The Price of Everything
Why this pick
Its probing look at artists, collectors, dealers, and auction culture shares the earlier film’s skeptical interest in the power structures that determine art’s value and ownership.

The Painter and the Thief
Why this pick
Though more intimate, it shares a fascination with art’s ownership and meaning, unfolding as an unusually humane, visually attentive documentary about an artist and the man who stole her work.

Exit Through the Gift Shop
Why this pick
For its wry, slippery examination of artistic authenticity and the machinery around cultural value, this is an entertaining fit for the art-world skepticism in The Art of the Steal.
