Yet over all it's an extremely impressive piece of work that is sure to make you curious to learn more about some of the individuals whose colorful canvases nearly jump off the screen.
Moreover, it inspires you to think about the effort, sleuthing and passion that exists outside the frames as curators like Savitsky pu
t their lives on the line in the pursuit to showcase art that breaks down barriers and gives a voice to all regardless of language barrier, life/death, or geographic location by reminding us that creative freedom must be celebrated at all costs.
The Desert of Forbidden Art opened in limited release to very good reviews. G. Allen Johnson wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle, "...does an admirable job of telling the stories of the obsessive Savitsky and other important Soviet artists... packed with art, as well as interviews with art critics, journalists

The documentary "The Art of the Steal'' drew some attention recently for highlighting a controversial push to relocate the Barnes Foundation's privately held Impressionist collection from the Philadelphia suburbs to an ostensibly more accessible downtown location. You wonder how the players in
that little saga might have felt about the curating efforts of Igor Savitsky, an art aficionado in the remote Soviet republic of Uzbekistan who, during the 1960s and '70s, obsessively gathered more than 40,000 pieces in a self-created museum. The goal: to protect these frequently disintegrating paintings and graphics from intolerant party bureaucrats in Moscow, some 1,700 miles away.
In "The Desert of Forbidden Art,'' documentarians Amanda Pope and Tchavdar Georgiev offer some background on the late Savitsky, a painter who initially collected ethnic folk art quashed by the Stalin regime. They offer
a bit less background than they might on the under-funded museum, where staffers still lay out water trays as makeshift humidifiers to protect pieces from the region's blistering heat.
