Bad for art? Who knows? Depends on the artist, I suppose. I don't know what that reality show is about. I know for myself that I can never talk about the complex and complicated ways I think of a work as I am making it (almost always a painting), and for that matter, I can hardly talk about it afterwards, either. I usually distill any talk into a discussion of process and history: I started with this, then I did that, and then I thought about X, and eventually I stopped. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Michael Brady
