In honor of the first Francesca Woodman retrospective in the United States in more than two decades at the SFMOMA, The Roxie is proud to present the new, award-winning documentary, The Woodmans. “Francesca Woodman’s haunting B&W images, many of them nude self-portraits, now reside in the pantheon of great photography from the late 20th century. The daughter of artists, Francesca came to New York with the intention of setting the art world on fire. The Woodmans beautifully interweaves the young artist’s work (including experimental videos and diary passages) with interviews with the parents who have nurtured her professional reputation these past 30 years, while continuing to make art of their own in the face of tragedy. The film grapples with disturbing issues: parent- child competition and the toxic level of ambition that fuels the New York art scene”. Karen Cooper, Film Forum. The SFMOMA retrospective runs November 05, 2011 - February 20, 2012. Directed by C. Scott Willis. With Francesca Woodman, Betty Woodman, George Woodman, Charles Woodman, Sabina Mirri, Glenn Palmer-Smith, and Robert Kushner. USA. Digital. 1.85:1. 2010. Running Time: 82 mins.
