New York Portraits: The New York School VOD // Hot Docs at Home

American art came of age thanks to a band of Abstract Expressionists known as the New York School. These painters, poets and performers were not content to imitate European masters and styles. They looked within to create monumental art that remains a singular expression of the modern quest for individuality and personal freedom. Providing a retrospective overview of the movement, this rare 1972 documentary features interviews with and footage of the major artists of the time including Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Jack Tworkov, while also offering insight into ideas and issues raised by the paintings themselves.

New York Portraits: There's simply no place like it. We're bringing the art, culture and history of New York to you with four vibrant portraits of the city through the decades.
