FrameWorks 2019: Art on Film
May 3–10, 2019
A curated series of films about artists and their work, from the emergence of a young Picasso and the phenoms Barbara Rubin and Jean-Michel Basquiat to octogenarians Yayoi Kusama and Joel-Peter and Jerome Witkin. Plus a film by one of today’s most unsettling performance artists, investigations into a famous art heist in Chile, and the “murder” of a Barnett Newman canvas in the Netherlands. It all kicks off with Christo and his Floating Piers, a feat of imagination—and engineering—that allowed over a million visitors to walk on water.
Programmed by Kathryn Bonomi
