The Artist

A hilarious and heart-wrenching comedy exposing the absurdity of the fine art world as experienced by a young artist. Anna Haifisch's idiosyncratic, episodic comic chronicles the experiences of a young artist in his formative years, satirising the exclusive, ephemeral and frequently absurd world of fine art. Plagued by doubts and anxiety, the artist is confronted with constant setbacks punctuated by occasional, surprising glimpses of recognition. The Artist's sharp and self-deprecating observations resonate with the current generation.
