Albers was a beautiful teacher and an impossible person. He wasn’t easy to talk to, and I found his criticism so excruciating and so devastating that I never asked for it. Years later, though, I’m still learning what he taught me, because what he taught me had to do with the entire visual world. He didn’t teach you how to ‘do art’. The focus was always on your personal sense of looking.. ..I consider Albers the most important teacher I’ve ever had, and I’m sure that he considers me one of his poorest students.
