A film unmade-- That is, Survage's film was never realized in the traditional sense-- At the time, such a project was beyond technological possibility. His pioneering efforts to combine luminous, expressive painting and the moving picture were further curtailed by the outbreak of WWI. Some have taken it upon themselves to 'animate' his watercolor plates in attempts to set his dream into motion.
“A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Léopold Survage's vision lands with breathtaking precision.”
“Every frame feels alive. Colored Rhythm: Study for the Film is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.”
