Guggenheim Museum 1071 Fifth Avenue at East 88th Street 8:30pm • Levy Gorvy Gallery 909 Madison Avenue at East 73'd Street RSVP to In 1964, while on a short trip to Paris, the American writer and art-lover James Lord is asked by his friend, the world-renowned artist Alberto Giacometti, to sit for a portrait. The process, Giacometti assures Lord, will take only a few days. Flattered and intrigued, Lord agrees. So begins not only the story of a touching and offbeat friendship, but, seen through the eyes of Lord, a uniquely revealing insight into the beauty, frustration, profundity and, at times, downright chaos of the artistic process. FINAL PORTRAIT is a bewitching portrait of a genius, and of a friendship between two men who are utterly different, yet increasingly bonded through a single, ever-evolving act of creativity. It is a film which shines a light on the artistic process itself, by turns exhilarating, exasperating and bewildering, questioning whether the gift of a great artist is a blessing or a curse. sil.s . . _flits. ; l, )b Ji Ain.. rear oswor• ItAIIM9741.11tat a., Gt1 E ••••••-• SO..rvrn.rtan “" lar %wigwams:aim= owasantssawsue EFTA00306934
