Waldemar Januszczak's new three-part series Art's Most premiers on Sky Arts on 30th September 2025. 

According to the art critic's website:

Award winning art critic Waldemar Januszczak explores three of art’s most controversial and important subjects in a hair-raising international journey.

Art’s Most Erotic sees him travelling from Japan to India to find the most explicit art ever made and to ask why art has always been so interested in sex.

In Art’s Most Horrific Waldemar confronts terrifying displays of blood, gore and death, and wonders why art is so obsessed with horror.

Finally, in Art’s Most Satanic, he goes looking for the Devil, the ultimate shape-shifter, who keeps popping up in art in a wicked assortment of disguises.
