After Montgolfier

Davidson Gigliotti
1979, 10:35 min, color, sound

Description

This elegant study in abstraction and landscape from an aerial perspective takes its title from the Montgolfiers, the 18th-century French scientists who popularized balloon travel. Documenting an exhilarating ride in a hot-air balloon over Minnesota farmlands and cityscapes, Gigliotti's study of abstracted forms of the American landscape revels in a lush, painterly quality.
