If you’ve ever been curious about the mind and sensibility responsible for LACMA artworks such as Urban Light, the collection of functioning lampposts that draw visitors from around to the world to Wilshire Boulevard, and to the Metropolis II installation, this documentary from directors Richard Dewey and Timothy Marrinan is just the film to offer some answers about artist Chris Burden. And we get insight into Burden’s history and perspective from an intriguing cross-section of talents and thinkers that includes Marina Abramović, Ed Moses, Barbara T. Smith, Ed Ruscha, Christopher Knight, Larry Gogosian and, of course, the titular subject himself.
