The Air is on Fire is the first major work to present the diverse artistic talents of David Lynch. Over 400 original works (photos, drawings, paintings) are commented on in the order they appear by David Lynch in an interview with Kristine McKenna (in English on a CD).
Exploring the links between art and cinema in the history of xxth century art and particularly in Lynch's work, a rich interview between Boris Groys and Andrei Ujica offers theoretical insight into the body of work of this great filmmaker, painter, sculptor and photographer.
