after watching it, fantastic and knowledgeable commentary much appreciated!

I admire Frank Stella's discipline as an artist... He is very fine tune when it comes to detail and executional purpose...

Thank you for making this video. Allowing an opportunity to view closely many works by Frank Stella. Thank you once more.

Love this piece and the commentary. Traveled to NYC, from the provinces by Amtrak to see this, also Picasso. First time in 15 years. Stella has been a favorite of mine for decades. But I prefer the earlier stuff. The high-tech Baroque stuff was overwhelming.. maybe I was tired. On the same day, I saw Morandi at David Zwirner (sp?). For me, those small, exquisite piece blew Stella away. It was an enjoyable trip.

One of your best, with your comments about history and movements adding to my amazement over this artist whom I thought I knew.

James Kalm - I think your reportage process is something new.

Another great tour/ report James Kalm! I appreciate your insight as always.

Very cool arts Thank you for sharing I enjoyed it watching 🎨🖌👋

Love the natural wood piece (22:06-22:53). Quite true, your comment that other artists could base an entire career on variations of this concept. Frank Stella though - so many ideas, so little time... a blessing and a curse. We are left wondering where he could have taken this - what permutations would have emerged had he not been so creatively restless, so eager to move on.

I loved this review of the show. I went to New York for one weekend just to see it.. Took closeup and angle shots with my camera and iPhone also. But loved your reviews and history attached to it. I spent all day at the show and was just in awe. Thanks for this.

Thank you James.

thanks I love your insights. also love the street music and the initial out of breath intro.

Thank you Kate.

Fantastic Show!!! Thanks James

Thank you. More, more, more.

Great tour, thanks!

Thank you for this video - really interesting!

These works are amazing. Stella is about as far as you can get from a painter like Gerhard Richter, and also from the kind of discursive and conceptual art practices which today dominate the scene (at least the institutional scene). Whereas Richter is all about applying a consistent method (squeegee) to arrive at a kind of general effect, Stella's works are all highly differentiated and particular. It is the idiosyncratic and radically specific emphasis of his work which has put him up against the current scene. Richter's output is no less prodigious than Stella's, but the emphasis of his work is on seriality and sameness. There are differences within the serial works (the Cage painting for example), but the differences don't really matter much: the details in the work are an accidental outcome of the technique he uses to manufacture the work...a little red here, a little burst of yellow there...the particulars are interchangeable and entirely subservient to the allover effect of the whole. What really counts in Richter is abstraction and sameness. Stella, by comparison seems to throw absolutely everything in the pot, and then use every means at his disposal (drawing, painting, shaping, composing, manufacturing, thinking) to try and resolve all the different parts, all the different parts and moments of the work into a convincing whole. He always risks failure and chaos in a way that Richter never seems to. But the results are so much more interesting.

Embarrassed to say I missed the show, so an extra thank you for your coverage and insightful, informative commentary!

Thank you Jim and thank you Kate

James ur the best , thanks for all this

Thank you 🙏

Esplendido, fantástico, maravilhoso. Poderia só se aproximar das obras, mostrar mais os detalhes. Parabéns!

thanks for the report

thank you for video of event---WORTHWHILE!

Great coverage of an awesome show! I'd love to see a collapsing-of-gender group exhibition that challenges what is thought of as male or female art, energy, color and aesthetic a la Elizabeth Murray, Stella, et al. Break it. Down. Forever.

Das Erdbeben in Chili is a german novella by Heinrich von Kleist, in case you were wondering

Thanks x

Great! Thank you!

yep thank you, indeed no fear to mix hitec kitsch with old rust

I refer to Frank Stella as "King Kong of the Lobby Painters"...

monumental

Wonderful

wow!!!

Why does James always sound " out of breath " He is standing there almost motionless, yet sounds like he has climbed four flights of stairs.

Nice video. I suggest you check out Dan Flavin. One of my favorite artists.

Stella fun to look at once but that's about it.

super

You should use manual white balance.

Too rushed this one James, some beautiful work here and no stopping.. shame..

frank was so overly influenced by the protractor and ruler - he will never amount to anything

Die Kameraführung schrecklich, der Krach und diese fürchbare Stimme...👎👎👎👎👎👎

Algunas obras son espantosas.

You should use manual white balance.
