ART Peggy Guggenheim - Art Addict (UK-import)
Lisa Immordino Vreeland directs this documentary about iconic art collector Peggy Guggenheim. Using archive footage, interviews with Guggenheim and contributions from her admirers, the film chronicles the socialite's bohemian life that saw her move to Paris in 1921, where she mingled with many influential artists and writers, and open her first gallery in London in 1938 before moving to New York and opening the 'Art of This Century Gallery'. In addition to her famed art collection, Guggenheim was also known as a famous socialite who indulged in many marriages and affairs, which she also discusses in interviews with her biographer.
