PAINTERS ON THE RADIO<\/strong><\/p>\n Bob Dylan<\/strong><\/p>\n Look, I just think Dylan\u2019s artwork is fantastic, I loved the Gagosian shows, they\u2019re weird and funny and deeply strange, like Dylan. Larry Gagosian talks about<\/a> how he convinced Dylan to do the show, and even got him to show up to the opening, which is pretty insane considering Dylan doesn\u2019t really show up to anything. He\u2019s got a studio he works out of in Santa Monica, or maybe it\u2019s Malibu, he keeps things shrouded in mystery, that guy. Also, Richard Prince did not make this artwork.<\/p>\n Kim Gordon<\/strong><\/p>\n Gordon maybe shouldn\u2019t even be on this list, as she\u2019s been an artist longer than she was in a band<\/a>\u2014she went to Otis College of Art and Design, and even worked as one of Larry Gagosian\u2019s first employees. And she\u2019s exhibited widely the entire time, first showing with Reena Spaulings and for the last few years staging a number of solo shows at 303 Gallery\u2014founder Lisa Spellman and Gordon met in the \u201980s, they were part of the same East Village scene, all that. There\u2019s a video work by Gordon currently up at 303, and she also has a show of work at Amant in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n Jewel<\/strong><\/p>\n After a show at Crystal Bridges, Jewel<\/a> staged a performance in Venice during the Biennale, and, you know, color me intrigued. There\u2019s something real here.<\/p>\n David Byrne<\/strong><\/p>\n Talking Heads invented art rock because, well, that\u2019s what they were\u2014artists who came together to form a punk band, as art. So it\u2019s not quite fair to be talking about David Byrne<\/a> as if he just switched from being a rock star to being an artist, but here we are. He shows at Pace and I think it\u2019s solid work, plus he\u2019s always at gallery openings, popping in and out on his ever present bicycle.<\/p>\n AUTEUR THEORY OF DIRECTORS IN GALLERIES<\/strong><\/p>\n Bennett Miller<\/strong><\/p>\n Miller\u2019s staged a few great shows of his AI-generated work at Gagosian that were pretty ahead of the curve. My main complaint is, the guy was on such a heater: Capote, Moneyball, Foxcatcher, and then\u2026no new Bennett Miller flicks.<\/a> Bennett, I\u2019m a fan of the art, but would love another film soon too.<\/p>\n Yorgos Lanthimos<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d like to take a break from making films,\u201d he told The New York Times<\/a> in March. \u201cFor now, at least.\u201d To do what, Yorgos? Ah yes, to show your photography at art galleries. While they were taken on the sets of his films, the black-and-white works have way more to do with Diane Arbus and Robert Frank than anything informing Bugonia or Poor Things.<\/p>\n Harmony Korine<\/strong><\/p>\n After years at Gagosian, Korine moved to Hauser & Wirth, where he had a show at the downtown LA space in 2023. It was great, if a little conservative for Korine\u2014what\u2019s great about him, and there\u2019s so much to love about the guy, is his paintings aren\u2019t a chance to channel inner artsy weirdness. The work might actually be the most normal stuff he\u2019s ever made. Like, when he went on Letterman to promote a movie\u2014that was deeply disturbing high-concept performance art<\/a>. The stuff he shows at Hauser is classy. But everything Korine makes, does, says, thinks, it\u2019s all part of this shaggy American spectrum of art-making, and I\u2019m here for it. Maybe he\u2019s the best example of a famous-person-slash-artist\u2026because it\u2019s all art.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.vanityfair.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PAINTERS ON THE RADIO Bob Dylan Look, I just think Dylan\u2019s artwork is fantastic, I loved the Gagosian shows, they\u2019re weird and funny and deeply strange, like Dylan.
