The Credeaux Canvas

By Keith Bunin

Directed by Kate Buckley

A Wisconsin Premiere. Can art capture the mysteries of the human soul? Keith Bunin explores this age-old question with a bittersweet story about three young friends struggling to make ends meet in the East Village. Jamie convinces his roommate Winston, who has a remarkable talent for copying great artists, to forge a work in the style of a little-known French master, Credeaux. If Winston, using Jamie's girlfriend Amelia as the model, can create a Credeaux nude, the group's days of washing dishes in the bathtub will end. As their plan unfolds, more than the mysteries of the body are revealed.
