Summary

Pathe synopsis: One of the world’s foremost sculptors is Dr Arthur Fleischmann. He’s worked with every conceivable material - some that were conceived through his desire to extend the form of his art. Perpsex, for example, inspired Dr Fleischmann fifteen years ago. He has learned to love the medium particularly because of its translucent quality. It can give a subdued glow or sparkle like jewellery. Fifteen years has filled his home with perspex carvings of every sort - and its this perspex home that intrigued us as it will surely intrigue you.
