Mark Bradford
Mark Bradford interview - I really understand the feeling of representing a place at a particular time, and not a very long time, and the idea of the patina of life. Things you see that other people haven’t seen.
He is 1. a great guy
2. speaking for people without overt politicisation
3. Has wonderful skills with making things look great, without the intention of making beauty perhaps?

Layer upon layer, white painted surface, lines to delineate area? a map? sanded away between these shapes.
Layers are so wonderful because the more you look the more you can find.
