Visible Silence: Marsden Hartley, Painter and Poet

2008· 65 min· Documentary

Features 43 of Hartley's paintings and drawings as well as many photographs from his early youth to his final years. Drawing heavily from Hartley's little-known poetical works, this documentary, a deeply personal statement by Michael Maglaras, captures the essence of Hartley -- long considered one of the most important American painters of the first half of the 20th century. Visible Silence is the first documentary ever made about this Maine-born painter.

Director: Michael Maglaras
