Michael Snow

b. December 10, 1929 in Toronto, Ontario


<Michael Snow>

Michael James Aleck Snow, as he was born, is considered by many to be the most significant experimental filmmaker in the world. In addition to films, he is a famous painter, a photographer, sculptor and musician. Of his many works he is probably best known for his "walking woman" series which he worked on, in all media, from 1961 to 1967. Eleven sculptures formed part of the Ontario Pavillion at Montreal's Expo '67. For Expo '86 he produced a 48-image group of holographic pictures for a work titled The Special Image.
