Celia Paul & Hilton Als talk

[@intheeyesofmany4111]

It's such a joy to see her laughing, to see the love and support she is receiving. She is a giant and a treasure, and it seems to me like she was unfairly and irresponsibly neglected by the art world early in her career. I have such immense respect for her that she stood resolute for so many years in her perspective as an artist, even as it was looked over by the institutions around her. That she stayed in that space despite immense pain, so that her career could continue in the direction she saw it moving, not in the direction others projected on it. Thank you Hilton Als, thank you Victoria Miro, and thank you Celia Paul. I hope we are lucky enough to see many more movements in her oeuvre, and that she might be free.

I've fallen in love with Celia Paul and Hilton All. I look forward to seeing more of her art, and am reading Self Portrait. She's a wonderful writer too. .

I only heard about her on Radio 4 this morning so I'm here to learn more.

Celia has a wonderful girlish laugh. I so admire her single minded approach to being an artist. even to the extent that she made the decision to allow her mother to bring up her son Frank in his early years. I found her autobiography a wonderful but at times painful read. It seems this is a choice women artists must make.

can't stand her paintings - she's trying too hard to be miserable... and then it becomes too sentimentallly unneccessary...she shoud try to have a life

[@galas062]

shhhh

[@kriddz]

yeah I was thinking that actually, the paintings aren't up to much really.

[@awalker4135]

what's a life?

[@denisehay8895]

I get the impression that she has a very rich inner life. That is surely 'having a life'?
