Eight films about modern art and a century of change.
Written and presented by Robert Hughes
3: The Landscape of Pleasure
Not all modern art protests. Much of the best art of our century celebrated the experience of pleasure. From the dazzling landscapes of the late Impressionists to the erotic nudes of Picasso and the serene interiors of Matisse, they found their liberation of colour and form in the South of France and the Mediterranean. This landscape of well-being is the setting of the film.
