The National Gallery's once-in-a-century exhibition comes to the big screen, with the master painter's creative process and unique talent on full display.
24/25 Art On Screen
Two hundred years after its opening and a century after acquiring its first Van Gogh work, the National Gallery is hosting the UK's biggest ever Van Gogh exhibition. Van Gogh is not only one of the most beloved artists of all time, he is perhaps the most misunderstood.
Made in close collaboration with the National Gallery, 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 artist's 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 didn't hold back his creativity as he created masterpiece after masterpiece. Explore one of art history's most pivotal periods in this once-in-a-century show.
