She supported every Italian artiste during the war, buying food stuffs and materials so they could paint and produce art all through the war. Remarkable
What an extrodinary woman! A visionary and grand patron of the Arts. '31 Women' was profoundly empowering for female artistsThank you so much for this beautifully done doc.
I loved this and subscribed. I was never a modern art fan until I visited Peggy Guggenheim's pallazo in Venice. I went back to it 3 times. It was fun to see her place on your video. The terrazzo flooring, though out her house, to the beautiful back yard, which was the entrance. There is a beautiful gate to this entrance, a piece of art in itself. That sculpture of art facing the canal , the horse and rider had a phallic piece that would be unscrewed when she felt like it. I bought her auto biography and art books at this place. The biography was very honest, and she told things most wouldn't. Most of the men artists who became her lovers used her, I thought, but she was true to herself.
Thank you for bringing up the Marini Horse. He became quite famous for his horse sculptures. Aside from the phallus being removable, Peggy often used to screw it off and take it along to parties in her handbag. And there is another anecdote involving that horse. We've never known whether it was intentional or not that the said sculpture with a naked man, his spread legs and engorged penis was placed on the terrace facing the palazzo of the Archbishop of Venice directly across the canal. Between that and Peggy's fondness for naked sunbathing on the roof that man was getting quite an eyeful!
I too was very inspired by my first visit to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, just before the pandemic descended on that city. Inside her museum was a poster for an exhibition in Frankfurt, scheduled for the following spring, and featuring 30+ surrealist female artists. Because of that poster, I went to that exhibition, and learned a great deal about Surrealism. Peggy was an inspiration, and helped many female artists, as well as the many men she admired. (Some of them did indeed take advantage of her; Max Ernst in particular.)
I have been to her palazzo many times, bought a copy of her sunglasses which I keep in my living room and have been collecting fortuny clothes like the ones she wore. Melody
I visited her home shortly before she died. She did not reveal her identity as I told her that Jackson Pollock was my favorite artist and that I admired the style of having an artist in residence. There were 37 of his paintings. I hope I made her day.
The Peggy Guggenheim museum in Venice is one of the best modern art museums I've ever been to. I saw this one painting, and thought "Who's that? It's great but I've never seen this artist before." I read the caption and it was a friend of Peggy Guggenheim who never made it as a professional artist. I forget the name, but it showed what great taste in art Peggy Guggenheim had.
after a certain point, having famous art is mostly about who you know and how famous you are. The public simply takes it on faith, the recommendations of those supposed experts in the field
Thank you for shining a light on the extraordinary Peggy Guggenheim. I have vivid memories of visiting her eclectic museum in Venice forty years ago. The amazing Guggenheim museum in NYC is a temple to contemporary art and architecture and a destination for any lover of culture.
My world of vicarious living through reading books and watching biography's has hit a gem with this. Your narration, pace, intimate details with corresponding pictures never hit a bump.
Thanks so much. You and I lead similar lives it seems. As when I am not reading I am listening to an audiobook or watching a documentary. This weekend my book is on the fake heiress of the Gilded age.
As a professional artist/illustrator/painter for over 50 years, I've always held a keen interest in her life as well as the lives of famous painters! She was portrayed by actress Amy Madigan in the film about the late American abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock who was played by Amy's real life husband Ed Harris, a great movie! Thanks for sharing her life as an avant-garde and lasting legacy! Sad about her beautiful talented daughter! I've lost a beloved daughter as well, one of three girls! One never gets over that, there is no closure, only sad acceptance til we meet again on the Other side! May they rest in peace~ beautiful place where she's buried! Italy one of the most beautiful countries in the world, where I studied art many moons ago~♥♥
As I immediately subscribed, I’m wondering what took me so long to find this sensational channel! It’s quite interesting as well as informative. Your splendid voice and tone makes for a beautiful video. Thank you very much for this chance to have a peek at the life of one of our most generous patrons, Peggy Guggenheim.
Peggy’s home in Venice is so much more worthy of a visit than the Murano glass factory that nearly all tourists go to. (Including me.) Her home is beautiful, calming yet exciting, and is full of incredible modern art. If you go to Venice, and you love modern art, go to Peggy Guggenheim’s home.
I agree, I also highly recommend the book. 'The Unfinished Palazzo' as it tells the story of her home, and two of the other influential people that lived there. Luisa Casati, Doris Castlerosse; great book on the three ladies and the home.
What an interesting life and unfortunately sad as well. I would have liked to have known her. I'm glad she found happiness.and I love that she loved her dogs so much.
it shows that money does not make one happy but it does help one to have other options and the ability to do good in the world. thanks for this one a very good video.
I will add it to the list and look into it. I write scripts usually months ahead of time, some I never do videos for, as I feel the story doesn't warrant it or I feel I will save it for another time. However she is interesting as is her art, I will research her and maybe will create one in late Autumn.
She was known as "avant garde"! "the term means any artist, movement, or artwork that breaks with precedent and is regarded as innovative and boundaries-pushing"
OMG what an incredible, inspirational, artistic, insatiable and way ahead of her time lady I’d never heard of her but I’m going to start reading about her 🙏👍🏻
Countless people have damagng childhoods and disappointing relationships. Most do not have immense wealth to provide them other avenues of fulfillment.
WTF does that mean? You sound rather bitter darling. I have been both wealthy and poor, wealthy and poor again, and yet...I always find ways, without finances to seek fulfillment. Books, art, nature, volunteering are just some of the numerous ways to fulfillment. I wish you abundence and fulfillment.
Yep. My bad childhood is directly correlated to my hundreds of of sexual relationships and many failed relationships..and I'm a struggling artist. Peggy and I would have hit it off!
@@mariawilson2595 Yes. I am halfway through her script but I paused it to do a few others first. But she absolutely will be in the next couple of months. Such an amazing life story and talented artist. Thank you
@@MythicMindScape21 and a very pleasant voice, tone to listen too. A unique combination. Keep making and sharing these educational and informative videos.
@@MythicMindScape21 Melody is so right, that lady is so far ahead of her time regardless of her gender. Although if she were a man history would portray him in a much more positive light with countless books and movies made celebrating his exploits and conquest. Cheers to the Bohemian queen who lived her life to the fullest and may her legacy inspire us all. Thank you so much for this video it has made my day a beautiful one. You should try to get this made into a movie or a documentary because I have a feeling you have so much more to share with us.
@@arun2995 Thank you for such kind words. I would love to tell a longer story about her; as 15-20 minutes doesn't do her justice. Hopefully one day someone will tell her story; and if my channel becomes successful maybe I will be able to do it. But regardless I hope it is told by someone.
@@sandraleigh4023 She ultimately succeeded in getting her collection out of France with great difficulty. Guggenheim arranged to have her collection crated and shipped to the United States. This was a perilous endeavor, given the ongoing war and the risks of transporting valuable art across the Atlantic. Despite the dangers, she managed to get her collection safely to New York. Once her collection arrived in New York, Guggenheim stored and displayed many of the pieces at her gallery, Art of This Century, which she opened in 1942. This gallery became a hub for modern art and helped establish many now-famous artists. After the war, Guggenheim decided to move back to Europe, settling in Venice in 1947. She then brought her collection with her to Italy and eventually housed it in the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, where it became the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.
Peggy's vast collection of art works were her savior in a time that she and other European Jews needed refuge from the war (around 1943 give or take a few years), good thinking on her behalf to leave Europe at that time! Peggy was one of kind and most certainly a cosmopolitan woman who had style and sophistication that many women can only dream of! Excellent story of her life. Thank you, I totally enjoyed this video.
She sounds fabulous to me, a survivor and very brave. Perhaps she was an empath, a sure magnet for narcissists who then in turn abused her, well that is just my impression of her. It is a fact that dogs are loyal, they don't betray and hurt people so I quite understand her and her choice to live alone with her animals. My opinion only.
This is a wonderful story,about a fascinating woman,and I rather admire her very much and her small dogs at least gave unconditional love so I understand very well ,and the lady left her legacy to inspire other women thankyou so much for this work which was well put together
I cannot express in words how much I love your work. Your narration & knowledge of the subjects you cover is splendid ! Keep up the great work. Warmest regards Marc
Thanks for this video on Peggy Guggenheim's fascinating life, it added so much information on her that I hadn't previously known. I had always thought she might have been associated with the NY Guggenheim museum, but I didn't know about her art galleries in Europe. Interesting also how women are frequently closely associated with modern art movements. If you'd like a suggestion for a future video, I'd recommend one on one of the significant modern dance pioneers, such as Martha Graham, Ruth St. Denis, or Isadora Duncan, who led amazing lives creating groundbreaking choreographic art.
I first came across Peggy in the library. Her autobiography, Confessions of a Art Addict. Then I didn't understand Surrealist and Cubist Art. I thought very outlandish. I was only 18 or 19 then.

I recently visited the Guggenheim palazzo in Venice and it was extraordinary. The most fabulous collection in one splendid place. What a wonderful afternoon.
I read her biography... so sad that with that wealth, she had such a miserable childhood. She wasn't a particular nice person. Her husbands were like her parents, immensely abusive.
Thank you for this video. I enjoyed and learned from it. A few people came to mind while watching this: Isabella Gardner, Helen Clay Frick, Gertrude Vanderbilt and Mary Griggs Burke.... just to name a few. I guess cause they, too, were female art collectors.
Thank you. I have scripts written for the next two months; but these messages are so important so I can understand who people would like to see. So I can look into doing them in the Autumn.
In that moment she was fleeing the Nazi's so she had to choose carefully, quickly, some countries were automatically ruled out because of war, so London it was....
Love Peggy’s home and art collection and sunglasses! Wish you could have talked about those wild glasses. This was a great intro, when will you do the three hour doc? Thanks!
I'd love too, but this is just a hobby. One day when I have enough subscribers that are interested in these topics I will do more extensive biographies.
I’m sure the body count is grossly exaggerated. There aren’t that many nights and time for such things. It sounds like exaggeration, e.g. slander, because she was sexually very open.
Frankly, I admire her wisdom to follow her gut hunches and be bold enough to be herself. Judge not lest we be judged. At 80 I have followed many of my dreams and done things which at their time seemed like disasters but which ended up teaching me a way to live that didn't have the demands of profit, the right snob house and car and clothes and snob title, but to try to live doing what I like to do. My mother gave me good advice one day, when I whined about not being quite like another boy and wishing for a new role when she said. Why do you want to be someone else, they're already taken.?
Thank you . I will consider it. I research topics months ahead. So summer videos are mostly planned. But I will look into her maybe for Autumn. Thanks for the suggestion.
It's very sad she was not loved by her own Mother and the loss of her Father, her love life could have taken a completely different turn" however her unwavering spirit to her artistic life and talents, is completely commendable and the love of her animals probably kept her emotionally grounded! and sane!
Hope you enjoy the video. Please let me know who else you would like to see us cover.
I did, I have never heard of her until this evening. very interesting person she was.
I have visited her palazzo in Venice - what a gift to all of us - an amazing collections of art.
There an excellent book on her place in Venice called 'The Unfinished Palazzo'. It is about the amazing women, including Peggy, who lived there.
She supported every Italian artiste during the war, buying food stuffs and materials so they could paint and produce art all through the war. Remarkable

Great suggestion!
Thank you for one of best profiles on this extraordinary visionary.
Been to her palazzo. It was dreamy. Just wish I’d known more about her then. Wonderful dame!!!
I would call her an eccentric. I’m sure she was responsible for helping more than a few artists achieving fame & padding their pockets.
She was known as "avant garde"! "the term means any artist, movement, or artwork that breaks with precedent and is regarded as innovative and boundaries-pushing"

I read her biography... so sad that with that wealth, she had such a miserable childhood. She wasn't a particular nice person. Her husbands were like her parents, immensely abusive.
She had raw bad luck with mwn, good grief! Her mom was cruel to blame her for her dad's death on the Titantic. 14 dogs! That is one animal lover!
