'Why do artists continue to paint? Does painting have an intrinsic value?' These questions were the focus of the debate held at the ICA in November 2010 in 'the lead up to Bloomberg New Contemporaries 2010 at the ICA'. Bruce McLean, Vanessa Jackson, Margarita Gluzberg and Mark Leckey took part in this discussion, considering the current state of painting.
Chaired by ICA curator David Thorp. see ICA website.
The comments made by Mark Leckey in relation to his trouble with painting I consider pertinent
he states his desire of 'not just wanting to look at paintings but wanting to be in them'.
Some of the artists that are mentioned within this discussion I have also added links to.
Christopher Wool ( Born 1955. Lives and works in New York City)
