Deutsch
Regisseur Schnabel zeichnet ein Portrait seines früh verstorbenen Freundes, dem ersten afro-amerikanischen Pop Art Künstler Jean Michel Basquiat. Neben dem Leben des Künstlers steht die eigenwillige New Yorker Kunstszene der beginnenden 80er Jahre im Mittelpunkt der Biographie. David Bowie spielt Andy Warhol.

svenska
Jean-Michel Basquiat slår igenom som graffitimålare vid 19-års ålder. Han får Andy Warhol som sin beskyddare och blir en av världens mest framgångsrika, kontroversiella och glamorösa konstnärer. Basquiat målar utifrån sina känslor och drömmer om att stabilisera förhållandet till sin flickvän. Han plågas dock av självdestruktivitet och tror egentligen inte på måleriet som sin livsform.

Português
Em 1981, Jean-Michel Basquiat passou de um desconhecido pintor de graffiti de 19 anos, que vivia nas ruas de Nova Iorque, a um dos artistas mais controversos e famosos do mundo, pelas mãos de Andy Warhol. As suas exposições tornaram-se o acontecimento artístico da temporada e os seus quadros foram adquiridos pelos maiores coleccionadores e museus. Em Andy Wharol, Basquiat encontra alguém que também está ali não pelo sucesso ou dinheiro, mas pela cumplicidade com a arte. A amizade de ambos é interrompida pela morte de Warhol.

Español
Biografía de Jean-Michel Basquiat, pintor vanguardista que pasó de ser un joven desconocido que pintaba graffitis en Brooklyn a convertirse en uno de los más controvertidos y famosos de la pintura contemporánea mundial a comienzos de los años ochenta, descubierto por Andy Warhol. Sus exposiciones se convirtireron en un acontecimiento de la escena artística neoyorquina de la época, y sus cuadros fueron adquiridos por importantes museos y coleccionistas privados, mientras él se enfrentaba a una espectacular y fulgurante fama que le sumergió en el mundo de las drogas -adicto a la heroína, el artista murió de una sobredosis a los 27 años de edad-.

Český
V roce 1981 se neznámý 19letý graffiti writer Jean-Michel Basquiat velmi rychle stal nejúspěšnějším, nejrozporuplnějším a nejfascinujícnějším umělcem světa. Jeho výstavy byly očekávané jako velké události newyorské sezóny a jeho malby kupovali nejvlivnější sběratelé a muzea. Každá stránka jeho života se stala tématem pro média. Zemřel v roce 1988, ve věku 27 let. Noviny The New York Times ho nazvali „nejbližším ekvivalentem Jamese Deana ve světě umění“. Navzdory svému úspěchu sužovala tohoto nepokojného mladého talentovaného umělce samota, sebedestrukce a přesvědčení, že lidé ho ve skutečnosti nepřijali takového, jakým byl. Byl prvním umělcem černé pleti, kterému se podařilo skutečně uspět v uměleckém světě bělochů. Jeho předčasná smrt dokazuje, že byl stejně obětí i fenomenálním úspěchem.

Italiano
Jean-Michel Basquiat è un giovane artista di strada newyorkese. L’incontro con Andy Warhol lo proietta repentinamente nel sofisticato milieu delle gallerie d’arte di Soho; ma questo ambiente cinico e opportunista, non fa per Jean-Michel, che nonostante l’amore di Gina, la sua ragazza, cade preda di uno stato depressivo che si aggraverà con la scomparsa di Warhol e lo porterà - a soli 27 anni - a un’ultima, fatale overdose di eroina.

Français
Hommage à Basquiat, premier artiste noir a avoir vraiment réussi dans le puissant monde des arts, disparu en 1988 à l'âge de vingt-sept ans, à travers l’évocation de sa vie et de son oeuvre.

Magyar
1981-ben egy addig ismeretlen, húszéves graffiti-firkász vált a New York-i művészvilág és média legvitatottabb témájává: Jean-Michel Basquiat különleges képei egyik pillanatról a másikra gyűjtők és múzeumok legkeresettebb darabjai lettek. A film mottója a következő lehetne: "A betondzsungelben felkel a Nap..." Tehetsége és különcsége emelte fel a csillagokig, de a csillagok mögött meg kellett ismernie a legsötétebb éjszakát is.

български език
Жан-Мишел Баскиа е пример за това как едно момче от гетото без никакво образование се превръща в емблематична личност за постмодерното изкуство. Въпреки множеството си пороци, Баскиа е художник със собствено виждане за ситуацията, която го заобикаля и има свой личен почерк в историята на съвременното изкуство.

Pусский
История короткой, но насыщенной драматическими событиями жизни негритянского художника, представителя манхэттенской богемы, Жана-Мишеля Баския на фоне артистической жизни Нью-Йорка. Его полотна, так же, как образ жизни, (он не знал, что делать с обрушившийся на него славой), бесчисленные романы, страсть к наркотикам, — все это привело к саморазрушению — вызвали в 80-е годы постоянный ажиотаж в прессе.

Dansk
Jean Michel Basquiat er en ludfattig, ung graffiti-maler. Hans "hjem" er en papkasse i Central Park. Men så bliver han opdaget af miljøet omkring "guden" Andy Warhol. Succes'en er øjeblikkelig og overvældende. Penge, damer og drugs – et liv der for Basquiat leder direkte mod katastrofen...

한국어/조선말
낙서주의 화가로 일컬어지는 바스키아의 불꽃 같은 생애를 담았다. 27살로 마감한 그의 생애를 담은 이는 신표현주의를 대표하는 화가 줄리앙 슈나벨 감독. 슈나벨의 데뷔작이다. 영화 곳곳에는 슈나벨 감독의 애정이 진하게 배어 있다. 영화를 보는 것이라기보다는 한장한장의 회화를 이어가는 듯한 착각을 일으킬 정도다.피카소의 [게르니카]를 응시한 채 어머니의 손을 부여잡은 한 소년을 보여주며 영화는 시작된다. 피카소의 작품을 보며 눈물을 흘리던 소년은 어느새 성인이 되어 뉴욕의 거리에서 벽에 그림을 그리며 화가를 꿈꾸는 청년으로 바뀐다. 마약을 대가로 그려준 그림 한장이 미술평론가 르네 리카드의 눈에 들면서 바스키아는 스타 화가로의 길을 다져나간다. 그러나 스타가 된 그의 곁에는 당대 최고의 화가이자 아방가르드였던 앤디 워홀만이 쓸쓸히 자리를 지켜 줄 뿐이다. 그마저 세상을 떠나자 마약에 묻혀 살다가 마침내 생을 마감한다.앤디 워홀 역을 영국의 명뮤지션 데이비드 보위가 맡았다는 사실은 또 하나의 흥밋거리.

Nederlands
Na zijn ontdekking wordt de jonge graffiti-kunstenaar Jean Michel Basquiat direct bestempeld als een van de grootste talenten van de New Yorkse kunst-scene. Hij treedt toe tot de kleine kring van vertrouwelingen rond Andy Warhol. Zijn schilderijen vinden grif aftrek bij belangrijke musea en kunstverzamelaars, en de media storten zich vol overgave op de eerste zwarte kunstenaar die succes heeft in de voornamelijk door blanken gedomineerde kunstwereld. Maar terwijl zijn ster blijft rijzen, buigt Basquiat steeds verder onder het juk van zijn eigen succes. Zijn leven krijgt een fatale wending als hij zijn uitvlucht zoekt in het gebruik van alcohol en drugs.

普通话
Basquiat是一个早逝的天才,而该电影由同样是纽约的画家Julian Schnabel 制作导演,比陈逸飞幸运,Schnabel以成名画家之身份导演的首部电影颇受好评。也许是他对主角的深度了解。

Lifeline: Clyfford Still summary, synopsis, reviews
Lifeline: Clyfford StillDocumentary2019

Jackson Pollock said, “he makes the rest of us look academic,” Mark Rothko acknowledged him as a “myth-maker” and Clement Greenberg called him “a highly influential maverick and an independent genius.” Clyfford Still, one of the strongest, most original contributors to abstract expressionism, walked away from the commercial art world at the height of his career. Extremely disciplined, principled, and prolific, Still left behind a treasure trove of works like no other major artist in history. With a wonderful mosaic of archival material, found footage and audio recorded by the artist himself, Lifeline paints a picture of a modern icon, his uncompromising creative journey and the price of independence. Featuring the painter’s surviving daughters, painters Mark Bradford, Julie Mehretu, Julian Schnabel, SFMOMA director Neal Benezra, Clyfford Still museum director Dean Sobel, award winning architect Brad Cloepfil, Colorado governor John Hickenlooper, art historian David Anfam, art collector Jeffrey Loria, museum director James Demetrion, art critic Jerry Saltz, and writer Tom Healy.
