Artists: Your work is unfinished until the moment that it leaves or is taken from your premises. I often add or take away huge bits one-minute before I file it. Things that just happen and become the thing itself.

[Jerry Saltz @jerrysaltz]

Artists: You do know, don’t you, that your mistakes are your style.

Museum workers protest in demand for a living wage outside the opening of the 58th Carnegie International.

Artists: Don’t be silly gooses getting about “not having an idea” for a work. You actually have 100 ideas for every single work. You could make 100 works from the one idea. You just have to get to work you big babies. Idea can’t solve themselves & they’ll pass if you don’t act.😘

[Jerry Saltz @jerrysaltz]

Artists: When it comes to your work, use whatever works for you: Materials, media, platforms, scale, tools, techniques, colors. delivery mechanisms, old models or new ones - use it. Beauty is what works.

The artists of Atelier 17 revolutionized printmaking and redefined gender identity and artistic achievement in the 1940s and ’50s. https://t.co/E9hvVqgNnZ

Remembering Sam Gilliam of the Astral Plane who took painting to its outer banks, creating tabernacles to fearlessness & radicality. Hung from the ceilings & walls, they looked like canvas mountains or gigantic tents and huts, marching cities on the plain. https://t.co/kapg9nUFbf

Yesterday was John the Baptists' birthday. Anyone notice? Early Christians had a sponsor. The apostles were a small group of uneducated men yet Christianity spread nto a world religion due to support of power, Rome.  SCOTUS has become the new sponsor.

Jerry Saltz: The Whitney Biennial Falters On. Thoughts? Arguments? Agreements? Disagreements?
There is some priestcraft among the rest … lose yourself in that music. https://t.co/3N8XZK2zRt

[Jerry Saltz @jerrysaltz]

Artists: It takes constant discipline and vigilance to be and remain free. Be ever on the lookout for the world and your inner demons to tempt you otherwise. And when they do tempt you, remain free. You are freedom machines.

“A Poet’s Work” powerfully conveys the continuing resonance of Gwendolyn Brooks’s work, activism, and support of Black poets, artists, and publishers. https://t.co/gdCBtTyNPV

I read many artist statements. My advice is keep it simple. Write how you talk; maybe share how you knew you were an artist; never oppose the words nature & culture: or say your work “can’t be put into words;” or that it’s a “problemizing” or “troubling” of anything. Do it today!
