How Artists Respond to Love

Art, it turns out, is filled with love and heartbreak. The artistic process itself, most readily available to the artist, is often the means by which they deal with romantic turmoil. But why do they do it? Why expose oneself so fully to potential trauma? Let's take a look at the ways that artists have dealt with love over the years, in all, its ecstatic, often messy forms. This film is part of a new series The Art of Discomfort which looks at how artists explore or present challenging themes in their work.
