It’s been a while since I posted. I have been busy compiling another video – a a celebration of masks from history, cultures and of course art. The most prolific artist who featured a lot of of masks in his work was probably James Ensor ( 1860 – 1949) and many of his mask paintings are featured in this video. Picasso, Matisse and Watteau also appear in the video, along with masks from different cultures. There’s even a few quirky ones (knitted) which I’ve added and a few TV characters who are famous for wearing masks. Hope you enjoy the video (and recognise some of the paintings)
