Title from title frames. Film. Originally produced by Ronin Films in 2015. Danila Vassilieff was a major Australian artist and personality who was also Russian - a bold cossack, from South Russia, a defender of the czar.. His fascinating life and profound humanity are the subject of a compelling and wide-ranging documentary. When individualism was 'in the air' in the 1940s, he liberated a group of younger painters - Nolan, Boyd, Tucker, Hester, Perceval and Blackman - to paint their own original visions. Vassilieff shaped the figurative nature of Australian art. His own emotional state drove the reality of his art and linked it to Russian folk art.. The Wolf in Australian Art is the first time Vassilieff's story has been told on film. A Shostakovich soundtrack, blended with a Russian apace choir and a treasure trove of archival material all add atmosphere and colour to the vivid adventures of this quintessentially free spirit as he travels from St Petersburg to London, Sydney, Melbourne, Warrandyte and Mildura, where he ended up..
