John Waters, art connoisseur
Look out, Baltimore: Local legend John Waters, maker of films that celebrate outsiders, is now an art world insider, with pieces from his quirky and provocative art collection on display at the Baltimore Museum of Art. Correspondent Rita Braver talks with Waters, and with curator Leila Grothe, about the essence of a collection from the so-called "Pope of Trash."

He's an original and there will never be another like him. Great personality, singular vision and always full of joy. If you hate him..... it would probably make him smile and have a witty line about it. What a great way to live your life.
He is a national treasure. Been a fan since the 1970's....and still am.
We need more John Waters in the world! ❤️

I can't love John Waters enough!
Icon and inspiration! Baltimore and the universe is blessed to have him around.
I remember when he did an article on fashion where he wanted to issue violations to the fashion challenged. What a character!
One of the BEST .!!!!
He is a great guy. The real deal.
My God I love this man. I have all his books. I wish he would do one more movie before he goes. I can't imagine what he would come up with after the life he's had.
we are so lucky to have john waters
John Waters as a living legend
im really grateful directors like these get the praise they deserve
A cardboard box with locks… reminds me of the Military Industrial Complex.
Love john, a truly wonderful human being.
His clothing is quite the collection as well. That jacket with the rained-on shoulders is genius.

His last statement says so much because as an outsider he changed more than most insiders put together ever did. Thank you John Waters for being who you are and bringing joy to my life. I adore you.
I love you John Waters. Thank you for making me happy for so many years. I can still quote lines from your films like "Polyester", " Crybaby", and "Hairspray". I hope you live for many years and create more.
This man has been my top hero since I saw Pink Flamingos in '72 at the NuArt Theater's Midnight Premiere. I'm 73 now and still find time to watch it and many other of his films. I love them and I love John and all those he introduced. ❤
I love his appreciation of Twombly. Great guy.
LOVE John Waters
John Waters is amazing. He must be protected at all costs!
Really great to see this! Thank you John!!
John Water, you, sir, are a work of art.
I think that idea for bathrooms is the literal future.
The greatest ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Absolutely love this! I love nutty art. It certainly makes a trip to the MOMA more interesting
I remember seeing Pink Flamingos and looking around the theater before sinking low into my seat in case I knew anyone. I was grossed out and laughed a lot and went on to see his other movies. I even got to stand behind Tab Hunter at the concession line of the Nuart Theater when I saw Polyester. I’m glad John Waters is being celebrated.
That wacky dude from Baltimore!! He IS unique though!!!
I use to live in B'more and like many residents, had a JW sighting in Fell's Point. I love John's work and style. I'd fly to B'more to see this exhibit.
John's the Best 🎉🎉🎉
This guy is amazing.👍♥️
LOVE THIS!
Great human being.
4:56 Dad speaking his language. Now that's masterpiece.
god bless John Waters. He is exactly what this country needs right now.
Thank you.
Beautiful. Beautiful Man.
My HERO
love him
Love John, miss Divine.
John
He is ahead of his time and very funny
He is one of the few redemptive Americans of the 20th Century. Long live/love John Waters...

This dude just stepped on a Carl Andre piece n he didn’t care such a goat
The only celebrity I’d be interested in meeting in person
Somehow the words "Prince Of Puke" don't seem to roll off Rita Bravers' tongue! 😸Great vid, long live JW!
How I laughed!
Nan Goldin and John Waters collab? I head no idea! : )
SO, they're flipping out about Hairspray, the "Mainstream Movie Version" At some point, if you and Divine are Interested, of course I'd put on Pink Flamingos. Oh my God. I'm a little freaked out. Love, Don xoxo
Vincent Price was also a massive art collector and true connoisseur. He even went to London to studied towards a Masters Degree in Art History.

Thank you so much for that "The Simpsons" quote from when he was a guest star.
"Filth are my politics, Filth is my life!" Amazing... Pink Flamingoes basically predicted and foreshadowed the modern republican party 🤣
He makes trash, he collects trash.
Waters is a genius who created a style of filming and was blessed by a Star presence icon named Divine as leading Lady in his classic hits. God bless John Waters specially because I think he's agnostic.
John Waters is GOD!!

Rita Braver, a wonderful journalist, is not an artist and so asks the typical, painfully simplistic kinds of questions one would expect. It would be meaningful if Waters could present the works in his collection as more than crazy and wacky. I am positive that sees them as more than just goofball crap, but by not acknowledging this he does a disservice to the various artists and their work. I'm thinking especially of the Tuttle piece shown at the beginning of the segment. A knockout piece by a incredibly important artist is reduced to a bad, one-line joke -- and so what is the general supposed to public think with Waters denigrating it??

This is completely misunderstanding what Waters is saying in this video. He's saying other people didn't appreciate the art but he found the beauty/value in the items. He's being positive.
Olin se 100 joka kuunteli tämän....
I want to be able to have the power to change things? I heard the same statement on the History channel recently. It was in the 40's I think.
piece of taste🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have Republicans tried to ban John Waters yet? 😂
This offends me as an artist how is it that he can show off his art in an art gallery? At the same time, I'm struggling just to get by!

With respect, many would conclude his father was correct ... it’s ‘CRAZY’ an underwhelming collection of stuff. He should take a long rest in the Rest Room. One good thing, at least John’s tattooed moustache shows a little perspective and some linear drawing skill 🤦♂️
It's all nonsenseivity!🤮
