‘THIS IS IRA RICHER’ – DIRECTED & EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY RICK KNIEF<\/p>\n

.. is a sweet toned, quirky, honest, fast paced, and precisely edited short, (about 6 minutes), documentary film on 1980’s NY artist IRA RICHER.<\/p>\n

it was the winner \/ BEST SHORT DOC at last year’s (NOV 2024) BOWERY FILM FESTIVAL here in NYC & watch out for it \/ it’s probably coming through a film festival near you, soon enough.<\/p>\n

while we were talking about the old days, Ira told me a brief little story that encapsulates those times perfectly. He was showing with ANNINA NOSEI, at the same time as Basquiat & it seems Annina owed him some money, and wanted to pay Ira with a BASQUIAT or a WARHOL, but Ira insisted on cash – he had bills to pay !!
\nTalk about FAST FORWARD — REGRETS !!<\/p>\n

That’s the way it was, and how fast things . . progresssed.<\/p>\n

casual 80’s art scene friends, Ira and I meanwhile bonded on our admiration for, and collecting of.. DAN ASHER’S work. Now we wonder, what the hell happened ?!! 40 years later, fizzle is not the word for it, and we both are mighty disappointed & mystified, as we considered DAN the best of the pack. you just never know. Dan was quite the character, sadly for us his small drawings & iceberg photographs now go for JUST about what it costs to store, and frame them. oh well, he’s still<\/em> a great artist – just no one has been able to build his market, . . . . yet !! <\/p>\n
