M.C. Escher: Journey to Infinity
February 15, 2021
12:01 am
Ithaca Premiere>2018 > Netherlands > Directed by Robin Lutz
With narration by Stephen Fry
"This engaging film about Dutch graphic artist Maurits Cornelis Escher takes viewers into his dreamlike world. Rich testimonials offer viewers a glimpse into the soul of the artist, who saw himself as a mathematician above all. The film's animations deftly express the mathematical dimensions of his work. Escher inspired many musicians in the 1960s and '70s, and his brilliant influence continues in contemporary graphic novels and cinema." (The International Festival of Films on Art) In Dutch, English, Italian & German. Subtitled. More at www.zeitgeistfilms.com/film/mcescherjourneytoinfinity
