Constable: A Country Rebel(2014)
Constable: A Country Rebel Synopsis
The Haywain by John Constable is such a comfortingly familiar image of rural Britain that it is difficult to believe it was ever regarded as a revolutionary painting, but in this film, made in conjunction with a landmark exhibition at the V&A, Alastair Sooke discovers that Constable was painting in a way that was completely new and groundbreaking at the time. Through experimentation and innovation, he managed to make a sublime art from humble things and, though he struggled in his own country during his lifetime, his genius was surprisingly widely admired in France.
Constable: A Country Rebel (2014) is a documentary film directed by Spike Geilinger, released on September 7, 2014 with a runtime of 58m. It stars Alastair Sooke.
