Sorry about the super strange formatting – but it’s a busy day and I don’t have time to re-type this announcement. Robert Rauschenberg’s Booster is part of the Henry’s permanent collection – and on currently view here at the Henry until the Violet Hour closes (October 12). This work inspired Matthew Day Jackson’s Missing Link X-Ray which is also on view in the Violet Hour.
Northwest Film Forum is showing Painters Painting in tribute to Robert Rauschenberg next week.
Don’t miss it!
| Painters Painting 35th Anniversary Screening In tribute to artist Robert Rauschenberg September 28-October 1 |
|
Northwest Film Forum is pleased to present a new print of Painters Painting on the 35th anniversary of this essential art documentary, and in tribute to artist Robert Rauschenberg, who passed away this spring. Regarded as one of the best films about the art and practice of painting, this rarely screened film provides a window into the ideals and processes of many of the important American painters of the 50s and 60s. Director Emile de Antonio, who was close friends with the featured artists, was in a unique position to film them informally in their studios.
Candid and spontaneous conversations with Robert Rauschenberg, Willem de Kooning, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Helen Frankenthaler, Frank Stella, Barnett Newman, Hans Hoffman, Jules Olitski, Philip Pavia, Larry Poons, Robert Motherwell and Kenneth Noland (done in monochrome) are interwoven with images of their most well-known paintings (filmed in color). Directed by Emile de Antonio, USA, 1973
