PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT

January 2 – 7

PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT

Dir: Lisa Immordino Vreeland / 2015 / US, Italy, UK / 96 min / DCP

Peggy Guggenheim was an heiress to her family fortune, which helped her become a central figure in the modern art movement. As she moved through the cultural upheaval of the 20th century, she collected not only art— but also artists. She had a major influence on the careers of such well-known figures as Samuel Beckett, Max Ernst, and Jackson Pollock, as well as countless others. In the illuminating documentary Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict, we meet this audacious woman who was not only ahead of her time but helped to define it. “Richly informative and fascinating, it’s a modern art lover’s dream of a film”—John DeFore, The Hollywood Reporter
