BECHTLER MODERNISM + FILM SERIES: FINAL PORTRAIT
|
January 24, 2019
6PM
Bechtler Museum of Modern Art
Final Portrait
is a portrait of a genius, and of a friendship between two men who are utterly different, yet increasingly bonded through a single, ever-evolving act of creativity. It is a film which shines a light on the artistic process itself, by turns exhilarating, exasperating and bewildering, questioning whether the gift of a great artist is a blessing or a curse.
