Documentary filmmaker
Mary Reese took an intimate look at the life and times of cult painter,
publisher and cartoonist Robert Williams and came up with a fascinating film
“portrait” of the man and his art in the documentary titled Robert
Williams Mr. Bitchin' … due out on DVD from Cinema Libre on July 30.
Williams could draw
anything from an early age. The 1960s
car culture of Southern California fascinated him … so New Mexico high school
dropout came west and became something of a legend over the years with his
unique blend of cartoon-like illustrations and vibrant paintings … books, rock
album covers and a following of collectors eager to adorn their walls with his
“visions” are fully explored in this one-of-a-kind documentary.
Bonus features include an
art gallery of his works.
