Biography

George Landow (1944 – 2011), also known as Owen Land, was a painter, writer, photographer, and experimental filmmaker. He also worked under the pen names Orphan Morphan and Apollo Jize. His later films, made mostly during the 1960s and 1970s, are some of the first examples of the "structural film" movement.
