"Thanks to the Boris Lurie Art Foundation and its director Gertrude Stein – Boris's gallerist and closest friend – I am able, twenty years after producing the short movie in Manhattan, to present my hour-long film THE ART OF BORIS LURIE. A film which forms a dialogue with the 2016 retrospective at the Jewish Museum Berlin (JMB) but is characterized by my encounters with Boris Lurie and his art."

“Impressionism is female”: we understand this when we consider Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Eva Gonzalès and Marie Bracquemond, four outstanding artists who developed distinct Impressionist subjects and manners of painting. All four knew each other, were regulars in the contemporary artist circles of Paris and, above all, shared a common fate: they were talented women in a world ruled by men. The documentary by Rudij Bergmann, an expert on impressionalism, which was filmed in France and the United States tells the story of the four women, placing their works at the centre of reflection on aesthetic, historical but also social matters. Set against the backdrop of Paris in the late 19th century, it reveals a new dimension of this fascinating and revolutionary period of art.
