1925 (aka Hell) is one of two animation loops directed by Max Hattler, inspired by the work of French outsider artist Augustin Lesage. 1925 is based on Lesage’s painting ‘A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World’ from 1925.
The second loop, 1923 (aka Heaven), is based on Lesage’s painting ‘A Symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World’ from 1923 and can be found here

Lesage’s stuff looks like Adolf Wölfli’s : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Wölfli

But that film didn’t look like Lesage’s.

“But that film didn’t look like Lesage’s.”

He was inspired by the idea, not the visual manifestation of the idea.

Dangerous Minds is a compendium of oddities, pop culture treasures, high weirdness, punk rock and politics drawn from the outer reaches of pop culture. Our editorial policy, such that it is, reflects the interests, whimsies and peculiarities of the individual writers. And sometimes it doesn't. Very often the idea is just "Here's what so and so said, take a look and see what you think." I'll repeat that: We're not necessarily endorsing everything you'll find here, we're merely saying "Here it is." We think human beings are very strange and often totally hilarious. We enjoy weird and inexplicable things very much. We believe things have to change and change swiftly. It's got to be about the common good or it's no good at all. We like to get suggestions of fun/serious things from our good-looking, high IQ readers. We are your favorite distraction.
