'Francis Bacon: Human Presence' Portraits That Lay Bare the Human Soul!

'FRANCIS BACON: Human Presence'

I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing renowned Francis Bacon experts; Katharine Arnold (Vice Chairman & Head of Post-War and Contemporary Art, Europe, Christie’s) and Rosie Broadley (Curator of the exhibition) for The Art Review on London Live TV! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟


This breathtaking exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery delves into Francis Bacon’s profound relationship with portraiture, challenging traditional notions of the genre.

From intimate self-portraits to dramatic tributes to lost lovers, and depictions of close friends like Lucian Freud, Isabel Rawsthorne, and George Dyer The exhibition is a visceral journey through Bacon’s life and art - he was a dynamic innovative maverick of the art-world!


Featuring works from private and public collections, Human Presence reminds us of the raw power of portraiture to confront the primal truths of human existence.


You can see this exclusive feature in the Christmas Special on London Live TV and when I present the upcoming The Art Review & News Friday 20th December 6:30 pm . 


A special thanks to Katharine Arnold, Rosie Broadley and the Communications Team at the National Portrait Gallery for granting us private access.
