What is your name: Clara A. Jackson
What field are you in: I am the Director of the Artist Collective, Clear-Productions
What motivated you to get in the line of work you are in: I live and breathe arts, but have no talent. My talent is in my eye. I found my niche as an agent in New York at a large agency at a young age. I learned to earn a living doing what I love.
What's the best thing about your job: Developing my talent. It makes my world complete.
You have a passion for the arts when did that start: As a young child. My home was filled with it on every level. Books,music and fashion also facilitated my passion.
You feature artists, what prompted that: Gut feelings about how far they can evolve artistically.I believe their potential is unlimited if they do their own thing. Not try to turn them into a throwaway product.
What has the response been: Great! However, I have been accused of being "too safe". I don't care, these people have to make a living! However, I do have a new trick up my sleeve as we speak.....
What is your favorite genre of art: #1-Photography #2 Raw, intellectual street art #3 Outsider art.
What is the most moving piece of art you have seen in person: The Little Dancer, by Degas
Are there any new exhibits you are interested planning on seeing: The Alexander McQueen Costume Institute Show at The Met.
Who is your favorite artist of all time, and why: Dilemma: Claude Monet/ Walker Evans/ Julius Schulman/ Iggy Pop/Hunter S. Thompson/ Coco Chanel/ Our Earth/ Mahalia Jackson/Edward Gorey. They are all originals!
