A dead man is mistaken for an art object in the trailer for "Gallery Owners" with Natalie Portman and Jenna Ortega The funniest trailer you'll see this week. Director Cathy Yan, who directed DC's Birds of Prey and the Emmy-nominated episode of Descendants, brings a dark comedy about contemporary art. The plot is like this. Natalie Portman's protagonist, the owner of the Polina Polinsky gallery, was preparing to present a booth at the international Art Basel Miami fair, one of the most prestigious in the world. Before the opening, she had to arrange a private tour for the arrogant influencer Dalton Hardberry (Zach Galifianakis). He said nasty things, slipped, fell on the statue and died. They didn't have enough time to remove the body before the public showed up, and the critics, of course, are sure that it is a work of art. Now Polinski, along with his assistant Kiki Gorman (Jenna Ortega), intend to sell Dalton's body, as it turns out. The premise of the film is based on a well-known phenomenon, used both by the artists themselves and by those who try to mock contemporary art: everything that ends up in a museum or gallery is seen as art by default. Generally, however, jokes on this topic include forgotten sandwiches, fire evacuation plans and similar everyday things, but definitely not dead influencers; Here the authors raised the level of absurdity to the limit. The reader will ask if it has ever happened that the dead were shown in an exhibition of contemporary art. We answer: of course. Currently, Maurizio Catalan is showing the ashes of a friend who died in a fire extinguisher at the New National Gallery in Berlin. Read more here. And "The Gallery Owner" comes out on December 4th. We are waiting!
