Van Gogh: Poets and Lovers
Running time: 90 mins
200 years after its opening and a century after acquiring its first Van Gogh works; the National Gallery is hosting the UKs biggest ever Van Gogh exhibition. Van Gogh is not only one of the most beloved artists of all time, but perhaps the most misunderstood. This film is a chance to re-examine and better understand this iconic artist. Focusing on his unique creative process, Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers explores the artists years in the south of France, where he revolutionised his style. Van Gogh became consumed with a passion for storytelling in his art, turning the world around him into vibrant, idealised spaces and symbolic characters. Poets and lovers filled his imagination; everything he did in the south of France served this new obsession. In part, this is what caused his notorious breakdown, but it didnt hold back his creativity as he created masterpiece after masterpiece. Explore one of art historys most pivotal periods in this once-in-a century show. Made in close collaboration with the National Gallery.
