James Castle: Portrait of an Artist
A 53-minute documentary film by Jeffrey Wolf, produced by the Foundation for Self-Taught American Artists, portrays James Castle's life and creative process, as told by family members, art historians, curators, artists, collectors, and members of the deaf community. A true case of triumph of the spirit, Castle's inspirational story is one of monumental achievement.
