In celebration of Preservation month, the Chester County Historic Preservation Network presents the film WYETH at the Colonial Theatre.

WYETH is a documentary film telling the story of Andrew Wyeth, one of America’s most popular, but least understood, artists. While his exhibitions routinely broke attendance records, art world critics continually assaulted his work. Through unprecedented access to Wyeth family members, archival materials, and his work, WYETH presents the most complete portrait of the artist ever - bearing witness to a legacy just at the moment it is evolving. The film brilliantly depicts how the historical and natural settings of the Brandywine Valley inspired his art, and reveal the deeper meanings behind his work.

The producer and director of the film will be at the screening for a discussion with Q&A following this full length version of the film.
