What Means Something
Art of the Real 2016
April 8 - 21, 2016
Ben Rivers’s latest exploration of solitude is an intimate, real-time portrait of the painter Rose Wylie at work in her home studio in the English countryside, and a film that truly illuminates a singular creative process.
In the spirit of his previous explorations of solitude (including Two Years at Sea and A Spell to Ward Off the Darkness), Ben Rivers shows painter Rose Wylie at work—in real time—inside her home. Neither passive nor overly styled, this intimate portrait of an artist truly illuminates her singular creative process. In lone sections of the film that acknowledge the camera’s presence, Wylie speaks about her past work while thumbing through a sketchbook and reads an extensive passage from an essay titled “What Are Masterpieces?” A treat for both fans of the artist and the director.
