Three Colours Cézanne

Widely acknowledged to be the 'father' of Modern Art, Cézanne (1839-1906) did not find critical or public success in his lifetime. Given access to the most comprehensive gathering of Cézanne's paintings for over sixty years, provided by a major touring exhibition, this documentary analyses and re-assesses his achievements. A fascinating study of the artist’s life and work, it reveals an emotional turbulence that runs throughout his oeuvre and invites observations from a wide range of commentators.
