Studio Visit: Artist Alteronce Gumby on His Weekly MoMA Visits, and Why Seeing Great Art is Like Reading a Book

Katie White, Artnet News, 25 February 2021
I like art that has a delayed read to it. Let me explain that. I see a painting that I like and there’s something in the work that holds my attention longer than 30 seconds or two minutes. I’m drawn to works that were given a lot of attention to details. The devil is in the details. It’s in the color composition or orientation of the work or the clever use of contrasting materials that look or feel very seamless.
