Painting With Words
"That’s such a real feeling, and something we don’t often see in a work of art, Ms. Elsayed said. We see the prizewinning piece — not the nagging insecurities that may have accompanied its creation."
“I’ve always been a writer. The written word always comes first when I’m doing a painting,”
When Artist Create Flags
"The project was officially launched on Flag Day, June 14th 2017, by raising the Resist Flag by Marilyn Minter on Creative Time’s headquarters – a flag that embodies art’s ability to channel political passion, raise awareness and unify."
"Going beyond performance, Rirkrit Tiravanija creates socially-engaged conceptual works that blur the boundaries of art in new ways, bridging the gap between public and private."
The Cindy Sherman Effect
"What has she herself discovered through her work? I think it has made me realize that we’ve all chosen who we are in terms of how we want the world to see us, she says."
"And by limiting her subject matter strictly to herself, while at the same time excavating countless permutations, she inspired a generation of younger artists to explore their own identities across a range of mediums."
Susan Sontag On Photography
"What is written about a person or an event is frankly an interpretation, as are handmade visual statements, like paintings and drawings."
"Both the order and the exact time for looking at each photograph are imposed; and there is a gain in visual legibility and emotional impact."
