His work is amazing 😊
I have been following your father's work since the late 70s, and consider him the finest artist in the photographic medium by far. His photographs are chillingly beautiful!
❤🎉
Tree of live for me is my Lord and saviour, Jesus Christ
Kenton's bathing suite models remind me of my hot ex wife
The curator did an excellent job! I wonder if she is aware of Toastmasters?
This was great, thanks!
AWESOME! Thanks for showing.
Was binging some LastWeekTonight and was randomly recommended this video. Hope you guys won but even if you didn't, it was a great video!
Just discovering Ramos work 💯
Amazing artist full of ideas with precise immense details, pop culture, surrealism, childhood memories, SCFI and fantastic realism that will make your head spin with awe. Thank you for this amazing tour 😊. Hope to see his work one day, I also love the low brow artist Robert Williams. He’s for sure my favorite.
I thoroughly enjoyed this exhibit at the Crocker. Thank you for the wonderful video, as well, which provides background and context for appreciating the art of the De Morgans.
Thank you so much! I just visited the exhibit and totally loved seeing the beautiful works displayed so nicely together.
What a read! Thank you. So many emotions evoked by this for sure.
Thank you Scott for this lovely video. This show is terrific and I'm so glad that it is able to travel. If your members were unable to see the show you curated, I hope that they can go to the Laguna Art Museum before January 7th or to the Dixon Gallery and Gardens in 2024. it is a truly beautiful show.
That's a wonderful intersection of interests
Gorgeous
I've been doing faultline inspired art works for 3 years now. My sense of surprise melted away by the quality
I saw a show from Todd in Hollywood, FL. I immediately fell in love with his work. The show I’m speaking of was in the late 90s. His work is forever with me.
Samurai: elite. Ruling class. Shown with his subversiveness ( non conforming hair and clothing, background) this alludes to him being gay or not a rule follower. The only thing more rebellious than being gay is being an outlaw.. or black. Or black, gay, outlaw. but when mainstream embraces outlaws or deviance as a norm..means to be rebellious one would have to be straight and a conformer..IF the point iis simply to rebel. I am old enough to have been a grown up as the AIDS epidemic and hysteria occurred. I view both the razor and the condom as weapons. The razor the condom both indicate to me the battle without and within . Who to war with? Conformist or rebel? Safety vs raw...which if you were in the 80s you did not realize heterosexual could get and transmit AIDS. We thought it was a disease of lifestyle. Only gays abd drug users got it. AIDS had to make severe inroads into communities for us to recognize that anyone could get the disease. TO me this is a complicated dilemma of clashing paradigms. Shall he conform and cut his facial hair to APPEAR conforming? Shall he keep his kimono on to hide his criminal affiliation? Shall he wear a condom to engage in safe gay sex or go raw which is its own rebellion? The clash of paradigms to me, is like the Kenny Roger's song the Gambler. " you gotta know when to hold them, know when to fold them" You gotta know when to be safe..know when to rebel..and know when conformism IS rebellion. So here is his dilemma: he is an outlaw samurai.. already breaking so many rules with tattoos and the moustache faced with his own tendencies to rebel and wanting to engage in homosexual relations but knowing a condom would keep him safe.... so should he keep up his M.O of rebellion or be safe? Conforming or rebel? Or condom to rebel?
LOVE this!!
It is so strange that 250 years after the puritanical period, many Americsns are still hung up about sex as if it is a disease they hope they and their kids won't catch pr have to acknowledge. Their kids... IRONIC.
There is a delay of over 2 minutes before this video started.
Yup. Live broadcasts are super fun.
Wow!
I’m confused. The curator refers to “green gingko leaves,” but I don’t believe those are ginkgo leaves. They look like ivy to me. I see actual gingko leaves in some of Ito’s other work, but not here.
17:33 The Clock by Christian Marclay!
The speaker explains the paintings very well and the camera focuses on the interesting brushwork.
Amazing. Scott is better than ever; the artwork is beautiful. I also admire the design of the exhibition - and the camera work is super. Just fantastic.
I had no idea they were based in Davis for awhile. Them and Wayne Thiebaud I’m kinda surprised how much influence Davis has had on the American art scene
Scott -- This is great. As rich as all your writing over the years. --charlie johnson
This was quite fascinating to watch. I enjoyed hearing about the artist's history and experiences. And you can definitely tell by their artwork how they evolved with their life experiences.
You make art history very interesting thank you!
Wonderful talk, thank you so much!
I can't wait to visit Crocker to see this exhibition!
Beautiful! (And the painting is pretty great too). Really glad I found that channel, it's informative and really well done.
Thank you! I kept asking myself “what is on her mind?” She is someone I would like to engage in conversation in this quiet soft morning being displayed.
I went to the crime is your name and I seen you before
This was a really fantastic explanation. Such insight! Thank you so much!
Wonderful
This show is stunning. Thank you Scott for making this happen.
Who else here is being forced to take notes on this for art class they didn’t want to but had to or else they can’t graduate?
Thank You
Thank you for recording this and sending it out. I had surgery and couldn’t make it to the talk and was disappointed, but now I get to see and hear it.
love it!
Liking!
Fire! I met you at Larry's night. Killer set!
Thanks for the background and perspective on this piece. I also grew up with these toys so it speaks to me as well.

Wonderful story!
Jessica is a dear friend of mine. Not only are we friends via text but we’re also Facebook friends, and I posted this link tagging her saying that I hope she had a good time recording this thing. I told her I was posting the link so my other friends could see it as well but that’s besides the point. The point here is that she and I are friends. She’s a super nice lady. I can’t wait to write on her Facebook timeline for her birthday.
The art and explanation here is so great. This is really what art is all about :)
