Silly and Serious:

William Robinson and Self Portraits


25 mins  (2008)


One of Australia’s leading landscape artists, William Robinson has twice won the Archibald Prize for his self-portraits.
Shot in Paris, Brisbane and Melbourne,
SILLY & SERIOUS presents Robinson at work, playing Debussy, and discussing his work: his love for old Laurel and Hardy movies; how humour and sadness can exist in the same portrait.
