Jack Tworkov

Jack Tworkov gives a lecture talking about his pedagogical and artistic practice. Tworkov’s artistic practice is rooted in both abstract and representational motifs. For Tworkov, a good abstract painter is as much connected to the human spirit as any other painter because of abstract paintings ability to function as a free form. Tworkov tells the participants that painting requires a lot of listening and looking. For Tworkov, art doesn’t develop with just individuals, but it develops with given times, given situations and given pressures. Tworkov ends his lecture telling the participants that all paintings should have a goal to successfully communicate something.
