Rivers and Tides
Wednesday, October 6, 8:00-9:30 pm
Sculpture Terrace, second floor
Thomas Riedelsheimer's film follows renowned sculptor Andy Goldsworthy as he creates with ice, driftwood, bracken, leaves, stone, dirt, and snow in open fields, beaches, rivers, creeks, and forests. We see Goldsworthy as he works to understand the energetic flow in nature, represented often by water, by wind, or simply the passage of seasons. Both carefully composed and fluid, Rivers and Tides keeps its focus on the artist's vision and work, giving us room to ponder our own relationship to the energy coursing through the natural world.
Angles Cafe will be open for refreshments. In the event of rain, the film screening will be moved indoors.
