Painter

Running 50m, Painter (1995) is a film in the 123movies catalog. Paul McCarthy directs. 1 vote put it at 10/10. In Painter, the mythology of the artist as hero is attacked in a grotesque, parodic performance that unambiguously points to the abstract expressionists. Performing as the painter, McCarthy undermines pre-packaged ideas about the creative process by turning it into an absurdist soap-opera.
