Thinking and Making

So.. thinking about the Roberta Smith article in the NYT and Iris' awesome post about Richard Tuttle
I find myself wondering why it can be so hard for some of us to permit ourselves to make work from a place of indulgence and delight.. trusting our ideas enough to spend time working them out as opposed to editing ideas before the conceptual process has even begun- never mind the physical act of making.

This quote from Roberta Smith's article struck me:

What’s missing is art that seems made by one person out of intense personal necessity, often by hand.

Maybe part of this angst is symptomatic of the fast pace of daily life or the need to multi-task. I'm not sure..

A Collective Effort

MUTT is going social. The authors of MUTT blog have decided to confirm all the right wing fears of increasing American socialism. The future of this site will be dedicated to a collection of artists from various parts of the country who will regularly post images, articles and ideas about their work, their scene, and general thoughts about the state of contemporary art. Participants will be invited based on their shared interests in creating a network of individuals who share a common interest in transforming the way we view and think about artists, art and where it comes from.
