Francis Bacon on YouTube

One of the many benefits of YouTube is the ability to hear and see the words and actions of favorite painters. This one is part of a series on Francis Bacon. He talks about paintings, his own paintings and his views on Pollack and Rothko.

What a fascinating video clip! I especially like that Bacon criticized Rothko's paintings for being ugly and depressing and then said he hoped people would dislike his own paintings. I'm glad I got a chance to see this. Thanks for posting.
