Alexis Krasilovsky
Films:
Andy Warhol in End of the Art World
"With ferocious wit, Ms. Krasilovsky sends up New York's art scene in End of the Art World. In essence, Ms. Krasilovsky uses the sounds and images of the usual art documentary to create her own work of art."
- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Jasper Johns in End of the Art World
"The interviews with the individual artists vary from a gala opening with Warhol's superstars at the Whitney Museum ...to the creation of actual art work int he studios of Rauschenberg and Snow."
— Millenium
Robert Rauschenberg in End of the Art World
"With a quality of humor possible only with depth of understanding, Alexis Krasilovsky presents a catalogue of interviews with modern artists in which the shooting style as well as the aural material's format rehearses the personal style, the aesthetics, and the assumption of each artist about the nature of his art."
— Artforum
The Yale Film Archive has been awarded a National Film Preservation Award to preserve "End of the Art World," the film that Alexis Krasilovsky made about the New York art world back in 1971, starring Andy Warhol, Bob Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtentein, Jo Baer and Michael Snow.
The premiere of the restored version will take place at Yale at 7 PM on March 7, 2024 as a double-bill with Vera Chytilova's surrealist comedy/drama "Daisies" and a Q&A with Alexis, at the Humanities Quadrangle (the old Hall of Graduate Studies), 320 York Street, New Haven, Connecticut. The public is welcome.
(Alexis Krasilovsky has fictionalized the entire process of making "End of the Art World" in the novel, "A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Woman," about a young woman determined to become a filmmaker despite the obstacles.)
