"The Wesley Willis Experience" A Documentary by Darren Leis & Matt Marshall



"The Wesley Willis Experience" -
A Documentary by Darren Leis & Matt Marshall

"This documentary was shot over a few year period in the late 1990's and completed in 2001. Darren Leis and Matt Marshall toured around California and the Northwest with Wesley and some fellow musicians. This documentary short was made as a teaser to what would be a full length documentary.

Their discoverer came upon them in an attic in the ’90s in Germany and held onto them until now. Priced at $1,260 each, the drawings typically focus on one or two female figures, often nude, in poses that suggest magazine spreads, sometimes tending to fashion, sometimes to the more prurient variety. The drawings offer at once the shock that so much Outsider art contains—of a previously inaccessible worldview—and another instance of the discoveries that Independent is known for."
