[Chronolie]

magnifique!

like the mood setting trumpet in the beginning. would be nice to linger on the large paintings a bit longer, rather than giving them the same facetime as his numerous ink on paper studies. but overall, i like.

fantastic...the best 7.40 minutes I've had all week! Great to see so much of his work all in one place Thanks

You know the name of the painting on 2:16?

[polymath7]

@Zalbeon It's called 'Elegy for the Spanish Republic'.

Powerful work.

[simplerainbow]

What a kind... kind man, Robert was.

[mj1010]

Sucks. Motherwell sucks.

[tombeardman]

Digital images don't do this work justice. Go see the work where ever it may be and whenever it is shown. Also look up John Beardman, living abstract expressionist that does some great work.

I muted the sound, much better.

Good art doesn't require any extra drama.

strong and tragic ...

[MonaAllegra]

Thank you, Artpopulus! I love Motherwell's work (and your choice of music.) I am a graduate of a major american art school. Robert Motherwell gave our commencement address. He chose to speak on "How not to commit suicide." So Motherwell and so outrageously appropriate. I still cherish the memory.

[Ouwouwou]

ty so much for this

[polymath7]

Having watched (and listened to) this video dozens of times, I've grown keenly curious as to the content of the song's lyrics, and would be grateful to anyone who might conduct me to some place I may find an English translation; for you see, I don't talk no French.

[uweetnix]

Hello. Although I've collected the work of  Leo Ferre for several decades, it seems he rarely if ever had his words translated into English. The music, in my experience, often transcends the need for a literal translation, as you've no doubt noticed. And although virtually unknown in the US, he remains a God in France.

[TedRob1958]

This is a truely lovely (and I mean lovely) combination of music and art the work of two often overlooked artists. Bravo Leo' Bravo Robert

[polymath7]

I'm already quite familiar with Motherwell; I don't suppose you could spare a moment to tell me a bit about the other?

[geertoliver]

It captures the spirit of his ouvre and contextualises inividual works that I never fully appreciated. Thanks + well done!

Motherwell is one of my favorite artists from this century. I especially like his Elegies and his Open series.

[1886wand]

This makes it clear that Motherwell is one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. The pictures are very powerful. And the music is haunting.

[blancaoraa]

maravilloso todo

merveilleux tant les dessins comme la musique.

[DaK1LL]

what song is this.. tres sexy

[polymath7]

Extraordinary My admiration for Motherwell has grown steadily over the past couple years, and at this point I consider him one of the five greatest artists of the twentieth century.

[relaxclown]

Moving. I stumbled on this... I am neither an artist nor knowledgable of any. However, this piece was extraordinarily moving. It recruited emotions that were as unexpected as they were overwhelming. Phenominal.

[DudeismMedia]

Beautiful! there is nothing else to say!

[palabraserrantes]

Amo su obra!

Gracias por este trabajo!

[Cybelephotography]

Wonderful selection of music, Leo singing about "la mort".. and those paintings.. with writings.. about love, death.. and life.. "estoy vivo" said the lastest painting. Fabulous, as always. thanks for sharing
