John Waters, art connoisseur

by



Look out, Baltimore: Local legend John Waters, maker of films that celebrate outsiders, is now an art world insider, with pieces from his quirky and provocative art collection on display at the Baltimore Museum of Art. Correspondent Rita Braver talks with Waters, and with curator Leila Grothe, about the essence of a collection from the so-called “Pope of Trash.”

  2. He's an original and there will never be another like him. Great personality, singular vision and always full of joy. If you hate him….. it would probably make him smile and have a witty line about it. What a great way to live your life.

  6. Rita Braver, a wonderful journalist, is not an artist and so asks the typical, painfully simplistic kinds of questions one would expect. It would be meaningful if Waters could present the works in his collection as more than crazy and wacky. I am positive that sees them as more than just goofball crap, but by not acknowledging this he does a disservice to the various artists and their work. I'm thinking especially of the Tuttle piece shown at the beginning of the segment. A knockout piece by a incredibly important artist is reduced to a bad, one-line joke — and so what is the general supposed to public think with Waters denigrating it??

  12. With respect, many would conclude his father was correct … it’s ‘CRAZY’ an underwhelming collection of stuff. He should take a long rest in the Rest Room.
    One good thing, at least John’s tattooed moustache shows a little perspective and some linear drawing skill 🤦‍♂️

  31. My God I love this man. I have all his books. I wish he would do one more movie before he goes. I can't imagine what he would come up with after the life he's had.
