John Semley Globe and Mail Overstuffed with biographical details and taking-head interviews with friends and hangers-on, it's over-didactic and dull. Rated: 1/4 Mar 3, 2017 Full Review Tom Long Detroit News "Eva Hesse" is a remarkable film about an even more remarkable artist, a woman who playfully and resolutely turned the world of sculpture inside out. Rated: B+ Aug 26, 2016 Full Review John Hartl Seattle Times Unique and satisfying ... Rated: 3/4 Jul 28, 2016 Full Review Peter Keough Arts Fuse Marcie Begleiter’s stolid and engaging Eva Hesse provides an introduction to her meteoric life and career. Aug 26, 2022 Full Review Benjamin Sutton Hyperallergic The documentary immerses us in Hesse's inner monologue, lending great emotional depth and complexity to someone who was both very sensitive and very thoughtful. Feb 4, 2020 Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate A full and compelling picture is painted of a major talent that the world lost far too soon. Rated: 3.3/5 Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Amazing doc for so many reasons. A picture of commitment as an artist--exploration, development, ambition, resilience. This is a doc for every artist who wants to understand how,why,who,what,where--what art asks of you. Beautifully written and edited, wise choices were made throughout. Great to see so may interviewed and what they thought about Eva. I could go on and on and on.... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
