This episodeโs Community Spotlight is on New York-based artist, Tim Clancy! Check out his Saatchi Art profile at https://www.saatchiart.com/timotrio.
You forgot to mention The Dark Knight – I am pretty sure I have seen in interviews or behind the scenes stuff that they said the approach to the Joker's makeup was heavily influenced by Francis Bacon work
Thank you so much for all the work you put into your videos. They are incredibly detailed and a joy to watch. I recommend you to others any chance I get, please keep it up!
Great content as always and hands down most binge-able channel on youtube. I'd love to see you do a vid on Adolf Wolfli.
Francis Bacon… is shite
What about his influence on silent hill mind breaking creature and main artist Masahiro Ito?
What is the host Ig? I wanna paint her!
Please make a video about Terese Nielsen
I love this channel and now I need to know everything about the Bacon/Freud "rival[ry]."
Beacon has inspired the artists behind the design of the game Silent Hill! I would like to see an episode of "Know the Artist" about Gustave Dorรฉ!
you should work for christies or shotebys
please do sigmar polke
A flawless summary of a remarkable artist for whom the only way out of hell was through hell, c/o his incredible brushwork. Ta, SC!
Hey haven't watched your stuff in a while got all caught up today.
Faye Wei Wei is a contemporary painter. From uk. Her work is beautiful. If you can find out information on her to make a video, would be really cool.
confirming I'm not sent by anyone to say this
I don't get any of this arty things just here for this pleasant lady
The cat in the thumbnail is too adorable ๐โโฌ
I have a question. Do artists seek out pain in life to inspire art? Not just painting, but I've noticed this trend in performance as well. Or is it the other way round that the deepest scars produce the most striking works?
Again, another brilliant film. Thank you. I would love to see you do a film on Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and/or Die Brรผcke
woah
Some more pop culture references: In the 1989 Batman movie, Jack Nicholson's Joker (who mutilates a lover and calls it a work of art) is defacing an art gallery with his gang, ripping and vandalizing every work they can find… until he suddenly reaches Bacon's 'Figure With Meat,' pausing his henchmen from destroying it because it's the only one he likes. Twenty years later, in The Dark Knight, the smeared and evolving makeup style used on Heath Ledger's interpretation of the Joker was directly inspired by Bacon's portraits, according to director Christopher Nolan.
I was waiting for this one and it didnโt disappoint! Bacon is such a fascinating figure, well done. Thank you
several circles has filled the void that was left by the art assignment, you make great videos, I watch them almost every day.
โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
The portrayal of the artist being as important and equal to the art itself is amazing as always. Thank you for these videos and I can't wait to see your take on Dรผrer sometime in the future๐ค.
I watch ever upload!
Please do Giacommetti!
Not personally a massive fan of Bacon's work, but I can see why a lot of people are as it's quite unique and emotive. The quote about paining self portraits due to having no one else left around him to paint, is nearly as sad as the fact his Dad sent him to Roaring 20s Berlin to try and "straighten him out" is hilarious!
This is my favorite channel for art history – your videos are so well realized and I always discover something new. Great work.
This channel is amazing.
Congratulations – an excellent overview crammed full of references. Very well researched and presented – a tricky thing to undertake for a short intro. I thought that I'd not learn anything new but, to be fair, I did not know about the German Shepherd!
That's so crazy, just watched 1985 documentary Brutality of Fact documentary on Francis Bacon. Thank you for doing this. Huge fan of your channel! ๐บ๐ป๐ธ
Wonderful presentation (I watched it 3 times)… I thank you both for your dedication to art appreciation!
I like to think much of the imagery in the Silent Hill video game franchise is inspired by Bacon as well!
Iโm so happy you covered him. I discovered him a couple years back and it changed my life. His paintings kind of showed me what art was capable of and inspired me to start doing it myself
18:02 Death by Snu Snu it is, lol
Oh my God! Thank you๐
Absolutely brilliant!!! No one captured the brutality of the 20th century better than Bacon. Thank you as always…
Hi guys, thanks for another great upload. Rachel, brilliant as ever. Pain in paint, angst in art, chaos in charcoal, emotions in emulsion and always with a side serving of war, persecution and repression. What art would we have today without it I wonder, plain pastoral pictures in pastels?! Lol, loved "London's demi monde" btw.
As an artist also, id like the uniqueness of his creations.
Wonderful episode!!! Thank you. Long time fan of Francis Bacon.
my personal favorite great video
One of my favorite artists. Thanks!
Ahhh, one of my favorite artists! Love this video, guys!
I've only heard Francis Bacon's name before but knew nothing of his work. As always thank you for educating me! ๐
These videos always pull me out of an art block absolutely adore bacons work and to revisit is just nostalgically refreshing. Should Talk abt Margaret keane next โฃ๏ธ
My favorite artist
