Made in 1980 it dealt with the development of modern art since the era of the Impressionists to the Surrealists. My interest was aroused as I caught Robert Hughes being interviewed for television shortly before his death while I was on holiday in Singapore. The Australian art critic and television documentary maker Robert Hughes died in 2012 and his landmark series The Shock of the New was repeated by the BBC in tribute.
