Who Was Vincent Van Gogh? | Artrageous with Nate

who is VAN GOGH ? VAN GOGH was an idiot, who thought if he hurt himself everyone would take pity on him and he would become famous. HE STINKS !!!

我想要中文

Did Van had Armenian roots?
I heard some in that effect.

I've been on a Van Gogh binge and there's always different versions of his life....I wonder which one is the most accurate.

My toenails are rolling up on the first sentence. The ear incident seems to get more fame than his art and there's lots of bad jokes floating about the internet. But noone considers that Vincent most likely has a mental illness making him often react irrationally. Mental illness is not a laughing matter. But it is suggested he only cut off a bit of his ear, not these as whole. And yes they had quite a few Vincents in the family. The painter had an uncle by the same name, called "uncle Cent"

You have to see the movie “Loving Vincent” it explain why vincent couldnt have shot himself

This was great. Vincent Van Gogh is one of my favorite artists. I can't help but think much of his mental illness was attributed to his consumption of "Absinthe" alcohol, the hardships of life back then and poor nutrition. Also, have you seen the great movie "At Eternity's Gate" starring William DeFoe as Van Gogh. That movie suggests he was shot by Hooligans. Thank you for this episode!

His name was not pronounced Van Go.

New knoledge says that Vincent didn't shot himself !
He was regularily bullied by two sons of the local policeofficer .
It seems they took dad's gun out of the draw and thretened Vincent with it , I guess it was an accident , not on perpose .
In the 1950s one of the sons seems to have confessed this on his dieingbed .
To be honest , I can't believe Vincent to commit suïcide , his paintings were to lively and vivid for that .

Săracul om Van Gogh ce era pe capul lui , trebuia să lucreze ,avea nevastă ,el vroia să lucreze aia nu îl lăsa ,s a gândit că dacă mai aduce pe una o să fie mai bine ,da așa și a îngreunat viața, că îl înnebunea când vedea ce făcea ele

THIS GUY SHOULD REALLY ITS OUT OF RESPECT OR LACK THERE OF HE SAYS TAO ITS PRONOUNCED THEO ' . I REALLY GET PISSED OFF WHEN PEOPLE WHO KNOW BETTER ' GET AWAY WITH BS .

Dutch, English and French is not impressive, it's normal there.

Gogh is not pronounced 'go'. it's more like Gokkhh

It is believed with credible logic that Vincent was killed by a young male as opposed to having committed suicide. There is an episode of 60 Minutes and a couple of documentaries about it if it interests anyone.

Van Gogh seems to share INFP-T traits... takes one to know one

Without Jo Van Gogh were would Vincents art be now? I envision a vagabond being hired to take it to the dump. How many artists works and names have dissapered because of never being promoted well.

Vincent reminds me a lot of Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd. Both were creative souls whose mental health got in the way of a bright future, and both were artists.

Sounds like he had Asperger's, I was lead here by Ellie Goulding's beautiful rendition of "Vincent". My Daughter has high functioning Autism, her mind, memory, effortless abilities amaze me. Van Gough, Thank you. :)

Don't feel bad, Nate. I had to do 1st grade twice

So now is the question why people like his art nowadays.
When he was alive nobody wanted his art and he almost died of poverty.
Is it about the stories of his letters ?

Then maybe he was better of as a writer,
Pls tell me what you think of Vincent his art.

Ps,
I came to this by unwanted made a painting that people say it's like his style.

Syphilis art 🙂

What diseases can do to you.

maybe you should learn how to pronounce his name before anything else? Sorry but its quite elementary?

Not orchids, irises!

Im surprised PBS is still pushing lies about Van Gogh - even. by 2017 the truth about Gaugin cutting Van Gogh's ear off was known, as well as the truth about 2 kids shooting him, and Van Gogh taking the blame since he knew he was dead anyway...

At least they got the intelligence part right...

Fuck the guy who told him not to make music

Where as I appreciate your enthusiasm and the work in producing this video, as it turns out though, Irises (1889) are not orchids, and were not painted upon his arrival at Arles, rather much later in St.Remy while in hospital. Proper identification, and chronology of works fused with his emotional arc is the story of Van Gogh. This should be the focus, rather than an airing out of a persons unsanitary conditions, vices and bad eating habits. Van Gogh was a deeply troubled man, he painted furiously to cope with the diminishing reality of his life. Today we celebrate is art as some of the greatest produced by humankind, but I would argue his legacy is what a human can accomplish, even at the bleakest hours of ones life.

Monet

It seems that quite a few painters licked their brushes clean, the paint containing lead lead to "the Mad Hatter" syndrome. Add his love for Absinthe (from a herb called Wormwood in English and Artemisia Absinthium in Latin) to it and his short escapade in the UK with a lady and you get the picture.

He shot himself in the stomach, not chest.

Super interesting!!!

you are saying his sir name wrong it is gof not go but otherwise the video is very good and helped me with my homework

The painting you said contains orchids are irises.

A film very much worth watching is Leonard Nimoy's made for TV movie, Vincent. Nimoy play's this as a one man show and portray's Vincent's brother, Theo. A lot of the script is Nimoy reading from Vincent's letters to Theo. This could be static and uninteresting, but Nimoy brings both Van Goghs to life. It's gripping and fascinating.

I love Vincent Van Gogh paintings.

I loved everything about this video! Thank you very much!

You seemed to have the important aspects in his life and show a few visuals that I have not seen. There is controversy over his death as some believe that young lads shot him, however the suicide factor is in the main about lacking achievement with his art and the death gave our civilisation an artist striving for his art with passion and problems. Kirk Douglas was good in the film lust for life.

There is a lot of misinformation here...

I'm listening to Vincent (Starry, starry night) by Don McLean. Such a beautiful and sad song.

He had schizophrenia

This video was used in my school seen by 80 kids

Well there's a deeper meaning into why Vincent cut his ears off. It all started when he met this girl and she had burn marks because of treatment, Vincent is too emotional and he wanted to share the same pain with the girl so he cut his ears off so that they would share the same pain and he gave it to the girl because Vincent thought that this was the best idea to help the poor girl

I watched your vids in art class and I absolutely love your vids. You are so into it and happy and you make the videos interesting. Even though I don't really care about his type of stuff, I wanted to tell you this.

And he might not have killen himself.

Paul and Vincent were good friends but they had a lot of conflicts because of Vincents anger issues. You forgot to tell a lot and focussed more on were he lived then on the Pain he had the go throug the majority of his life. He was poor and depressed.

Hen he went to Engeland he actually was replaced there to work in the goupiel & Cie there. After that he quit and went to Belgium.
