Presented by art critic Waldemar Januszczak, the series explores some of the most provocative and challenging themes in art history — from sex and desire to death, horror and the Devil himself.

Just a reminder of what to expect:

Art’s Most Erotic
Waldemar travels from Japan to India in search of some of the most sexually explicit art ever made, exploring why artists throughout history have been so drawn to sex and the human body.

Art’s Most Horrific
A journey through art’s fascination with blood, gore and death, examining why images of horror continue to captivate and disturb us.

Art’s Most Satanic
An exploration of how the Devil — the ultimate shape-shifter — has appeared in art across centuries, resurfacing in many unexpected and unsettling forms.

If you missed the series the first time around, or would like to revisit it, this is the perfect opportunity to watch all three episodes in one evening.

This upcoming series is presented by Dr Janina Ramirez and Waldemar Januszczak, two brilliant and entertaining presenters with deep historic roots in the region. Both Nina and Waldy are proud of their Polish heritage, yet aware that their European homeland remains full of mystery and discovery.

Together, they’ll embark on a road trip across Poland, exploring its most fascinating stories, hidden gems, and striking sights. And yes — cars are very much part of Poland’s story too! Waldy is even hoping to track down a classic Polski Fiat, just like the one he first tried to drive when returning to Poland.

The post What is coming up? appeared first on ZCZ Films.

Just a little reminder on what to expect…

Award winning art critic Waldemar Januszczak explores three of art’s most controversial and important subjects in an adventurous international journey. Art’s Most Erotic sees him travelling from Japan to India to find the most explicit art ever made and to ask why art has always been so interested in sex. In Art’s Most Horrific Waldemar confronts terrifying displays of blood, gore and death, and wonders why art is so obsessed with horror. Finally, in Art’s Most Satanic he goes looking for the Devil, the ultimate shape-shifter, who keeps popping up in art in a wicked assortment of disguises.

Art’s Most Erotic

 When it comes to adventurous sex, is there anything new under the sun? Waldemar Januszczak’s journey through sex and desire will take him to key examples scattered along the story of art. From the very beginning, sex and fertility have been crucial artistic subjects. From cave art to the art of ancient Pompeii, from Japan to India, from Toulouse-Lautrec to Stanley Spencer, artists have dealt enthusiastically with sex and arousal. Why?

Art’s Most Horrific 

Horror is one of art’s greatest and oldest subjects. Deep inside the artistic imagination there are some very dark places. And throughout history this darkness has bubbled up in a nightmarish art that is determined to frighten or scare or appal us. Over and over again, artists have used darkness as a weapon. Why?

Art’s Most Satanic

Describing evil – putting a face to it – has long been an important artistic duty. Every civilisation, from the Assyrians to the Greeks, from the Egyptians to the Hindus, has tried to imagine the malignant forces that shape and interfere in human life. And what fun they have had doing it! Putting a face to the Satan has been one of the great tests of the artistic imagination. This film will trace, highlight and enjoy the results.

If you haven’t yet watched it… this is a reminder on what you are missing out on!

Mannerism is the strangest art movement of the old master era. And the most exciting. It challenged the rules and produced art that amazes you. Squeezed between two great eras of art – the Renaissance before it, the Baroque age after it – Mannerism has been understood as an in-between moment. But that’s wrong. The ambition of this series is to introduce Mannerism to the world, to tell its story in detail, and to show what great and exciting art it produced. The movement has always been underestimated. We want to change that.
