Monster in the Forest: the Story of the Cyclop
57m
In 1969, Jean Tinguely and Niki de Saint Phalle began an amazing artistic adventure. “With help from a group of their artist friends, the pair started construction on the Cyclop in a park on the outskirts of Paris. The Cyclop (which plays a major role in Saint Phalle’s film UN RÊVE PLUS LONG QUE LA NUIT) is a monumental sculpture made of twisted metal, mirrors, stairways, footbridges, fountains, and a gigantic eye in the middle of the “forehead.” Inside, an installation of noisy gears, unique gadgets, and riotous machines delights visitors. Nearly forgotten until filmmakers Louise Faure and Anne Julien rediscovered it for this sterling documentary, Cyclop remains a shining example of Nouveau Realisme.” — FACETS
