synopsis: Canyon Cinema catalog 1992
"A film portrait cut to the tune of Conway Twitty's version of
'Mona Lisa.' Filmed in part at a 1964 show of Conner's artwork in
San Francisco, the film is also a witty statement about forces
that take the life out of art. Vivian Kurz, the subject of the
film, is entombed in a glass display case." --Judd Chesler
