Short Film (Full Length) – 1981
He's wretched, servile. He's on the peripheral: like the criminal, out there somewhere, with the bourgeois, existing in the middle — they observe but they don't understand the future, the concepts of future. The artist does.– Art (Peter Cathro) muses on the role of the artist in society
... Life can be lived in the belief of reason, logic and order, along with its magical disruptions. Art is a matter of creative identity...– Art (Peter Cathro) muses philosophically
