Two hundred years after its opening and a century after acquiring its first work by Vincent van Gogh, the National Gallery in London is hosting the UK’s biggest-ever Van Gogh exhibition. The artist is not only one of the most beloved 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 artist’s 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 possibly what caused his notorious breakdown, but it didn’t hold back his creativity as he created masterpiece after masterpiece. Explore one of art history’s most pivotal periods in his once-in-a-century show. Directed by David Bickerstaff Made in close collaboration with the National Gallery. An NCPA-Seventh Art Productions (UK) Presentation Age Limit: 6+ Late entry will not be permitted.
