When Vincent Met John
Malvernbard
Vincent van Gogh died in 1890, John Lennon died in 1980, both of gunshot
wounds to the chest. But Imagine what might have happened had they
actually met? Five years before their deaths both men underwent profound
change. Vincent renounced his religious ambitions and began painting in
earnest, creating his greatest masterworks. John renounced sex, drugs
and rock 'n' roll for five years seclusion as a family, creating a son,
and his last album. Taking place at their exact moment of crisis and
decision, this is a spiralling shout of love, death, art and legacy.
