We know Bacon mainly by the output from the 60s and 70s but boy, that pre-Marlborough Gallery work is dark and tremendous. Great to see it all laid out (almost) chronologically here. Thank you.

The perfect abstract realist . The work show figures in motion , that morph in and out of existence . And in some aspects it reminds me of souls being stretched from their bodies as they scream in agony. Then there is the stylized representation of creatures and corpses up against a stark red field . Amazing visual works that I found very disturbing when I was young. But as I became an older artist and a bit more learned , I saw alot of brilliantly painted pain , and that's not easy to do .

I've seen many famous artists work after alot of travelling. I've loved them all, but am always strongly more drawn to glass display cabinets full of their sketchbooks, easel, paintbrush pallette paints etc. Things like a pair of glasses, palletes full of dried paint , smock, beret or hat , loose sketches and experiments always make me feel closer to their soul and who they were . You feel like you've actually met them in person . They tend to show clothes, shoes, half empty glass of wine , cigarette stub in ashtray ...all sorts...I love it. Bacon's art studio was amazing. He used the walls, doors , mirrors and tables as his pallete and mixing plate. It's an absolute mess, but I love it, it's full of energy and passion for expressing himself. It shows the long hard journey towards a finished piece , the painting. Bacon was a genius ,fired up, eccentric artist... One of a kind. Wonderful. 💚💚💚💚

How wonderful, thank you so much, God bless you. I met Francis, when I made a trip to London. I went to his address and knocked at his door. He opened, asked me what's up and I said I'm from Austria, visiting London. He let me enter and in the evening we went out to dinner, gambling an then, very late at night we went in to a weird place, full of strange and interesting people also meeting Lucian Freud. 2 days later we went for breakfast in a small delicatessen shop with 2 tables in a back room with Lucian Freud who shared a large piece of nougat with us. Those days I'll never forget as long as I may live. Looking forward to your next video, greetings from Christian and family 🎨

In the 1990s I had the good fortune to be photographing in a closed and mostly dark gallery where a large Francis Bacon painting was on display. In the semi darkness it was magnificently creepy and visually stunning. I couldn't keep from walking up to it over and over again to look at the texture. Gave me the shivers. After years of looking at Bacon's paintings, I don't think he's always 'just going' for the creepy and unsettling, I think he primarily goes for a powerful visual effect and when he's got it he seems to stop. This is what I noticed in the paining of George Gyer featured in the Dublin City Museum, where his "shambolic studio" (great description) is recreated. Get an arm's length from the face on this canvas and study it with your right eye. When the image start to slide you'll feel a thrill and you'll experience Francis Bacon as he did. The rest of the canvas seems unfinished - of course that doesn't matter.

Thank you for educating me on this very interesting artist! I'm reading The Elegance of The Hedgehog and it mentions Bacon. I had no idea who he was.

I did really enjoy this lesson on Francis Bacon. Thank you. I've always been perplexed and fascinated by his work. As a painter, I can't help but wonder; if Bacon came up with his unique style and way of presenting imagery and anatomy and reality in an authentic way, then what should my work look like? Surely we can't just copy people we really like. That won't do. But where I see Bacon jumping ahead was in his viewing of Picasso. And what influence was Graham Sutherland? And is this kind of distortion now over with? Have David Lynch's films had the last word on this kind of thing? I guess, being in pretty good health and in my sixties I should just plod along. Maybe I'll see something emerge that looks really original. Maybe I lack objectivity. Generally, Francis Bacon completely blows my mind. I think he lived through more, and worse hardships than I've ever known. My work of late has gotten a bit floaty, a bit hazy, maybe even interestingly strange. Maybe a relatively safe, careful life without jarring hazards or tragedies can only generate so much. Not trying to be self centered here, but I think most painters observing Bacon will inevitably ask themselves if they can ever get to a place like that. One more thing; was Dali a factor in Bacon's life? Thanks for your great material. Always love watching!

Not sure Dali was an influence. I think the reason Bacon worked as he did is, was as you say, is what he experienced in terms of the war, but perhaps more importantly, the fact that his very being was deemed illegal. Even his father resented him. In those circumstances you either accept your lot or fight it. He fought, lived on the edge, he took risks, he didn't compromise, not matter what the consequences. His art was not subject to self censorship, as a result he pushed the boundaries to the extremes, both in subject matter and technique.
