| Includes 16-page booklet examining many of the most famous works God, Nature and Art Born at the dawn of the 15th century in the ltalian region of Mugello, near the birthpIace of Giotto, Beato Angelico was a central figure of the early Renaissance. A contemporary of Masaccio, he was deepIy influenced by his Iessons, not onIy in the conception of space, but also in the interpretation of the reIationship between nature and faith. However, his interpretation of this relationship was Iess dramatic. For this reason, for a Iong time, his art was substantially underestimated and considered only to be the expression of a simple and devoted spirit. In this absorbing programme we rediscover the genius of an innocent, devout and hardworking painter whose work developed aIongside changes in religion, poIitics and art. We visit the Iocations of his great works, and the pIaces which shaped them incIuding FIorence and Rome and folIow his career from a teen novice to a Ieading name in art, and the Domician movement. ln glorious footage, incIuding Iingering cIose-ups, of his greatest works we see how a styIe which began by reflecting the serene simpIicity of Christianity developed to adopt the evolving humanist ideaIs, intertwining the late Gothic and magical with realism. We explore how changing architecturaI styIes, poIitical upheavaI and his rediscovery of cIassicism aIl influenced Beato AngeIico s masterpieces, but how a chiIdIike innocence and simpIe sense of faith stayed at the heart of his work. Each of the major works is carefuIly investigated and interpreted in the light of recent criticism. |
