Alain Elkann Interviews

LUMINARY IN ART CRITIQUE. Andrew Graham-Dixon is a leading art critic and presenter of arts television in the English-speaking world. With a long history of public service in the field of the visual arts he has won numerous awards for writing and broadcasting. His book "Caravaggio A Life Sacred and Profane" is a Sunday Times Bestseller, and his recent title "Vermeer: A Life Lost and Found" paints a dramatically new picture of Vermeer. Graham-Dixon reveals many of the painter's hitherto unknown friendships, as well as his previously undetected allegiance to a radical movement driven underground by persecution. "Vermeer is the first really great religious painter of introspective post-Reformation religion." "The Dutch Golden Age is probably the worst name ever given to a period in history by historians. It's not a golden age. It's an age of blood." "I'm a profound Collegiant. There's not many of us now. I believe in universal tolerance." https://www.alainelkanninterviews.com/andrew-graham-dixon/
