Thanks Kate for letting James Kalm make the video. Neo Rauch seems to be a very good and interesting artist. I love how thick the paint is on some parts of the paintings. Regards Conrad Bo Superblur from Johannesburg South Africa

His works are pictorially spectacular and unfailingly interesting in their enigmatic tableaux, yet I haven't once had an emotional reaction to them. Nothing seems to be of any consequence, so an emotional flatness is their final effect on me, as much as I enjoy their wonderful strangeness. This doesn't feel deliberate, rather a consequence of a pervasive and hard-baked cynical satirical 'vibe'. He never paints human beings, they are ciphers - every thing is mock and a complete lack of psychological depth or interiority is what prevents his work being truly great. The greatest figurative painters are without fail psychologically intense but then... they were people of great depth and humanity. Rauch has immense gifts but it remains to be seen if he can evolve imaginative empathy and psychological realism (not pictorial) to make art that touches us on a human level. I wish him luck. If he does, he will be an artistic force to be reckoned with.

Are you reacting to images or the actual paintings? Unless you are standing in front of the paintings you cannot fully experience them.

@@MikeWitmerNatureJournal I've seen about 15 of his whopper-sized paintings but not this show, but it doesn't look like there's any change in his sensibility whatsoever. I admire his work, it's thrilling, strange, enigmatic and spectacular, but I do not love it. I feel no love, no human tenderness or compassion in it at all, technically or psychologically. I do in all the great painters I love.

​@@selwynr Fair enough, but care to name any painters that give you that emotional gratification? I'm genuinely interested because I'm always on the lookout for recommendations. I feel a similar way about Neo's paintings, there is something missing that I can't put my finger on. Its like not enough salt in a meal, or like a joke with a weak punch-line. It remains at the level of "Oh look, some pretty cool figurative compositions"...

Nice quixotic spoken-word ska band at the top, in the as-it-was-always-thus doleful Cooper Union Square! James' latest Rauch show review is simply tip top! So many fetching pearls of wisdom, so many wonderful accounts of art history, personal or otherwise. I have a 2002 catalog (PDF) of his work titled "Bonnefantenmuseum" by Hatje Cantz, and it shows many dozens of his first career-phase works. They are more pop, flat, and graphic. I've always much preferred those to his later more theatrical, somber, 18th-century-ish classical works, replete with mucky shadows and finicky detailing. In this show, it almost feels like he's shifting back a little to that earlier breeziness. Thank you so very much James, this video did not disappoint! Thank you, and thanks be to Frau Kate!

being a well trained academic painter has so many benefits, it give artists more scope for creation - having an additional set of tools to employ to make art. but many art schools have abandoned teaching these skills.
