Andy Goldsworthy's Rivers and Tides is a truly beautiful, Scottish-German 2001 documentary about artist Goldsworthy, a Scotsman whose medium is nature itself and whose preferred studio is the outdoors, particularly where water forever flows, rises, and/or retreats. The soft-spoken, secluded Goldsworthy is seen hard at work making ephemeral sculptures out of bits of ice in the trees, or building tall, mysterious cones from loose rock, which stand like spiritual sentinels in forests and on shorelines, overgrown by plants or swallowed daily by high tides. Filmmaker-cinematographer Thomas Reidelsheimer goes to great and sometimes inexplicable lengths to make visual corollaries to Goldsworthy's ideas about underappreciated relationships between light, color, movement, balance, and fluidity of form in the real world, making Rivers and Tides a lively and always surprising cinematic gallery. Some of Goldsworthy's most miraculous natural installations--stone walls that snake through hundreds of feet of forest and stream, for instance--show up in the last half-hour. --Tom Keogh

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.

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.

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.

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.
