  • Product Details

    Description: Wildly praised by the nation's top critics, the smash theatrical hit RIVERS AND TIDES is a mesmerizing, poetic and curiously contemplative portrait of revered Scottish sculptor Andy Goldsworthy, whose long-winding rock walls, icicle assemblages and other intricate, druidic masterpieces are made entirely of materials found in the wild. Gorgeously shot and edited by director Thomas Riedelsheimer, RIVERS AND TIDES is an intoxicating study of the fragile relationship between man, art and nature.

    5 stars Rivers and Tides review


    Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers & Tides
    . Great movie - I used it in my fifth grade classroom and they loved it!



    4 stars Why couldn't it be wide screen?


    Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers & Tides
    . Andy Goldsworthy is an amazing sculptor and if you have any affection for art I think you will enjoy this video both visually and for the things he says about how he works. He is a truly inspiring artist. So why, why, WHY did the publisher release this in a panned & scanned format instead of the full wide screen format in which it was originally shot? So sad! The world deserves better than this. They don't even bother to show the full screen during the credits at the end, so some of them are undecipherable. It looks like the 2-disc set is also P&S. That's so unfair to the filmmakers as well as to everyone who buys it.



    5 stars Enthralling


    Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers & Tides
    . In addition to artist, sculptor and naturalist, Andy Goldsworthy is a pied piper. I purchased this for my grandchildren, ages 7, 9, and 11. They were (as I was) enthralled. Watched over and over, we never tire of it.



    5 stars life + change


    Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers & Tides
    . There are two kinds of people that will see this video. One will think it's interesting. The other will find their perspective has changed completely.



    5 stars Amazing


    Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers & Tides
    . An artist unlike any you've ever seen. He creates works with and from nature, and understands that everything has a limited lifetime. He creates beautiful works, even though he knows they are transitory - although his stone walls may last for quite a while. I've seen those walls, and they're quite an amazing thing. If you like unique, individual works of art, you really need to see this video. He may be the most different, and maybe even the most important artist of our time.
