Arteholic
Arteholic is an odyssey through Europe's greatest modern art collections led by actor and living art piece Udo Kier. As Kier guides us through Europe's galleries, he comes across some of the most eminent artists, curators, and filmmakers alive today, whilst continually saluting those who have passed. Kier ruminates on the friends he has lost along the way, including Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Sigmar Polke.
More than an homage to the past greats, this film is a celebration of art as a whole and in its purest form.
A love letter to art, Arteholic features the "Who's Who" of contemporary figures in modern art, such as artists Rosemarie Trockel, Lars von Trier, and Jonathan Meese, as well as museum curators like Max Hollein and Udo Kittelmann, each of whom reveal the personal significance they find in art and its importance in a world that, at times, seems devoid of beauty and hope.
