Item Description
This new-in-box DVD is part of the Maine Masters Project. An ongoing film series featuring some of Maine’s most distinguished artists sponsored by the Union of Maine Visual Artists. This copy was donated by the filmmaker Richard Kane.
In the summer of 2012, painter Jon Imber was diagnosed with a fatal degenerative disease, ALS. Imber’s Left Hand tells the story of this artist’s courageous and sometimes darkly humorous response to such a sentence. The film traces his adaptations, from switching from painting with his right hand to his left, and then to both hands as the condition progresses. Adversity only makes him more determined to paint, and paint he does: more than 100 portraits in a four-month span.
