Lynch shows off his love of film making in one of the loveliest representations of long distance space travel ever shot. I guess these are the cheap looking special effects, of which some of the more foolish film critics complained.

Fire, Bread and Puppet Theater
Peter Schumann, 1965
Performed at the Internet Archive, Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist
Richmond District, San Francisco, California, October 9, 2015
There were also a couple of shorter shows before the main performance, along with some tedious speeches by the sponsors of the evening. Peter, supported by Joshua Krugman, performed one of his fiddle lectures, which directly attacked some of the most cherished beliefs of the aforementioned sponsor. The current touring company band also performed many of the standard Bread and Puppet standards, focusing mostly on the Klezmer and New Orleans tunes in their repertoire.

Antonio del Pollaiolo, Florence 1429 - Rome 1498
Ercole e l'Idra
Ercole e Deianira
Davide con la testa di Golia
Antonio del Pollaiolo produced the most prized male nudes of the early Renaissance. Either he or his brother, Piero, produced the greatest painting of Sebastiane (the one on which, I assume, Derek Jarman modeled his great filmic representation of the martyrdom.) His representations of Hercules, both in painting and sculpture remain iconic to this day. Few painters have shown such joy in the depiction of muscular strain. The homoerotic component of his work was likely admired in his own day as well.
Sebastiane
Battaglia di dieci uomini nud
Nudi danzanti
Arresto del Battista
Pollaiolo produced major work in pretty much every medium available to visual artists of his time: drawing, engraving, bronze, tapestry design, fresco and panel painting. He painted lovely portraits and figures of women as well, from the ladies of the courts in Florence and Rome to the mythical Magdalene and Daphne.
