Ameztoy evading

Reading through this interview today with the Basque painter, Vicente Ameztoy.  The last question was: "¿Cómo definiría su obra y su trabajo?".  Really a hard question to even answer with a modicum of sincerity.  To which he replies:


No lo sé porque yo la veo de una forma completamente distinta que cualquiera que ve el cuadro desde fuera. Además, supongo que dentro de unos años ya habrá especialistas que se encarguen de calificar mi obra.


I like two things about this response.  The mention of an outside reality, in this case, that of the spectator, is very sincere and present in his painting.  The outside (outside perception, outside the home, outside the polis) is mentioned repeatedly in the interview.  It appears to work as a point of departure for the kinds of intertwining we see between landscapes and humans in his work.  Like this:

Secondly, I always find the evading answer that a team of specialists will soon take over the responsibility of answering what it all means to be humorous -- because it is, on some level, very true.
