One of the biggest names in the East Village art scene of the '80s, "business artist" Mark Kostabi gleefully made a fortune signing and selling artworks painted by a revolving stable of hired hands. This punk-fueled docu-comedy looks at Kostabi's ultimately self-destructive skewering of the celebrity art world and his current obsession with getting back on top. Screening at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival. For more information and tickets, visit www.tribecafilm.com/festival.

  • @nobodady1 hey thanks but i meant the one at 0:33:)

  • @stoli288 Dancing in Your Head by Ornette Coleman

  • aaaah whats that song in the beginning??

  • Unique.

  • Just saw it and thought it was fantastic. Hope it gets a decent distribution.

  • He is at least as good as Koons, Hirst and Murakami. Same idea. I remember seeing a Kostabi in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Now they have a Hirst. How someone gets famous is only a problem for a short while. Its the fame that seems to matter, and once its endorsed, lingers far longer than it should.

  • proud to say this is my uncles movie :) i can't wait to see it at STARZ next week

  • seen yesterday at the Rome Film Festival ... great movie. great mark.

  • Great Film. Loved It! Highly recommended for anyone who is looking for a little insight into the "fine art of dealing"...
