Chris Teerink's superb film documents the work of artist Sol LeWitt (1928-2007), whose legacy lies not only in past accomplishments, but in the work he left for others to complete. Read full review

Teerink’s reserved, spare form mirrors LeWitt’s work, which gives it tremendous impact. Read full review

The on-camera absence of its subject and its overall indifference to matters of biography make Sol LeWitt a welcome departure from most documentaries about artists, as well as a fitting and serious tribute to his art. Read full review
