New York, NY, October 16, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Gauguin: The Full Story

“The finest artistic biography ever made.”
THE TIMES

Debuts on DVD November 16.

Kultur is proud to announce the DVD release of Gauguin: The Full Story. Hailed by The Times as “the finest artistic biography ever made,” Gauguin: The Full Story features a stunning collection of Gauguin's masterpieces shot in museums and galleries around the world.

This is the first full-length biography of one of the world’s most popular yet controversial artists. Gauguin is best known for his gorgeous paintings of Tahiti in which beautiful native girls disport themselves enticingly on perfect South Pacific beaches. But have these celebrated portrayals of an earthly paradise been misunderstood? And has the fame of Gauguin’s Tahiti pictures blinded us to the bigger truth about his achievements? This epic biography of Gauguin follows the painter through countless twists and turns in a remarkable life that takes him from an idyllic and forgotten childhood in Peru to a horrific and notorious death on the Marquesas Islands.

Art critic and broadcaster Waldemar Januszczak has written and directed this examination of a man who was not only a great painter but sculptor, wood carver, musician, print maker, journalist and ceramicist. As well as telling the remarkable story of Gauguin's life.
