Wow. Great work. I’ve always loved his paintings but these charcoal works are even better. Wish I was back in London to see it right now. Oh well. Good video.
That means a huge amount as I know you have links to the artist. Hugely powerful works. Is it going too far to call them the greatest works of the 'London School'?
Thank you for watching and I am so glad you enjoyed it. The word master is definitely true here. I deliberately didn't over play it in the vlog but you can't help but wonder how much Auerbach's own life up until that point, and also the situation London was in at the end of the war affected the mood of these works.
Absolutely - sorry for the delay in replying but I agree. I think the depth in the portraits of Boehm surpass even the others. I'm already planning the next visit!
These works are amazing, honestly. Look at his very late works I vlogged too. I loved those. The word genius is used a lot about a lot of contemporary artists, often undeservedly. I certainly feel Auerbach has touched close to that at certain points in his career but obviously, many disagree!
It seems he did a lot of 'thinking/work' on improving what he had 'drawn/painted'. Meaning, although, it looks spontaneous...; in reality, it's not...far from, actually. LOL ;-)
Definitely not spontaneous in the sense that he was very reluctant to let works go and worked and worked on them right up until they left the studio. Thank you for watching.
I hate hate these museum tours which is nearly all these close ups that may or not reveal an actual picture. What is wrong with people? Do you go into a museum, close your eyes, go up as close as they let you & exam every detail with no concern about the work of the artist? CRINGE

Thank you very much for watching and I hope this gives you at least a sense of the exhibition.
Friday--new G. Richter. Sat--F. Auerbach portraits. Keep up the good work and thank you.
Thank you for watching - two great exhibitions.
Amazing! Man that first self portrait is STUNNING
Thank you for watching. These works were great. I will try to show more of the whole picture though!
I agree with you that these drawings are Auerbach's strongest works. Good review.

@artvlog4778: israeldiegoriveragenius2th164 is a complete and utter nutcase.
thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
I'll be seeing this at the weekend - the charcoals look incredible.
Matt - you are in for a treat. I know it's a cliche but you have to see them with your own eyes. Thank you, as always, for watching.
Looks like a great show by the master and I enjoyed the review vlog very much. thank you and liked all the detail included.

Head of Gerda Boehm (1961) at 8:05. Such a stunning masterpiece.
