Filmmaker Neil Berkeley documents the life and times of American artist Wayne White.

Violet Lucca

Film Comment Magazine

This is certainly not to suggest that White's work is worthless or unimpressive, but the way it is sold to us is predictable and unclever.

"Beauty Is Embarrassing" is an undeniably likable film, mainly because White is a likable guy who believes comedy is at least as important as tragedy.

Rated: B

Eugene Weekly (OR)

An affectionate portrait of one creative man, Beauty [is Embarrassing] may make you wonder how many other artists like [Wayne] White have stories just as deserving of a cinematic telling.

Washington Examiner

And so [Wayne] White continues to be his own man, as it's clear from this well-crafted documentary that he always has been.

Rated: 3/4

Judging from this documentary, his character is as exuberant as his work, and he seems to be one of those lucky people who simply can't stop creating...

Rated: 6/10

White seems like he'd be an interesting guy to hang around for any arbitrary amount of time (anywhere between 1 second to perhaps over 400 minutes, give or take.)

Solid documentary. If you're in the mood to watch a documentary this would be one of the better choices that you could make. When comedy and art meet.
