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.

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.
