I was working on a project about the artist Nicholas Poussin and I spent a lot of time in a small but beautiful room filled with his paintings, at the Dulwich Picture Gallery, London. I call him Papa Poussin, the Painter’s Painter. He had a hand in developing what we expect to see in a painting, and he influenced everybody from Cezanne to Picasso, and even that mean old so-and-so, Francis Bacon.
Anyway, this is some of the music I was listening to as I spent time with his elegiac, tender and bittersweet work. It’s the stuff of life.
