The first UK film biography of the world-renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), whose print The Great Wave is as globally famous as Leonardo's Mona Lisa. With Andy Serkis reading the voice of Hokusai, the film features artists David Hockney and Maggi Hambling, and passionate scholars who study, admire and venerate this great Japanese master. The film focuses on Hokusai's work, life and times in the great, bustling metropolis of Edo, now modern Tokyo. Using extraordinary close-ups and pioneering 8K Ultra HD video technology, Hokusai's prints and paintings are examined by world experts. In the process they reveal new interpretations of famous works and convey the full extent of Hokusai's extraordinary achievement as a great world artist. Hokusai spent his life studying and celebrating our common humanity as well as deeply exploring the natural and spiritual worlds, using the famous volcano Mount Fuji as a protective presence and potential source of immortality. He knew much personal tragedy, was struck by lightning and lived for years in poverty, but never gave up his constant striving for perfection in his art. Hokusai influenced Monet, Van Gogh and other Impressionists, is the father of manga and has his own Great Wave emoji.

哪怕是单纯为绘画感兴趣也应该仔细看一下。一直以来西方对于东方文化艺术的着迷是显而易见的,乍一看,好像日本自成一派。可是整个东方的历史脉络和文化交融确实是需要深入研究的。可以看看西方研究视角下的东方艺术表现形式。以及这些人和作品对他们产生了如何的影响。难能可贵的是,还又对于作者本人有多维度的介绍和研究,可以猜测窥探作者作品的创作背景。
