M.C. Escher-Adventures in perception pt.1

[mikeborja1]

this is so hard I am trying to study drawing, I can't understand how he could design these shapes so precise this is math and art pushed to the limits

Something tells me he hated his drafting teacher.

Wonderful find!

Escher's world... full of bizarre surrealism of sublime mathematical precision.. bigger than life - fractal-like mozaics, impossible objects, natural and cultural impressions, good vs. evil themes, always in that unmistakable evocative style.

I also like the music.. a lot. The whole of this video does Escher's world great justice.

(almost makes me feel proud to be Dutch, but he really was a Frisian ;) )

Yes, RobinofSactown, the one with Southern Italy is The Fantastic World of MC Escher. You're right, it is a pretty good one.

nice,you got some of the unusual,everyone does the staircase,good to see some other work

[RobinofSactown]

This is a somewhat rare film at this point- there's a great one thats an hour long with much about his life and early sketches of Southern Italy- hope someone posts that someday.
