Albert Falzon.........a purity of vision. Albert Falzon, film-maker, has always appreciated the power of music in his films. His inaugural feature film Morning of the Earth was the first Australian film to receive a gold record for album sales. His entry in the Cannes Film Festival collaboration with George Greenough Crystal Voyager featured music from Pink Floyd, Talking Heads and, Brian Eno accompanied an Indian Saddhu's pilgrimage in Same as it ever Was. Alby Falzon's career in film making was a natural progression from international still photography, and later combined with magazine publishing,
in Australia, Israel and the island of Bali in Indonesia. He was co-founder and publisher of the surfing newspaper Tracks. His perceptive and sensitive photographic eye almost suggests that he was born with a camera, and that camera has captured some of the most beautiful, lifting and influential moments in surfing. |
