Painter and sculptor Arthur Giardelli in conversation with David Moore

Painter and sculptor Arthur Giardelli talks with David Moore from his home in Pembrokeshire about his life and the influences on his work. The film shows Arthur at work on his sculptural reliefs and includes his comments about the art that surrounds him and the inspiration that he gains from living near the sea. It was commissioned by the Contemporary Arts Society for Wales (CASW) in 2006 and produced by Culture Colony (www.culturecolony.com). In 1940 Arthur moved to Merthyr from Folkestone to teach in an evacuated school. There he met the artist Cedric Morris who taught him to paint in oils and he later became a lecturer in art and music at the University in Aberystwyth. He was a founder member of 56 Group Wales and arranged exhibitions of their work in Europe. He travelled widely with his wife, Bim, and established friendships with David Jones, Ceri Richards, Josef Herman and Heinz Koppel.
