Painting in isolation, Ferris discusses both the pleasures and anxieties of working in solitude. Throughout the film, Ferris looks outside of her daily studio process for connections to the world, taking stock of viewer’s responses to her work, finding inspiration in both books and the urban environment, and situating her paintings in an art historical tradition.</p> <p><a href="http://artbabble.org/video/art21/keltie-ferris-spray-paints-solitude" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://artbabble.org/video/art21/keltie-ferris-spray-paints-solitude#comments American Painting Becoming / Being an Artist contemporary painting Keltie Ferris Painting Contemporary Art Materials and Process Art21 http://artbabble.org/sites/default/files/bvideos/61/61ec5cf5782f992b/poster-image-01.jpg 61ec5cf5782f992b Wed, 19 Oct 2011 21:27:48 +0000 wesasketch 8794 at http://artbabble.org http://artbabble.org/video/art21/keltie-ferris-has-show <div class="field field-type-nodereference field-field-series"> <div class="field-label">Series:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <a href="/series/new-york-close">New York Close Up</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-nodereference field-field-institution"> <div class="field-label">Institution:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <a href="/partner/art21">Art21</a> </div> </div> </div> <p><em>When does a painting stop being a private object and start becoming a public work? </em>In this film, artist Keltie Ferris prepares for her show <em>KF + CM 4EVER</em> (2010) by crating a new series of paintings in her Bushwick studio, shipping the work across town in a van, and installing the exhibition at Horton Gallery in Chelsea—all in the same day.
