Beauty today can be subtle and elusive. It can be found in the LCD sculptures of Tatsuo Miyajima, the subtle light installations of James Turrell or cancer paintings of Damien Hirst. Januzczak, Waldemar goes searching. When modern art is viewed - say, an unmade bed or a pickled shark - it may be hard to see the beauty in it. But is it us, the viewer, that’s the problem? Art critic Waldemar Januszczak thinks that beauty abounds in modern art despite the frequent criticism - we just need to look at it in a different way. Even paintings of human deformity or squares of metal dropped on a gallery floor can move us.

Spot on with Koons "Deep appetite for shallow things" he's a salesman, businessman, not an artist. like Hearst. Anish Kapoor discovered a new blue and copyrighted it so no one else could use it. Complete GREED. Shortly after someone else formulated the same colour with a different formula. It is available to all artists except Anish Kapoor. Edit: reading the comments, apparently he did the same with a black.

I don't agree that it's "us" who have that "appetite for shallow things". It's a market built around speculation and fetishism. The further something sits from any rule mimicking objectivity, the better for inventing its value. I think people get overly angry at people like Koons. Art has enough space for everyone, even the most dull, unimaginative, or unmerited. They're only gaming a system that was already there. Because, let's be honest, who could get offended at someone taking a picture of a bunny-shaped balloon, and commissioning someone to make a huge replica of it? That so innocuous, so insignificant on itself. What people take issue with, is that somehow, we are expected to believe that doing so is worth millions of dollars.

To me there's a vast uncross-able difference between Art & Exhibitionism. What so many modern exhibitionists seek feels like acceptance into or validation by the greats. I'm sympathetic to their need but not swayed enough to embrace performance anywhere near the emotions classical evokes. Usually my first reaction is "That's clever" or "Your joking, right?" Which pales a lot with the deep fascination & awe of human accomplishment I get from classical masterworks. I can't help myself but to categorize the majority of modern "art" in with advertising media & go from there. Simply put, like pop music it's fun to tap your foot for five minutes but ultimately forgettable. I am entertained by their egos though

I think the biggest issue with modern art is how one seems to need a long paragraph explaining the context of the art. All I need to appreciate the classical works in the Lourve are my own eyes, with the modern pieces presented in this documentary, I only gain an appreciation for them after listening to an interview of the artist. Modern art seems unable to stand on its inherent qualities.

Fair enough, have you seen Waldemars fabulous documentary about Jan van Eycks "Arnolfini marriage"? We are fascinated about all the puzzles both in the picture as well as the technical mastery of the painting , but it ain't speak to us immediately. I would call the disappointment of modern art the "I could have done it myself" effect. As if it was some clever scam, impossible to predict and not necessarily evil , but trivial in hindsight. Like the invention of a cheap trick. It is also somehow democratic, not devoid of "inherent quality" but it lacks a quality which sets it apart.

Yoko Ono's "My mom is beautiful" was quite a deep experience though. Giving you a time and space to write a message to your mother, the most dear figure to many people, it's something that many people don't appreciate. The frenziness of life impedes us from stopping and thinking, especially about people who are gone, people who we held (or hold) dear, and sending them a message, even if they won't be able to read it, even of they are only a part of our memory. While watching him write a message to his mother I saw my mother.

Part of what people find objectional about this sort of modern work is not the stuff itself, but its dominance in art galleries, and the price its sold for. How is that worth X million dollars!!? What many are unaware of is that there's a whole field of decorator abstractionists. Many moderately moneyed like the spareness or texture of much contemporary modern art, but don't want to pay those prices or even have the responsibility to care that much for them. In comes the decorator artist. Decorator first, artist second. "Here's a portfolio to look at. What sort of things do you like? We spoke about this space here needing something warm, perhaps red? And something hanging here 4 metres wide and a drop of six." A commission is made, a work constructed, and sold for say six to ten times the cost of materials, plus consultation and wages. If someone falls into it at a party, the kids ruin it, or you get sick of it three years later, just throw it out. "We only paid a few thousand for it after all."

I often dislike real art at first because it is telling me something that I do not understand. Art essay about perception in the language of the right brain. I don't think that the kitsch is art because it doesn't have anything to say. Kirsch is pleasing to the eye and that is all anything has to be. It doesn't have to be beautiful and doesn't have to be art, just nice to look at.

@suzannestryk2623
@suzannestryk2623 Год назад
Waldemar, your insights and creative interpretations are wonderfully idiosyncratic, often profound, and provocative in a personal way. But in this show your comparison of these current artists to past painters [dead animal paintings/Hirst, Tiepolo/Yoko Ono, Canaletto/creator of wall art, etc.], you side-step a huge difference: the artist's touch. In the older work, the connection of eye-hand brush translated onto the canvas with a sticky substance we call paint is an alchemical transformation. So the connections you're making regarding the similarity of subject matter or generalizations about delicacy or texture don't hold water. They sound good, but they don't work. You think we won't know that the important elements of a work of art are not subject matter alone but HOW the work is created along with that subject matter. While I love your personal insights (such as the one about your mother's picture), the show as a whole fails because your premise has serious faults. Better that you choose artists such as Kentridge, Dumas, or Doig to compare with past art. And what is "ugly" about Yoko Ono or Carl Andre or Anish Kapoor's work? Maybe elusive or ambiguous or conceptual . . . but ugly? No. They're even rather elegant. Still, I applaud you for your you-ness and humor, and often depth.

When you use the word "Modern", when you mean "Contemporary", it confuses folks, and they say things like "I can't remember the last piece of modern art I liked!"; then when you say "What don't you like about Monet?", it confuses them further. Their derision is usually reserved for Picasso, those awful! distorted! portraits! because he's when your random worker bee stopped paying attention to "Modern" Art. 'Tis sad, but true. Damien Hirst should have been featured in the kitsch section, as in "The Kitsch of Death"; I unfortunately own one of his murderous pieces; it was a gift, I hate it, I won't sell it because I don't wish to pass along the bad, bad karma. I suppose I should bury it or throw it out, but I don't wish to hurt the feelings of my friend who gave it to me. Dilemma. And face it, Jeff Koons makes high-end home furnishings. Or rather, his "assistants" do. But of course Waldemar REIGNS in art docs; I just wish he'd make some new ones!

I dissent. Much of this is the Emperor's New Clothes. It reflects the religion of meaninglessness of our times. I was at a show in NYC where Yoko came into her long white chessboard. I say came into because clearly she orders a fabrication of elements with her millions of dollars, and it is placed there for her. I spent years as an art mover in New York, and got into nearly every museum, most galleries, met many artists, saw tons of shows. When Sean Lennon came in for the cameras to pose with Yoko sitting at the blank chessboard in her long fetishization of her late husband, it just felt dead. As did most of other empty objects in the group show. (Koons also just hires fabricators, he asked me once if I new anyone who worked with a certain material.) I had just come over from the Thrift Store art show, and the attempts at amateur obsessive art there felt far more genuine than anything in this exhibition. I bumped into a friend. She asked what I thought. I explained what I just wrote. She was shocked and replied 'You know I'm a gallery owner?' Of course I did. But that response suddenly made me realize the utterly cultish nature of the Gnostic imagery of Postmodernism. If you are in the cult you bow. Give me back ornamentation, unabstracted texture, narrative, and most of all deep meaning. As Tarkovsky said about art, ‘Art is born and takes hold wherever there is a timeless and insatiable longing for the spiritual, for the ideal: that longing which draws people to art. Modern art has taken a wrong turn in abandoning the search for the meaning of existence in order to affirm the value of the individual for its own sake. What purports to be art begins to look like an eccentric occupation for suspect characters who maintain that any personalised action is of intrinsic value simply as a display of self-will. But in artistic creation the personality does not assert itself, it serves another, higher and communal idea. The artist is always a servant, and is perpetually trying to pay for the gift that has been given to him as if by a miracle.’

@@kokolanza7543 nee dat is het niet , meer van wat ik eens gelezen heb in de bijbel wat mij een houvast gaf als anker ondanks met gebutst heen en weer geslingerd ,ergens tegenaan gevallen ,moet men toch weer opstaan en de zware koffer dragen, want dat houd in dat hij je sterk vind en je mag best eens uitrusten en genieten want hij draagt dan even voor jouw de zware koffer, want je geeft niet de zwakkere een koffer die men niet kan dragen ,daaruit mocht ik opmaken dat hij mij als sterk zag om een zwaar koffer te kunnen dragen ,zeker valt het niet altijd mee zuchten en klagen zit ook in die koffer ,ik denk ook vaak daar komt hij weer met een zware koffer aanzetten ,waarom altijd ik ? Maar dan realiseer ik het weer dat ik niet de enigste ben die het zwaar heeft maar met elkaar zijn wij sterk dat is wat ook als inhoud zit in die koffer LIEFDE , vraag wat zal dat juffertje vandaag uit die koffer halen ,mijn broer is jarig vandaag hij was een Moederdag kindje ik geef hem een dikke knuffel want hij draagt wel een hele zware last al jaren in een GGZ ( zalig zijn de armen van geest ) hoe blij het mij maakt dat hij een vrijkaartje heeft voor de hemel daar zit een kracht die zo troostend is maar bovenal blijdschap ,ja die emoties die je voelt hoe groot God is maar je moet het willen zien ook de zwakkeren laten ons een gezicht zien van lelijk of mooi het is aan ons hoe willen wij geslepen worden tot een schitterend diamant van het leven oh wat is de kunst van het leven ,om op een perfecte wijze geslepen te worden en goed gekeurd te worden door de diamanten slijper onder de loepzuivere 💎🔍

And as for me this episode rules so far. Although the Dark Ages of Light... I die to know though what that last etheric projection in the back is.. hologram rafters? How? Also: Who?

I’ve always looked as art in everything I see that interested me . When I look at other peoples art it tells me how they see the world and gives me a good idea on who they are . Creativity in people are different but we all want to get the same thing across the thinking part of what someone gets out of it is better than the visual responses. Art has been a love every since I picked up my first pencil and that library book I checked out in 2nd grade using shapes

As one scholar once put it: Yoko Ono is the only artist in history that is not famous for art she created but for the art she has obstructed.

Hi Waldemar. I'll follow you anywhere, but you lost me on this one. I think we're being conned by many of these artists and the galleries that represent them. I'd love you to do a video on the art market, and how galleries and collectors can promote an artist and make huge profits. And as for Jeff Koons, I'll misquote him: "At the end of the day, it all comes down to .....money".

Agreed. Of course there's fantastic modern art. But there's also people just literally shitting on canvas and people WILL find meaning in anything if they look hard enough

Saddo here. No. Not bothered! You didn't convince me as I hung on to every word. Several years ago I was in Venice when the Biennale was on - I go there most years - and an agent gave me a catalogue of art he was selling. We got chatting in a restaurant, I was nowhere near the exhibition. For months afterwards whenever we fancied a good laugh, we would open it and look at a painting. Yes. Saddo.

Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. (whoever said that?) Why has art to be beautiful? Though I admit, I expect of artists, that they are capable of making art that one can recognise. If they can (Joseph Beuys, Picasso and many more) then they can do what they like. Great when Waldemar explains art!
