Movie8.0DocumentaryJackson Pollock said, “he makes the rest of us look academic,” Mark Rothko acknowledged him as a “myth-maker” and Clement Greenberg called him “a highly influential maverick and an independent genius.” Clyfford Still, one of the strongest, most original contributors to abstract expressionism, walked away from the commercial art world at the height of his career. Extremely disciplined, principled, and prolific, Still left behind a treasure trove of works like no other major artist in history. With a wonderful mosaic of archival material, found footage and audio recorded by the artist himself, Lifeline paints a picture of a modern icon, his uncompromising creative journey and the price of independence.

Movie6.0A riveting short film about the work of artist Mark Bradford. Directed by Dime Davis with cinematography by Isiah Donté Lee the film is set to the intensely beautiful percussive sounds of Chief WaKIL. Bradford's voice drives the narrative, a rumination on the formative moments in his life, the process of his work, and what it means to be an artist.
