Wonderful! I feel that I just fell in love with Soulages' art and thought. Thank you, Perspective.

This is a true art documentary, not just fact and figures, but succeeding in getting across some of the intangible aspects of what Soulages's work, and art in general, is all about. Thank you for taking such care.

I have seen Soulage's work in Paris in 1966. I am just now seeing this documentary at age 80. Delighted to have stumbled upon this 'Perspective'. Excellent.

I loved that comment on the random bounce of a rugby ball and how the artist is engaged in a process where he can't predict the outcome if he is actually to create. What an amazing array of highly intelligent comment from many different fields of study too!

WONDERFUL! Thank you Perspective. I attended art school for a while. I don't recall ever being introduced to Soulage. I'm grateful. I want to visit his museum in his native hometown. I don't like to admit that the commercial interest of Google could have suggested such a perfectly satisfying video introduction to this great contributor to the field of Art - but its Google, or the ghost in my machine.

Soulange enjoys the process and rolls with it - that's great! I have always liked the texture of acrylic paint, using it to build up a design on a flat canvas. But I love color and consider black a tool for creating a darker color.

This is so weird because I am creating some paintings which exist of black pigmentation and then not looking I came across Soulages work never heard of him before today and whala! I see how he uses black which has only lead me to reinforce my black paintings. What a wonderful artist he is the perspective has given me more perspective. Thank you I am pleased to have discovered this wonderful artist by chance.

Thanks for this! I was not familiar with his art before. It amazes me the people on here saying this isn’t art. To quote Debussy “Works of art make rules, rules do not make works of art.” The whole idea of using black to reflect the light is a really cool way to express one’s self. Which is what art at its core is about, self expression

I've always found this kind of art is so empty. without endless verbal support by art critics, intellectuals, and art historians, the visuals remain so boring and meaningless . so much said about nothing much at all.

And you caught yourself at one point looking at one of his works for some time if not longer than others trying to understand how it was done. Even some of the kids seem to be sensitive and amused by his work and by the live camera, too. It is, so no reason to deny or dismiss it carte blanche. Looks easy but difficult to do. Try it ...

@robertaccornero7172 2 жыл бұрын

try it? I've been painting and creating art since 1960, I've got a B.A. in Art History been a very successful illustrator and art director for over 25 years in NYC, I create art everyday.. so yes I have 'tried it'...It's just my opinion, but this is some seriously boring 'art' , which always FAILS on it's own without the support of psuedo intellectual attempts to make it into some thing which it is not.

@twinwankel 2 жыл бұрын

I like the textures in the art but I can't say that it's art at all. It's much like the fascination of seeing the mixing of a bucket of paint with multiple colors or looking at the textures on the side of a rocky mountain. I think most 20th and 21th century artists try so hard make the art world notice them that they fail to produce anything remotely artistic. And it's funny what you can pass for art in a gallery if you surround the pieces with blank walls. There's really nothing to compete for your attention. Anyone willing to pay big money for these works is also totally caught up in this artificial art world and has very little idea of what great art really is.

No offense intended, but all you had to say was "This sort of thing doesn't work for me" - and not slam people, collectors, and museums which DO appreciate it. Best wishes from Vermont 🍁

@twinwankel Never fails to at how willing people are to expose their stupidity for all to see. Your "opinion" is worthless. It's your prerogative to like what you want but you are only exposing your ignorance by criticizing something that is highly respected by people who know what they are talking about. Grow up and learn to keep your mouth shut.

@geniusmarketing08 6 ай бұрын

Art is about self expression and how we see the world and how we engage with the world through visual means. Everyone has the right to their own views of what art should be or shouldn’t be but I don’t think it’s fair to slam the life work of an artist just because that’s how they want to communicate in their own individual way. Many artists and non artists do think this is fine art myself included.👍🏻

So refreshing to stare at pitch black canvas’s loaded with tar. Beats that nonsense involving colour which beastly digital has taken to be its own property. Takes me back to well imagination, to the era of tone and monochrome photography, to nostalgia, that land of forbidden fruit, to printmaking…,,

Talk talk talk. My bogus art alerts flare on when I hear nonstop blather instead of just showing the art. It’s a big red flag when people talk endlessly, especially those who have money to gain by promoting certain art. I wouldn’t give a nickel for nearly all of what passes for art criticism, and certainly the worst is when the artist is the one flapping their gums. Incidentally I didn’t see much good art here.

You exercise your right to post a comment, and in doing so reveal your ignorance and insensitivity. Many like to reduce their ignorance by learning, hence documentaries such as this. You of course have the choice to remain ignorant. But those who make such a choice are usually already dead inside.

@@timconstable7348 Alright, you do things YOUR way by buying into this nonsense hook, line, and sinker. Speaking for myself, I have already done a good bit of learning. I have two degrees in this area, including Ivy League. I have won lots of top awards in art. I have studied with a large number of top art professors. I have worked with world-famous artists. I have studied with some of the most knowledgable and prominent art historians. I have shown my own art in many prominent venues including museums. And, my work is represented in many important collections and a growing list of museums. But, I fully realize there is zero point in "credentializing" myself to the Peanut Gallery.
