My favourite painter, it was such a great artist!

[@chiricuttcomepapt5100]

Great attempt at grasping the complexity of Soutine's force, squeezed from the struggle of himself and his subjects. It is a privilege to witness "dirty" matter that convulses itself towards some form of purification.

[@barbaras7143]

Thank you for posting. I don't think we talk about him often enough. He's a brilliant artist.

I have heard, so many art critics giving their insight about paintings, but never as D isgustingg as this. The paintings are so ugly that it makes me want to Vomitttt, these so called art expert as well. If any young painter / craftsman is listening to this video and comes across my comment: Just know, that this is uglinesssss, one with a clear message of subverrtion. These critics are nothing but scummmbaaagzz, promoting the uglyyyy paintings, making you believe that this is GREAT art, the greatest art ever lol. Use your brains and think for urself. Look t the real paintings of talented painters and draftsmen from the 15th to the late 17 Century and try to get as good as them. When you get as good as they were, try to improve. Do not divert from their teachings, instead surpass them with beautiful, truthful, do not let whatever eviilllll comes out of their mouth. Real Good painting, sculpture, music, drawings, craftsmanship = Bueaty=God=Truth. This is what art is. These paintings are good enough to shiiittttt On top of them. No matter how expensive they are selling, no matter which museum is putting them on display. It is just an AGggeeeeendaaaa. A word to the critics of these very very uglyyy paintings: GTH :D

[@itsmeljb]

Very true.

[@ritazita1111]

As a painter, Soutine shocked me a bit the first time I saw his unique art. The intensity and bravery of his vision felt powerful in a way I had not seen before. I love his work, but only can look at it in small doses. Thank you for this video.

No one can explain genius (as this video proves). One can either recognize it and be awed by the magnitude and richness of the work, the reality of the vision or not.

[@andreaandrea6716]

I really like what you've said here. For some reason, it struck me deeply.... I agree, yes... this resonates with me. I think, too, that it often takes societies a long long time to catch up... to be able to get inside and experience what a few are able to see from the outset. Thank you.

[@TIZNYC]

Have been a fan since my first art history course at university in the 80s. Was fortunate to catch an exhibition of his work on the last day at the Jewish Museum in New York a few years ago. Even more vibrant and spectacular in person.

[@robertspies4695]

I was only vaguely aware of this painter, so this film was revelatory. An amazing painter. Thank you.

[@bryantvazquez18]

The first time I ever saw a Soutine was while living in Philly at The Barnes. One of his chef paintings. I immediately understood his work, and accepted as one of the greatest I’d seen. Right there and then I recognized him as one of the GOATs.

I'm a simple man, I see Chaim Soutine, I click. Also, Roald Dahl wrote many macabre short stories (not for kids), and one of which details a man's relationship with Soutine in the form of a masterful tattoo. Another involves gamblers who cut off their fingers for fun.

[@LevManovich]

It’s very bad idea to ask not such great artists to try to comment on the great one. They are not articulate, they don’t know history, and they speak in generalities.. “he had to paint”.. nonsense.

[@BenjaminDurrutti]

It#s a shame!

[@richardlee4730]

I wonder if Soutine was aware of his contemporary Egon Schiele. A similar sense of stress in the vision. I see Francis Bacon in Soutine as well.

[@panicerror]

In watching the video, one thing strikes me: all the interviewed artists are well-off, have a nice studio, and are well-dressed. Soutine was an alcoholic and penniless. There's something off about this...

[@ericchristen2623]

Experiential art shared with the viewer. Very interesting.

[@jennyhirschowitz1999]

I urge you to compare Soutine’s “The Cook” with Robert Falk’s “The Cook in white” …. Page 186, Art Collectors of Russia, Ed. Christina Burrus. Thank you for posting this. Miss Jenny

[@elborbah3045]

2 stories about my family : one painting ( long time ago when the artist was alive and starving ) was bought and forgotten in the train ... And the 2 nd one was the father of my godmothere that saw " something in him and his paintings " , asked for a portrait , but when he came back for his prtrait , dear Chaim had put the fire to his whole paintings . That's ok . I'm fine . But if it was This evil Pablo P. i would have vomited on you until my dying days .

[@pedrorocha9722]

I really have trouble seeing less painters commenting on great painters and ysually verbalizing....crap. What could they verbalize?

[@chriscross7644]

This film is really terrible - I am shocked, that this is being screened in the exhibition. It does violence to the wonderful painter Chaim Soutine, who really deserves better than this: Emma Talbot with her body-denying word-paintery has no idea what painting is in the first place; the same goes for totally overrated egomaniac-dressed-as-politically-engaged-artist Thomas Hirschhorn; Leidy Churchman transfers his own reduction of the political to the narcisstic-personal onto the painter, as if Soutine's deep empathy with the precarious workers was an identitarian project. The only person in the whole video with eyes in his head and saving grace for the arts is artist Imran Qureshi.

[@BenjaminDurrutti]

Thanks for saying that! The movie is a total collection of clichés about art, it hurts!

Hey, I’m new to the art world so I didn’t understand a lot of the things in the video, and this comment. What do you mean by “body-denying”. What made you think that these people didn’t understand Soutine? Do you have a better explanation of his work? And why did this video jump out to you as so shocking? Sorry if these videos sounded accusatory or like I disagree, I don’t mean to sound angry or anything, I’m just curious and want to learn

[@Jay-uv5xg]

its interesting how even the jewish artists in this video gloss over his jewish identity, and how his childhood trauma from seeing a jewish kabbalistic ritual on a goose is likely the reason he later became obsessed with painting dead animals often hung in an almost a ritualistic manner as if he was trying to work through that trauma or something.
