	SPECTOR - Andrew Jeffrey Wright - Press
		Wright is also showing painted T-shirts, a 'zine, buttons, screenprints, and two freestanding mixed-media pieces made in collaboration with artist Barry McGee, both involving stuffed animals.
		Wright's juvenile humor and freewheeling everything-but-the-kitchen-sink aesthetic are delicious together - he makes me think of Richard Prince, Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw rolled into one - but his filmic display style could be even more compressed and expanded than it is now.
		Andrew Jeffrey Wright's second solo exhibit at Spector Gallery, "Art World," is one of the smartest and sassiest shows of the year.

		Three Wrights (from left): As a painter in 1996's Basquiat, as a young Martin Luther King Jr.
		Wright was reared an only child in Washington, D.C., where he attended a largely white private school.
		Playing King was a good fit for Wright, who seems more comfortable discussing society's greed, for example, than his personal life.

		Tony Award-winning actor Jeffrey Wright does a brilliant job portraying a man tortured by self-doubt and thoughts of suicide, struggling to survive and be acknowledged as an artist.
		Jeffrey Wright is just fine as the troubled and gifted artist who became an overnight sensation in the New York art world and then, according to writer/director Julian Schnabel (who should know) was more or less eaten alive by it.
		Jeffrey Wright's portrayal of Basquiat is very subtle and quite moving and I enjoy taking in something new in his portrayal of the ill-fated Basquiat each time I view this work.

		Wright continued to work steadily in film and television for the next several years, including a role in Woody Allen's "Celebrity" in 1998 and Ang Lee's independent film "Ride with the Devil" in 1999.
		Then in Jim Jarmusch’s “Broken Flowers” (2005), Wright had a supporting role a crime-novel enthusiast who fancies himself a detective and convinces his neighbor (Bill Murray) to go on a road trip after being shown a letter from an ex-girlfriend claiming to be the mother of his long-lost son.
		Wright next joined an excellent supporting cast in “Casino Royale” (2006), the 21st installment of the never-ending James Bond series and the first to star blonde Daniel Craig, whose cold and calculating take on Ian Fleming’s super agent hit closer to the author’s original vision of the character.

	Jeffrey Wright \| Close Up \| Guardian Unlimited Film
		Critics and audiences might think that Wright, playing Dominican drugs baron Peoples Hernandez, steals the new Shaft film from under Samuel L Jackson's nose.
		Controversially, nothing was changed about the part, so Wright plays it with slicked-down hair, white clothes and an extravagant 'Spanglish' diction.
		Then again, Wright's gleeful nastiness fits in the tradition of other distinguished Shakespeareans-turned-sniggering villains, established by the likes of Alan Rickman.

	Jeffrey Wright - actor - Interview Interview - Find Articles
		Although thirty-three-year-old Jeffrey Wright has played starring roles before, most notably as the painter Jean-Michel Basquiat in Basquiat (1996) and in Angels in America on Broadway, he's not an actor who apparently clamors for the audience's attention, but one who establishes himself each time as a quiet yet forceful personality.
		A relative latecomer to acting, Wright studied political science at Amherst College and only ventured onstage after taking a summer acting course.
		But both kinds of training - artistic and academic - served him well when he took on the role of Daniel Holt, a freed slave who fights alongside the Confederate raider (played by Simon Baker) who once owned him in Ang Lee's powerful new Civil War drama, Ride With the Devil.

		Fox chairman Tom Rothman recently teased that an announcement regarding who would be playing the villain was just around the corner and, while news probably leaked a bit earlier than they would've liked, it's all good as far as I see it.
