Alex Katz #5



"Renowned pop artist Alex Katz is pictured at work surrounded by his large paintings, some of which feature Ada, his wife and muse of over 55 years. Katz has occupied his live-work studio for 45 years, since a group of artists bought the building in 1968. In spite of its rundown location, Katz fell in love with the space: “I wasn’t too enthusiastic because it was like you were in the ghetto” he says. “But when I saw the top floor – nineteen windows, the building was beautiful – I couldn’t say no.”" (uit: Art Studio America van Hossein Amirsadeghi en Maryam Eisler, bron: BBC)
