PACKED IN A TRUNK: THE LOST ART OF EDITH LAKE WILKINSON
July 20, 2015  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

 
I’d never heard of this artist before, much less her story, but wow. In the early 20th century, the family of Massachusetts painter Edith Lake Wilkinson committed her to an asylum – and her story ends there. Or at least it did, until these filmmakers began examining her artwork for clues, and intent upon retracing her steps, and her relationship with both her family and her canvases.
