Drawing Out The Demons Wednesday 12th | 2.30pm | Triskel Arts Centre |
 |
| Art. Drugs. Madness. Gifted artist, tormented
soul, egomaniacal bad-boy hyped up on crystal-meth. This is the snapshot,
circa summer 2001, as this raw, uncen-sored documentary tracks the
dramatic career of Canadian-born painter Attila Richard Lukacs. A
bold visionary whose life-size homoerotic renderings of neo-Nazi skinheads
fetch tens of thousands of dollars, Lukacs fails in his attempt to
crack New York City, the world's toughest art scene. He spirals into
depres-sion and drug addiction, alienates friends and art associates,
and pushes away his saintly parents. But the wired West Coast artist
manages to make it to the other side, retreating from his disastrous
NYC exploits to find detox, redemption, and creative renaissance in
Maui. See Documentary AÐZ for more details |
