GREAT ARTISTS
An illuminating documentary DVD series examining the lives and works of 14 of the greatest artists of the western world. What influences shaped these outstanding artists and what makes their work so remarkable and draws us to these paintings centuries later? Written and presented by art historian Tim Marlow. |
|||||||
|
Giotto Giotto di Bondone (1266-1337), the son of a Tuscan shepherd, became the most important artist of his age with his naturalistic and emotive treatment of medieval Christian iconography. He enjoyed a level of fame no artist had previously enjoyed, receiving commissions from princes, kings and Popes, that helped raise the status of the artist from craftsman to poet or philosopher. Beginning his apprenticeship aged 12, Giotto spent a decade in the flourishing city-state of Florence at a time of great cultural change. He worked on the Franciscan Centre, developing a more realistic and emotional approach to faces and figures and greater use of perspective. This was a departure from the Byzantine style that had previously dominated Christian iconography. Commissions poured in, paving the way for the Renaissance masters such as Leonardo and Michelangelo. For the first time, an artist had developed an individual style. Leonardo Over the course of his amazing life (1452-1519), Leonardo da Vinci created what were to become some of the most famous paintings in the world, including his great masterpiece, the Mona Lisa – undoubtedly the best known painting in the history of art. As well as painting startlingly emotive and intimate religious scenes, including The Last Supper, and St John the Baptist, Leonardo led the way in two new genres of painting – those of portraiture and historical imagery. His methodical approach to art developed several important painting techniques. The man’s genius, not just an artist, but as a scientist, an engineer and an inventor, a man who drew plans of flying machines and made accurate studies of human anatomy, meant that his was a truly unique contribution to the development of art in Europe. Great Artists Volume 2 - Durer, Michelangelo DVD Format $77.00 PED303 |
|||||||
|
Durer Albrecht Durer’s (1471-1528) greatness lay in his ability to capture an unparalleled degree of reality in his art. He was a master of the woodcut and the etching, with which he created nightmarish visions of the apocalypse, and his most accomplished works in oil are the very first individual-figure self-portraits in the history of art. Like Leonardo, Durer studied the world around him with a scientist’s eye, making detailed studies of plants and animals, which remain unrivalled to this day. From humble beginnings as a craftsman, Durer became revered across Europe. His workshop in the German city of Nuremberg provided a centre for what was to become known as the ‘Northern Renaissance’. This established the artistic traditions of northern Europe as equal to those of Italy. Michelangelo Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475–1564) stands alone as an artist, so great were his achievements. His career spanned seven decades, and he was instrumental in the development of a style of art that has come to represent the pinnacle of the Italian High Renaissance. Michelangelo's unrivalled genius, violent temper and singular determination to pursue his art meant that he often worked alone, undertaking great feats of physical and intellectual endurance. As an architect, he designed the dome of St Peter’s in the Vatican, the single most important church in Christendom. As a sculptor, he produced figures of unimaginable quality, such as his iconic statue of David. As a painter, he single-handedly undertook the decoration of the ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, regarded as one of the finest achievements in the history of art. Great Artists Volume 3 - Raphael, Titian DVD Format $77.00 PED304 |
|||||||
|
Raphael Raffaello Santi (1483-1520) is known for the beauty of his portraits and the perfectly balanced composition of his larger historical paintings. His works are sensual and measured studies of the human form. Known for his many studies of the Madonna and Child, Raphael became a favourite of the papal court, undertaking commissions from Popes Julius II and Leo X. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Raphael did not simply copy from nature, but formed a certain idealised concept of beauty. Such was the admiration for his idealised forms that they were adopted by artists and art academies as the model of beauty until the end of the 19th century. Titian The Renaissance Movement found a new centre, the city of Venice, and a new master, Tiziano Vecellio (c1485-1576). Known to English speakers as Titian, he did more to establish the principles of modern painting than any of his Florentine contemporaries. He painted most often in oil and his radical approach to light, colour and composition set him apart from those around him, and his free brush strokes are widely regarded as more expressive than anything that had come before, providing an alternative to the linear and sculptural Florentine tradition championed by the likes of Michelangelo and Raphael. Titian’s enormous talent was quickly recognised across Europe, and he received commissions to paint portraits of some of the most powerful figures of the age, including Pope Paul III, and the Holy Roman Emperor, King Charles V of Spain. Great Artists Volume 4 - Bruegel, El Greco DVD Format $77.00 PED305 |
|||||||
|
Bruegel Little is known about Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1525/30 – 1569) whose enigmatic, humorous, sometimes, grotesque paintings remain among the most distinctive examples of Dutch art. In Bruegel’s fantastical landscapes, it was the common peasant folk who took centre stage, often sidelining the saints and members of the holy family who were the supposed subjects of many of his artworks. His paintings and etchings served as windows into other worlds, illustrating the mountains and rivers of far-off lands, a geography that was exotic to people in the flat Netherlands. Bruegel lived through a period of growth in trade and commerce and immense social and religious upheaval. Among the first artists to paint almost exclusively for the growing class of merchants and intellectuals, Bruegel’s ability to combine gritty humour with a unique style of political comment has never been equalled. El Greco Greek artist Domenicos Theotocopolous (1541-1614), dubbed ‘El Greco’ by the Spaniards, was among the most distinctive artists of the early modern period. In fact, his work was so ahead of its time in its departure from the naturalism and careful modelling of the Renaissance that it was all but ignored for 300 years! This visionary artist varied his style enormously throughout the course of his career. In Italy, his paintings reflected the bright colouring and loose brushstrokes of Venetian masters such as Tintoretto, while in Spain the fervour of religious belief and lingering medieval sensibilities added an emotional intensity and a mystical quality to his work. The result was a highly individualistic style of painting which, though heavily criticised at the time, was enormously influential. El Greco’s dramatic approach paved the way for the Baroque, and 20th century Expressionism. Great Artists Volume 5 - Rubens, Velazquez DVD Format $77.00 PED306 |
|||||||
|
Rubens Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) is highly regarded as the chief exponent of the Baroque style, merging the grace of the Italian High Renaissance with the realism and landscapes of the northern tradition. His career mirrors the rapidly developing politics of an emergent Europe, as he painted not only for the Italian nobility, but also for the Spanish, French and English courts. A highly versatile artist, Rubens was equally at home painting altarpieces, historical and mythological scenes, portraits and landscapes. He is perhaps best known for the voluptuous female nudes, which are often found in his large-scale mythological allegories. These were so influential that, even today, portraits of generously proportioned women are described as ‘Rubenesque’. Rubens became the most celebrated painter of the early 17th century and did much to develop different genres of painting. Velazquez In a Spain dominated by a fervent religiosity, Diego de Silva y Velazquez (1599-1640) emerged as a master practitioner of a secular form of art. His masterpiece, Las Meninas, is a painting full of mystery and intrigue, a work of startling intellectual and artistic complexity, the culmination of a unique relationship between the artist and his patron, King Philip IV of Spain. Velazquez single-handedly redefined the image of the Spanish monarchy and while his output was dominated by royal portraiture, he also produced psychologically useful studies of people on the margins of society, such as the buffoons of the royal court or the poor people of Seville. Velazquez’s unique painting style, which combined dramatic lighting, intense colouring and increasingly loose brushstrokes, was dominated by a single preoccupation – to capture a degree of naturalism never achieved before in the history of art. His work came to be admired by many in the centuries that followed, and as the French painter Edouard Manet remarked, "he is the painter’s painter." Great Artists Volume 6 - Rembrandt, Vermeer DVD Format $77.00 PED307 |
|||||||
|
Rembrandt Rembrandt Van Rijn (1606-1669), was a 17th century visionary painter, sketcher and exponent of the realist style. Rembrandt's passion for painting led him to Amsterdam, where the tolerant new Dutch republic encouraged artists to work freely. He began painting the heads of family and neighbours and produced hundreds of works, but focused most heavily on himself. His own face became a source of fascination and the central vehicle of his work - in total, Rembrandt created 75 self-portraits. Commissioned by the Surgeons Guild to paint The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Tull, Rembrandt demonstrated masterly dexterity in portraying the human form. But his genius was in creation of powerful introspective portraits using thick pastes, eschewing the trend of lighter tones and gentle strokes. He died poor, leaving "an immense body of work that has never been surpassed in its insight into the human condition." Vermeer Dutch painter Jan van der Meer (1632-1675), painted domestic scenes which displayed a mastery of perspective and a playful ambiguity. Though he painted less than 40 works and died unknown outside his hometown of Delft, today Vermeer is considered as large a talent as Rembrandt. Son of an innkeeper and art dealer, Vermeer was immersed in the local art scene from a young age. It was the golden age of Dutch painting and he became the most respected painter in Delft, even though he only completed two to three paintings a year, such was his attention to detail! Vermeer's early works were based on mythology and Biblical subjects, his later ones on domestic scenes. But his virtues remained constant: the portrayal of the effects of light; a prodigious sense of perspective; an almost photographic sense of realism; a talent for composition; and a sophisticated ability to draw the viewer into a ‘dialogue’ with the picture. Great Artists Volume 7 - Turner, Van Gogh DVD Format $77.00 PED308 |
|||||||
|
Turner JMW Turner (1775–1851), was a visionary painter whose shocking use of colour, sublime use of light and tendency to abstraction divided contemporary critics. But today, he is considered maybe the finest British artist of all time. Turner was a precocious talent who was accepted at 14 to study at the fledgling Royal Academy of Arts, the institution that helped make his reputation. He started painting watercolours, and his prolific work, aided by experimentation with the newest synthetic colours, won him many patrons. But this scruffy and eccentric man was more interested in exploring the boundaries of painting, than being flavour of the day. Turner worked increasingly in oils as he explored several main themes; the smallness of man against the forces of nature; the qualities of light reflected in the sea and sky; and the ambiguous feelings engendered by the Industrial Revolution. His works, with their almost frenzied brushstrokes, expressed a romantic affinity with the sublime; and the abstraction of many of the forms influenced later movements in impressionism. Van Gogh In ten turbulent years, Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890) painted over 1,000 works, but sold only one of them. Lonely and mad, he shot himself aged 37. Van Gogh was the son of a preacher, who loved nature from a young age and showed early artistic promise. The painter took a while to develop his style, moving from area to area, always broke and often depressed. It was in Arles where his creativity flourished, the Impressionists inspiring him to use more rapid brushstrokes and bright colours. Van Gogh returned to certain subjects (sunflowers, self-portraits) again and again in an effort to fight his mental darkness and works like Starry Night, with its swirling skies, were psychological self-portraits through the medium of landscapes. However, his psyche was deteriorating and he spent time in asylums. Painting intensely in periods of sanity, his perception of colours and light intensified by his condition, many of his finest works come from the artist's last few months. The foreboding Wheatfield with Crows was painted two weeks before he committed suicide. But his work will live forever. |

Music Behind The Scenes
Music has become a powerful tool for today's directors that can in seconds create an emotional shift of enough intensity to reduce an audience to tears, laughter or have them jumping out of their seats. Music Behind the Scenes offers an entertaining and emotional journey into this most crucial aspect of all great movies. It is the definitive look at the way music has become an integral part of movie-making. The series looks at specific movie genres and uses a wealth of instantly recognisable film footage, archive clips and interviews with major directors, their composers and stars. 6 x 60 minute episodes Produced by Gavin Alexander, Directed by Howard Hull ©2001CreaTVty Ltd and Take 2 TV Partnerships Co-production in association with NBD Television Ltd Music Behind the Scenes Series Set of 6 DVDs $484.00 SBD104 Or DVDs available individually $88.00 each Music Behind The Scenes: Love & Seduction The history of music for love scenes is also the history of our own changing and contradictory attitudes to love and sex. The music for love scenes is often among the most cliched in cinema: swelling strings, lush themes and sentimental arrangements. This episode will focus on the traditional compositions for a love scene and how, more recently some composers have avoided or reinvigorated the cliches to create some of the most emotional examples of film music. Films include: Love Story, The English Patient, Romeo & Juliet, Emma, Dangerous Liaisons, Don't Look Now. Interviews include: Anthony Mighella, Stephen Frears, Nic Roeg, Francis Lai, Saul Zaentz, Gabriel Yared, Walter Murch, George Fenton, Pino Donaggio, Rachel Portman, Maurice Jarre. DVD Format $88.00 SBD105 Music Behind The Scenes: Suspense This episode examines how composers create suspense and terror in a movie scene and how sweet melodies are used to subvert the shocking visual material of a film. Scenes expressing horror are preceded by an extended drone note to replicate anticipation of terror. Composers play with this convention - Bernard Hermann composer for Psycho recreated sounds of stabbing with short staccato notes from violins while Walter Murch used silence and sound effects for dramatic effect in The Godfather. Films include: Chinatown, Halloween, Midnight Express, The Godfather, Mona Lisa, Donnie Brasco. Interviews include: Jamie Lee Curtis, Jerry Goldsmith, John Carpenter, Giorgio Moroder, Michael Madsen, Mike Newell, Alan Parker, David Puttman, Steven Berkoff. DVD Format $88.00 SBD106 Music Behind The Scenes: Heroics Heroes such as James Bond and Superman are frequently preceded on screen by the sound of their own theme tune. This episode will uncover the contrast between scores for fictional heroic characters like James Bond to real life heroes such as Dith Parn in The Killing Fields. The program will also look at the way Eastern & Western films have borrowed from each other's conventions of heroic music in such films as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Last Emperor. Films include: Dr. No, Gladiator, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Rocky, Tomorrow Never Dies, The Last Emperor, The Killing Fields. Interviews include: Ridley Scott, Bill Conti, Ang Lee, David Arnold, Ryuichi Sakamoto, David Byrne, Hans Zimmer, Bernardo Bertolucci, James Schamus, Tan Dun, Sir George Martin and Mike Oldfield. DVD Format $88.00 SBD107 Music Behind The Scenes: Humour The conventions of slapstick humour were set with the silent films of Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin accompanied by silly sound effects of bird whistles, spring and drum bangs. Henry Mancini turned convention on its head for the Pink Panther movies and created a theme as memorable as James Bond, although embodying all the inefficient pomposity of Inspector Clouseau himself. This episode will focus on how music can enhance a narrative to gain the best creative effect for the movie. Films include: Beverly Hills Cop, Nurse Betty, Life of Brian, Brazil, Airplane, The Full Monty and Young Frankenstein. Interviews include: John Morris, Anne Dudley, Elmer Bernstein, Harold Faltermeyer, Michael Kamen, Geoffrey Burgon, Rolfe Kent, Jim Abrahams, Terry Gilliam, Neil LaBute, Terry Jones, Carl Davis. DVD Format $88.00 SBD108 Music Behind The Scenes: The Chase The chase scenes in films are often the most memorable. Today, the special effects and stunts of blockbusters such as Mission Impossible have turned action films into a series of chase scenes, demanding a constant stylistic variety from director and composer to keep up the tension. In Speed the tension of chase scenes can become the premise for the entire film. This episode illustrates the tricks that composers use to keep the viewer on the edge of their seat throughout extended scenes. Films include: Terminator 2, Speed, Mission Impossible, The Great Escape, Thelma & Louise and Diva. Interviews include: Elmer Bernstein, Mark Mancina, Vladimir Cosma, Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, Brad Fiedel, Lalo Schifrin, Jean-Jacques Beineix, Jan de Bont, David McCallum, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton. DVD Format $88.00 SBD109 Music Behind The Scenes : The Independents This episode will focus on independent cinema's use of conventional music in unconventional settings. From pop, jazz, rap and black music, directors such as Spike Lee, Jim Jarmusch and David Lynch used these soundtracks to convey a sense of detachment and sinister themes within a laconic style of filmmaking. Films include: Clockers, Straight Story, Edward Scissorhands, Crash, Fargo, Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence, Once Upon a Time in The West, The Good The Bad and The Ugly. Interviews include: Ennio Morricone, Angelo Badalamenti, Ryuichi Sakamaoto,Terence Blanchard, Spike Lee, Howard Shore, David Lynch. DVD Format $88.00 SBD110 |
