How grateful I am to this Museum! Brought first on a class trip at 9 1/2. At 10, walked 1.2 mile to a bus to Ashmont station to a train to Park Street Station Boston to a trolley to the Museum. 2 1/2 hours back and forth. Did this at least five times til 15. First A in high school a paper on Van Gogh. Later in LA Van Gogh exhibition -paintings from Amsterdam I went three times. He continues to inspire. Thank you.
I've enjoyed this excellent lecture very much and learned many new things. I am grateful to be able to have access to this kind of information thanks to technology and TH-cam!
I am working in the Van Gogh Museum as a guide for many years. This lecture was filled with inaccuracies. It’s entertaining, but there are an inexcusable amount of mistakes.
One of the best lectures on Van Gogh I've ever listened to. Dr Claude Cernuschi undoubtedly deserved the highly enthusiastic round of applause from the audience. Bravo and thank you so very much !!!
1. I wish I could be as articulate as the speaker. He did a great job in his fluidity, narration, and conveyance of ideas. 2. I identify with Van Gogh's sensitivity, passion, and tunnel vision/hard work. His ingenuity inevitably gives way to his social awkwardness. In a way, he was cursed with it. But his life sacrifice was for our good; we reap the benefit of the boundaries that he explored and pushed. I am reminded of the story of the Iliad. Achilles was confronted with the choice to live a long but a boring life or a short but a famous one.
He was awkward and gruff and these qualities were reflected in his paintings. He came to accept these shortcomings and did not let them get in his way, lucky for us.
And yet this charming fellow still says ‘Van Go’ even with an explanation from him at the start of his presentation, it is an insult to Vincent. ‘Van Go’ is not enough.
@Gary Allen Thank you for your comment. With respect I believe you are using phoneme in the wrong context here. Phoneme is the very reason why ‘Van Gogh’ should be pronounced as ‘Van Gogh’ and not ‘Van Go’. Phoneme in linguistics puts an influence on the smallest unit of speech which distinguishes one word from another, which functions as a single accurate sound in pronunciation, especially when it comes to identity, and the effort linked to the communication and pronunciation of a name. It seems in American linguistics, the phoneme often has a less central place in phonological theory than it used to have. As a form of relational identification, I am sure Vincent would at least appreciate the most empathetic attempt in the pronunciation of his name.
It always strikes me as such a supreme irony that during his life, Van Gogh struggled so much and only sold one painting, and yet in recent decades, has become so well-known, and popular with the masses (and marketed like crazy with all kinds of merch: coffee mugs, umbrellas, etc.). My mother loved his art and admired his personal story, esp. his relationship with his brother Theo, and my appreciation of his phenomenal talent has grown over the years.
Wheatfield with Crows is not Vincent's final painting. It was painted a month before his death. His final painting is Tree Roots. Both paintings are at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. I work there. Also, he was shot by Rene Secretan. He did not commit suicide.
Thank you. Always have thought his last days were misleading. It's easy to understand why people during that period misunderstood him. Though artist knew better.
I love Van Gogh . I have been to Van Gogh Museum and read books Van Gogh a lot! I love this video and this is the reason I spent most ofmy time on TH-cam :this kind of valuable videos to be lecturered . Today is a raining day and my dog is waiting to be walked . But I want to watch this remarkable teaching. Thank you Van Gogh! Thank you TH-cam ! Thank you professor!
When I was 12 years old, and then again at 16 years old, I studied Van Gogh. I learned a great deal about him thru he and his brother's letters back and forth. Combining the writings with actually seeing the paintings live one can really understand how Van Gogh felt about the world around him. Years later I saw his painting "Iris" and was further memorized by the power of Van Gogh. It is important to note that he made his own colors, and bright as they were, this was not a simple process, the colors he formulated intensify the level of Van Gogh's relationship to his environment. He was an emotional genius who was in touch with his environment so much more than most people.
I am totally obsessed with Van Gogh. I enjoyed your lecture and loved seeing all of the paintings done by Van Gogh as well as by other artists that were influenced by his style. Thank you!
When Vincent was asked why he only used his first name or no name to sign his paintings, he remarked that he disliked it when people mispronounced his last name.
‘Van Go’ is the worst pronunciation, it’s a verbal insult to his name, and why Americans seem to think this is ok, is beyond any logic. It’s the worst alternative, an deep insult to his Dutch family lineage. ‘Van Go’ is not enough. Shame on you all.
One of the very few well-done presentations, keeps you captured and absorbs totally your attention. Congratulations for your expertise and excellent presentation. Regards.
I am only half way through watching this & I’ e studied Art to postgraduate level & I can say that this is one of the best Art History lectures that I have ever seen ! Great stuff , very interesting & insightful . Thank you, Sir .
This was an amazing insight into the life and work of Vincent Van Gogh. Astonishing research and focus helps to bring out deeper layers of his character and inner and outer spiritual pilgrimage. Thank you Claude for this brilliant lecture.
Recently I was in New York and happened to see Van Gogh's Starry Night painting displayed at the Museum of Modern Art. What a surprise to see an iconic painting among many other modern art pieces which didn't impress me at all. I' dont know much about art but this brilliant lecture has really enlightened me about the wonders of art and the great legacy of Vincent Van Gogh's pantings. Thank you very very much.
Excellent lecture ! The world today needs to come back to meaningful art, ie. symbolism / iconography, .A painting commissioned to match one’s living room decor is not art. This lecture brings home this point by makes it very clear why VanGogh is one of the most important & loved artists of all times. Every one of his paintings had a message for the viewer. Thank you, I subscribed!
This man's command of the English language is very good indeed. I imagine it is not his native language, he sounds French or maybe Swiss, I don't know. A rapid - fire lecture of what, I don't know either, but immensely enjoyable nonetheless.
It was Van Gogh's discovery of Japanese wood cuts and prints that influenced him to change the way he painted, which included the use of color. He even made copies of ukiyo-e prints. Van Gogh and his brother Theo had a collection of Japanese prints that they exhibited in Paris in 1887. They are now housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.
Excellent presentation, remark made from a French artist well educated in the art world. Well explained and accurate enough in the perception of how the creative mind of an artist can work. As for Van Gogh, it is correct to see in his work a revolution in the way to use colours and its application on a canvas. There was time before Van Gogh and after Van Gogh just as much there was before Paganini and after Paganini in music. Good contribution indeed. Thanks for the effort.
Kijk en dat is wat mij stoort ,kortom men ligt op een onderzoek tafel , zonder dat ik mij heb aangemeld men wil weten hoe men zonder een gedegen opleiding kijken en vergelijken hoe ik denk, voel, of mijn emoties en verstand nog wel op plek zit ,ben mij zeer wel van bewust dat het zo zit en ik dacht dat er nog iets anders meespeelde en dat is het heikele punt ,Liefde en nee ik snij mij geen oor af zoals Vincent het deed om aandacht te krijgen waar hij verliefd op was, dat deed hij nadat Vincent zag dat een matador een oor afsneed en gaf die vrouw het oor waarmee zij in haar nopjes was ,daarmee Vincent op idee bracht als ik een oor afsnijd dan krijg ik haar aandacht maar het pakte anders uit , dus wat blijft mij dan te doen? Want ik ben geen Vincent ,als eerste mijzelf voorhouden dat ik een onderzoek object ben , daar ben ik echt geschokt over geweest en nog want ben echt op deze persoon gericht 🥰 maar hij is al gebonden daarbij is de taal ook een struikelblok, ja er zijn veel verschillen niet alleen opleiding alsook zijn financiële kant, ja dan zal men realistisch moeten zijn,ondanks de gedachte liefde overwint veel, ben je dan gelijkwaardig? Zal zoiets op den duur nog zo zijn, maar goed ik hoef het mij niet meer af te vragen ,want hij heeft al een vrouw een echte bofkont in deze , en ik gun het hem om gelukkig te zijn ,alleen voor mij is vaak een dicht geknepen keel vol van emoties,zag het vaak voor mij samen wandelen ergens in natuur soms in stilte soms honderduit kwebbelen ach wat een luxe gedachtengang maar Oh zo krom hoe kom ik hiervan weerom ,al vaak gedacht weg met die IPad en wat doe ik ,ik koop nog een Ipad erbij ,misschien een ander account andere naam en niet meer reageren misschien dat het dan slijt door de tijd 🤔
What a wonderful lecture. As a lifetime fan of Van Gogh, I thoroughly enjoyed this, especially pieces created by other artists. It's interesting to see how Van Gogh's work was realized and represented in the current time of each of the different artists.
The intertwining, the entanglement of Nature and Human action is also reflected deeply in the writings of the French philosopher Maurice Merleau Ponty and I have read seveveral times his very beautifull book “ Le Visible et L’invisible” - and Now this entanglement is expressed through climate changes. Se are not separate - se are deeply connected with all dimensions of Life 🍀💚🐸
A very enjoyable lecture with visuals postulating influences with Van Gogh and also being influenced by him, in life and in paintings. The speaker’s voice seemed unusual and that also held my attention. Sometimes a painting movement can influence the artist in the opposite way or against the movement. Impressionism had little detail and then came a painting movement with detailed realism. The theory of suicide has to remain so until more evidence hast been sorted out and made public.
Very good lecture. Some of these paintings I had never seen before. I like the speakers sense of humor and his obvious interest in Van Gogh. Id be happy to see more lectures given by him.
This is a very interesting lecture - and very well done. And a wonderfull question of van Gogh influencing other artists from a lady at the very end wondering why most of the examples of other artists were German or from Northern countries opening a discussion about different attitudes and temperaments - (I only have one little thing that would have been nice, that each time a painting is shown I would prefer to only look at the painting and not the small image of the speaker in the lower right corner )
A thoroughly engaging lecture beautifully presented, no 'ums' no 'errs', just a fluid presentation by a professional. How refreshing! And extremely interesting.
Thank you for a wonderful presentation. I could listen to you forever. I am familiar with the topic but the way you present it is very engaging and captivating\ Do you speak about other famous artists as well? How can I find you?
A few points: 1. Some observers, historians, etc. believe Vincent did not cut off his ear. The scribbled pencil sketch recorded by a doctor Felix Rey shows a a slice mark across the part of the ear Vincent severed. It isn't so important: he mutilated himself. 2. Vincent obviously suffered serious emotional distress and suffering--read his letters-- but not necessarily acute psychosis. But, yes, he did end up in an asylum under the care of his friend and admirer, Dr. Gachet. 3. everyone seems to agree that Vincent suffered from his genius and mania [he might have been bipolar], both if which, together or independently, can take over control of a person's behaviour and cause dangerous impulses. But his mania also energized Vincent the artist to produce so many incredible works so quickly. At the end of his working life the brush strokes, dabs, etc., were very thick and clearly frenetic. His torment and passion were pouring out through his brush onto the canvas. Vincent also went to extremes with the poor Belgian miners and families, so much so that the church leaders more or less banned him from continuing his mission work. Vincent's humanity and love for all people upset him to the point where he gave away his clothing and other belongings. I have not seen even one film that correctly, honestly portrayed this great artist from the inside out: Vincent had a big heart, big soul and big mind/vision. God bless Vincent! May he rest in peace.
Bravo, great lecture! I did not know that Van Gogh influenced so much on Schiele's work, who's work I like as much as Gogh's. By the way, 2 chairs that appeared towards the end of the lecture, are regarded as a self-portrait of Gauguin and Van Gogh himself, which I find very fascinating. Gogh's chair is very simple and rough, the way how he probably saw and perceived himself, whereas Gaugin's chair has books and a lightened candle, which I see as a Gogh's hope that his friend will come back.
Zelf denk ik het niet daar hebben wij teveel strubbelingen of verplichtingen is te begrijpen ieder van ons heeft een bepaalde leeftijd dat vlak je niet zomaar uit moet je anderen mee kwetsen ook al is het tenminste bij mij zo een leefsfeer van broer en zus, hoe het bij hem is weet ik niet ik weet zelfs niet zijn echte naam, hij blijft daarover onduidelijk daarmee geeft hij het al aan ,Ik blijf op afstand ,zijn goed recht misschien dat hij zich vereerd voelt wie zal het zeggen ,misschien ben ik gewoon een soort van studie object niets meer niets minder een soort van Art een Art die even in een collectie past en dan trekt de caravan verder ,voor mij ligt het zwaartepunt op een vlak waar je nog vele malen van wakker ligt liefde een ondergeschoven kindje die bij velen doet brullen van het lachen want hoe naïef kan men zijn ,in die trant denk ik zo 😥
My dearest and closest friend was one of the Artists selected from USA to paint on the Award winning "Loving Vincent" a highly unique film titled "Loving Vincent" which won top animated film in Italy, the equivalent of American Academy Awards. In the U.S. the film was a contender for an Oscar award just behind Pixars "Coco". Imagine how proud I was to watch my Sister live at the Academy Awards. The film is a compilation of hundreds and hundreds of tiles hand painted in oils. Each tiny movement being a hand painted tile with oils. Absolutely unique and awesome movie. Imagine the long hard hours the group of artists focused on it. Theres a documentary covering the dream, the reality and the tedious work involved. The film was produced by Good Deeds Entertainment. If you have not seen this Masterpiece film, I urge you to search to see if it is still available on DVD.
they keep saying that he was insane, i think he was schizophrenic which is way different to me, as my brother is, and both were very excellent at expressing themselves clearly, just my opinion, though.
I think you should qualify the kind of ways in which the myth is trying to be revised. The van Gogh myth started in the 1920s and boomed in the 1950s. But that was the art dealing process. Later, the pop myth was built on the former one. Once the business of the Van Gogh´s pictures was a cashcow they decided to start the pop iconography. For that the serious research and new findings had to be stopped, so the script wouldn´t be changed: there are two mysteries: the ear and the suicide. Vincent confirmed the agreed versions. Other researchers gathered further evidence. The recent "Pact of silence" and the theory of an accidental shot that Vincent in a very noble way turned into a suicide...Both are rejected or put on a shelf, mainly by the Van Gogh Rijkstmuseum. A new script could somehow affect the huge investments and the profits of an official biography would have to be changed. Hollywood movies, especially Kirk Douglas acting as Vincent, have been trash for the public. The pop Van Gogh iconography ignores all the Letters and the interpretation of the vivid images, as optimistic and lively, instead as cry of anguish. Misinformation sells, they took sensational images and sold it unexplained. Few people will ever buy more than a short biography or read the Letters to Theo. And yet, tose letters were the first strategy Johanna Van Gogh used to bring his inheritance back to life...in 25 years Van Gogh became famous, and in less than a century after his death, the myth became immortal...But also unchangeable.
Very interesting period of painting. I am deeply moved by many of the paintings and drawings and the intense quality of #aliveness …. Its like an expression of the experience of aliveness as something that interweaves the Human BodyHeartMind and the Universe and all its phenomena and its vastness. wonder and mystery 🎵💜🎶
I´m Dutch and here´s a tip. If you´re an English speaker you should always pronounce the name as Van Go (or Goff if you want). That IS the correct pronunciation, especially considering the hard ´G´ doesn´t even exist in English. If a dummy tells you it´s wrong, ask them how they pronounce the names Xi Jinping (Chinese name) and Tenochtitlan (Aztec name), and when they say they can´t or that they shouldn´t be bothered because we´re not conversing in Chinese or Aztec, tell them to go cry in their baby crib.

He was awkward and gruff and these qualities were reflected in his paintings. He came to accept these shortcomings and did not let them get in his way, lucky for us.

@Gary Allen Thank you for your comment. With respect I believe you are using phoneme in the wrong context here.
Phoneme is the very reason why ‘Van Gogh’ should be pronounced as ‘Van Gogh’ and not ‘Van Go’.
Phoneme in linguistics puts an influence on the smallest unit of speech which distinguishes one word from another, which functions as a single accurate sound in pronunciation, especially when it comes to identity, and the effort linked to the communication and pronunciation of a name.
It seems in American linguistics, the phoneme often has a less central place in phonological theory than it used to have.
As a form of relational identification, I am sure Vincent would at least appreciate the most empathetic attempt in the pronunciation of his name.

My mother loved his art and admired his personal story, esp. his relationship with his brother Theo, and my appreciation of his phenomenal talent has grown over the years.
Wheatfield with Crows is not Vincent's final painting. It was painted a month before his death. His final painting is Tree Roots. Both paintings are at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. I work there. Also, he was shot by Rene Secretan. He did not commit suicide.

I don’t know how this video was recommended to me, but I am glad TH-cam did! This shows I do have great taste! 😝What a great lecture!
Bravo, great lecture! I did not know that Van Gogh influenced so much on Schiele's work, who's work I like as much as Gogh's. By the way, 2 chairs that appeared towards the end of the lecture, are regarded as a self-portrait of Gauguin and Van Gogh himself, which I find very fascinating. Gogh's chair is very simple and rough, the way how he probably saw and perceived himself, whereas Gaugin's chair has books and a lightened candle, which I see as a Gogh's hope that his friend will come back.
Zelf denk ik het niet daar hebben wij teveel strubbelingen of verplichtingen is te begrijpen ieder van ons heeft een bepaalde leeftijd dat vlak je niet zomaar uit moet je anderen mee kwetsen ook al is het tenminste bij mij zo een leefsfeer van broer en zus, hoe het bij hem is weet ik niet ik weet zelfs niet zijn echte naam, hij blijft daarover onduidelijk daarmee geeft hij het al aan ,Ik blijf op afstand ,zijn goed recht misschien dat hij zich vereerd voelt wie zal het zeggen ,misschien ben ik gewoon een soort van studie object niets meer niets minder een soort van Art een Art die even in een collectie past en dan trekt de caravan verder ,voor mij ligt het zwaartepunt op een vlak waar je nog vele malen van wakker ligt liefde een ondergeschoven kindje die bij velen doet brullen van het lachen want hoe naïef kan men zijn ,in die trant denk ik zo 😥
I've seen this 3 times.
Can't get enough of it.
Love your energy.
Congratulations.

Amazing work !! Pls continue to share knowledge with the world
truly wonderful..so rich..I had to listen to it again..
I feel so motivated and even got inspired to write a song about his painting in my language. I have finished the 1st verse, I like it a lot.
My dearest and closest friend was one of the Artists selected from USA to paint on the Award winning "Loving Vincent"
a highly unique film titled "Loving Vincent" which won top animated film in Italy, the equivalent of American Academy Awards.
In the U.S. the film was a contender for an Oscar award just behind Pixars "Coco".
Imagine how proud I was to watch my Sister live at the Academy Awards.
The film is a compilation of hundreds and hundreds of tiles hand painted in oils. Each tiny movement being a hand painted tile with oils. Absolutely unique and awesome movie. Imagine the long hard hours the group of artists focused on it.
Theres a documentary covering the dream, the reality and the tedious work involved. The film was produced by Good Deeds Entertainment.
If you have not seen this Masterpiece film, I urge you to search to see if it is still available on DVD.
they keep saying that he was insane, i think he was schizophrenic which is way different to me, as my brother is, and both were very excellent at expressing themselves clearly, just my opinion, though.
I think you should qualify the kind of ways in which the myth is trying to be revised.
The van Gogh myth started in the 1920s and boomed in the 1950s. But that was the art dealing process. Later, the pop myth was built on the former one. Once the business of the Van Gogh´s pictures was a cashcow they decided to start the pop iconography. For that the serious research and new findings had to be stopped, so the script wouldn´t be changed: there are two mysteries: the ear and the suicide. Vincent confirmed the agreed versions. Other researchers gathered further evidence. The recent "Pact of silence" and the theory of an accidental shot that Vincent in a very noble way turned into a suicide...Both are rejected or put on a shelf, mainly by the Van Gogh Rijkstmuseum. A new script could somehow affect the huge investments and the profits of an official biography would have to be changed.
Hollywood movies, especially Kirk Douglas acting as Vincent, have been trash for the public. The pop Van Gogh iconography ignores all the Letters and the interpretation of the vivid images, as optimistic and lively, instead as cry of anguish. Misinformation sells, they took sensational images and sold it unexplained. Few people will ever buy more than a short biography or read the Letters to Theo. And yet, tose letters were the first strategy Johanna Van Gogh used to bring his inheritance back to life...in 25 years Van Gogh became famous, and in less than a century after his death, the myth became immortal...But also unchangeable.
Very informative and impressive. I would have been standing👏
'pushed all the right buttons...' A sick fascination at best. The work says something else all together!
I watched this lecture three times already, I just started to notice how the film maker Terrence Malick is heavily influenced by Van Gogh
A brilliant lecture.Thank you, so informative.
this was a wonderful talk! thank you for sharing
Have loved Van Gogh for 35 years......
I have never appreciated Van Gogh , but I have never had it explained like this before. But, I certainly have a much better understanding of his work.
This is great.
I just have to say, um, I don't think Egon literally thought he was Van Gogh's reincarnation. He was born before Vincent died. Lol.
Fascinating video and extremely eloquent speaker
Beuatifull told, thx🙏🙏
This was extremely enjoyable to watch. Great lecture 👏🏻 thank you so much
Lecture begins with a roast of the Dutch language. Love it already.
Heel goed Ha ha een de Nederlandse taal de ander Engels ,hebben helemaal geen HANDEN OF VOETEN NODIG OM VERSTAANBAAR TE WORDEN 🥰
Alhoewel ik denk dat de ene de NL taal eerder onder de knie heeft dan de ander het Engels 🤭
After watching the last part of this lecture I must take back what I wrote below. He's an excellent and passionate .lecturer.
An amazing lecture! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!
I love art and painting so much because I'm an Impressionist Painter.😊
7:20 the outline does not exist in nature. It is an imposition of the mind. Claude Monet explains the genius of impressionism.
I see outlines everywhere
Very interesting period of painting. I am deeply moved by many of the paintings and drawings and the intense quality of #aliveness …. Its like an expression of the experience of aliveness as something that interweaves the Human BodyHeartMind and the Universe and all its phenomena and its vastness. wonder and mystery 🎵💜🎶
I´m Dutch and here´s a tip. If you´re an English speaker you should always pronounce the name as Van Go (or Goff if you want). That IS the correct pronunciation, especially considering the hard ´G´ doesn´t even exist in English. If a dummy tells you it´s wrong, ask them how they pronounce the names Xi Jinping (Chinese name) and Tenochtitlan (Aztec name), and when they say they can´t or that they shouldn´t be bothered because we´re not conversing in Chinese or Aztec, tell them to go cry in their baby crib.
Wonderful presentation of the theme, articulate and well put. This scholar knows a lot about what he talks about. Great scholarship.
For me this was an eye opening experience.
Impressive lecture.
Very exciting. Loved it!
