High Art resonates simultaneously as a timeless mediation on love, loss, and art as a trenchant drama.”—Aviva Dove-Viebahn, Ms. Magazine

Syd (Radha Mitchell), a low-level editor at a photography magazine eager to establish herself, discovers her neighbor is the once-celebrated downtown photographer Lucy Berliner (Ally Sheedy). Although Syd lives with her boyfriend (Gabriel Mann), she is drawn to Lucy, who has a volatile relationship with her heroin-addicted girlfriend, Greta (Patricia Clarkson).

As Syd starts sleeping with Lucy, she is pulled into a glamorous but dangerous art-world scene, full of drugs and unexpected pleasures. 1998, U.S., 4K DCP, 102 minutes. Rated R.

Digitally restored by the Academy Film Archive and UCLA Film & Television archive in conjunction with the Sundance Institute from the 35mm original picture negative and DC-88 tapes.
