ABOUT

This documentary is about the visual artist Ad Merx. The original documentary is 45 minutes. Art is my passion, not only the creation but also to document other artists while they tell their story. Their reasons, passion or urge is what I want to capture. It’s well known that artists do not always tell you what you want to hear, but mostly what they want to ‘sell’. There is a logic in it, because in a way they tell their audience what they think art is all about or the romantics of being an artist. And that is what people like. But that’s not what I’m aiming for. I try to dig deeper because I think in the end the artist is the only one who can tell us what he has created.
