Documentary about Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha, 52 mins., directed by Susanna Boehm. Music by Geraldine Mucha.
Alphonse Mucha (1860 - 1939) is the visionary master of Art Nouveau. Born in what is now known as the Czech Republic, Mucha had his artistic breakthrough in Paris in 1895 with his posters of the world famous actress Sarah Bernhardt. Mucha's extensive work consists of prints, paintings, drawings and design objects of global fame.

Since 1910, Charles R. Crane, an American millionnaire financed the highlight of Mucha's artistic work: "The Slav Epic". This series of 20 monumental paintings focusses on the history of Slavs. The film discovers these widely unknown paintings in a Moravian castle.

  • Ahoj, velmi mě art nouveau (a art deco) zajímá. Mám spoustu fotografií, knih a zdrojů. Jestli je někdo, kdo by chtěl o těchto směrech diskutovat nebo vyměnil nějaké obrázky. Stačí mi napsat. Budu ráda. Jana

  • I love your channel, nice clips. Beslutsstöd like this.

  • @xlaque Co to tady píšete? O Muchovi že v Čechách nikdo nic neví a zapomíná se na něj? Možná na Slovensku. V Praze má muzeum, je na známkách, učí se o něm ve školách, vydávají se o něm knihy... Jeho obrazy jsou často reprodukovány. A o studu se také nedá mluvit. Nashle.

  • Mucha is my favourite artist! In 1996 I ventured to Prague specifically in order to search out Mucha's works. By asking around, I managed to find Mucha's townhouse near Prague Castle. I knocked on the door, and Geraldine Mucha answered and gave me a private tour of the Mucha house! Although she kept it very neat and tidy, it was truly unchanged since the time of Alphonse Mucha, and contained many of his original prints and paintings. It was one of the highlights of my life.

  • I wish he was alive to see how much of an inspiration he really was.

  • @mirecek0210 Absolutne suhlasim, uči sa o všetkych smeroch, ale na secesiu, kde je prave Mucha najlepšim autorom, sa akosi stale zabuda. Všade na svete su hrdi na svoj pôvod, ale v našich končinach ako keby sme sa hanbili za slovanstvo, možno len kvôl tužbe zabudnuť na Rusko za obdobie 40 rokov...

    A neda mi nespomenuť aj osobny nazor-Mucha mal na rozdiel od väčšiny umelcov začiatku 20. storočia TALENT.
