Lowell Nesbitt

A black-and-white travel journal, in which the themes of memories and their relationship to the past suddenly catch up and rush away from us. The film is based on a series of portraits of American artists, all of whom belong to a young and politicized generation, presented in static tableaus from their studios, films and home environments.

A documentary film depicting Lowell Nesbitt, his assistant Milton Dean, and artist Barbara Farrell, showing aspects of the work on the mobile. The Artmobile was a changing exhibition space on wheels, operated by the Miami-Dade Public Library System (MDPLS), by Fine Arts Librarians Margarita Cano and Barbara Young. It traveled around Miami-Dade County from the 1970s through the early '90s. The Artmobile was donated by Southeast Bank and painted with vibrating zebra stripes and purple flowers by Nesbitt in 1976 and again in July 1987.
