David Thompson

A BAFTA award winning documentary looking at Monet's work in London, particularly with the development of the theme of the dispersion of light by mist on the waters of the Thames.

A documentary feature that attempts to approach the meaning of Francis Bacon's vision of the human predicament, without using words, just solely through it's imaginative and emotional effect.

Ann Turner delves into the atmosphere of the works and reveals, besides Degas the gifted draughtsman and painter, also an experimental graphic artist, sculptor, photographer and poet.

David Thompson’s wordless film from 1963 presents an unsettling montage of images from Bacon’s major mid-period works.

A documentary feature offering a general introduction to the work of the painter J.M.W. Turner.

In Georges Seurat’s work, the viewer will surely never “miss the point”. The son of wealthy Parisians took modern life as his theme. Excited by recent theories of colour, he developed the technique of pointillism, whereby individual colour-dots, set side by side on the canvas, meld, in the eye of the viewer, into whole colour-surfaces. Dying suddenly at age 31, he left behind only a few large paintings, including A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. David Thompson investigates, with the aid of such artists as Henry Moore, the artistic and theoretical work of the man who founded Post-Impressionism in modern painting.
