Together with our friends at Cinema Nova Film, we are delighted to bring you the opportunity to see the award-winning feature film Acute Misfortune and enjoy a conversation between the film’s co-writers: director Thomas M. Wright and Erik Jensen, author of the acclaimed biography of artist Adam Cullen upon which the film is based.
When 19-year-old journalist and enfant terrible Erik Jensen (founding editor of The Saturday Paper) was invited by Australian painter Adam Cullen to write his biography, Jensen jumped at the chance. Despite a turbulent relationship, the two formed a unique bond that lasted until Cullen’s death in 2012 aged just 46.
Bookings for this event are essential and can be made at the Cinema Nova website.
