A very old interview with Robert Ryman

I stumbled over this on Jeffrey Collins blog. It’s got a bit of age to it but is really sound and expands on the basic themes of Rymans work. It runs a bit long (almost an hour) but is well worth the time spent. What I enjoyed about this is that it’s less conversation about parties and real estate and mostly honest to goodness focus on approaches and ideas.

A tip of the Hat to Jeffrey Collins for this one.

  1. Hey Thanks Matthew. Yeah I love the video. He really discusses a lot about his painting, and stresses the differences between painting and picture making in this film which is something a lot of people tend to mix up.

    Have a great one and keep up the great work.
