Painting as theater, from Guillermo Kuitca

Crisis came early for Guillermo Kuitca.

In 1980, when the prolific Argentinian painter was barely 20, Kuitca threw down his brush in frustration. Having painted consistently since he was 6 — he had his first exhibition when he was just 13 — the artist had reached a standstill. For him, the limitations of his chosen medium had become too much to bear.

"I felt that all the things that I was doing were simply not genuine enough, not good enough, not real enough. And I wasn't finding a connection with that," Kuitca said in a recent interview at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. Kuitca's struggle came at a time when the rest of the art world, having previously declared the art of painting dead, was experiencing an overwhelming resurgence of the form.

"I didn't even know that art was dead, because I was too young to consider that," Kuitca said. "So I experienced the death of painting as a sort of personal experience, not as a market, gallery, art world situation. In a funny way, it happened at a time when there was an eruption. As the art world declared that painting was not dead, it was dying for me."

Real-Life Painting - Neatorama

by John Farrier

Recently I walked by the Ala Moana Mac cosmetic store and noticed a crowd of Japanese tourists gawking and snapping pics. Amazingly, a model in full body paint was posing against a set. She was a darn good simulation of a late 19th century oil painting. At first I though she was nekid–wearing only makeup–but she sported a few scrapes of cloth in the right places. Also, she hardly ever blinked…

A: There is no primer for new plaster. So trained decorators will water down the first coat of emulsion by as much as 50 percent to thin the paint so it soaks in and gets some kind of grab on the wall. Sometimes plasterers over trowel the finish and it
