Interview with:Nicolas Bilder [nbilder]
ART
 | What do you do? How do you define yourself as an artist? Art is a path. You will not see highways, signs, ads or rebates on this track. I started to draw on brushes on iPhone and iPad and I am slowly walking towards real paint. Or I will mix them. I do not know. I learn every second something new. |
| What is your message? I do not have a message. Dive yourself if you need any... |
| Your biography in four lines. I collaborate with les-Souffleurs.fr since 2001. I do movies, write scripts and go more and more towards paint. |
| Do you upload your work to the web? If so, where could we see it? A part of it can be seen on twitter, search for nicobild.
Or here : effractions.free.fr |
| How is an idea born? For you, what is inspiration? I give some freedom to my hands and I wait. |
| What role does technology play in your creative process? Technology is a tool you get and put back as far as you need. |
| What is art? A kind of soul expression even if I remain unsure about souls... |
| When do you get your best ideas? At morning, between 5 and 7 AM. |
| How do you evaluate whether an idea is good or not? My heart keeps resonating with it. |
| Three creative ideas that you would have liked to have created? The coal for sketching, the feather for writing, the brush for painting but this not a question about Art. |
| When and how did you begin to see yourself as an artist? Recognition even from few is enough when it is sincere. |
| Why do so many artists and creators have such volatile personalities? They do not belong to themselves. |
| Do you consider yourself postmodern? Postmodernism will be buried after all, these distinctions are useless. |
| How should a work of art be evaluated? Recognition and possession desire grow side by side. Silliness too. |
| Must an artist reinvent him/herself everyday? Supermarkets often change places for their goods. Artists can do the same if they like to increase their sales. |
| Which artists do you admire and how do they influence your work? I like Picasso, Bacon, Klein, Kandinsky, their influences are permanent and mixed. The list is not closed. |
| What do you think about public funding for the arts? This is the best way to prevent private collections from retrieving all Art pieces. |
| Is art necessary? To me, it is more and more obvious. I could not tell about the others. |
| Does it pain you to let go of a piece you have sold? No. |
| Is a work of art purchased, or is it better said, that it is the artist who is bought? I am sorry but how could you buy me ? I do not sell myself. |
| In art, there is no guide. How do you know what the next step is? I know more and more when it is time to stop. |
| How do you feel about the fact that the pieces exhibited in contemporary art museums are often of artists already deceased? Life and museums are conflictious. |
| What role have the figures of art dealer, gallery owners, representatives, and intermediaries in general played in your career? I am a beginner. I do not know any of them. |
| What types of jobs do you usually do? Filming, editing, writing. |
| Which of your jobs or tasks do you most enjoy? I do not enjoy less any of them. |
| Do you personally collect any items? No |
| Which websites do you frequently visit? www.poezibao.typepad.org |
| What advice would you give to those just beginning? Be yourself even if it takes years. |
