Overview
The Cremaster Cycle is an art project consisting of five feature length films, together with related sculptures, photographs, drawings, and artist's books; it is the best-known work of American visual artist and filmmaker Matthew Barney. The Cremaster Cycle was made over a period of eight years (1994–2002) and culminated in a major museum exhibition organized by Nancy Spector of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City, which traveled to the Museum Ludwig in Cologne and the Musée d'art Moderne in Paris from 2002-03. Barney's longtime collaborator Jonathan Bepler composed and arranged the soundtracks for the films.

CREMASTER 4 (1994) adheres most closely to the project's biological model. This penultimate episode describes the system's onward rush toward descension despite its resistance to division.

《悬丝1》是一部在覆盖着蓝色草皮的球场上呈现的音乐剧。两个古德伊尔软式飞船像飞艇一样漂浮在舞台上，通过电视直播体育赛事。每个舱室内部都摆放着一张铺着白色桌布的桌子，由一个抽象的雕塑所装饰。唯一的声音是柔软的环境音乐，暗示着发动机的声音。在球场上的太空中，一群空姐和艳舞女郎正完成复杂的舞蹈和动作。

《悬丝5》在布达佩斯拍摄，渲染出垂死的浪漫氛围——由阴森的坟墓、训练有素的鸽子、戏水的仙女和布达佩斯国家歌剧院的管线乐队等零碎元素所营造。此外，一位匈牙利女高音歌唱家的歌剧独白贯穿全片，进一步衬托出浪漫的气氛。

CREMASTER 3 (2002) is set in New York City and narrates the construction of the Chrysler Building, which is in itself a character - host to inner, antagonistic forces at play for access to the process of (spiritual) transcendence. These factions find form in the struggle between Hiram Abiff or the Architect ...
