Cy Twombly’s Heroic Masterpiece
Cy Twombly’s ‘Untitled’ from 1964 is a major triumph of the artist’s groundbreaking 1960s output. In this episode of Expert Voices, discover the mixture of mark making, handprints and energetic brushstrokes that make up this visceral composition, and learn how living in Rome inspired Twombly to combine past, present and future in a style all his own. ‘Untitled’ is a highlight of our upcoming Modern & Contemporary Art Evening Sale (29 June | London)

It's interesting what rubbish some people talk in order to sell a piece of art. I was friends with Cy over his last 35 years, we've talked a lot about his paintings, but he never mentioned anything about the influence of politics - especially not the one of the 20th century.

Art is an intellectual pursuit of self and our environs. Not to say if you don’t understand a painting you’re not an intellectual; however, if you expect a piece to make sense to you at a glance or for every piece to make sense to you, period, then your approach to art may be lacking. Also, to judge art harshly through a screen is an injustice to the artists and yourself. ❤🤞🏾

I wish someone could explain why this great art or even bad art. I just don't get it. These things are probably worth millions. This is just madness. In the future people will look back at this stuff and find it incredible that in our time people thought it was so valuable and wonderful. Nobody ever explains WHY it is good. They just speak in very broad and simple terms like this commentator does with expressions like black and red having a battle or wonderful "mark making". Where in this painting is there perceptible evidence of an interest of an interest in ancient Roman history and the coliseum.

That’s a really beautiful question, and one I believe all great artists are constantly asking themselves: “how do I know this isn’t crap?” Or, “is this a good work of art?” If you’re curious, after much thinking and reading and making, here’s my two (admittedly very long) cents: Lets start here: for something to be good, it has to be good at DOING something. A pen, for example, is only good when it is good at doing what pens do. Okay, so the obvious question is: “what do pens do?” Well, a pen makes lines and marks. So really, when we ask “is this a good pen?” really what we are asking is “is this pen good at doing what pens do, which is making lines and marks?” SO when we ask “is this a good work of art?” we are really asking “is this work of art good at doing what works of art do?” Okay. So what do works of art do? Our answer has to be broad enough to fit all art, but narrow enough to not include anything that isn’t art. We’re sort of looking for a definition, i guess, which are always based on oppositions. A pen is a pen because it is NOT a car. A car is a car because it is NOT a pen. If our definition of art includes anything, it ceases to be a useful definition. Because of this, we can start with something that isn’t art: a rock. A rock is something that was not made by a person. Thats our first thing. So let’s look at something made by a person. That will get us closer: a painting. Let’s imagine a painting of shoes. Good or bad is irrelevant. What is this painting doing? In a way, the painting is showing us a way to look at the world by looking at shoes. By looking at shoes, we can get a lot of information: who the shoes belong to, what they’re used for, etc. The painting stands out against the wall, reaching toward us, and when we look at it, really look, it teaches us a new way to see, and thus, a new way to be. The shoes, on the other hand, don’t teach us anything. When the shoes are being worn, the wearer probably doesn’t even notice the shoes. They disappear from his mind while they hold him up effortlessly. In fact, the only time the wearer notices the shoes is when something is wrong with them. So while the painting calls to us to show us a way to see, the shoes disappear while they are being used. Hey wait that looks like an opposition. A perfect one. If art can both stand out and show us some way to be, and also it can disappear to not show us anything, then we don’t have a useful definition. Where equipment like a shoe disappears and exists only for its use, a painting calls to us to show us a way of looking at the world, a way of being. Art, calls to us, and shows us a way of being. THAT is what art does. After this long, winding journey, we finally get back to our original question: “is this work of art good at doing what art does?” Let’s rephrase this with what we now know “is this work of art good at: giving us a new way to see the world? One that sticks in our minds so that we can always have it? Will this work of art, in the words of Wallace Stevens, enrich, deepen, and enchant my life if I allow myself to let it?” The Cy Twombly painting in the video- does it show me a new way of seeing? I would say yes! It shows me, in its massive looping lines, to pay attention to the movement of the body, the rhythms of the arcs of the moving human form in the act of painting, maybe even the act of creation; and it teaches me to accept what is out of my control-that no matter how hard I try to read them, those thin, grey lines at the top and bottom of the painting are not words, only marks and lines. Have I gotten everything there is to get out of this painting? God knows i haven’t. But isn’t that incredible? Every time l come back to this work, ill get something new from it, some new way of seeing, some new way of noticing. So we ask, one last time: Is it a good work of art? Yes, I believe it is.

@@adamjnotthecongressmanschi7026 to counter this explanation by building upon it we need to analyze art a little bit deeper. Art isn’t giving us a different view on “the world” so to speak, it gives us a different perspective on something, there is no way, no matter how huge or how detailed that a piece of art could encapsulate the entirety of the world/all experiences etc. Soooo what am I getting at? Art can broaden our horizons by giving us a new perspective on something. Whether it’s something literal like a scene or object, or an emotion like something a more interpretive artist would create. Some might believe that I am about to call Twomby’s art interpretive… no. I wouldn’t call it interpretive because it’s either too focused on a certain interpretation or too fucking interpretative. Like this piece of art work could legitimately be interpreted as a man’s battle with diarrhea and it would be a legitimate interpretation. (Notice how I didn’t say which piece of art could be interpreted as diarrhea, I didn’t pick a single painting because they ALL could be interpreted as such) generally speaking when an artist creates a piece of art they inspire a feeling in you, adoration, sadness, anger shock etc. when someone sees Twomby’s art they’re confused, start laughing and then get sad after realizing it’s an actual piece of art. An example of him railroading his interpretations would be his Greek pieces, where he keeps the “art” abstract, still a bunch of scribbles, and then he adds in famous words from the Odyssey. Art can and should be interpreted however you want, however when you’ve made art that is almost just scribbles or paint thrown onto a canvas (and I mean that literally) how can you call that art? As a person with an adoration for art, I can honestly only say his art makes me angry about modern art. To leave on a note that anyone can get behind, even the most basic artists can imprint a general set of emotions on the art’s viewer, whether it’s a good set of emotions or a bad set of emotions. Ask yourself what Twomby’s art inspires within you.

It’s simple - if someone is ready to pay millions for it, that’s how much it costs. Art market doesn’t follow the usual market rules. It’s all about the buyer and their desire to possess a particular piece of art. It doesn’t always mean that the most expensive art is the best. It could be that it’s the most desired for some reason.

Twombly's painting captures human nature at it's most passionate, aggressive and erotic, while at the same time conveying a stillness and timelessness that imbues the work with a tragic quality, as if to say that this is who we are as humans, - we fight, we struggle, we fuck, we bleed, and ultimately we die and pass on our traits, the best and the worse, to new generations who will repeat what we have done without knowing why.
