Keynote Lecture: A Conversation with Artist Jamie Wyeth

[@sweetg12651]

What a great interview! I grew up near Chadds Ford, Pa so I have been a Wyeth fan for years. I never realized how funny Jamie Wyeth is.

I'm so impressed with Ms Davis; she is so knowledgeable and well-spoken. It felt like watching a nice conversation amongst good friends. Jamie is so humorous, witty, and unfettered by his success (seemingly). It's not often he gives longer recorded interviews; what a treat.

I was saddened that so few have seen this interview. It was excellent. This was another fine example of Crystal Bridges offering the greater community incredible insight and perspective. Thank you

From his stories; Sometimes the worst becomes the best. Plus, can you imagine living in Rockwell Kent's house? These guys are on a whole different level.

I absolutely loved this! I'm so glad I got to see the show. I was there for this conversation and was able to meet Jamie! He actually wrote me a letter years ago when he illustrated a children's book.

Da Vinci also studied cadavers.

I think a great artest must know the body from the inside to the outside.

It is infuriating that there are only fleeting glimpses of the paintings, perhaps of 2-second duration. The camera work is dreadful. Minutes long shots of the same people talking without movement and poorly lit, and fraction of a second shots of the paintings, which is what the interview is about. Classic mistake made in every interview of a speaker discussing paintings. We want to see the paintings! Not the face of the speaker. Very irritating.

[@jpkatz1435]

I agree.

[@tr33m00nk]

I agree along with @jpkatz1435. More of the time should have been given to the images being talked about. The title does indicate it's a 'conversation' with the artist. But the 'conversation' is about the art and without seeing the art the 'conversation' is not very informative. As stated here, it is a 'classic' and all to common mistake when critiquing art. A split screen would have been a better way to show the art and the artist's behavior simultaniously.

Interesting body language.
