Art & Krimes by Krimes Overview
The documentary film “Art & Krimes by Krimes” follows artist Jesse Krimes, who over the course of his six years in a federal prison in the United States was able to produce significant works of art in secret, including a 40-foot mural made out of newspaper, hair gel, and prison bed sheets that he smuggled out of jail piece by piece with the help of other artists.
It is directed by Alysa Nahmias and features animation made in conjunction with Krimes by renowned animator Molly Schwartz. The original music was composed by Amanda Jones in collaboration with previous prisoners who had participated in the Musicambia prison music program.

Sheila Nevins, Jenifer Westphal, Joe Plummer, Patty Quillin, Hallee Adelman, and Ivy Herman are executive producers. Nion McEvoy, Leslie Berriman, Sheri Sobrato-Brisson, and Ruth Ann Harnisch are co-executive producers.
Art & Krimes by Krimes Cast
Russell Craig, Jared Owens, Gilberto Rivera, and Jesse Krimes themselves make up the majority of the actors in the documentary “Art & Krimes by Krimes,” which is directed by Alysa Nahmias. These four are in the movie and have self-portrayed their roles. The Right to Return Fellowship for artists who were formerly incarcerated was founded by Jesse Krimes and Russell Craig.
An acclaimed exhibition of their work, including Jesse Krimes’ masterpiece “Apokaluptein 16389067,” was held last year at MoMA PS1 in New York as a result of their appearance in the movie.
Art & Krimes by Krimes Plot
The plot goes like when Krimes was caught on suspicion of possessing cocaine and given a six-year prison sentence, he was in his 20s and had just graduated from college. Jesse Krimes is a person who could transfer any type of picture from magazines & newspapers onto small soap squares using a plastic spoon and hair gel.
The images were then inserted into holes he had made in decks of cards. On jail bedclothes, he created a 40-foot mural that he dubbed his hidden masterpiece. As “a contemporary rendition of Dante’s heaven, earth, and hell where politicians, celebrities, and criminals function as archangels, angels, and devils,” Krimes refers to the piece as “Apokaluptein: 16389067.”
He smuggled out each panel piece-by-piece with the help of fellow artists, only seeing the mural in whole upon returning home. Soon after being released from prison, Nahmias started filming with Krimes. She said at the time, “Whether he’d end up back in the system or not, was an open question.”
Given that the U.S. carceral system is built to re-arrest people for every transgression rather than to help them develop and contribute outside of it, that is statistically the most likely result for anyone leaving jail. No matter what happened, Nahmias vowed to work with Jesse to tell his narrative because it was about the ability of art to expose and combat the racial and economic injustices of mass incarceration.
I had no idea how influential and dramatic his journey would be when we first started.
