Windmills (1963)

Movie 7 min

An animated film of children’s paintings that evokes the syncretistic sensibility of childhood and is a curious dialogue between this and a surrealist sensibility... The children’s drawings, which have powerful art brut qualities, were supplied by a friend, the printmaker Udo Sellbach, who was teaching art at St. Peter’s College in Adelaide, and Marek combined them with his own artwork, chiefly the backgrounds.
