Vertical Air
Year1996 Duration28 min. DirectorRobert Fenz
16mm. B&W
A buoyantly lyrical yet critical study of the US of A, Vertical Air marked Fenz’s first collaboration with jazz musician and composer Ishmael Wadada Leo Smith. Fenz’s innovative image-making makes clear his roots in the visual music tradition of avant-garde cinema embodied by the films of such pioneers as Hy Hirsh, Len Lye, Norman McLaren and Harry Smith.
