Synopsis
Art gallery owner David Green takes a friend on a tour of his latest exhibition, a collection of contemporary nudes painted on commission by New York artists. He compares each painting with the work of the masters who influenced the artist. At the same time, the camera travels back to Green's first contact with each artist at a Greenwich Village coffeehouse, tracing the creation of the painting. Green makes contact with the artist, who hires a model, and poses her in his studio. The coffeehouse artists employ some unexpected techniques. One artist uses his hair as a brush. Another spatters his colors on canvas spread on the floor and tramps the paint with his feet. A painter who wants to cover his model with paint and smear her body against his canvas has trouble finding a woman who will work for him. One model is frightened away by an artist who throws darts at paint-filled balloons stuck to a canvas-covered wall.
