Andrei Tarkovsky: Film and Painting - 0 views

  • It is here that we find the basic difference and juxtaposition between his film aesthetics and those of Pasolini and Fellini. Pasolini raises the language of film to that of literature, writing, with its syntax, semiotics, etc. Fellini’s method, where each scene is put together in the same way as a painting is on canvas, was even more unacceptable to Tarkovsky. What will you have if, instead of a figure drawn on canvas by the artist we see a live actor? This is a surrogate painting, a “live picture”.
  • Saint Sebastian, from the painting by Antonello da Messina

    A great article on Tarkovsky's films and their connections to painting. Solaris is highlighted - along with Nostalghia and Andrei Rublev.

van Gogh's Letters - Unabridged - 0 views

    I borrowed a book of van Gogh's letters from a local library, and what can I say, I'm not only totally fascinated by him, but feel so bad when reading the last letter he wrote his brother before his death. His artwork and writing both are greatest treasure an artist can't live without! Ian

    Free online courses for artistic knowledge & appreciation.
  •  
    That's actually a very nice set of resources. It's unfortunate the administrators of the site decided to call it Learn-gasm. A site that focuses on higher education shouldn't be stuck in junior-high level humor.
