I’m glad they were able to get a lot of good info out of him and out of the people he’s around a lot. I can understand the urge to stay out of the limelight, but it’s amazing how guarded one can be and still be able to master artistic [self] expression! I don’t know, maybe it works for him.
The most important lesson I can probably take from this is how well he treats people and how much that plays an underlying role in his art.
I just hope that at some point, I get a chance to hear his “thick outer-borough New York accent” … hahaha
PS – By the way, I bought an Albert Watson book (by James Crump) tonight at the book store. I’m sure you’re already aware, but he’s got some really great stuff…
Thanks. Great read!!!
