About

You can watch You Can Go Now! (2023) for free on Kanopy.

The life and provocative work and writings of First Nations artist, Richard Bell. The film reveals the "two Richards" – "Richie" the provocateur and enfant terrible of the art world who challenges its whiteness, and the Richard who spent his childhood living in a tin shed, learnt his politics on the streets of Redfern and is known in his own community as an "activist".

From the cramped tin sheds of Redfern to the sterile galleries of the global art world, this portrait captures a life lived in constant defiance. Richard Bell dismantles institutional whiteness through a sharp, unapologetic lens that refuses to blink.
