“Well, painting today certainly seems very vibrant, very alive, very exiting. Five or six of my contemporaries around New York are doing very vital work, and the direction that painting seems to be taken here - is - away from the easel - into some sort, some kind of wall, wall painting.” WellsKindSeemsTodayTakenFiveAliveNew YorkPaintingWallSix Author:Jackson Pollock

I simply read things the other Manhattanites read (NY Times, New Yorker magazine, Wall Street Journal, and many of the books they read) plus all my Christian reading.

“There may be something universal about idealizing the past, but I think it's taken to an absurd degree in New York, which is what I'm poking fun at.

“I think the nice thing about showing work in New York is that other artists come to see it.

“The first theatre I ever found was in the backyard of a new suburban community in the foothills of the Poconos. My dad was a young FBI agent at his first or second posting - we're all from New York. He was posted in Scranton, Pennsylvania and he put the family in a brand new red-brick apartment. It was in a C-shape and behind it was a small hill that led up to the woods. There was a white-washed brick wall that was a perfect theatre! There were windows and all the ladies behind the windows in their apartments. I would go out there after lunch every day and sing opera.” FirstsYoungFoundCommunityWhitePerfectBehindsNew YorkWallDadShapesRedWindowMy DadWoodsTheatreAgentsBrandsHillsLunchOperaApartmentBricksFbiBackyardsBrand NewPennsylvaniaBrick WallFbi Agents Author:Mercedes Ruehl
