      Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times A poignant documentary about the transformative power of art. Dec 18, 2014 Full Review Kate Erbland The Dissolve The film skips around from time and place, a handful of transitions are smooth and natural while others don't fare nearly as well, and the effect is choppy and unrefined. Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety "The Barefoot Artist" is an engaging portrait of Lily Yeh, a Chinese emigre to the U.S. who has made her major imprint creating collaborative art with residents in areas torn by war, poverty and other hardships. Dec 4, 2014 Full Review Daniel Walber Nonfics A remarkably restrained and intuitively beautiful portrait of the relationship between art, its audience and the sadness of both its inspiration and its creator. Rated: 4/5 Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Shirley Sealy Film Journal International There's some powerful material in The Barefoot Artist, but we're presented with only a cursory and unsatisfactory glimpse of it.
