big brushes and messy start ....then small brushes and intricate detail. A tour de force of imagination.....genius of a man and will be remembered for centuries !
I wonder if we'll ever see a complete archive of his works. It seems like he produced a painting a week and there are still paintings I've never seen before and they're not cataloged.
I highly recommend visiting his gallery at Sanok Castle if you're able to, apart from the well known works it also has a lot of the more obscure paintings and sketches.
He used to compare his style to "adjusting focus of a camera". A big colour spot, then adding sharp detail with delicate small brush strokes... Thanks for watching Scarlette. :)
The shots of the two human figures decaying and deteriorating from a supportive erotic embrace to a blurry sickly emaciated mourning is chilling and powerful on an indescribable level
This is what The Joy of Painting would be like, if the camera man was on acid. And realizing that he and Bob were actually living in the intro sequence to Portal 3.
It is very cool to see his approach to painting. Him taking the time between strokes to step back and view his work played a role in the superiority of his paintings. I wish I had the patience and strength to work standing like him.
I believe Beksinski was directly inspired by the great Polish painter Jacek Malczewski 1854-1929 where one can see multi figures blending together moving though a room similar to some of Bek's compositions. As far as artists of equal caliber just look to his contemporaries like H. Giger, Robert Venosa, Ernst Fuchs, De Es Schwertberger and even Dariusz Zawadzki who does Beksinski's style even better than Beksinski!
i understand why you would compare Dariusz Zawadzki to Beksinski, but beside drawing/painting techniques they are a lot different. While Zawadzki portrais more of a fantasy and mechanical world, Beksinski is more subconscious and emotion. Saying that Zawadzki does it better is ignorant.
I was somewhat exaggerating when saying he does it better, merely responding to the notion from the first comment "has anyone come close" but still stand by the fact that Zawadski is technically beyond Beksinski in detail and realism (thus the doing it better statement) which can be used to differentiate between the two.
I was about to write the same comment. Glad others notice that workspace. I want to see a video of him setting things up. That lighting! Watching other videos of him working, he never once stumbles looking for something. He knows exactly which tube to grab among that divided drawer of paints.
@@PaulMcCannWebBuilder It was normal thing to have room organized this way in Poland in the 90s (This was most likely filmed inside his flat apartment not a studio) People were proud of their stereo hi-fi and music collection. Those organized shelves and cabinets behind him is called "meblościanka" which was along with "wersalka" the most common furniture. Generally most of the population was resourceful and well organized.I like the office desk lamps used as lighting around the painting area. Wonder if it helped with paint drying process.
Thanks for posting. I love to see Beksinski paint. I only wish we had more video of him doing so. I am working on several paintings as an homage to him.
I believe that anyone who loves art as much as I do, and has recently become passionate or interested in this painter. This video is an important historical find and very valuable. Amazing to be able to see how Beksinski painted, thinking about all the amazing paintings here.
There are still MANY of his works that have yet to be catalogued online. The piece shown at 3:16: I've never seen that one before -- and I've scoured the internet for as many pictures of his work as possible. Who knows if anyone will establish a thorough documentation of his work that can be seen.
I'm sure there are Polish galleries that have some of his work in-house, but it's still a monumental task to categorize them all and to put them online. Even Dmochowski's gallery is limited in that regard.
I saw this paint just yesterday in Warsaw in a gallery. It's amazing. I think that this masterpiece has no title, like most of his productions. Sorry for my bad English.
There is a video interview on youtube where he talks about how much he enjoys making paintings just for his own pleasure with no desire of showing them to people.
Wuauuuu muchas graxs por subirlo le daria me encanta si hubiera, muchas graxs éste video nos deja ver de que manera pintaba Beksinski ya viendolo asi de cerca se pueden entender mejor sus obras! Saludos desde Acapulco :D
It was extremely functional, which reflects his personality acurately. Also, it was in communist Poland, where buying anything was a challenge (stuff just wasn't in the stores, you had to have connections to get it), so completing such studio was actually a major accomplishment in itself.
i find his work to be quite uplifting actually….not depressing…i see him quite focused at work, far away from depressive state…what i see its a studio with magic…but i do understand your view….
Greetings from Moore, Texas. Please find and show more. His art is so creepy and mysterious you can't stop looking at it trying to make sense of it but the sense is just out of reach. I love it!
wlasnie obejrzalem caly cykl 72 filmow o Zdzichu. Chcialbym podziekowac Panu za udostepnienie tego ciekawego materialu. Chcialbym aby Pan powiedzial co sadzi o niedawnym filmie o rodzinie Beksinskich! pozdr
Przede wszystkim chciałem podziękować za te wszystkie materiały. Oglądam po troszeczku od dłuższego już czasu. Ale przy okazji chciałem też zapytać, czy można gdzieś usłyszeć więcej Twojej muzyki? Szukając w internecie po „Andy Teszner” nic nie znalazłem, poza tym kanałem na Youtubie.
Hello a fellow working artist here, I can only unfortunately answer the first question but most artist tend to document their work progress and sometimes using a camera can help see a slightly different perspective of your work, a camera tends to change the look of pieces and colors. I do it quite often and helps me to refer back to something if needed, and sometimes documentation is required for some art places. Hope this helped :)
I have his wolves painting as a half sleeve on my arm. Was I young and do I regret it? yes. But it is what it is. I think it's a beautiful piece and he will forever be one of my favorite artists.
Sounds like I'm watching the opening sequence to an 80's cop movie.
More like someone opened a polish version of jumanji.
big brushes and messy start ....then small brushes and intricate detail. A tour de force of imagination.....genius of a man and will be remembered for centuries !
'adjusting the focus of a camera'
It would have been the best if there ever existed a beksinski painting timelapse
Bryce Thibodeaux you did the same to Ivan Matveyev, you get what you give out.
Bryce Thibodeaux couldn’t get anymore pretentious huh?
@Bryce Thibodeaux everyone who read your comments thinks you're a loser.
a lot of losers in the comments. Dare I say, dumb fucks.
Ivan Matveyev you know how to deal with stupidity, I commend you
Did this guy have the single most comfy set up or what? that hifi and studio space is incredible.
Yes he had his own studio
yep, in his own flat. Nice isolation from world to paint some horrific visions
Good hi-fi stufa, but the worst positioning ever seen.
That's a living room in a polish apartment . I'm from Poland
@@patriciazataj239 better than my apartment for sure.
The CD he puts on is Carl Nielsen's 4th symphony conducted by Karajan and played by the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
I was wondering that, thanks.
Thank you
Thank you
That's was just wondering!!!
Does anyone recognize the loudspeakers he has chosen?
I like when he scratches his belly.
Why are we here
Bryna L. I like your pfp what is it? (Sorry if that’s actually the dumbest question ever)
I like the moment i read this is the exact moment he scratched his belly in the video.
@@oriondurdaller3349 possibly a Clive Barker painting
Me too! We are all just silly bipedial apes…

@@The_Qube Thanks for the tip--it would be a dream to see more of his paintings and especially in person.
@@The_Qube I may wanna try and visit! Since I live near, in Slovakia....
Hm, in other interview he said that he paint very slowly, so I doubt there was new painting per week.
@@Zavvorov He averaged about 40 paintings per year for decades. Some years more, some less, but about a painting per week is about right.
I would love to look at all the cds he has. Imagine a playlist of songs that Beksinski *actually* painted to 😯
You can see it via the Sanok museum! He listened mostly to opera, rock, and a bit of i’between
The music captures an artist’s hypomanic state perfectly.
What I would give to see in detail how he made his bones
He used to compare his style to "adjusting focus of a camera". A big colour spot, then adding sharp detail with delicate small brush strokes... Thanks for watching Scarlette. :)
I swear when I look at beksinski bone hand/knuckle textures it reminds me a lot of a tarsiers clenched hand.
@@andyteszner wow, perfect analogy
@Chris McRoy lmao. keep it in ur pants bruh
The shots of the two human figures decaying and deteriorating from a supportive erotic embrace to a blurry sickly emaciated mourning is chilling and powerful on an indescribable level
This is what The Joy of Painting would be like, if the camera man was on acid.
And realizing that he and Bob were actually living in the intro sequence to Portal 3.
Portal 3? Can you explain exactly what you mean by that? There are only two portals
looks like a radio station than a painting studio...amazing man with his inner sanctuaries!!
actually, it's his flat
He probably liked to have ambient music on while he painted. This is inside his house he usd this room as his office.
OMG that panasonic s-vhs camcorder, the Karajan cd, the synth music. Those were the 90s my friend
My favorite artist ❤️
It is very cool to see his approach to painting. Him taking the time between strokes to step back and view his work played a role in the superiority of his paintings. I wish I had the patience and strength to work standing like him.
Has anyone in the history of mankind come close to the Beksinsk to this day? I can not believe this video was posted. Beksinsk is a demigod
I believe Beksinski was directly inspired by the great Polish painter Jacek Malczewski 1854-1929 where one can see multi figures blending together moving though a room similar to some of Bek's compositions. As far as artists of equal caliber just look to his contemporaries like H.

I have found two, maybe. They reminded me of Beksinski,
Dariusz Zawadzki (Polish) and Xueguo Yang (Chinese).
Check them out.
Oenomaus i believe he's is inspired by hyeronimus bosch
I was born exactly when he made this video 🙂
Then you have a gift my friend
Amazing, thanks for sharing
amazing music collection and great painter
It's wonderful to see the Master at work!
Look at this man's studio. He's living decades ahead of his time. Intelligence, order and creativity ooze from every item in view.
I was about to write the same comment. Glad others notice that workspace. I want to see a video of him setting things up.

Are his pieces available in local Polish museums/galleries or did he keep them to himself?
I'm sure there are Polish galleries that have some of his work in-house, but it's still a monumental task to categorize them all and to put them online. Even Dmochowski's gallery is limited in that regard.
I saw this paint just yesterday in Warsaw in a gallery. It's amazing. I think that this masterpiece has no title, like most of his productions. Sorry for my bad English.
also he destroyed many works he deemed to personal for anyone else too see
There is a video interview on youtube where he talks about how much he enjoys making paintings just for his own pleasure with no desire of showing them to people.
This guy is phenomenal, he's severely underrated. I wonder what technique which he uses for most of his paintings
His studio looks amazing. art is kinda cool too.
@Andy Teszner . Thank you to bring these videos.
a vast collection of music . interesting work approach and fascinating , wonderful art .
thanks for sharing great material!👍
Very helpful to see the construction of such a great painting. thanks

I guess on the scene of hell

beautiful ....

I wish I had a studio setup like that.
Precioso su dibujo, una inspiración para mi este señor. :,)
Sin dudas

this poor man was murdered :/ that's so sad...
really?
@@saii221 Yes, unfortunately he was stabbed by some young guy who wanted money from him. He was stabbed 17 times.
And while he was still alive his son committed suicide....

I love this
Amazing! He is my new favorite sorry Salvador!
he recreates his visions and getting obsessed with them watching them
Wow, pierwsze nagranie w którym widze jak mistrz naprawde maluje a nie macha tylko pędzlem
I always assumed he worked in oils. This was amazing to watch and I love how he documented the progression of his pieces
His paintings were mainly created using oil paint on hardboard panels that he personally prepared, although he also experimented with acrylic paints
He surely took his time to produce his Work
I like his work space.
Loving the Art Attack music
日本ではカルトな輩が不吉な絵のように言っている人がいますが、非常に荘厳で美しい絵です。
貴重な映像ありがとうございます。
どのようなクラシック音楽を好まれた方なのか興味があります。
Es una experiencia mística ver el pasado de un pinto tan fascinante
Anty Somnio BEKSINSKI, GRAN MAESTRO! el ha sido mi inspiración para encontrar el rumbo en mi estilo al pintar.
Incrível!
Telas incríveis, fiquei sabendo que suas telas serviram de referência pro Mangá do Miura - Berserk.
He unfortunately burned a bunch of his paintings at one point. There’s tons of deep emotional paintings by him the public will never be able to see.

2 questions. Why does he use the camcorder? And what is the significance of the number '2' on many of his paintings?

Muzyka to prawdopodobnie Klaus Schulce lub Tangerine Dream....pasuje idealnie
There is a music credit at the end of this video: "High & Mighty," with Dan Thomson (ex Hawkwind) on drums, and Andy Teszner on keyboards 🔊🎶👍
Oh! Mi Dios
Este vídeo es muy bueno
Does anyone else look at his work and think, "i could never. No matter how bad i want to..."
a professional
this video gives so much information that i can almost smell how his workspace would smell maybe i just have synesthesia
What is this music please, i love it
This dude holds a pen like me! 🖤
What is the music used in this video?
Ah! He’s an admirer of the great Karajan too.
