The Air Is on Fire

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Air Is on Fire was a retrospective on the art work of artist and filmmaker David Lynch using themes from his childhood, adolescent, and adult life.[1][2][3] It ran from February 24 to May 27, 2007, at the Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain in Paris.[1] The exhibition was also presented in 2009 in Moscow, Russia,[4] updated with a series of lithographs made in 2007–8.[5]

The exhibition was later shown at Gl Strand in Copenhagen, Denmark from September 26, 2010, to January 16, 2011.[6][7]

The soundscape accompanying the exhibition was released as a CD in 2007. It was subsequently reissued on vinyl through Sacred Bone Records on the Record Store Day of 2014.[8]
