Artists on Artists: Stanley Whitney on Joan Mitchell's Fearless Career and the Drama of Painting

Watch abstract painter Stanley Whitney reflect on Joan Mitchell’s fearless career. From New York in the 1960s to current interpretations of the artist’s monumental works, Whitney discusses how Mitchell’s painting can’t be read as right or wrong, beautiful or not beautiful. Instead, he calls attention to the drama of painting and the importance of feeling in working with the medium.
