"The Art of Failure: Chuck Connelly, Not for Sale" is the HBO documentary of the rise and fall of Chuck Connelly, a major up-and-coming talent in the 1980's New York art scene until he alienated every collector and gallery owner he worked with. This film follows the life of this brilliant yet enigmatic painter whose career swiftly faded, winning an Emmy at the 30th annual event in 2009 for "Outstanding Arts & Culture Programming."

Curator, gallerist and artist, Tony Carretta, will speak about his years representing Connelly's work following the documentary, how he came to be involved with the HBO release, as well as answer questions about the film.
