Chris Martin Studio Visit Part I

James Kalm is privileged to bring viewers along for an exclusive studio visit with one of New York's most up-and-coming painters. Chris Martin is one of a small cadre of avant painters who have coalesced around the Williamsburg neighborhood. After decades of consistent work, collectors and critics are responding with great anticipation of his show at Mitchell Inness & Nash. In this extended interview, Martin discusses his interest "Outsider Art" the eccentric materials he uses, and some of his basic artistic philosophy.

i don't know mr. martin, but i do live and work in nyc, the 'trust fund' is bothersome. some of us make it here by working very hard, one job, two jobs, while making art in our spare time. it's a tough road, but there are alot of tough people here competing for a small prize; give mr. martin some credit for surviving! :)

lol not the James Caan (that's what it sounded like at the beginning), or the Chris Martin I was expecting. Still watched.
