David Salle is an American painter, printmaker, and stage designer. From his New York studio, the artist talks about the combination of images that go into one of his multi-layered paintings.
The artist also explains how his interest in 'exploring the body in space' has led him to paint the bodies of his models and have them physically lifted onto his canvases to leave an imprint.

If only we could all love ourselves as much as this guy loves himself.

How to talk and talk and talk without saying anything at all...Bravo!

I love when he lights up the cigar!.....This could easily be an Abstract Artist 'Mockumentary'

The cigar put me off immediately, but I tried to resist and stayed.
There is a lot to save after that.
I think it is fundamental to talk about art, and that art not always speaks of itself and this is does not diminish it. The complexity of language, meaning and context behind a lot of good/valid contemporary artworks makes it often impossible to navigate without a map, even for critics and experts. At the same time it is crucial that Art reaches as many people as possible. Surely not all artists are the right people to talk about their own art or even able to, but the idea that good art speaks for itself is naive.

The immediate impact that it had on me was that it was more interpretive bullshit. You knew it was coming as soon as he lit the cigar.

the lighting of the cigar was nice and pretentious

The best thing to do is just paint and not talk about it. ADDENDUM I'm not saying talking about one's work is a bad thing, but let the painting do the talking. If you need to give a painting a title are you worried people might be seeing something other than what you intended?
ONE YEAR LATER: Thank you to all who took the trouble to comment.
l don't exhibit but am contemplating entering a competition in 2023, purely for the money. I'll let you know if am accepted and whether I'm tempted to speak about myself and my so-called "work." (Yes, l have had to speak to make my point.}

As John Berger suggested, I think art can be seen as a record of a conversation between artist and subject, and the viewer then has another conversation with the work/s. So I appreciate an artist who is later comfortable to talk about honestly their process or intent which can continue the cycle of our dialogue. Sometimes, It is easy to critique these comments for what jar rather than continue the conversation. And sometimes, an artists work just doesn’t speak to me - and I leave the conversation.

One of the US greatest living artist. Love his New Yorker ? paintings.

I appreciate David Salle sharing some of his process.

I am grateful for this video. But it seems to me that it’s very important for an artist to be in a stream and to transmit art that is not based on someone’s opinion, while we artists suffer from a lack of attention and we need to somehow survive, which for me justifies attention to the audience in this way but at the same time it really hurts. This way we are not an artists, you become a manager and a salesman. I would like to wish you, if you have already reached a high position in the world of art, to bend your line more and do YOUR work exactly and vision as much as possible. I am grateful to you for your frankness and for raising this topic.

I like the intense passion for seeing scenes of lifestories or glimpses of moments of all kinds of something happening - I would use the word - images of life - and somehow I find it liberating that you seen to use a mixture/collage of drawing, painting, photo silscreens and more - they are definitely very interesting to move into -

Terrific art , enthralled with David's work.

Yep, I agree.
Immediate impact, and grows in dimension over time.
This man is obviously comfortable in his own skin...and it shows in his work.
Great video production. It just flows well.

he's one of the most honest artists you will come across!

When you enter through the gates of the human heart, there are no rules, or boundaries. Art is just a word. What exactly is or isn’t art.
Yes indeed, just paint, just create; Paint, draw, sculpt, write, sing, dance, blow bubbles.... whatever your whispering excitement calls you for.
Stop thinking and channel!
Thinking is for certain tasks: booking a flight or writing a shopping list.
It’s merely a secretary.
We are all children at heart.
Let’s play and enjoy this play, we call:
Life!
