PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT to DVD on October 25th

 PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT presents a feature-length chronicle about the life of Peggy Guggenheim, the collector, gallerist and Guggenheim family heiress who became a leading figure in the modern art movement as she assembled one of the world’s great troves of modern art and releases on DVD on October 25, 2016 from Music Box Home Entertainment.

The second feature directed by Lisa Immordino Vreeland (Diana Vreeland: The Eye has to Travel), PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT reveals Guggenheim to be a remarkably vibrant character who was not only ahead of her time but helped to define it. As she moved through the cultural upheaval of the 20th century, she collected not only art, but artists. Her colorful personal history included trysts, affairs and marriages with such figures as Samuel Beckett, Max Ernst, Jackson Pollock, Marcel Duchamp as well as many others. While also fighting through personal tragedy, she maintained her vision to build one of the most important collections of modern art, which is today enshrined in her famous Venetian palazzo. Ultimately, PEGGY GUGGENHEIM: ART ADDICT gives stunning insight into modern art and its most illustrious figures, while celebrating the formidable woman who brought them to fame.
