Julian Schnabel: A Private Portrait
A chronicle of the personal life and public career of the celebrated artist and filmmaker Julian Schnabel.
Jean-Michel Basquiat, artiste absolu
The life and work of New York artist Jean-Michel Basquiat have been marked by a long quest for identity, by his Haitian and Puerto Rican family origins and by a founding trip to Africa. To portray this major painter of the 20th century, who died in 1988 at only 27 years old, is also to evoke the place of black American artists in the conservative and racist America of the Reagan years.
