Matthew Barney in Conversation with Paul Holdengräber

From his earliest work, Matthew Barney has explored the transcendence of physical limitations within an interdisciplinary art practice. His epic Cremaster Cycle, a five-part film project he began in 1994 and completed in 2002, incorporated accompanying sculptures, photographs, and drawings. Barney's latest and arguably most ambitious project is River of Fundament, loosely based on Norman Mailer's 1983 novel Ancient Evenings, and blending narrative cinema with opera, sculpture and live performance. Barney joins Paul Holdengraber to explore his boundless imagination and wide-ranging career.
