PETER GREENAWAY

Intervals   

1969   

0:06:26

A structuralist film which repeats with variations three times. The picture track has been edited to the soundtrack. The soundtrack is revised on successive recitals and reshapes the film each time.

"Very abstract, an attempt to make a movie without narrative using the figure 13, the harmonic structure Vivaldi used in The Seasons. It was made in Venice and combined images from both the Biennale - representing the high culture of painting in Europe - and the Film Festival, largely through graffiti on the houses in Venice." Peter Greenaway
