Synopsis

"Who Gets to Call It Art?" documents the downtown New York pop art scene in the 1960s, as seen through the eyes of legendary Metropolitan Museum of Art Curator Henry Geldzahler. Featuring some of the artists who created the first truly American art style - Frank Stella, James Rosenquist, Larry Poons, David Hockney, Mark Di Suvero and others - the film is a wild ride through a politically brash and outrageous era.
