Cinematique - hosted by the Filmmagineers & SCENEPR, May 14th May 14, 2008

The Filmmagineers & SCENEPR invite you to come celebrate NY Art & Cinema at this fabulous party & screening of "Basquiat".

Join us Wednesday, May 14th at 7PM for the Manhattan premiere party of CINEMATIQUE: REMIX YOUR NETWORKING EXPERIENCE - screening the acclaimed art-film BASQUIAT, followed by CINEMATIQUE after party at White Rabbit.

BASQUIAT is a unique film that tells the story of the meteoric rise of youthful artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Starting out as a street artist, living in Thompkins Square Park in a cardboard box, Jean-Michel is "discovered" by Andy Warhol's art world and becomes a star. But success has a high price, and Basquiat pays with friendship, love, and eventually, his life. Directed by Julien Schnabel.

Come celebrate this work of art and then join us for a trully great afterparty, and one truly unique experience.
