In an earlier post I mentioned liking films that question the fine art community. In case you wanted to watch a couple I suggest...
 |
| Teri Horton with her thrift shop find. |
Who the #$&% Is Jackson Pollack?, is a documentary about Teri Horton, a retired long haul trucker, and a piece of art she purchased for $5.00.
 |
| Marla Olmstead...poor kid. |
My Kid Could Paint That, is a documentary that questions if a toddler is a prodigy, if her father is a fraud, and why the value of the pieces in question are dependent on the maker.
Orson Welles',
F is for Fake, questions who decides, what is art? I got half way through it before deciding it was too much Orson Welles. But some people can't get enough of him, so there you go.
