While some prefer to remain unaware of the hard work and challenges involved in creating a work of art, preferring to savor the aesthetic experience rather than the behind-the-scenes story, many others are fascinated by the inspiration and aura that emanate from this artistic process.
The series invites us to discover what made the great masters - Le Corbusier, Rembrandt, Velázquez, Niki de Saint Phalle, Andy Warhol, Picasso, and others - and artistic movements - comics, paparazzi, architecture, and more - successful, and reveals how artistic work is shaped and influenced by its era.
