Anamorphosis (1993)
Directed by Stephen Quay, Timothy Quay, Roger Cardinal
Overview
The Quays’ interest in esoteric illusions finds its perfect realization in this fascinating animated lecture on the art of anamorphosis. This artistic technique, often used in the 16th- and 17th centuries, utilizes a method of visual distortion with which paintings, when viewed from different angles, mischievously revealed hidden symbols.
