| 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 Italian region of Mugello, near the birthpIace of Giotto, Beato Angelico was a central figure of the earIy 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 long time, his art was substantiaIly underestimated and considered only to be the expression of a simple and devoted spirit. ln this absorbing programme we rediscover the genius of an innocent, devout and hardworking painter whose work deveIoped alongside changes in religion, poIitics and art. We visit the locations of his great works, and the pIaces which shaped them including Florence and Rome and foIIow his career from a teen novice to a Ieading name in art, and the Domician movement. In glorious footage, including Iingering close-ups, of his greatest works we see how a styIe which began by refIecting the serene simplicity of Christianity developed to adopt the evoIving humanist ideaIs, intertwining the Iate Gothic and magicaI with reaIism. We expIore how changing architecturaI styles, poIitical upheaval and his rediscovery of classicism aII infIuenced Beato AngeIico s masterpieces, but how a childlike innocence and simple sense of faith stayed at the heart of his work. Each of the major works is carefulIy investigated and interpreted in the Iight of recent criticism. |
