Frank Stella changed Art 

The inclusion of a section on the market is a brilliant addition.

Mr. “what you see is what you see” I still think about that quote 20 years later. Thank you Stella for all your life’s work. Always inspiring, from the 50s stripe paintings til his last 3D works. I didn’t like neon color in art until I saw a large assemblage painting of his from the early 80s that was up at the Centré Pompidou. There was a hot pink cone graphic sticking off the corner of the work, that was odd, almost offensive that it burned into my memory 20 years ago.

Master artist painter sculptor visionary he is in my opinion one of the absolute giants of American art

Coming in to the video blind and ignorant of Stella's work, I was just about to dismiss the as not my thing, until I saw the irregular polygon paintings, those are so interesting! and the work kept getting more and more interesting as the video kept going. Really neat stuff!

You do a great job with these videos! The perfect amount of information to introduce us to a new artist ( or gallery). Thank you!

Please keep the Weistling family in mind ; Fantastic channel!

As always inspiring

very timely video - keep you the great work - much appreciated!

Thank you for another wonderful video. When I was a student at SAIC I would spend hours looking at his work, if I remember correctly, they had 3. I have taken the idea of shaped canvases to some of my works and enjoyed the excitement of moving past the typical shape of a painting. Frank has moved us to a new understanding of the "wall" and moved art forward, he will be missed but never forgotten.

What a poignant, but lovely, summary of Frank Stella's life and work. Thank you for this!

Thanx Chris. I was only vaguely aware of Frank Stella but this was a nice overview of his long career. I love his work. Those newest pieces are incredible!

Awesome!❤

Good video. The price of living a long life are all the obituaries you have to read. At Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art the Temporary Space since renamed after David Geffen, during their inaugural show back in about 1985 had a Stella black painting hung at the end of a long passage. Brilliant combination of curating, hanging and art (obviously) as you approached it the glossy black paint would reflect light and appear lighter than the matte 'white' lines. Then as you got near it the reflection would vanish and it appeared as Stella had painted it. This takes three 'good eyes' for this to happen. First, Stella making the painting, then some smart curator at MOCA, and then sharp eyed art lovers. If you want a Stella, get a square canvas, gesso it, leaving it matte. Then with a ruler and a pencil outline the black stripes. Then using gloss black paint (use acrylic - easier to clean up any mistakes.) carefully follow the pencil lines. It's okay to leave some pencil showing along the edges.(Stella did.) On the back paint a big note "Fake." (I've got my art, art of friends -- some of whom are important, and some DIY 'fakery.' If you die and some greedy relative drives all the auction houses nuts trying to get one of them to 'authenticate' your fake Stella, it will cast doubt on everything else.)

Loved this. Subscribed 😉

Great video man, keep it up! Would love one on the Italian architect Ettore Sottsass:)))

Great channel! Greetings from Iceland

Again a nice video!

great video!!

More random video ideas for you : separate videos for each maybe but you could do a video on the backstory of the two major modern art galleries The Gagosian and The Pace gallery.

How weird. I was just thinking about Stella yesterday and then this showed up in my feed and I thought RU-vid had read my mind. Hadn't heard he'd died.

Consider me a new subscriber. Thanks man.

very, very...VERY well done Sir
