Yes! the Norton lectures, I was going to say the same to you, funny. It's so remarkable to watch him draw with willow charcoal, always in a pristine white shirt. Thanks Joe, you have always had lots to say about drawing
Thanks Ronni! At the Louisiana Museum outside of Copenhagen last summer I was reintroduced to some of Kentridge’s films. I had just finished teaching a semester where I had used willow charcoal for the first time in years. Seeing his work again—-that loop thing—-but in the context of returning to materials and being with people after the COVID chasm, the simplicity and breadth of his work hit me really hard. I highly recommend his 6 Norton lectures, Drawing Lessons on YouTube….brilliant.

“This recognition or openness to seeing beyond our narrow casting of relevance is embodied in materials.” Great sentence, Joe
