SynopsisVan Gogh is the first of a series of icons to whom we pay tribute. Although his name and genius are globally recognized, it is a well-known and tragic fact that Vincent himself did not live to see his life's work and inspirational message recognized and embraced. His legacy makes us all alive to the difficulties of life and art and to the human capacity to overcome adversity and tenaciously strive to touch the world. If his story shows anything it is that belief in one's talent, and passion, focus, and persistence in struggling to nurture and express it, are the keys to unlock our potential for success . . . and lie within anyone's grasp. The audio-biography format is the ideal means to reach as large an audience as possible. Expertly written and beautifully narrated, its modest duration of less than two hours serves as a short but serious biography for those culturally interested but too young, busy or energetic to linger, while the accompanying books instill curiosity with the wider legacy, its history and its actuality., Developed in close collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum, written by the museum's former chief curator dr. Fred Leeman, and narrated by Academy Award(c)-winner Dame Helen Mirren, this audio-biography provides you with a highly accessible and lively expert account of Van Gogh's life in just under two hours. The accompanying art booklets trace the development of his revolutionary work and its increasingly successful reception up to this day. Helen Mirren narrates the story of Vincent's struggle for recognition, and his existential doubts about the value of success. Vincent's quest to live an authentic, artistic, life is an endeavor that speaks to our shared human uncertainties and strengths. Here, for the first time, the artist's marketing acumen, his protracted struggle for recognition, and his ultimate refusal of that same recognition are put center-stage. The booklets allow you to reflect on Van Gogh's work while listening, and illustrate in lavish detail how his oeuvre was catapulted to ever greater fame after his tragically early death. Taken together, the audio-biography & art book lets you follow Van Gogh's challenging ascent from a late and unpromising start to the heights of his current reputation."
Narrated byMirren, Helen
