Controversial and provocative artist Larry Rivers ( 1923-2002 ) was recently the subject of a Vanity Fair profile, “Crimes of the Art”, and was on the front page of the NY Times twice because of the ongoing controversy with his two grown daughters who claim he emotionally damaged them by painting and photographing them in naked sexual poses during their younger years.
Larry Rivers was an artist willing to sacrifice conventional artistic vision by pushing all the sexual harassment boundaries and breaking down all the gender barriers, at the expense of personal, family, and moral stability.

Larry Rivers was an artist willing to sacrifice conventional artistic vision by pushing all the sexual harassment boundaries and breaking down all the gender barriers, at the expense of personal, family, and moral stability.
Larry didn’t care about business of the art market. Unlike other artists in his 1960’s generation who had a marketable brand of either drips, squares, polka dots, silk screens or American flags, Larry was in pursuit of what few, if any, in his generation of artists were willing to create - a uniquely personal and honest look at his sexualized world through his art. Nothing else mattered!
This is a story of art and sex, and the fine line between artistic expression and pornography, told through most of the artists who knew Rivers, art critics, historians, and writers, and close friends and family. Also through his own words and films. He shot over 600 hours worth of 16mm home m
