Incredible work. It's unfortunate most of the "challenges" we are living through are largely self-inflicted, and center around both people's and leaderships lack of vision. The colors and movement are amazing.

Missing from this video is the amount of actual painting and mark-making Mehretu's assistants do on her paintings. Even more extraordinary is that there is such footage online, she seeming more director than painter.

She follows the traditions of the master painters from the 17th century to today. A painter’s apprentice usually learned by doing the less important parts (backgrounds) of a painting before the master painted in the foreground. At some point, the apprentice gained more responsibility until he was doing his own complete works. But the master’s signature always went on the finished piece and got credit since he was the teacher. Nothing has changed.

@@judilynn9569 These are not apprentices they are assistants.. Huge difference. An apprentice is a student. An assistant is a person who is already fully trained. Many of these people have Masters degrees. They're there because they need the money. But you're right nothing has changed since the 17th century. People still need money and those who have it still exploit those who don't.

My reaction to these large pieces is positive and exciting, Julie is eloquent, cogent and openminded. The aesthetic appeal I find pleasurable. As for the negative comments these are for the meant to be abrasive or fatuous and deserve to stay with the commentators.

One of the most important artists working today. Great points made about abstract art's using the colors/forms of life, as well as about "borderlands" as a state of being. Shakespeare's "The Tempest" is strongly associated with post-colonial studies and that sort of tempestuous/in-between/liminal feeling is definitely felt in uncertain times (politically, environmentally, even regarding global health post-pandemic). Ann Carson's great, i'd also recommend everyone read Mary Barnard's translations of Sappho.

While this kind of art leans towards the expression of something that is beyond or opposed to an intellectual understanding, I wouldn’t necessarily say that the context of the work here is completely opaque or non decipherable. The title of the show, Metoikos (a reference to immigration, or a person who has changed homes), how the artist talks about a state of alert and alarm, using references of wildfires, etc., and the implied headspace brought about by a hyper blending of alternative viewpoints and realities that is experienced within the psyche of many contemporary individuals-these all seem to lend themselves to a kind of categorical sensation of unease and confusion. I like how the artist references older, historical forms of mark making, like cave markings, and composites these with applications of screen printing. I think this likely adds a depth (in relation to the idea of a palimpsest) to the overall context of discombobulation. Another interesting reference was the use of the word “neologism,” itself meaning, in terms of psychology, a new word that is coined especially by a person affected with schizophrenia and is meaningless except to the coiner, and is typically a combination of two existing (or, in this case more) words. I think this really drives home the point of the statement and title of this video “It’s very hard to understand what our reality is.”

Dismal And Depressing were her exact words to describe the last few years with Trump. She's just as blurred and confused as her work. That should have been her synapsis... " I'm a blurred and confused person so therefore my works are blurred and confused". She should have went with that angle during the interview to describe the works. You know why???? Because that's the truth of the matter.

I like her thoughts about felt experience. It isn't about hating Trump. She raises that because that political experience created a certain emotional state. Also the idea of something recognizable emerging from and returning to abstraction.

These paintings look like graffiti art from the '80s. Like paintings by Futura 2000... This kind of style has already been made. And other artists have made better versions of this style. This is sad because her earlier paintings were groundbreaking and full of energy, these paintings just look dull.

What A Farce...Lmao. Just Read The Video Description. Too Funny. How The Hell Do You Guys Get All This Pulled From An Interesting Looking Abstract Painting? I Love Abstract Work But When You Try And Tie "Political Views" To It You Lose People. Just Say What It Is....A Beautiful Image. Leave Out The Bullshit About Your World Views. I Know Your Trying To Add Value And Make Yourself Feel Some Type Of Way By Saying This Painting Stands For This Or That. Its Just Not True Though. Makes Out To Be Just Another Weird Trendy Artist. Nice Abstract Works Though. Look Really Nice To Be Honest.

Her early work was dense and riveting, this new work is thin looking and banal. It's also much too big. I think art needs to earn its scale, and these clearly do not. Big for bigness sake is more about market driven work than art. Also, I think it was Matisse who said artists should have their tongues cut out. Listening to her talk, it's what went thru my mind the most. She has interesting ideas, but they just are not being translated into her work. Perfect example is when she said certain colors reference fire. Could have fooled me. Raise your hand if anyone sees fire looking at this work. I don't. She says everything refers to images people already know. No, they look like her own marks. Plus she is not and has never been a painter. Her works are colored drawings. There is a huge difference.

Art has been historically used for political and religious reasons. Many times for both. Definitely not surprising and I'm sure that people will either just remember the paintings for what they are or they will be forgotten like 99% of all art ever made.

Yes, it's impossible when you haven't got the right framework. Marxism provides the only lens to accurately view capitalism through, because Marx got it right - and it ain't pretty and capitalism has not fundamentally changed, and it's not "abstract", though certainly we are in a confusing, extended, perhaps terminal, systemic 'interregnum'. Someone hand her Kapital! The paintings have an exciting, shifting depth which I like. Shades of Kandinsky and Miro for the digital age, echoing and heralding the collapse of the biosphere.
