James Kalm has on occasions presented what he feels are "historical" exhibitions. But nothing could fit that category more precisely than "Willem de Kooming a Retrospective at MoMA". Billed as the most complete survey of this heroic artist's career ever presented, this exhibition is a once in a life time chance to see its full breadth. Part one features pieces from de Kooning's student years to 1950, what is considered his "break through year". Organized by John Elderfield, Chief Curator Emeritus of Painting and Sculpture.

  • are you allowed to just film in the middle of the gallery? :D

  • @ChrisHayesArt This was recorded during the official press preview, and they're glad to have me giving them extended exposure online.

  • Is this not another half-ass production?! Haha. Thanks so much, James. This is so great.

  • @wuz352 Stay tuned for what I expect will be a trilogy of great art. Keep your eyes peeled for the next two days, thanks JK

  • Stunning. Especially to see all those black and whites. Doesn't get better than this.

  • Unfortunately,,, when I was at MoMA a week or two ago.. this wasn't open to the public yet :[ BUT, I got to see Woman 1 which happens to be one of my favorites. Great video, great artist, great museum.

  • Thanks so much for uploading this. I know I wouldn't get to see this otherwise.

  • amazing person, amazing artist

  • Damn, de Kooning could do it all! Amazing! Thanks so much for posting this!

  • Thank you so very much, James, for the videos that you post. I seldom have the opportunity to access the kinds of galleries and museums that you feature, living as I do so far away from any large city. Please continue the good work, and thanks again. 

  • Great stuff James!! De Kooning is a massive influence on my work as an artist, so this is great to see and helps.

  • Breathtaking to see so much great art.
