R B Kitaj is counted among the world's greatest living artists, a figurative painter from the generation that includes his friends David Hockney and Lucian Freud. This month the largest ever exhibition of his work opened at the Tate Gallery in London and will travel to Los Angeles and New York. He has never before agreed to be filmed and this Late Show special offers a unique insight into his life and work. He speaks frankly about his first sexual encounters in the brothels of Havana, his attitudes to erotica, his love of the movies, his Jewishness, exile and death - all the themes of his art.
His paintings celebrate the richness of his background, creating memorable images full of energy, colour and character. They are brought to life with his vivid story-telling and readings from his journals. A Rothschild-Auerbach production tor BBCtv
