Drawing out the Demons

1 x 78 / 1 x 48
Broadcaster:  TVO,  Bravo

Nearly 5 years in the making, and incorporating footage spanning 19 years, one can say with unusual literalness that Drawing out the Demons is about an artist’s journey.  For most of the 1990’s Attila worked in Berlin, where he lived a wild lifestyle amongst Berlin’s gay underground. Youthful, handsome, and with a clear sense of purpose, he followed his career to where it could grow.

In one blazing stroke, Attila Richard Lukacs established “bad-boy” celebrity at the highest levels of the international art world. After living and painting successfully for 10 years in Berlin, it was time to take on the New York art scene — New York however, had other ideas. By unearthing Attila’s past and reflecting on the events leading to his last days in the Big ‘rotten’ Apple, director David Vaisbord takes us on a journey to the dark side where ‘Drawing Out the Demons’ is a matter of life and death.
