Rembrandt
Dubbed in : English ( Original )
Rembrandt is one of those artists frequently called an all-time great but to really understand the biography you need to look at the detail, to have someone explain what we're looking at and why it's significant, to really grasp why he's so revered. Rembrandt's creativity gathered new energy in the closing years of his life. It is the art of these late years - soulful, honest and deeply moving - that indelibly defines our image of Rembrandt the man and the artist. This landmark exhibition is a unique opportunity to experience the passion, emotion and innovation of Rembrandt. The film features interviews with the show's curator Betsy Wieseman and Jonathan Bikker, Curator of Research at the Rijksmuseum. Artist Richard Twose will demonstrate Rembrandt's painting technique whilst Dolores De Sade will show the revolutionary way that Rembrandt worked with the printmaking, a brand new art form at the time. Philosopher AC Grayling will provide insight into Rembrandt's self-portraits. The film also explores the evolution of his artworks from his biblical masterpieces such as The Stoning of St Stephen (1625) to key masterpieces like The Nightwatch (1642) through to his later accomplishments such as The Jewish Bride (c.1665-1169).
