Scenes From An Execution by Howard Barker deals with the eternally fractious and complex relationship between the artist and the state.

Galactia, a 15th century Venetian painter, is commissioned by the State of Venice to portray the Battle of Lepanto, a naval battle described as “the greatest triumph of Venetian history.” However, her 1,000 square feet of canvas contains quite a different interpretation. Thus the battle over truth, freedom and responsibility is engaged. 

Directed by Richard Romagnoli. 
with Jan Maxwell as Galactia & Alex Draper as the Doge of Venice
