NYSS celebrates the long life and career of artist

NYSS celebrates the long life and career of artist Al Leslie, who taught at the School in the early 1990s. In the clip, Leslie talks about how he uses a mirror when drawing figures to focus on the forms instead of the person.

"So that when I take a painting or a drawing of a person, if I am making a drawing of you now and I'm looking at you and scrutinizing your features, as I do it, I start off thinking that I know who you are and what you look like. But then as I do it, the drawing that's here gets so far off from the person that's there that I can't even recognize the two of you. So, what I do is that I take a mirror, and I look into it, and I see you in reverse and I make the drawing in reverse. When I do that, I distance myself from the person, I distance myself from the drawing and I see the forms as they relate to each other." - Al Leslie

"Drawing is the aspect of unearthing one’s own art and ideas, of finding movement through this evolving sounding board, of being in a mode of interior thinking and receiving next steps. This course poses drawing as a question or search that will enrich each individual’s particular art context and contemporary perspective. With a strong emphasis on “looking”, at both subjects and drawings themselves, students will work to expand their visual language and strengthen their individual approach through a question they set up for themselves. Returning to this question, as the parameters broaden, becomes a connective thread towards the weaving of a personal paradigm within one’s work." - Ilse Murdock

Exploring abstraction. It has been so important to learn to see abstraction behind a figurative painting. I enjoy it so much. Definitely i will continue with my abstractions. La spiaggia, Renato Gutusso.
