Adventurers Of Modern Art

This elaborately produced documentary series made up of six episodes plunges us into Parisian life in the beginning of the twentieth century, a hotbed of artistic creation with the blossoming of Fauvism, Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism. Through illustrations, animation and stunning original archival footage, the films trace the highs and lows, scandals and celebrations, tragedies and the triumphs that shaped the phenomenal period of Modern Art from the basement of the Bateaulavoir in 1900 to the last shudders of World War II. Not only do we follow the early careers of such cultural icons of art such as Picasso, Max Jacob, Stein, Apollinaire, Hemingway, Matisse, and Cocteau, but also the art dealers and the muses who came to France from all over Europe. All of whom left an indelible mark on the 20th century. See how these glorious subversives and adventurers become revered cultural heroes.
