Simon Schama's Power of Art 3PK DVD

List Price: $49.98
Our Price: $44.99

Item No.: SSPA400
3 DVD Set

Beautiful. Fascinating. Emotional. Art is all of the above. But only a few are powerful. Focusing on eight iconic works of art, Power of Art reveals the history of visual imagination through the ages, from the murderous world of baroque Rome to paranoid, revolutionary Paris; from the carnage of civil-war Spain to the paradox of 1950s New York, caught between Cold War jitters and Manhattan glitter.

This series is a powerful and fascinating look into the lives and work of several influential artists. It's a must-watch for any artist or anyone interested in art history.

excellent - with captions!!

By JMB

from Door County, WI

Comments about PBS Simon Schama's The Power of Art 3PK DVD:

Highly dramatized and very accessible, and the captions were fine on my copies...altho a bit tricky to get "on" (it appears to be "off"). I've used with many ages and it is well - recieved by all. I only wish here were more of the Schama series.

Comments about PBS Simon Schama's The Power of Art 3PK DVD:

Each episode is beautifully realized, engaging and insightful. It brings a new light to so many different works of art, but most importantly, provides an intimate history of each featured artist. I love it myself, as do my classes of high school students. I highly recommend this set.

Schama makes art sexy !

By Cara Donna

from Plymouth, MA

Verified Reviewer

Comments about PBS Simon Schama's The Power of Art 3PK DVD:

Simon Schama does a wonderful job bringing vibrancy and sexiness to the lives of the artists he has chosen. The piece about Gian Lorenzo Bernini is stranger than fiction...Schama gives you all the pulpy details of Bernini's character along with his divine revelation in the form of Saint Theresa. Schama turns the story inside-out to reveal a gorgeous and critical truth but you'll have to watch to find out!
