Just watched the above on BBC 4. Hilarious.

Waldemar Januszczak makes this highly educational programme about art,basically into a comic strip.You don't have to watch it all, start wherever you wish (Iplayer) it's non stop mockery.

If anyone likes strange art episode 4 certainly gave that.

Amazing artist but peculiar works. I found this to be a really interesting series of 4 episodes. It gave an insight to all the artists, the times, the places in a really informative and light hearted way. Excellent ! Still available on iPlayer.

Just 2 from this last episode.

The weird and wonderful Hieronymus Bosch, with a sense of humour or a tinge of madness ??? crazy
