CGiii Comment
An investigation of Detroit born Edward Brezinski, charismatic Lower East Side painter on the fringe of success, who thwarted his career with antics that roiled NYC's art elite. Our film reveals a unique snapshot of the 1980's art explosion while we unearth the truth of Brezinski's mysterious death in the Cote d'Azur. Make Me Famous is an intimate look at the art world's attitude towards success and failure, fame and fortune, notoriety and erasure. Filmed in NYC, Detroit, San Francisco, Ireland, Berlin and France.
