Trailer Painting Philip Akkerman
In OLD MASTER, NO SECRETS, Painting Philip Akkerman, Dutch artist Philip Akkerman shares the knowledge he has collected over forty years. The great secret of the old masters, as Akkerman shows in his studio, was that they divided the working process into a number of steps. This working process has been followed for years by the artist, who is equally practical and philosophical. It gives him the maximum control and freedom he needs to realize the essence of his painting in all the thousands of self-portraits he made: to paint all of humanity. And Art history. Because, as Akkerman quotes one of his great heroes, the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, the purpose of our existence is to make a self-portrait. OLD MASTER, NO SECRETS, started as a how-to CZcams video, to share his knowledge with the world, is a layered double self-portrait. A film about the artist working on his self-portraits, a masterclass, and in the end, thanks to the direction the artist partly takes over, is, again, a self-portrait. On film.
OLD MASTER NO SECRETS is a 95 minute slow movie by Dutch filmmaker Maarten de Kroon, inspired and presented by Philip Akkerman.

    In the long run maybe it's a good thing for an artist to be this idiosynchratic and come across as a smidge crazy, overlooking traditional things like composition and other attributes we usually expect in good art and good practice. I have never seen anyone else work in this way. Sometimes an artist can achieve something by throwing out all the rules and just pursuing his own peculiar vision. To say whether any of these paintings are very good I need to see more work. I did enjoy hearing the language, as it reminds me of some of my heroes.

He is so generous and forthcoming. Even priming his panel was a joy. Thank you to everyone for making this. It’s a treasure.
