Arshile Gorky: The Eye-Spring

[@TempusEst]

As a Turk, I respect Arshile Gorky a lot. Just like any past and present artist, he deserves a praise.

[@irinater-ovanesyan2210]

I am Armenian. I just realized that Gorky is Armenian, I really liked his work that I saw in the US museums, perhaps because of it. Great paiter, beautiful Armenian soul.

[@hrashqdav]

I was looking Arshile Gorky's works in New York main museums, and recently In Washington DC National Art Galleria and Philip's Collection..... All of them have Gorky but not a single display. Everywhere I was asking WHY you don't have on display. Only one answer made a sense to me, " maybe he don't have a sponsor ". So pity, I didn't have time to visit the abstract galleria. Hope next time to enjoy his Art.

I loved this. It was beautifully made. I could look at film like this one all day long. Very nourishing. THANK YOU!

[@reddiver7293]

Thank you. A really wonderful documentary about an extraordinary artist.

[@StephenRCar]

This is an amazing story. Mostly untold in the art history lectures. The most telling part at first watching was the bit about the farmer cutting the grass. "it broke his heart, he was slugged again." This is an artist. The intensity of experience- of interaction is complex and mostly unfathomable. "Slugged again." Few of us even know what that must mean and yet- it is the province of most artists. Thank you for this documentary.

Well said Sir. This man saw everyone thru his soul. There was no obstacle. When a person suffers as much as he did. One has two choices only. Keep the suffering all the way till you die or search for the beauty of life even in the smallest sightings.

[@StephenRCar]

@@ivonned32 Thank you!. It was just so poignant, amplified by the fact that Gorky was but a passing footnote in a survey art history lecture. I learned later that art history is built from the stories- stories of every artist and every art work. They are mostly lost in then :"facts" teachers put forth.

i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.

@Maverick Graysen Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@LeonardKubo]

A wonderful documentary. Thank you.

[@johnfeliceCeprano]

I was very fortunate to learn about Ashile Gorky in my very first art class; the professor liked my work, and said it reminded him of Gorky; I love his work still, more than 50 years later. An absolute un-compromised genius. Thanks for the insight on his relationships to other artists, deKooning in particular .. Many Thanks

[@chineainguanzo6341]

Great artist, great artists are temperamental ,sentimental ,and spiritual .

[@mathstar4176]

Oh yeah Gorky is back on the map, Art reveals mystic truths !!

[@______9322]

Excellent video!!! Gorky was one of the greatest modern painters. His wife has a very interesting personality.

[@TheQuantumStar]

I studied with a pupil of Arshile Gorky who worked at his studio in New York....Will always remember: The last Statement on a long banner across the studio: "Goodby my Beloveds.." Arshile Gorky passed by suicide. But recollections of stories of Gorky and his art...beyond description...a kind, lonely man...

[@latetodagame1892]

I love Gorky. What a tragic life!

[@ivonned32]

Wow what an inspirational great Artist Gorky is and will always be. Thanks 🙏

[@vrejtamazian524]

[@frankchineainguanzo2850]

He is a favorite,as an artists i can relate to him .his wife is also a personality .

[@JoseLizasoain]

Great job! Nice video with a natural look out of the regular sofisticated videos from galleries. Gorky's wife is very impressive, a real elegant lady. Congratulations

[@zenoist2101]

The natural halo he carries around with him when lying and cheating looks good . It must have been a tricky shot for the photographer waiting for it to appear.

[@TM-Yan]

Sadly, she left him for another artist...

[@JohnDoe-ps6dn]

What a beautiful story ❤️

Gorky è stato un pittore eccezionale

[@unbroken1010]

Great

[@volobevza5896]

Why monetize this video?? So disturbing ads!

[@kevinchaiken4253]

I love how his wife calls him Gorky

[@vatchesolakian6361]

She has a hidden resentment of him until today , and alot of guilt on her own actions leading up to his suicide .. that's my feeling anyway.

[@elizabethhurtado2829]

[@marcusbrown198]

It’s sad that a lot of great artist who produce magnificent work are assholes. I kind of understand and I am suspicious on how his studio burned down.

[@TM-Yan]

there were many envious concurrents who wanted to destroy him.

[@gardensofthegods]

Please can you tell us anything more about this -- ?

[@marcusbrown198]

@@gardensofthegods I’m sorry my responses late but I hardly ever respond to anyone but is my opinion that we as humans are gonna fight . During that time artist were celebrities and they had battles. Just like today Republicans versus Democrats Bloods versus Crips gangs . LA Dodgers versus San Francisco giants. Kat Williams versus Steve Harvey. Blacks versus whites. Mother-in-law versus mother-in-law. And by your title I guess you’ll understand Kane versus Abel.

[@gardensofthegods]

Marcus , i am sorry because i directed my comment to the person after you and i guess i should place my comment to them now .

"The liver is the cocks comb" is the greatest painting from Abstract expressionism.

[@rutbrea8796]

He had quite an imagination, the imagination of a child.

[@TM-Yan]

exactly - the imagination of a child

[@andybaldman]

How is his widow alive in 2019? When was that footage filmed?

[@renefranco8966]

i believe the footage of his widow is from the 2011 doc by Cosima, "Without Gorky." Really incredible and gorgeous & on Netflix. Highly recommended
