The Price of Everything, Nathaniel Kahn (2018)

Pricing works of art… Maybe something we often question. Is this work worth that much, or does it deserve more money? Apart from paint and various materials, what adds value to a work of art? An immersive documentary, in which all these inquiries are made, that offers a perspective on art from the “industry”.

Exit Through the Gift Shop, Banksy (2010)

If you have never heard of Banksy, I suggest you take a look at his work on the Internet. He is an anonymous graffiti artist… Not only does he fill the streets with art, his recently self-destructing painting was auctioned for a very high amount. After the sale took place, the painting destroyed itself and shocked everyone. This documentary was prepared by Banksy; It offers a glimpse of graffiti art from the streets.

The Cool School, Morgan Neville (2008)

How does a new art movement emerge and begin to influence people? The documentary tells about the spread and rise of the new art movement that a group of artists started in Los Angeles.
