Renoir
RENOIR REVERED AND REVILED
Based on the collection at the Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia
Written and Directed by Phil Grabsky
Pierre-Auguste Renoir is known and loved for his impressionist paintings of Paris. These paintings count among the worlds favorites. Renoir, however, grew tired of this style and changed course.
This stunning film based on the remarkable collection of 181 Renoirs at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia examines the direction he then took and why it provokes such extreme reactions right up to today. Some claim they are repulsed by Renoirs later works and some claim they are seduced. What may surprise many is that among the many artists who sought Renoirs new works out and were clearly highly influenced by them were the two giants of the 20th century Picasso and Matisse. The film is a fresh new biography of this artistic giant but more than that it uncovers a rarely told story that places Renoir as a critical link between the old and the new.
