Free Tickets Available to the World Premiere of The Art of Failure: Chuck Connelly Not For Sale!!

Interview with Chuck Connelly

Young, handsome, and talented, painter Chuck Connelly seemed destined for the same art-world stardom as his 1980s gallery-mates Julian Schnabel and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Fan Martin Scorsese even used Connelly’s canvases (and close-ups of his furiously painting hands) to represent the work of Life Lesson’s tortured artist as played by Nick Nolte.

In an early expression of the troubles ahead, Connelly publicly dissed the movie, and soon, it was all downhill as Connelly’s career became mired in ego and alcoholism. While everything fell apart, Connelly continued to produce hundreds of vibrant paintings—and proclaim his genius.
