The Other Brother

One is an art world insider; one lived alone in a world of art. The Other Brother illuminates the extraordinary lives of Jesse and Tom Flowers. Jesse, solitary and troubled who found solace in little else but his art; Tom, successful artist and professor. Jesse's work feels crowded, humorous and primordial; Tom's feels open and contemporary. By pairing their artwork we see an artistic dialog that transcends decades of estrangement. We sense that Tom, looking through family photographs and Jesse's artwork, gets to know his brother in a way he never knew him in life. We witness so many layers of Jesse's life in such an artful and profound way that ultimately we feel the an is in the room with us, flesh and blood.
