Agnes Martin

 I sat and just listened to this interview with Agnes Martin last night. I was floored by the dialog. Her notion that she talks about, " not interfering with the work", is brilliantly put forth. A keystone narrative... 20 minutes of valuable perspective.

I'd like to have nothing in my mind!! I'd have liked to hear more of what she believes about Inspiration. I feel like I have to work to get inspiration, or inspiration comes from the working. I guess maybe at some point if you let go of all the 'stuff' then the Inspiration comes, pure. Not sure. Of course I'm also inspired by tons of things. Okay, thanks for putting this up. Lots to think about.
