The Fragmentations Only Mean …
Movie Information
The Fragmentations Only Mean … is an audiovisual landscape of the Noah Purifoy Outdoor Museum, located in the California high desert. In 1986 Noah Purifoy (1917- 2004) retired from his position of many years on the California Arts Council and moved to a remote desert site north of Joshua Tree National Park, where, over the last eighteen years of his life, he created an ambitious series of over a hundred assemblage sculptures which sprawl over acres of the harsh, arid land, and address issues of North American history, race relations, social justice, contemporary philosophy, and human interactions with and impact upon the environment.
