Watch The Natural Art

Overview

Legendary Bay Area surf photographer Fred Windisch's surf and psychedelia film from 1969: The Natural Art is an expression of the lifestyles, sports, art and surfing at the end of the 60s era. The film blends surfing footage with images of rock concerts in Golden Gate Park, yoga exercises and skiing with splashes of psychedelia thrown in. Fred’s artistic sensibilities and intimate knowledge of surfing and the blossoming intellectual movement are brought together in somewhat of a period piece that does an excellent job of capturing the feeling of the time. Local Pedro Point surfer Dick Keating is featured in much of the surfing footage, where he captured performing innovative maneuvers that few have repeated since.
