Shuji Terayama

[Christine Marran]

Steven Clark is near completion of a dissertation on Terayama Shuji, 
some of which is devoted to TS's films.  He wrote the Farewell to the 
Ark blurb for the Vienna festival for those of you who read that and may 
have more detailed publications elsewhere.  I am not sure if Steve is on 
our list so I will forward, Andrew, your email address to him...

>I had the pleasure of visiting the Terayama museum in Misawa once, I
>highly recommend anyone to go there. It's incredibly out of the way, but
>worth it.
