Shuji
Terayama was a poet, playwright, novelist, artist and filmmaker. International
avant-garde art circles treat Mr Terayama like a god. His legacy is
celebrated with a lavish museum dedicated solely to his art, established
in Misawa Japan. Unfortunately, in the USA, his work remains largely
unknown, probably due to its unorthodox, quirky concept of sexuality.
Mr Shuji Terayama died from Nephrotic Syndrome, May 1983, at age 47.
But his experimental, radical vision continues to live through motion
pictures [THE
BOXER, SCANDALOUS
ADVENTURES OF BURAIKEN, FRUITS
OF PASSION: STORY OF O], through his plays [Hunchback
of Aomori, Lemmings to the End of the World,
et al], through his controversial art, his poetry and - this - his
collection of short experiment films.
Here are 13 rare, cutting-edge short films - ranging from 5 minutes
to 45 minutes - designed, written and directed by the legendary Shuji
Terayama. [Titles are listed below]
