Program Description
Event Details
Alice Neel was one of the great portrait painters of the 20th century. She reinvented the genre of portraiture by expressing the inner landscape of her varied sitters, among them Andy Warhol, Annie Sprinkle, Bella Abzug, and Allen Ginsberg. Filmmaker Andrew Neel, Alice Neel's grandson, puts together the pieces of the painter's personal life and career to tell Neel's story, exploring the struggles she faced as a woman artist, a single mother, and a painter who defied convention.
