The Cactus of Klaus

Directed by Lydia Fine and Tony Blahd

The grounds of Klaus Rinke’s Los Angeles studio overflow with an otherworldly cactus garden. The cactus—a plant firmly rooted in the horticultural zeitgeist—is a lifelong obsession of the enigmatic artist whose career as a pioneering conceptual artist spans more than 6-decades. Striking footage of the cacti garden reveals a surreal hidden geometry and illuminates the uncanny ways in which cacti and humans express themselves and coexist.
