In Theaters: (Untitled) In Jonathan Parker's spry and spiky satire (Untitled) , the composer in question, Adrian, is played by Adam Goldberg as a black hole of self-fulfilling failure. When first spotted, he's riven with conflicting jealousy and disgust over the success of his brother Josh's (Eion Bailey) art. Josh sells tonally neutral paintings to hospitals and hotels looking for soothing,...

By Veronika Ferdman In Jonathan Parker’s (Untitled) , Adrian (Adam Goldberg) is a composer who puts on performance pieces that include kicking a bucket containing a chain and a shrieking saxophonist. His brother Josh (Eion Bailey), on the other hand, creates commercially viable paintings, while Madeleine (Marley Shelton) is a gallery owner (who both brothers have a thing for) specializing...

This teaser slogan for Jonathan Parker's (Untitled) is straight out of Tom Wolfe's "The Painted Word," to wit: "Not 'seeing is believing,' you ninny, but 'believing is seeing,' for Modern Art has become completely literary: the paintings and other works exist only to illustrate the text." I love that Corinth Fillns believes enough in people's interest in seeing a 61-year-old...

Those who missed the brief run of the Jonathan Parker-Catherine DiNapoli flick "Untitled" missed a thought-provoking work. While it shreds the pretentions of New York contemporary art and "serious" music, it also offers an explanation, of sorts, or how we got there. (The scariest part is that I mildly enjoyed some of the film's mildly stimulating David Lang background...

Art as Authority (Free subscription) | 11/19/2009
by Marilyn Mitchell (Untitled) is a new comedy that parodies contemporary art – especially the New York art scene. Jonathan Parker's view is at times painfully funny, at other times too realistic. It made me squirm with recognition. All contemporary...

"(Untitled)" isn't untitled - its title is a hint that it has something to do with contemporary art. The movie (directed by "Bartelby" helmer Jonathan Parker) stars Adam Goldberg and Eion Bailey as contrasting brothers. Goldberg's a poor and obscure composer of atonal music, the other guy a rich and successful painter of soulless hotel art.

"(Untitled)," Jonathan Parker's uneven satire about the New York art scene, is dominated by Marley Shelton's energized performance as an ambitious Chelsea gallery owner, a culture vulture we haven't seen before.

(Untitled) is a comedy for anyone who has ever stood before an abstract painting or sculpture or witnessed a performance of interpretive dance and music, and thought ``I could have done this.'' The question of what, exactly, constitutes art is at the center of director Jonathan Parker's satire of the New York gallery scene. The movie simultaneously mocks the vacuousness of the avant-garde...

The question of what, exactly, constitutes art is at the center of director Jonathan Parker's satire of the New York gallery scene. The movie simultaneously mocks the vacuousness of the avant-garde and celebrates the spirit with which the artists pursue their sometimes pointless, futile passions.

The script by Jonathan Parker and Catherine di Napoli, which Parker directed, is a tale of two brothers. Adrian, played by Adam Goldberg, devotes his sour life to music so forbiddingly atonal, he believes that harmony was "a capitalist plot to sell pianos." Brother Josh, played with a bland air of superiority by Eion Bailey, is the opposite: no standards, no artistic fire in the...
