David Lynch : the art life

David Lynch The art life

DVD - 2017

An absorbing portrait of the artist, as well as an intimate encounter with the man himself. From the privacy of his home and painting studio in the Hollywood Hills, a candid Lynch conjures people and places from his past, from his boyhood in Idaho and Virginia to his experiences at art school in Boston and Philadelphia to the beginnings of his filmmaking career in Los Angeles, in stories that unfold like scenes from his movies.

Review by Library Journal Review

Putting paint (and the sundry object d'art) on canvas-not making movies-is the subject of this fascinating documentary by three directors (Rick Barnes, Jon Nguyen, and Olivia Neergaard-Holm) on the enigmatic Lynch's early (and ongoing) artistic passion. Art-studio interviews, home movie footage, archival material, and up-to-date scenes of the artist at work lend an aura of normality to an eccentric vision. A bit of family history allows for insight into the formative process that eventually graduated to animation and live-action shorts and, ultimately, feature films beginning with the seminal Eraserhead.
