<i>A book presenting multifaceted artist David through a large selection of his paintings, photographs, drawings, experimental movies, and acoustic creations.</i> <b>The first major collection of artwork by the acclaimed movie director David Lynch.</b> Spanning a period of forty years, David Lynch's widely respected films and television series include <i>Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks, Lost Highway</i>, and <i>Mulholland Drive</i>. However, his prolific visual art production, which began even before his films, has rarely been seen. In March 2007, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain presented <i>The Air is on Fire</i>, an exhibition portraying the multiple facets of David Lynch’s art. It was the first time that the artist had exhibited such an extensive number of paintings, photographs, drawings, experimental films, and sound creations. His art echoes his films in theme and aesthetic, yet offers viewers a fresh and more intimate glimpse into his singular universe. The book also contains several essays that analyze his artworks, as well as a conversation with Lynch, interviewed within the context of the show. The book that accompanied the exhibition unveiled David Lynch’s little known yet highly prolific artistic production, which started even before he became a director and has rarely been shown. It is a reference work that covers the artist’s different fields of creation: painting, photography, drawing, and motion pictures. His visual creations are aesthetic echoes of his films that offer a new look at his work and the opportunity to plunge deeper into his personal world. The book is accompanied by an interview with David Lynch (on CD), in which the artist provides a veritable commentary on his works.
