Exploring Modern Art
FILM: Wassily Kandinsky (50 minutes)
Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944), Russian painter, is generally regarded as an orginator of abstract painting and one of the most important innovators in modern art, both as an artist and as a theorist. Kandinsky’s unrelenting quest for new forms produced diverse works: abstract and figurative, romantic, colourful, and complex.

Exploring Modern Art
FILM: René Magritte (51 minutes)
René Magritte (1898-1967) was the greatest painter of the Surrealist movement. Today, the paradoxical blend of beauty and menace in his imagery still has the power to unnerve the viewer. This film sets out to analyse why the paintings are so compelling, and how the events in his life influenced his work.

FILM: Marcel Duchamp (50 minutes)
Born in France, Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968)– painter, sculptor, and author – was associated with Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism, though he avoided any strict alliances. Duchamp’s early works were Post-Impressionistic in style, though he eventually turned toward the avant-garde. Duchamp’s work is characterised by humour, a wide variety of media, and its incessant probing of the boundaries of art.
