Join us for Man From Pretentia (101 min). MAN FROM PRETENTIA offers an intimate glimpse into the life of Paul Bridgewater, a legendary figure in the New York art world. Known for his pivotal role in discovering and supporting artists during the vibrant '80s East Village Art Movement. Bridgewater embarks on a Quixotic quest in 2013 to launch a new gallery, "Smart Clothes," dedicated to emerging art. The film pays tribute to Bridgewater's legacy, depicting the careful relocation of his art collection and his generous donations to museums. Bridgewater's story serves as a testament to a life well-lived, marked by passion, resilience, and a profound love for the arts.
