A gift
This movie is a gift to anyone who appreciates modern art. Hofman was both artist and teacher, and many of the greats studied under him, including Wolf Kahn. This documentary features many of his students, including Kahn, discussing his technique and sharing how he influenced their work. Highly recommend.
Wonderful to view after reading Color Creates Light
If you are interested in Hans Hofmann, read Hans Hofmann: Color Creates Light by Tina Dickey, then watch this video. PBS has provided fascinating insight into Hofmann's painting and teaching with primary footage of Hofmann at work, and interviews with his students. As a bonus, you get to see the work of his students, and can see Hofmann's influence in their work.
