Das hier ist übrigens das atemberaubendste Bild aus der Sammlung #Brandhorst, Odeion von Cy #Twombly. Ich möchte hineinkriechen.

Die einzigen Bilder, die mich ähnlich berühren, wie die Werke von Twombly sind die Gemälde und Zeichnungen von Egon Schiele.

Staring a #substack to focus some writing on art: my first post is thought on #Twombly and making #art in the vicinity of giants.

CONFRONTING TWOMBLY

Artists, especially painters, always have other artists that they are thinking about and reckoning with, the ones whose books get pulled from the shelf in idle moments, who are never far from their thoughts when they’re in the studio. As a painter interested in gesture and process who employs numbers and stencils in an investigation about language and ordering I would routinely be asked about Jasper Johns. The first time it happened, my mind went blank. I hadn’t thought about Johns at all. I was thinking about Chrstopher Wool or Glen Ligon or those great early and underseen Jannis Kounellis works. Roni Horn’s materialization of Emily Dickinson, David Diao’s cataloging of Barnett Newman. Al Held’s alphabet paintings. Johns. Of course. Duh.

Artist's Annotations
Latest in my occasional series of serendipitous abstracts, I seem to have done a small #Twombly on my easel. Enjoy!

Today I had my painting lesson "only" in art history and theory and we talked about works of Yves #Klein, Cy #Twombly, Joan #Mitchell, and Jean-Michel #Basquiat.
Personally, I prefer the first three, but Basquiats art is extraordinary wild and vivid. A pity that he died so soon.

About Klein: I'm a sucker for deep blue :)
