Had the privilege to see the Hals show in Amsterdam and was totally surprised that the genre of portraiture (looking at people long dead) could be so moving. He is a spectacular artist, there is no doubt about that. His ability to capture a fleeting moment, a smile for example, and he shows you not just one smile but so many different smiles, is extrodinary. Art critics have no idea how difficult it is to capture that fleeting moment so convincingly in paint. He's a magician and of different rank compared to modern painters. He really captured a living person for centuries to come, can Katz pictures for example do the same? And how modest he is about his magic, it is about his sitters, sometimes the poor and mentally disabled, the children and outsiders, what is a Picasso portrait about? About himself in the sitter...

Had to give this a thumbs down, stick to Hals and not the promotion of modern shallow rubbish. Unsubbed.
@orange1599-u1n2 ай бұрын
Jones is an awful critic looking for attention, Hals is a great painter of humanity. Do not confuse Hals with the photographic copying that is done today. Hal's is all about drawing with the brush, translating reality.

I thought the mention of the subway drawing guy was to make the point that illusionism is shallow? Also this dude has his issues with art critics so quite apt for the video, haha. D’angelo’s video on that issue is very good: kzbin.info/www/bejne/epPKc3qne5eqY8ksi=G_rbWRRIJ_rGUZoA

JJ isn't worthy to clean Hals' brushes… Found his review sorely lacking when I came across it originally, so I was heartened to see such a well-considered, thoughtful rebuttal. Kudos!

Calling Sargent shallow is where I check out. You only need to look at his portraits of friends and family to see depth or speculate on the portraits of sitters he didn't like very much. He brought out more of their depths than they probably liked

I've read some pieces by Jones that I vehemently disagree with, some that I wholeheartedly agree with, and more than a few that didn't much move me in any way. He does often seem to be needlessly contrarian. Anyway, great video. I've always loved Hals and his jolly subjects and didn't know that he produced exclusively portraits - I guess that's why he was such a master of faces. And I'd never paid much attention to the hands of his subjects, I'll definitely do so from now on, thanks for pointing this out!

They talk about the necropsy from a modern perspective. Back in the day everyone was much closer to the harvest of their food, so getting hands on with the anatomy study was less grisly to them than it seems to us. I hope i said that in a fairly mundane way but still make sense??

When I was old enough to consider such things, I always thought of the Roadrunner as being the trickster, evading, thwarting, turning the Coyote's (i.e. society's) traps back upon him. His use of the #8 isn't so mysterious either. I had never heard of him before. Good video.

Love how the music also changes it's frequency and pitch. I assume it's changing the delay time for a tape delay?
@paintingnerds5 ай бұрын
There's a mixture of using the pitch bend, and a vibrato/modulation effect. A lot of the sounds for this video were made using a plugin called S.K.Y keys if that sort of thing interests you! - Sam

This 'review' is incredible. It is an excellent jumping-off point for a lovely and thoughtful read (and introduction to Miyoko Ito's practice). Many video essays on painters/art focus on a good essay with some good visuals. This essay is not just thoughtful; it is profound. It delves deep into Ito's practice, offering an enriching read. (I am thankful it is a video, tho~!) Including many of Ito's works (all credited, by the way!) and then using those works in conversation with other painters, films, and other visual media detritus really makes this transformation. Together with production values, it is terrific. Everything sings and combines to create a beautiful symphony for Ito. Thank you.
