Artists in Residence

*MICHIGAN PREMIERE*

Artists in Residence

Purchasing a house together in 1950s NYC, three female artists–Lois Dodd, Eleanor Magid and Louise Kruger–defied societal norms and prioritized their art over traditional roles as wives and mothers. Through interviews with the women, now in their 90s, as well as their grown children, the film explores the emotional complexities of being an artist and a parent. A heartfelt celebration of independence, creativity, and the enduring strength of women artists.
