Synopsis

Sculptor-filmmaker Matthew Barney, best known for his five-part "visual opera" (the "Cremaster" series), is arguably the most famous living experimental filmmaker still working. His sculptures, drawings and installations, which are closely related to his film oeuvre, sell for big money through the Barbara Gladstone gallery in Gotham, while the artist has a certain celebrity profile due to his good looks, manifest talent and marriage to Icelandic pop star Bjork, who co-stars in his film "Drawing Restraint 9" and appears here talking about her husband's work.
