Barney's Wall, a feature-length documentary filmed in Barney Rosset's New York City East Village loft, features an eclectic cast of writers, editors, publishers, artists, actors, filmmakers, musicians and friends of Barney. At the age of 88, Barney Rosset, the flamboyant and provocative publisher of Grove Press and Evergreen Review, who changed the course of publishing in the United States, began painting a gigantic mural on one wall of his loft, a defiant and final act of free expression. The film explores Degas' famous dictum, "Art is not what you see, but what you make others see" and demonstrates the truth of Rilke's observation that "the only journey is the one within." Barney's Wall documents the mural's emotional power, exploring the connectivity of creator and viewer, that exhilarating act of complicity we call the artistic experience.

An incisive, compulsively readable biography of the man the Guardian called "the most influential avant-garde publisher of the twentieth century."an impetuous outsider who delighted in confronting American hypocrisy and prudery, Barney Rosset liberated American culture from the constraints of Puritanism. As the head of Grove Press, he single-handedly broke down the laws against obscenity, changing forever the nature of writing and publishing in this country. He brought to the reading public the European avant-garde, among them Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter, radical political and literary voices such as Malcolm X, Che Guevara, and Jack Kerouac, steamy Victorian erotica, and banned writers such as D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller, and William Burroughs. His almost mystical belief in the sacrosanct nature of the First Amendment essentially demarcates the before and after of American publishing.barney explores how Grove's landmark legal victories freed publishers to print what they wanted, and it traces Grove's central role in the countercultural ferment of the sixties and early seventies. Drawing on the Rosset papers at Columbia University and personal interviews with former Grove Press staff members, friends, and wives, it tells the fascinating story of this feisty, abrasive, visionary, and principled cultural revolutionarya modern "huckleberry Finn" according to Nobel Prizewinning novelist Kenzaburo Oewho altered the reading habits of a nation.

William S. Burroughs, D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller. These writers have come to occupy the core of our 20th-century literary canon, but American readers might have missed their works completely were it not for one unwavering advocate. Chicagoan Barney Rosset and his fledgling Grove Press led the charge against censorship in the 1960s, helping to redefine the parameters of obscenity and bring this essential and provocative literature to college classrooms and the greater American reading public. Loren Glass, University of Iowa associate professor of 19th- and 20th-century American literature and cultural studies, recounts Rosset's campaign and explores how the literary avant-garde joined the mainstream.
Loren Glass is associate professor in the English department and the Center for the Book at the University of Iowa. His first book, Authors Inc.: Literary Celebrity in the Modern United States, was published by New York University Press in 2004. His history of Grove Press, Counter-Culture Colophon: Grove Press, the Evergreen Review, and the Incorporation of the Avant-Garde, is forthcoming in the Post45 Series with Stanford University Press in 2013.
This program is generously underwritten by Rose L. Shure and is presented in partnership with the American Library Association and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Obermann Center for Advanced Studies at the University of Iowa.

Barney Rosset
Barnet Lee "Barney" Rosset, Jr. (May 28, 1922 – February 21, 2012) was the owner of the publishing house Grove Press, and publisher and editor-in-chief of the magazine Evergreen Review. He led a successful legal battle to publish the uncensored version of D. H. Lawrence's novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, and later was the American publisher of Henry Miller's controversial novel Tropic of Cancer. The right to publish and distribute Miller's novel in the United States was affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1964, in a landmark ruling for free speech and the First Amendment.
Early life
Rosset was born and raised in Chicago to a Jewish father, Barnet Rosset, and an Irish Catholic mother, Mary (née Tansey). He attended the progressive Francis Parker School, where he was best friends with renowned cinematographer Haskell Wexler. He went on to study at Swarthmore College, UCLA and the New School for Social Research. He was graduated from the University of Chicago and received a second degree from the New School. During World War II, he served in the Army Signal Corps as an officer in a photographic company stationed in China. Rosset married American Abstract Expressionist painter Joan Mitchell in 1949. The couple later divorced. Mitchell was instrumental in Rosset's acquisition of Grove Press. He owned an East Hampton, Long Island quonset hut, previously used as a studio by painter Robert Motherwell.

Grove Press
Grove Press is an American publishing imprint that was founded in 1951. Imprints include: Black Cat, Evergreen, Venus Library, and Zebra. Barney Rosset purchased the company in 1951 and turned it into an alternative book press in the United States. He partnered with Richard Seaver to bring French literature to the United States. The Atlantic Monthly Press, under the aegis of its publisher, Morgan Entrekin, merged with Grove Press in 1991. Grove later became an imprint of the publisher Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
Literary avant-garde
Under Rossett's leaderhip, Grove introduced American readers to European avant-garde literature and theatre, including French authors Alain Robbe-Grillet, Jean Genet, and Eugène Ionesco. In 1954 Grove published Samuel Beckett's play Waiting for Godot after it had been refused by more mainstream publishers. Since then Grove has been Beckett's U.S. publisher. Grove is also the U.S. publisher of the works of Harold Pinter; in 2006 it published a collection called The Essential Pinter, which includes Pinter's Nobel Lecture, entitled "Art, Truth & Politics".In 2006 Grove published an anniversary bilingual edition of Waiting for Godot and a special four-volume edition of Beckett's works, with commissioned introductions by Edward Albee, J. M. Coetzee, Salman Rushdie, and Colm Tóibín, to commemorate his centenary (April 2006). Grove was also the first American house to publish the unabridged complete works of the Marquis de Sade, translated by Seaver and Austryn Wainhouse. Grove also had an interest in Japanese literature, publishing several anthologies as well as works by Kenzaburō Ōe and others.

Barney's Wall, a feature-length documentary filmed in Barney Rosset's New York City East Village loft, features an eclectic cast of writers, editors, publishers, artists, actors, filmmakers, musicians and friends of Barney. At the age of 88, Barney Rosset, the flamboyant and provocative publisher of Grove Press and Evergreen Review, who changed the course of publishing in the United States, began painting a gigantic mural on one wall of his loft, a defiant and final act of free expression. The film explores Degas' famous dictum, "Art is not what you see, but what you make others see" and demonstrates the truth of Rilke's observation that "the only journey is the one within." Barney's Wall documents the mural's emotional power, exploring the connectivity of creator and viewer, that exhilarating act of complicity we call the artistic experience.

An incisive, compulsively readable biography of the man the Guardian called "the most influential avant-garde publisher of the twentieth century."an impetuous outsider who delighted in confronting American hypocrisy and prudery, Barney Rosset liberated American culture from the constraints of Puritanism. As the head of Grove Press, he single-handedly broke down the laws against obscenity, changing forever the nature of writing and publishing in this country. He brought to the reading public the European avant-garde, among them Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter, radical political and literary voices such as Malcolm X, Che Guevara, and Jack Kerouac, steamy Victorian erotica, and banned writers such as D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller, and William Burroughs. His almost mystical belief in the sacrosanct nature of the First Amendment essentially demarcates the before and after of American publishing.barney explores how Grove's landmark legal victories freed publishers to print what they wanted, and it traces Grove's central role in the countercultural ferment of the sixties and early seventies. Drawing on the Rosset papers at Columbia University and personal interviews with former Grove Press staff members, friends, and wives, it tells the fascinating story of this feisty, abrasive, visionary, and principled cultural revolutionarya modern "huckleberry Finn" according to Nobel Prizewinning novelist Kenzaburo Oewho altered the reading habits of a nation.

William S. Burroughs, D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller. These writers have come to occupy the core of our 20th-century literary canon, but American readers might have missed their works completely were it not for one unwavering advocate. Chicagoan Barney Rosset and his fledgling Grove Press led the charge against censorship in the 1960s, helping to redefine the parameters of obscenity and bring this essential and provocative literature to college classrooms and the greater American reading public. Loren Glass, University of Iowa associate professor of 19th- and 20th-century American literature and cultural studies, recounts Rosset's campaign and explores how the literary avant-garde joined the mainstream.
Loren Glass is associate professor in the English department and the Center for the Book at the University of Iowa. His first book, Authors Inc.: Literary Celebrity in the Modern United States, was published by New York University Press in 2004.

BTW, Wexler is 93 years old and a legend in the film world. From wiki:
Haskell Wexler, A.S.C. (born February 6, 1922[1]) is an American cinematographer, film producer, and director. Wexler was judged to be one of film history's ten most influential cinematographers in a survey of the members of the International Cinematographers Guild.[3]
Early life and education
Wexler was born to a Jewish family in Chicago, Illinois, in 1922. His parents were Simon and Lottie Wexler, whose children included Jerrold, Joyce (Isaacs), and Yale. He attended the progressive Francis Parker School, where he was best friends with Barney Rosset.
After a year of college at the University of California, Berkeley and a tour in the United States Merchant Marine during World War II,[4] Wexler decided to become a filmmaker.
Based in Chicago, Wexler made many documentaries, including The Living City, which was nominated for an Academy Award.
Film career
Wexler briefly made industrial films in Chicago, then in 1947 became an assistant cameraman. Wexler worked on documentary features and shorts; low-budget docu-dramas such as 1959's The Savage Eye; television's The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet; and TV commercials. (He would later found Wexler-Hall, a television commercial production company, with Conrad Hall.) He made ten documentary films with director Saul Landau, including "Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang," which aired on PBS and won an Emmy Award and a George Polk Award. Other notable documentaries shot and co-directed (with Landau) by Wexler included "Brazil: A Report on Torture," "The CIA Case Officer," and "The Sixth Sun: A Mayan Uprising in Chiapas."
In 1963, Wexler served as the cinematographer on his first big-budget film, Elia Kazan's America, America. The film had a stunning look, and Kazan was nominated for a Best Director Academy Award. Wexler worked steadily in Hollywood thereafter. Wexler was cinematographer of Mike Nichols' screen version of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966), for which he won the last Academy Award for Best Cinematography (Black & White).[5] The following year had Wexler as the cinematographer for the Oscar winning detective drama, In the Heat of the Night (1967), starring Sidney Poitier. His work was notable for enabling the first major Hollywood film in color to be lit with proper consideration for a person of African descent. Wexler recognized that standard lighting tended to produce too much glare on that kind of dark complexion and rendered the features indistinct. Accordingly, Wexler toned it down to feature Poitier with better photographic results.[6]
He won a second Oscar for Bound for Glory (1976), a biography of Woody Guthrie (whom Wexler had met during his time in the Merchant Marine). Bound for Glory was the first feature film to make use of the newly invented Steadicam, in a famous sequence that also incorporated a crane shot. Wexler was also credited as additional cinematographer on Days of Heaven (1978), which won a Best Cinematography Oscar for Nestor Almendros. Wexler was also featured on the soundtrack of the film Underground (1976), recorded on Folkways Records in 1976.
He has worked on documentaries throughout his career. The documentary Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang (1980) earned an Emmy Award; Interviews with My Lai Veterans (1970) won an Academy Award. His most recent documentaries include Bus Riders' Union (2000), about the modernization and expansion of bus services in Los Angeles by the organization and its founder Eric Mann,Who Needs Sleep (2006),[7] the Independent Lens documentary, Good Kurds, Bad Kurds: No Friends But the Mountains (2000),[8] Tell Them Who You Are (2004),[9] and Bringing King to China (2011).
Wexler has also directed fictional movies. Medium Cool (1969), a film written by Wexler and shot in the cinéma vérité style, is studied by film students all over the world for its breakthrough form. It influenced more than a generation of filmmakers. The making of Medium Cool was the subject of a BBC documentary, Look Out Haskell, It's Real: The Making of Medium Cool (2001).[10]
Produced by Lucasfilm, Wexler's film Latino (1985) was chosen for the 1985 Cannes Film Festival. He both wrote and directed the work. Another directing project was From Wharf Rats to Lords of the Docks (2007), an intimate exploration of the life and times of Harry Bridges, an extraordinary labor leader and social visionary described as "a hero or the devil incarnate, it all depends on your point of view."[11]
