About

Interview with artist-sculptor-filmmaker-surrealist Hans Richter – his place in history and his pioneering work in several areas. Richter talks about his career – which started at the beginning of the century – early experiments with the movie camera, association with the world of the Surrealists, conflict with the National Socialists in Germany, the origins of Dada, and the evolution of his own style in painting, drawing and collage. Many films clips and examples of his graphic work illustrate his themes.
