New Beecroft Documentary Is "A Profile with a Twist"

Last year was a tough one for artist Vanessa Beecroft, what with that whole borrowing of Anthon Beeke‘s naked alphabet and subsequently having her VBLV book pulled from stores worldwide. This year isn’t shaping up to be a whole lot better. The Art Star and the Sudanese Twins, a documentary by Pietra Brettkelly that opened on Friday at the Sundance Film Festival is apparently rather damning to Beecroft, who the film follows over 16 months and three continents as she tries to adopt infant twins from Sudan.
