100 years from now this man will be in the history books and kids will be studying his technique and life
YEs, its very strange that some people have to die to see what they did objectively...
@@hoenircanute he knows..
"I could do it better" lol! I love his audacity
What a pleasure to go with the master on a tour like this!
at 22:19 he says : " I've always had this interest that, if I get impressed by something, I want to do the same." .... I think this is a very common feeling ( and a valuable one) but many artists now are afraid to follow through.
Wow, this is Odd Nerdrum! I have his book but I’ve never seen him in video. A man as elegant and powerful as his paintings!
And we have no understand of him even here in Norway while he is alive, nobody understands him and he is prosecuted and hated; or loved as some do. But not understood. Its the curse of an artist while he is living it seems. When he is dead it will be another story.. They will hold him as a precious national treasure even though they treated his as shit when he lived; he never got a DIME from Norwegian state! all other artists here get everything they ask for! WHen u start earning money the government comes for u!!
Tusen hjertelig takk for at dere deler denne dokumentaren. Veldig fint å kunne få denne muligheten til litt innsikt.
Thank you for making this video. I hope you guys are blessed in your life. Thanks....
I'm a poet and I sometimes become jealous of painters. I tried to paint, but it was hopeless. But I love being a poet more than I could ever love painting. Odd Nerdrum is my favorite living painter. But it's conceivable that I haven't witnessed all the paintings in the contemporary world. I couldn't tell the Rembrandt was ruined.
A painter needs a canvas, but a poet could create art, even at the most obscure places such as in a youtube commentary field. That is but one thing that makes poetry so fascinating.

The «bad restoration» part is powerful, Odd tells it like it is when it comes to art, he does not bow down to museum bureaucrats! His eye is wiser and sharper than theirs. He is fearless when he sees something ugly. The knowledge this painter has is a lexicon. He has a natural arrogance, but it comes from a deep love of classical art. He is like a hawk with a paintbrush in his grip.
Odd Nedrum has been to Nesna University College in Norway and failed to complete any lecture on art ... Evidence that Odd Nedrum is not quite the right artist .... and jokes about the restoration of Danae, 1643 by Rembrandt van Rijn .. .
Only words are: Absolutely insane and Hello ...
Nedrum is not able to respect Russia and Russian culture ... He does not own a culture attitude ... and a custom to meet other cultures --- and can not speak English once))))
Would anyone call it arrogance for a doctor to see their child dismembered in a surgery and respond in defence “I could have done better”?
Muchas gracias, sobre todo muy ilustrativo, necesitamos más documentos como este.
Beautiful thanx for sharing!
I loved this documentary. Finally an artist that raises the bar.
Love this blokes paintings
Odd Nerdrum is quite right in every aspect regarding how art develops ones-self.
His coat is magnificent. Of course.
Beautifully made film about a fascinating & intelligent artist. Thank you...
Super
I would like to buy one of your paintings someday.
The man believes he can restore that painting better and get it done in one week. Nothing wrong with that. If he really can do it better and only within one week, then that is a wonderful gift that shouldn't be rejected.
I don't think she knew who she was talking to.
Velga Al Rasyid thats odd nerdrum, a master painter. Who would managed it
Thanksss for eng subsss
If you know someone has a blindspot--and everyone does--ask him what he's looking at when you happen to see him looking contemplatively. He will tell you what he can see. Then get him to describe it. Then ask him why he likes it. He will tell you what he thinks beauty is. Try this sometime.
He is morethan Rembrand and any artist in the world that i ever seen, he is genius artist
Love this, but any hope for english subtitles?
There are there... maybe not 6 years ago... but they are there now.
: ) xoxo I know I love that old work too. 2022 .. have to totally think outside of that world . Make new world ° K
REMBRANDT ...ich liebe seine Werke ganz besonders.
I do not accept that he is any kind of master at painting. But I do accept that he has a huge ego and believes his own myth. Great art is always a pleasure to see. His paintings are simply unpleasant reminders of a disturbed personality. This is not just a subjective opinion.
wow, you accept that he has a huge ego... how generous you are
To be honest you do need a serious amount of self belief or confidence to be an artist. Of course integrity plays a large part as well. I'm of the personal belief that it takes many lifetimes to develop the skills and attributes of an artist of his ability. Tha ability to feel God.
16:00 you thought a Repin painting was disgusting..? I'm glad you changed your mind
LOL that lady was so annoyed by Nerdrum. Did she know who that was at the moment?
Just another human being who eat food and shit just like her
this man is really genius
As artists we have absolutely no bearing or influence on the world anymore. Art no longer changes anything. My own genre, poetry, has been this way for at least 30 years, after the death of Anne Sexton. The only thing we can do is unite. Do you read Atsuro Riley or Mark Strand? None of my friends have ever heard of Odd Nerdrum, except than I mentioned him. Some of them are poets. It is as if each genre ignores the others. Has a painter ever read a favorite work and painted the images he saw in his mind's eye? I can only think of one poet who paints. His name is Jonathan Rice. I don't like his paintings. Of course, no one has ever done both. That's not the point though. There is no effort for dialogue between the arts, that I can see.
I Russland bare topp restaurering...
20:35
Really very much appreciated his comments in modern art; such a waste of talent, and artistically probably reflect class differences.
BUT still I said....I can resell ...... You sell . I can re sell odd.... I am working on a wash... On phone. Paint. I'll ..I said. No. No ....no ....I'll HMMMM sketch shades paint one. One......one. One. One color wash. Washington Brand. Own. Toss into pile. Owner. Fast yes ° K
do you use drugs?
Lady: you think you can do better? It took twelve years.
Nerdrum: yes. In a week.
Boss level 1000 😂
this guys huffing gas
What an incredible moment where the world's greatest living classical painter offers restoration, only to be met with the ego of an assistant. I bet she'll feel embarrassed one day
LEARN I INVESTED IN SUPER PERMANENT COMMERCIAL BUSINESSES. PRODUCTS STYLES BRANDS. BUT I GET SAD. LOOKING. CRY. BECAUSE HERE ITS LIKE NOT EVEN SOMETHING.. LIKE IT'S WTF R U DOING????? THAT SHIT ALREADY SOLD WTF R U THINKING.. HA ∆K

To sell . Unique. Document.. to me like. Very . Long complicated process .... Man and woman artist so very hard. Not just female or man both .. to make art so great xo I am very thoughtful....I know ° K
this guy is overrated. I think people are starting to catch on. No humility. A bunch of other "trying way to hard to be different artists" practically follow this guy around and throw rose pedals at his feet. His technique is nothing new, nothing revolutionary. He's just trying to be different and you all have been fooled. My name is Devin Roberts, I dont give a shit if this pisses him off, ODD NERDRUM IF YOU DIDN'T ACT LIKE YOU ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD, i might consider you to be a great painter, but when you act like your shit is holy it makes you nothing in my mind. How rude of you to treat this lady that way, if I was there I would have put you in your place.
also richard t scott, that's the best crony you can turn out. That little nut could listen to himself speak for days, he'd probably die of starvation and thirst because his own voice kept him so entertained he forgot to eat or drink.
devin roberts He had something worthwhile to say. I am afraid you don,t. You remind me of some one I know who can look at a painting and worry about the little bit of fluff on it rather than look at the painting itself
devin roberts Why should he worry about doing something new when he's doing something good? Is Schoenberg superior to Bach just because he was new and revolutionary while Bach was much more of a traditionalist? Is Hugo Ball's 'Karawane' better than the works of Alexander Pope? If it's good, it doesn't have to be new.
So, in your interpretation he's a bad painter because he's not humble and people treat him with respect and value his opinions¿?¿? That's some sound logic here, if I ever heard one.
You wouldn't have done shit m8
a man that writes a book on contemporary representational art called "Kitsch", claims he can do a better job at restoring a Rembrandt (3:20) that should only take him a week to do is without doubt an egocentric head case. by self-deprecating his rep art as kitsch he is merely displaying ego and arrogance. but the proof is in the pudding, i compared his stuff side-by-side to rembrandt and comparatively they are pure s**t, no "master" here but a clever marketing whiz.
That was a bit dickish of him to call that woman out about the restoration of the painting, she handled it beautifully.
you haven,t a clue This bloke is a genius
***** My daughter got me his book Crime and Refuge, for christmas. The video clips don,t do justice to his masterly brushwork. Any body who thinks he is overrated tell them to go and have a real good look at someone like Picasso and you will see how far we have regressed in the Arts. Odd gives us hope that there still are real masters out there.
trahapace150 I,m into art mate not arseology
ancient artist i love how people point out his terrible attitude, and you comment on everything but that, get over your fanboyism the guy was rude, and demeaning to a woman who was just doing her job giving tours, No amount of skill excuses that.
