This guy - Waldemar Januszczak - reaches out to art with such a vivid and sensual fashion he can make us feel his own sensations. The best historian & art critic ever seen on TV!
Makes it clear without dumbing it down. And in plain English!
Have you seen The Power of Art - Episode 2 Bernini by Simon Schama?
@@SIMKINYX Actually no, but I will. Thanks for the recommendation.
@Brenda Harper Thank you very much for this piece of advice Brenda.
@Brenda Harper A point made so well!
...having tasted Simoin's dish, I'd skip Waldemar's all together.🤭
He is a fantastic performer explaining the brilliance of Caravaggio. A joy to have as a teacher. I could listen to him all day
I'm so amazed at Waldemar's ability to bring art alive and teach at the same time. Brilliant!
Perhaps the most underrated channel on UA-cam. I’ve really enjoyed this series. Thank you 🙏
Fully agree.

@@DizGuys they need money to travel there :( forgive them please
This series is one of the best art documentaries. Waldemar provides such incredible insight into Baroque period. He has a great sense of humor too! I believe this was a Timeline special originally. I’ve watched them all at least thrice.
Yes, he's doing a really good job both in terms of content and presenting!
Thrice is nice!
I’m gonna cry over such perfect content😩😩😩
My husband and I have watched several of the documentaries from this series and they are absolutely the best art/history documentaries we have found. Fast moving and interesting.
i keep watching your videos over and over and every time feel i am seeing them for the first time
It’s been so long since I’ve seen someone showing this much love for the baroque. Thank you
I had the pleasure of visiting Italy some years ago. St Peter's was magnificent. The Sistine Chapel was awe-inspiring. To see these treasures in person is an experience I will never forget.
"Rome might have been where Baroque was born, but Naples was where it learned to scream and howl."
Wow, who knew Baroque was so metal
Check out some of Vivaldi's work! It's pretty metal.
Everybody in south and central europe know barroco is metal! 😉
Scream and howl? Thank the cabal of Naples for that.
"The baroque (pearl) is blobby, exuberant, misshapen, difficult to handle, and exciting in a deformed kind of way"...!!! How do I love this man's commentary and the PERSPECTIVE series? Let me count the ways...
This is the best of all the episodes so far I think. I"ve watched about 10 of them. So well done. Thank you Waldemar for these documentaries and your passion for art.
Waldemar Januszczak Thank you for sharing your passion for art in a way that is so insightful so informative and so emotionally powerful. This is THE BEST art documentary series I've ever watched:)
AMEN (& I AM NOT CATHOLIC!)
He is brilliant.absolutely brilliant.
Thank you Waldemar.
I don’t watch HBO, Netflix, Showtime, Hulu, or prime I am 100% hooked on his videos
Brilliant little doc. I really like that quote, "Architecture speaks to the body, not just the eyes." Baroque is my favourite architectural style!
Waldemar Januszczak makes art history so exciting and enjoyable!!! Can't get enough of these. Hoping for a lot more in the future.
My grandmother loved this so much she cried tears joy - this is absolutely fantastic.
lol wtf. tell her calm down nd watch some tv lmao
@@Alias_Attraction shut it
@@Sam-gw5pl ur name is uncle sam. you should shut it lmao

Another superior art documentary - it would never have occurred to me to signify two art movements by the differing shapes of two pearls !!!!!!
Fabulous filming and stunning locations add to the clearly spoken commentary - brilliant, thank you.
Waldemar, I appreciate your tutorials on art. I rediscovered it now at the end of my life. Being retired, I found my passion, like a new life. TY (Thank You)
He did the same for me. And when you read all the comments for many others too. Its great, is it not ? Exciting because there is so much to discover. I am in his debt.
This was really fantastic. Very enlightening take on a ubiquitous movement in art history that deserves this contemporary look.
That was wonderful. Baroque is the grunge, Generation X, of beautiful art.
I am deeply impressed and fascinated by such a masterpiece.
Dear Sir, words can not describe how special is your talking through these incredible ancient treasures. Love it. Never stop, please.
If it's Baroque, don't fix it!
LOL. Or it cost so much you are "Baroque"
Waldemar Januszczak has been for me one of the most brilliant art commentator and sociologist - I find myself , in a strange way , more awestruck at the architecture shown here than ever before - everything in Waldemar's presentations is done so expertly with great humor and impressive intellect - with much gratitude and admiration - I thank you , Mr Januszczak 😌
I really hope to one day be able to go to all these places and see these works of art. Until then, thank you so much for taking us through it, for the incredible story telling and insight.
My compliments to the photographer/s ! & to Waldemer who deserves all the praise we heap on him as well!
The programs, I watched all of them, fantastic, I choose them every hour of the day. Waiting for the next one, thank you.
Such an amazing series!! Have learned SO much!! Thank you!
We need a music history Waldemar. Baroque music is often heard by contemporary ears as mannered and fussy, or mathematically cold. Not to say it never exhibits those traits, to be sure, but the music like the art and the architecture is shot through with deadly wit and symbolic transgression. It's a language of signs and gestures, and the canvas is absolutely jammed with movement, contrast, color, light... and i think like the domes, in an odd way only just right when you listen from the right spot (mentally).
YES!!
Oof. I really love Baroque music. It’s amazing. I like Bach, Handel, and Scarlatti. I really like patterns and the figured bass. I don’t know about Waldemar, but there’s plenty of UA-cam and documentaries that capture the Baroque Period kindly.
@@keepyourshoesathedoor Trouble is that most of the composers that we think of as baroque -Bach,Handel etc are actually from the rococo and galant periods.True baroque composers are much less known.
That would be great!
There’s also a trumpet piece in the episode I’m trying to place. Any thought?
I was looking for a channel like this. Please do more.thank you so much!
This video has so little views? Anathema, anathema, anathema!
He Forgot to include Bernini's version of "David" which is also significant in Baroque Art to include when he talked about Bernini in comparison to Michaelanglo's version of "David" statue or sculpture.
It's amazing. I was breathless watching it. Professionally done film, great art historian.
Deep,thought, fun, knowledgeable, what a picture he paints in our minds and soul. Good wishes to all that pass this way
thank you for this excellent docu!!
Waldemar, du bist echt super! Durch deine Art zu erzählen, die Kunst vorzuführen macht das Zuschauen und Hören sehr unterhaltsam, spannend und vielseitig. Macht immer Lust auf mehr!!!! Vielen Dank.
Intense. However, I've learned a great deal more than I understood before seeing this video. Well done! Thank you!❣
I loooove Januszczak!!! His documentary on American art was fantastic. Just watched the series last week 🤩🤩🤩
Wonderful video with great music. I love baroque architecture. Great job.
I like this a lot and I’m glad that we have documentaries made by passionate people like this, but I don’t know why he’s so willing to dismiss a lot of what people see in art because personally I think it’s important. For example, he dismisses the observations and critiques of the sculpture 33:13 being some sort of dirty and incorrect remark, but then he asks how you would show that kind of intense experience, pointing to the sculpture saying “that’s how”. I think it’s a testament to the power of Baroque art that the choice in how to convey that sort of experience is precisely the expression of an intense religious ecstasy being orgasmic and explicitly so. The associations here of intense violent pain, intense orgasmic pleasure, and intense divine ecstasy are totally valid and are precisely what makes it so impactful. To me it’s like “yeah duh, of course.”
Wow! Wow! Wow! Very informative 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for this content! Now I understand more about Baroque which is I believe a part of my soul. Thank you sir. I hope to see all these someday. More power to you and your channel.
Subscribed.
Amazing as always!
An inspiring and impressive series...it has seriously rekindled my interest in classical art.
I love 😍 watching you and listening 🎧 to your channel video on UA-cam and you speak 👏 clearly.
It is absolutely stunning and beautiful art statue and sculpture. Memories of the past that will never be forgotten.
Thank 🙏 you for sharing this with us and telling us the story of the truth from the past. Well 👍 done and nice video!
One of the Best shows on YT if not the one! There is more in to this life than materials and that is what this show is about the philosophy of life..
Fantastic video. Really enjoyed it.
Great video. Borromini is the true architect of the Baldacchino in St. Peters and the Ecstasy of St Teresa of Avila was considered controversial in it's time also.
I have watched a few of these now. I am impressed and thanks to whom produced the montage of artists. Excellent and well done all the way around.
One of the best videos on tube.. I just learned a lot... Thx now can go back & see all the marvels again with different view & loaded with info.. Yes that info was missing to fully understanding & appreciate what I was seeing.. Thx a lot
This is such a masterful presentation of masterful art.
Another brilliant episode!!!
Super series. I keep watching it and enjoying it.thank you.
Thank you Perspective an exceptional series I’ve really enjoyed this journey, and thanks also Waldemar you have tricked & cajoled me where lesser men have failed, you are a master in your field.
This is a valuable and ingenious documentary.
Wow I rediscovered Rome and baroque thanks to you ! I wish i could give you more likes
Ditto!!
This is the masterpiece... ❤️
Amazing documentary
A brilliant insight into baroque. I have never heard of Francesco Borromini and now would like to learn more about this tragic figure.
Gorgeous cinematography and exciting narration: -perfect !
I agree, I like his narrating style. And the photography is excellent!
Yes, it has to be said. Cinematography very good. Editing too.
@@erictko85 yip! splendid altogether.
Fabulous! Thank you.
Fabulous!
Love your series love ur passion - Thank you very much Sir 🙏
What did we ever do to deserve a teacher like Waldemar?
He’s very passionate with his finger pointing oh my!
The perfectly rounded pearl = Renaissance; the equally exquisite, yet irregularly formed - almost grotesque- pearl = Baroque…loved Mr. Januszczak’s use of the perfect simile to distinguish the two.
Love it mate.
I have learned alot from these videos. Thank you, sir! Keep on.
Just a little suggestion, it would be great to have texts at the lower thirds everytime you mention an art or artist.
I was there, only as a child. But it left an indelible impression on this child,
now an old man. I've never seen it's like since, anywhere. Perhaps it was more than a small mind could take in. 'Overwhelmed' is
not a word here, it's all that this
11 year old could feel; feelings that just had nowhere to go.
They're lost within me still.
Sometimes I wonder if true genius is lost.
What are you talking about?
Where?
Waldemar, you're an outstandingly good teacher. Thankyou.
I never feel small when I look up at the universe, but when I look up at one of those Baroque ceilings, I feel small as a molecule.
It is architecture meant to both impress and intimidate.
Great documentary. Thank you.
I love how this guy, Waldemar, presents: his voice, his accent, his passion, his intimate knowledge and opinions.; everything.
I wish art in college was this interesting!
Amazing as always sir
1 class short of a minor in Art History alongside a BFA and I was never taught about the Cabal of Naples. I think that's what makes or breaks a good AH class: the narrative behind the imagry. Not just the symbolism or iconography of the artwork itself, but what was going on around the artist at the time outside of just the Widely Movement-Specific. This doc was fantastic and really shed light on perhaps /why/ I've always been drawn to the Baroque Movement as well as my own decisions I make in complsitions. Another wonderful Art History Doc from WJ.
I will never in my life forget the moment -- literally -- that I discovered Baroque architecture. I was wandering around Madrid in the middle of the night, near midnight, and I turned a corner and BOOM: I was suddenly in a square that was entirely of that architectural style -- out of nowhere! Can anyone tell me where I was? I had no idea at the time because I was just wandering around idly but it lit me up like a carnival.
Hey dude I LOVE YOU! Not in any weird way, you're just cool. Thanks for the content.
Thank you for helping me through this project
Excellent !
Beautiful explanation of the Baroque world of art, staggering exciting and astonishing , An amazing way of dining us away our way thru time, The total Baroque..
LOVING WALDEMAR on everyone of his historical docs!!!!
Thanks for making my Art Praxis easier to study for.
Waldemar Januszczak how cool is this guy his passion for all this is awesome literally draws you in an totally captivates you an has you feeling yourself enthralled,,, i am now a fan Waldemar , 100% !!!!!
If you ever visit Italy for Baroque add Turin as a stop. It is still not very touristy so you wont be lost in a sea of people, but it is incredibly charming with lots (and I mean LOTS) of Baroque architecture and painting. I always found it more beautiful when compared to (soulless) Milan
Milan is modernity (apart from Leonardo)... i hope you had some chocolate when in Turin...
I'd love to see a quick cut compilation of all the times he taps, smacks, and punches that map.
Waldemar really knows how to serve up an "Antipasto" that only make your appetite grow and hunger for more. Mangia! Ti fa' di bene! (Eat! It's good for you!) Buon Appetito! Can't wait for the main course. Mmm, Yummy!
Very Nice!
As an American it cracks me up every time he says "squaaaar" (square) Great series. Thanks for posting!
Amazing
When I seen the baldaccino in St Peter's I cried. The beauty is beyond words.
Fascinating
Very interesting and love this guy's sense of humor.
fantastico! Had no idea the Baroque had such a dark side. These vids are so engaging and interesting.
I remember visiting the church of San Ignacio in Rome just after my conversion and still in college. I remember seeing the ceiling and coming back out of the church and wondering at the huge vault that I had just seen. Only later did I learn that it was an optical illusion, a flat ceiling. I wish we had some commentary on the music, especially the Pachelbel Canon that played in the Ignacio, gloriously appropriate.
Do you by any chance know what the piece of music is that starts around 13.22, it's so beautiful.
Thanks!
Tu es formidable Monsieur. Magnifique!! Had to be expressed in French
Great video 👍
Thank you so much showing me such beautiful 🥰 art 🎭. I also enjoy some of the music. It is so wonderful to see the lovely church es and museums also. Art adds such beauty to our lives 😍.
