Famous quotes by Vincent van Gogh:

"The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore"

"I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day."

"The way to know life is to love many things."

"I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people"

"I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process."

"What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?"

"Love is something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the essence"

"I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God's help I shall succeed."

"For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream."

"But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things."

"The best way to know God is to love many things."

"I can very well do without God both in my life and in my painting, but I cannot, suffering as I am, do without something which is greater than I am, which is my life, the power to create."

"One must work and dare if one really wants to live."

"An artist needn't be a clergyman or a churchwarden, but he certainly must have a warm heart for his fellow men."

"Love always brings difficulties, that is true, but the good side of it is that it gives energy."

"I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream."

"Those Dutchmen had hardly any imagination or fantasy, but their good taste and their scientific knowledge of composition were enormous."

"Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well."

Van Gogh - Private life of a Masterpiece BBC (Documentary)

Duration: 47:53
Updated: 30 Jan 2014

Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 -- 29 July 1890) was a post-Impressionist painter of Dutch origin whose work, notable for its rough beauty, emotional honesty and bold color, had a far-reaching influence on 20th-century art. After years of painful anxiety and frequent bouts of mental illness, he died aged 37 from a gunshot wound, generally accepted to be self-inflicted (although no gun was ever found).His work was then known to only a handful of people and appreciated by fewer still. Van Gogh began to draw as a child, and he continued to draw throughout the years that led up to his decision to become an artist. He did not begin painting until his late twenties, completing many of his best-known works during the last two years of his life. In just over a decade, he produced more than 2,100 artworks, consisting of 860 oil paintings and more than 1,300 watercolors, drawings, sketches and prints. His work included self portraits, landscapes, still lifes, portraits and paintings of cypresses, wheat fields and sunflowers. Van Gogh spent his early adulthood working for a firm of art dealers, traveling between The Hague, London and Paris, after which he taught for a time in England at Isleworth and Ramsgate. One of his early aspirations was to become a pastor and from 1879 he worked as a missionary in a mining region in Belgium where he began to sketch people from the local community. In 1885, he painted his first major work The Potato Eaters. His palette at the time consisted mainly of somber earth tones and showed no sign of the vivid coloration that distinguished his later work. In March 1886, he moved to Paris and discovered the French Impressionists. Later, he moved to the south of France and was influenced by the strong sunlight he found there. His work grew brighter in color, and he developed the unique and highly recognizable style that became fully realized during his stay in Arles in 1888. The extent to which his mental health affected his painting has been a subject of speculation since his death. Despite a widespread tendency to romanticize his ill health, modern critics see an artist deeply frustrated by the inactivity and incoherence brought about by his bouts of illness. According to art critic Robert Hughes, Van Gogh's late works show an artist at the height of his ability, completely in control and "longing for concision and grace."

VINCENT VAN GOGH - EL PODER DEL ARTE - SIMON SCHAMA

Duration: 59:40
Updated: 18 Nov 2013

VINCENT VAN GOGH - EL PODER DEL ARTE - SIMON SCHAMA DOCUMENTAL DE LA BBC "El gran arte tiene unas maneras espantosas..." observa Simon Schama al comienzo de su magistral exploración sobre los momentos clave de la historia del arte. Un respetuoso paseo por un museo puede llevarnos a creer erróneamente que las obras maestras son piezas amables, objetos que nos sosiegan y seducen. Pero en realidad son otra cosa: las más grandes pinturas nos aprisionan, desmontan nuestros esquemas y luego reorganizan nuestro sentido de la realidad. Con esa misma fuerza, EL PODER DEL ARTE nos aleja de la comodidad del museo para ver esas obras bajo una nueva luz: Schama aborda los puntos de inflexiónn en las vidas de ocho artistas que, en situaciones extremas, crearon obras sin precedentes, alterando para siempre el curso de la historia del arte. Cada uno de estos héroes --Caravaggio, Bernini, Rembrandt, David, Turner, Van Gogh, Picasso y Rothko- afrontó a la crisis de diferente manera, pero siempre con el pulso firme. Las obras maestras que crearon desafiaron las convenciones, destrozaron la autocomplacencia, invirtieron las conciencias y cambiaron nuestro modo de ver el mundo. Con un estilo narrativo poderosamente vivo, Schama explora las personalidades de los artistas y el espíritu de los tiempos en los que vivieron, capturando el extravagante teatro de la vida burguesa en Amsterdam, la pasión y la paranoia del París revolucionario o la carnicería y el patetismo en la España de la guerra civil. Ocho artistas Ocho historias clave en la historia del arte. HOY PRESENTAMOS LA VIDA Y OBRA DE VINCENT VAN GOGH: "LA PLASMACIÓN DESDE EL INTERIOR DE LA MENTE" EL AUTOR Simon Michael Schama (13 de febrero de 1945) Historiador británico. Profesor de historia e historia del arte en la Universidad de Columbia. Entre sus obras se incluyen Landscape and Memory, Dead Certainties, Rembrandt's Eyes, y su historia de la Revolución francesa Citizens. Es el responsable de la serie documental de la BBC A History of Britain (en 15 episodios). Power of Art BBC - Documental (en 8 capítulos) Realiza crítica de arte y cultura en The New Yorker.

Why did Vincent van Gogh cut off his ear?

Duration: 5:15
Updated: 14 Apr 2014

On December 23rd 1888, Vincent van Gogh cut off his left ear. Did he cut off his entire ear? Or just the lobe? And why? By watching this video you'll learn about the major facts, speculations and research. The lecture goes back to the beginning of 1888, to Arles, France. Van Gogh painted some of his greatest paintings in Arles: Starry Night, The Starry Night over the Rhone, Sunflowers, The Sower, The Night Cafe, The Yellow House, Bedroom in Arles, The Vineyard, At Eternity's Gate, The Brothel. There are different speculative stories about the ear-incident. Though the reoccuring characters are Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. Presumably they had a fight. Van Goghs poor mental health is also a commonly mentioned motive for this act of self-mutilation.

The Sad Life of Vincent Van Gogh

Duration: 3:20
Updated: 05 Oct 2013

To all the people commenting that Vincent Van Gogh was shot by two kids is a proven fact, please don't - because it is only a theory. I understand that you're trying to help, but while I was researching for this video, I looked into it. Naifeh and Smith's theory has been met with a lot of skepticism and may even be a result of conclusion bias. So I decided to go along with the more accepted theory that he shot himself. In reality, no one knows what truly happened all those years ago. All we know is that a great painter was shot in the chest and it caused his death. On another note, I'm wearing a checkered tie and a pony shirt.

Vincent Van Gogh - Jonathan Richman

Top Jonathan Richman, Vincent Van Gogh

Well Have you heard about the painter Vincent Van Gogh
Who loved color and who let it show
and in the museum what have we here?
The most soulful painter since Jon Vermeer
and He loved, he loved life so bad
His paintings had twice the color other paintings had
So bad that the world had to know
he loved color and he let it show
in the Amsterdam museum I was feeling bad
And looking for a way not to be so sad
I felt the feeling from the paintings on the wall
and Vincent Van Gogh was with me in the hall
And he loved, he loved life that way
His paintings said things that paintings seldom say
so bad that the world had to know
He loved color and he let it show
Have you seen those last paintings by Van Gogh?
it's a sorrow show
did it hurt you from the wall?
did it follow you down the hall?
because he loved,
he loved life like that
you look at those last paintings
and you'll get kind of sad
so bad that the world had to know
He loved color and he let it show
Vincent Van Gogh
