- In our 'Francis Bacon: First Impressions' series of interviews, each interviewee was asked ‘What were your first impressions upon meeting Francis?’
In this film the artist Michael Clark talks about meeting Bacon and Muriel Belcher at the Colony Room Club, as well as visiting Bacon's studio and Bacon sitting for him.
First Impressions is directed by Harriet Vyner, and produced by the Estate of Francis Bacon in partnership with HENI Talks.
That was awesome... great to hear new stories on Bacon
Wondeful thanks so much for putting this together ! Loved hearing about the possible origins of the use of Corduroy and also the question mark. So many wonderful anecdotes that being Francis back to life. 💞💞💞
Illuminating revelations...the Hearing Ear as the Question Mark; and Michael Clark is an incredibly incisive and intense portraitist; Clark is still extremly underrated.
Truly fascinating, thank you for making this.
These vidéos are such a treat...
Thank you Jean-Daniel Mohier, we are pleased that you are enjoying the series. There are more to come!
Every man and every woman is a star. Alistair Crowley
Incredible.
Great anecdotes, I love the safety pin details
Thank you for watching. We are glad you enjoyed the Michael Clark interview.
1:33 so how is it that the actual owner of the bar can't vouch for your membership. Seems suspect.
so how did he fix the pastel?? never got to the bottom of that
The dedication in book at beginning says? ‘With all but [wisdom]’? What’s the last word?
The dedication says 'To Michael / With all best wishes / Francis Bacon'.
i think lagger is the word..
Yet another example of a minor figure caught in the orbit of a stellar personality who is reading too much into his connection with the artist. I can't see Bacon being fascinated by or even remotely interested in this dull man.
Dull?
@@MontyCantsin5dull in that he traced photos and pretended it was art maybe? he’s far to interested in another artist to be an artist..
@@pitchforkcustom: Well he did know Bacon and was liked by him so your argument falls flat right there.
The devil is in the details!
I'm surprised Bacon wanted this strange man around him
I refuse to use the common acronym for 'laugh out loud', but take my word for it.
What a rubbish lol
came across him several times in Soho,my memory of him is, he was an incredibly ugly person in many respects.
Do go on…
Nasty utility knife wound on your left thumb, Mr Clark - surely you're not still cutting your own mats. . .
Is it just me or does he look like Benny from Crossroads but not as intelligent.
stalker?
