- Recycling elements of surrealism and cubism, this animated short by Theodore Ushev focuses on the relationship between art and war. Propelled by the exalting “invasion” theme from Shostakovich’s Leningrad Symphony (No. 7), the film presents imagery of combat fronts and massacres, leading us from Dresden to Guernica, from the Spanish Civil War to Star Wars. It is at once a symphony that serves the war machine, that stirs the masses, and art that mourns the dead, voices its outrage and calls for peace.
Directed by Theodore Ushev - 2012
la musique se Chostakovitch est magnifiquement mise en valeur
Wow, what a powerful piece. I'm impressed that something so abstract can have a deep meaning.
This is the most incredible depiction of warfare through the ages that I've ever seen. Truly one of my all time favourite piece of art.
BRILLIANT!! Very much worth watching several times to let more of it soak in. The synopsis in the the description below the video is a great aid.
Whoa, the agrarian devolved so quickly into aggression it really has me thinking about the connection.
HOT PISS THIS WAS GREAT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS GUY WAS SAYING BUT I HAD A LOT OF FUN WATCHING IT.
Well, that was just beautifully convoluted and confusing...
Did anybody notice that the two wrecks briefly shown in the beginning where from the end of Tower Bawher and Drux Flux?
I did. :)
The worst is yet to come..... Let Thy Kingdom Come.....Deliver us from evil,,,,
This is pretty amazing!
It's so great to find in this animation references to abstract / cubist painters. Starting from Kandinskiy, following Picasso and his Guernica, moving to specific cubism of Fernand Leger. And finishing with style of Roy Lichtenstein. Amazing!!
