Rembrandt Lives in New Jersey Debuts at the 2023 New Jersey Film Festival on Friday, February 10!

The cleverly titled documentary, Rembrandt Lives in New Jersey, by Kasey Child, presents the artwork and life of an 80+ year-old New Jersey native “etcher” and printmaker, Helen Frank, while paying tribute to 17th century Dutch printmaker, Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn. We see a snippet of Helen Frank on NJN News in 2010, teaching printing to a group of adults. “What I’m doing is what Rembrandt did. It doesn’t look the same, but it's the same history. I’m holding hands with all the people who have gone before me and fallen in love with this medium,” she says. Although Frank employs the same art techniques as Rembrandt, throughout the documentary Frank illustrates (no pun intended) to viewers that her artwork beautifully reflects her own unique experiences and style.
