“The exuberance and originality of New Zealand born artist Len Lye is revealed through his innovative short films and kinetic sculpture. Lye discusses his theory of the source of art and its significance in his work. ‘I was after motion and I didn’t quite know what kind of imagery to carry my motion.’ By the end of the 1930s Lye had become the best-known experimental filmmaker in Britain.” (Keith Griffiths)
