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 reexamine 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 revolutionized his style. Van Gogh became consumed with a passion for storytelling in his art, turning the world around him into vibrant, idealized 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. EXHIBITION ON SCREEN presentations are cinematic immersions into the worlds best loved art, accompanied by insights from the worlds leading historians and arts critics.
