RADFF 2025 - Resene Architecture and Design Film Festival 2025 - Movie screening: "Dale Frank: Nobody's Sweetie"

- Location: Wellington
DALE FRANK NOBODY'S SWEETIE. Director: Jenny Hicks
Duration: 107 mins
Year: 2024
A charming portrait of Dale Frank, Australia’s foremost contemporary and conceptual artist, eight weeks out from his 40th exhibition at Sydney’s Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery.
Throughout this candid biography, we learn what it means to be a professional artist. The stakes are high in the art world, and Frank spends as lavishly as he creates.
His paintings fund other colourful exploits: his ever-evolving rural estate where he lives amidst the largest private Natural History Collection in Australia, and the building of a 50-hectare exotic
arid-zone botanical garden in his backyard.
Museum's entry fee is not included in the ticket price, unless NZ citizens or residents.
