Here is an excerpt of Philippe Chancel’s film about artist Fabienne Verdier’s work for Rome’s Palazzo Torlonia. This austere documentary highlights not only the incredible amount of calculated thought and planning Verdier puts into every giant brush stroke movement, but equally into the color, texture and finish of the underlying panels. We also become privy to how Verdier’s small brushwork is incorporated to perfect details of the large marks.
