David Lynch - The Art Life (UITVERKOCHT)Jon Nguyen, Rick Barnes, Olivia Neergaard-Holm

Rond weinig hedendaagse regisseurs hangt een even groot aura als rond David Lynch, de man wiens familienaam een geheel eigen stijl ging definiëren. David Lynch – The Art Life is een intieme en uiterst creatieve reis doorheen het meesterlijk brein van David Lynch, wiens leven zelf als een bewegend excentrisch kunstwerk is. En natuurlijk doet deze documentaire dit in een geheel typerende ‘lynchiaanse’ stijl.

Few contemporary directors have such a great aura around their work as does David Lynch, the man whose name has defined his own style. David Lynch - The Art Life is an intimate and highly creative journey through the masterful mind of David Lynch, whose life itself is like a moving eccentric artwork. And of course, this documentary tells his life story in a totally typical 'Lynchian' style. Whether art imitates life, or life in fact art, is irrelevant in the case of the eccentric director David Lynch, for whom art equals life. Lynch's creative products are undoubtedly surrealistic, they originate from a specific personal background and philosophy. Director Jon Nguyen is looking for that certain 'something' of David Lynch and where it comes from. An intimate look at the life of the creative brain behind inter alia Eraserhead, Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks. Nguyen and his team have been following Lynch's creative footsteps before and already created Lynch, a documentary about the film Inland Empire (2007). This time however, Nguyen opts for a focus on the extraordinary and unique connection between Lynch's life and art, thus making this film more intimate than any other interview with Lynch ever. Bathed in style Lynch is portrayed in the typical strange, unusual, slightly unsettling atmosphere he is known and celebrated for himself. A perfect tribute to the unique genius that is David Lynch, who has already passed the age of 70.
