Caravaggio - A Life Sacred and Profane: Interview with Andrew Graham-Dixon

[@jamesavickers5961]

Andrew is the reason I have spent my retirement going to see every single Caravaggio in Europe

[@andrewwilton5017]

Omg what a fun endeavour! I have seen 24 of his works. How many have you seen so far? Which is your favourite?

[@michelepacitti5044]

The great thing about Andrew Graham-Dixon (both in his writing and his broadcasting) is that he makes art accessible through his enthusiasm and doesn't assume that we are morons... which quite frequentlly... And, BTW massive kudos to our host (God in all her/his/its forms bless and love him forever) for organising the interview.

I love Andrew Graham Dixon’s work. Watching him and listening to the way he describes periods and artists,help shape my ideas on art 🖼 and history. Very playful yet in-depth Good lad

[@BookTalkToday]

Yes he is brilliant! Don't forget to check out our most recent podcast with him where we discussed 'Michelangelo & The Sistine Chapel'

[@alexhess_artist]

This is such a fantastic talk! I was so pleased to see Andrew Graham-Dixon talking about his book. I have to admit I've read and re-read 'Caravaggio: A Life Sacred and Profane' 5 times. I think this is the book anyone interested in Caravaggio should be required to read. Thanks Andrew a serious gem of art history literature.

[@BookTalkToday]

Thank you Alex. This book is required reading for Caravaggio followers most definitely.

[@notanemoprog]

Such an interesting interview, looking forward to the Vermeer one once the book gets published

Can’t wait to read Andrew Graham Dixon’s book. Hi Judi.

[@AI-qx6ih]

Such a pleasure to hear this talk, definitely have to get the book now. Thank you for publishing this!

[@BookTalkToday]

The pleasure is ours Andreea. Enjoy the book.

[@thepaintedsoul]

Thanks for such a wonderful interview with Mr. Graham-Dixon. I love his work and the Caravaggio title is new to me. I will check it out. It's exciting to know he is also working on the Vermeer book. Vermeer's work has been a constant source of appreciation for me, so I'm anxious to find out his take on Vermeer. And thank you for asking great questions. They really helped flesh out the arc of his Caravaggio book.

[@BookTalkToday]

You're welcome. You're right it was also exciting to hear that he is writing a book on Vermeer. I'm looking forward to reading it.

@@BookTalkToday as much as I admire mister Dixon I was disappointed that he didn't mention anything about his use of a camera obscura

[@antitsa]

Brilliant

[@BookTalkToday]

Thanks so much for listening!

[@gemellodipriapo]

The introduction is a very succinct description of how the class system functions in the UK.

[@finch45lear]

What quality content. Thank you.

[@hariseldon7060]

Great interview..AGD is such a fantastic art historian and writer.

[@paulwoodford1984]

Andrew is a great presenter, writer and entertainer. I hope he presents more Shows in the future. I am so use to seeing him with black hair and a little younger, from watching his shows on The madness of vermeer snd Who killed caravaggio. lol. i hate seeing him vape though. it’s so unhealthy

[@davidwright8432]

Read, enjoyed and was informed by the book; enjoyed the video; thanks to you both! But what strikes me is that Aun could have stepped from a Caravaggio painting! Just a little more directional lighting, and 17th century clothing, and he'd have stepped back into it.

[@nowordsnecessary4419]

Brilliant...

[@BookTalkToday]

Thank you my friend.

[@navmanshack1579]

I'm interested in reading the article that the interviewer briefly mentioned he wrote. Could you please link it me?

[@BookTalkToday]

Hi can you point out in the video which article this was? Thanks

[@studynot757]

I believe the scholarly article that had the footnote about Caravaggio’s murder identity

[@theodorepage6087]

@@studynot757 can't believe you tuck my comments down about his use of acamer obcura

[@studynot757]

@@theodorepage6087 not sure what you're talking about. I can't take down any comments, not my channel

[@andrewhayes5724]

Just a pity he jumped on the bandwagon with all the other BBC cronies, becoming ideological, and politicising his work.
