Kicking off our January series celebrating the great David Lynch with the intimate documentary chronicling his formative artistic journey!

Throughout January, 7th House, The Philosophical Research Society and Zebulon honor one of the great all time masters of cinema with their series Nightblooming Jasmine: A Celebration of David Lynch*.* Perhaps no artist has ever imbued such darkness with such mystery, wonder, beauty, and (so often) humor, a consumate creator whose journeys into the far reaches of imagination and consciousness have left an indelible and eternal mark on the world. This series features events at both PRS and Zebulon, kicking off with DAVID LYNCH: THE ART LIFE (2016) — an exploration Lynch's life, creativity, and formative artistic journey through all of its myriad, singular forms.

This intimate documentary looks at Lynch’s art, music, and early films, shining a light into the dark corners of his unique world and giving audiences a better understanding of the man and the artist. As he says, “I think every time you do something, like a painting or whatever, you go with ideas, and sometimes the past can conjure those ideas and color them. Even if they’re new ideas, the past colors them.” We’re invited in and given private views from Lynch’s compound and painting studio in the hills high above Hollywood, as he tells personal stories that unfold like scenes from his films. Strange characters come into focus only to fade again into the past, all leaving an indelible mark.

Dirs. Jon Nguyen, Rick Barnes, and Olivia Neergaard-Holm, 2016, 93 min, United States, Unrated, Digital.
