How to Draw a Bunny

How to Draw a Bunny A Ray Johnson Portrait, is a collagestyle featurelength documentary about the Detroitborn pop and performance artist Ray Johnson. Filmmakers John Walter and Andrew L. Moore delve into the mysterious life and death of Johnson, an artist whose world was made up of amazing coincidences, serendipities and karmic gags, according to Michael Kimmelman of The New York Times. After Johnsons suicide, Moore and Walter conducted interviews with artists including Christo, Chuck Close, Roy Lichtenstein, Judith Malina, and James Rosenquist. In addition, they gathered photographs, works of art, and home movies, which were edited into a fastpaced narrative exploring the artists life. The filmmakers couldnt have chosen a more elusive subject for a movie their success in evoking Johnson, and in documenting his world, is a triumph of sympathy over psychology, memory over historicism, wrote Stuart Klawans for The Nation. The film premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize. The film also won the Grand Prix du Public 2002 at the Rencontres Internationales de Cinema in Paris and was nominated for a 2003 Independent Spirit Award and listed in New York Magazines Top Ten of 2004.
