Great Tales in Asian Art
Robert Bowell
My name is Rob Bowell, and I'm Kultur Video's internet
representative. Our company, for the past 15 years, has been the single
most active video company in terms of programs related to the arts, both
visual and performing.
I hope you find the following to your interest (I know it's my
favorite video in our library of over 500 titles that I've seen).
Kultur is proud to present:
Great Tales in Asian Art (#1461, $19.95, 82 min.):
Filmed on location, four eloved stories of India, Indonesia,
Korea and Japan are told through the masterpieces of visual art and the
stirring performances these tales have inspired for centuries.
"The Ramayana," the epic adventures of India's legendary hero,
are illustrated with Indian paintings, Indonesian sculpture, Javanese
shadow play and dramatic reenactments. In the "Korean Masked Dance
Drama," told by actors wearing audaciously conceived masks, social satire
is "masked" by bold humor and comic dance. "Gita Govinda," India's
greatest erotic poem, is interpreted by a beautiful dancer and celebrated
in lyrical painted images. "The Tale of Genji," tha amorous adventures
of Prince Genji, are told by a Japanese woman in period costume, as
colorful paintings from scrolls and scenes illustrate Japan's most famous
romantic novel.
Combining the visual arts with performance in a new and original
format, "Great Tales in Asian Art" is an imaginative and entertaining
introduction to the art of Asia.
