Dialogue: 0,0:00:11.34,0:00:16.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Richard Tuttle: Staying Contemporary]
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.98,0:00:31.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The show is called "26" because
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.88,0:00:36.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I have very consciously created a spinal column
Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.69,0:00:39.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of my New York exhibitions.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:45.87,0:00:47.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We have a reference--
Dialogue: 0,0:00:47.26,0:00:49.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,an archival reference--
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.26,0:00:52.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to an artist's development.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.62,0:00:59.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That being said, I'm also very committed
Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.28,0:01:02.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to the idea of making an art that
Dialogue: 0,0:01:02.56,0:01:05.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,stays contemporary.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.18,0:01:12.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The actual artwork is a combination
Dialogue: 0,0:01:12.05,0:01:15.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the kinds of things that only happen once
Dialogue: 0,0:01:18.16,0:01:20.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the kinds of things that happen always.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:23.56,0:01:26.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Like the piece on the wall right here
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.42,0:01:31.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is a piece that's meant to be finished
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.74,0:01:33.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at the time of exhibit.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.36,0:01:38.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, actually, it's composed of a paper element
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.28,0:01:40.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which was done before.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.68,0:01:46.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But the painting-on-the-wall part
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.10,0:01:48.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had to be made subsequently.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.34,0:01:53.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It captures the kind of experience
Dialogue: 0,0:01:53.80,0:01:55.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that cannot be repeated.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.32,0:02:02.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,At the time, the general idea of achieving art
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.18,0:02:04.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was to find your image--
Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.77,0:02:09.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,done over and over again,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.54,0:02:12.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,used and used and used until it was exhausted.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.07,0:02:17.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It was so much about coming to the end of things.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.52,0:02:18.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I was 22.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.46,0:02:21.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I was interested in things beginning.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.48,0:02:30.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I love materials on the one hand,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.52,0:02:33.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I'm not interested in materials in the other.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:34.21,0:02:36.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,How can somebody love materials
Dialogue: 0,0:02:37.35,0:02:38.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to the degree I do
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.65,0:02:42.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and be absolutely not interested in materials?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.05,0:02:43.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And people talk about,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:43.42,0:02:46.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Oh, Richard, you know, uses stuff that can\Nbe thrown away,"
Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.30,0:02:47.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and all that.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.11,0:02:49.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, really what...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.42,0:02:52.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's my solution for sustaining them,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.10,0:02:54.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because, yeah, I love a piece of tissue paper,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.70,0:02:56.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I know the world doesn't.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.76,0:03:03.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There's making art,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.32,0:03:05.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then there's the art of making art.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.38,0:03:10.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If this, in any way, is directed to the young artist,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.35,0:03:12.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I want to say, you know,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.72,0:03:16.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,spend your time thinking about the art of making art.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.78,0:03:24.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Making pictures is a tool for life.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:25.50,0:03:29.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Life is so much more important than art,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.82,0:03:31.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but then art's importance
Dialogue: 0,0:03:31.84,0:03:34.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,comes when it's a tool for life--
Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.88,0:03:37.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you know, when it makes life more available for us.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:38.26,0:03:40.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can say, as a person,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.18,0:03:43.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I simply need a good picture.
