Theaster Gates at White Cube on The Art Channel

[@totocarrillo13]

I’m a contractor in Chicago and put Ground Rules in a building for flooring. He then went to the building and me and my team cut out three of these pieces for him. Glad we could be apart of it.

The wooden board found in the "Freedom Of Assembly" piece is called pegboard.

[@SIMPLEARTSCRAFTS]

Good day!! I really like your video! You are doing very well! Keep shooting some more. I enjoy watching! Where are you from?

[@TheArtChannel1]

Thank you. Please keep watching. We have made many other films which are available on the channel on KZbin. The Art Channel is based in London.

[@SIMPLEARTSCRAFTS]

@@TheArtChannel1 Very good! nice! Is it cold in your country right now?

[@shruggzdastr8-facedclown]

The curtain of tar seen in the painting component of the "Hierarchy" piece evokes the lava flow of a thermal vent-style volcano (think Mt. Kilauea in Hawaii).

[@annbritton1669]

or it might evoke a burnt dinner

[@johnjones3714]

Some of this is very cool Imaginative

[@annbritton1669]

id not be a fan of the smell of tar in my house but each to his own. BTW I have a hot top business down the street must drop some thrift shop things in and see what happens

[@shruggzdastr8-facedclown]

Those tie-downs featured in the "Shrug" piece are called ratchet straps.

the emperors clothes?

😂❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

For over 50 years I have followed the art world and its sometimes odd creations that somehow stirred us. I must say that this is the very first time that the absurdity and the equally daft commentary makes it clear that the art world struggles to find a new place, a new popular. Maybe if the commentator spent a day roofing or laying a road he would understand its not quite a smell you'd want in a public space or at home.

[@ckdbyl]

bravo and thank you for this comment

[@trevornorris49]

love this work but...........one increment to the left or to the right on the verbal art-speak dial, and I wold have tuned out

[@artapples8417]

The host sure has to pile in the artspeak to give value to the sometimes ordinary art pieces.

[@annbritton1669]

I'd hardly call them ordinary, it looks like someone is putting the two fingers up to the art world but they don't get it.

[@gogogaga3974]

Tastelesness Is Real Over Here. Get Some Knowledge Then Speak.

[@zissou6928]

You're ordinary

[@NilsBeh]

the humming, why?

[@donemigholzjr.7344]

Brilliant but only if it is a perspective of failed art depicting a failed scenario; History is part of culture, what we have here is a failure of culture. Art does not “Fail” but it has become so mundane that only the mundane is able to grow.

[@annbritton1669]

hip hip hooray an honest assessment

[@rr7firefly]

Some are quite interesting in their material aspect and intention. Some are not.

[@nicolehermosilla4203]

malgré toutes les explications, ça ne ressemble à rien, peut être des décorations murale pour apporter différents tons dans une pièce

[@barbaraclark249]

this is nonsense too much talk

[@tomaocatvianpuiu3558]

freedom of assembly is a rip off of brancusi the endless column...wtf

[@steveminatra6210]

toma ocatvian Puiu you think?

[@annbritton1669]

yes but didn't he do it with such flair in peg board:(

[@davidmayhew8083]

It is a reference. Done all the time in art. A homage too

[@LuvHrtZ]

I found myself wishing the narrator would STFU and let the art talk for itself, mainly because I think he misses the point of almost every piece. I loved the bitumen paintings and Ground Rules.

[@MrIrons-og3rg]

The great lie

[@JOSEPHCHARLESCOLIN2025]

Well.....My Art made from my face might be just ...Coolz & @ $1 Per Second Forever
