  • Sarah Thornton, author of the smash hit "Seven Days in the Art World," discusses her brand new book, "33 Artists in 3 Acts," with Heidi Reitmaier, Beatrice C. Mayer Director of Education at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Turning her wry and unflinching gaze on artists themselves, Thornton explores their studios, bank accounts, and bedrooms. Over the course of three “acts,” she examines how key players are performing their roles and explodes many myths of the artist.
    The annual Richard Gray Visual Art Series recognizes a significant gift from founding CHF board member and distinguished art dealer Richard Gray and is presented in partnership with the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago.

    Quoted in our Instagram @veryprivateart from 11:57 about the artist becoming the craft. Sarah Thornton can be quoted so many times so the difficulty is to pick only one...

    I wonder what artist Ai Weiwei feels presently about making and showing in the west, now that some of his shows have been canceled in the west?

    25:37 (to 25:42) ... You don't know, Sarah, or is it too embarrassing to say what it is about? (Your body languages seem to indicate.)(P.S. I'm a fan of yours.)

    Sarah -If you have written something so profound - why do you have to spend so much time and effort talking about it instead of working on your next great book? I would love to talk with you about ideas like this some time -

      She had to spend the time and effort so she could reach us and probably make you know about this book and consequently give you the opportunity to write your question here. A question that sadly she will probably never read.

      VolordKing, I grew up with Sara in MTl and for sometime we were friends in our teenage years. Not only was she beautiful but she was so gracious. She would explain things to me and I can almost bet she's not using a teleprompter. She is asked questions and has a certain amount time. She is talking on a different level so I think she needs more time. I'd like to see her on her own talking. I need to watch more videos but she got where she is trust me all on her own. Trust me Sara was going somewhere and she did it all on her own.
