This film is a must-see for this year’s Hot Docs. For over 30 years, Wayne White has made a mark on the creative world. As a designer, painter, puppeteer, sculptor, and musician, White created images and ideas that are an integral part of the pop culture glossary. Part biography, part live performance, Beauty Is Embarrassing tells the creative story of a one-of-a-kind visual artist and raconteur. The film, like White, embraces the ragged edges and messy contradictions of life, art, and family with rabid humor and honesty. At its core, Beauty Is Embarrassing shows what it takes for one uniquely talented, profanely hilarious, and utterly uncompromising artist to make it in America.
