The Cremaster Cycle (1994-2002) è una serie di cinque film scritti, diretti e interpretati dal genio visionario di Matthew Barney, apparsi in volontario disordine cronologico, prodotti dalla Barbara Gladstone Gallery e dal Guggenheim Museum di New York. Il risultato è un'epopea surreale, ricca di riferimenti cinematografici e letterari (da Carpenter a Poe, da Kubrick a Lovecraft, a Cronenberg) dove pezzi di storie si intrecciano e si sfiorano, dando vita ad una narrazione dai risvolti onirici e carica di immagini ambigue e misteriosamente allegoriche. Un orgia di immagini di stupefacente bellezza, un viaggio epico nell'inconscio, per esplorare le vie del desiderio e della sessualità. Un evento imperdibile che ha segnato la scena artistica contemporanea mondiale. Il Cremaster Cycle è un arcipelago di stimolazioni visive, dove ognuno dei cinque film, che lo compone, funziona da isola in cui si alternano personaggi mitologici ed enigmatici, nonché paesaggi urbani e naturali, che raccontano le vicende di un viaggio nell'universo della cultura americana, creativa e distruttiva. Siccome Cremaster è il muscolo che nei testicoli regola, in relazione alla temperatura e all'eccitazione, la reazione dei genitali maschili, l'insieme delle storie narrate riguarda l'erezione di edifici simbolici e fallici come il ChrysIer Building o la lotta tra satiri, o la penetrazione nel grembo del Guggenheim Museum, o la mutazione e l'androginia sessuale che riguardano la storia della fondazione di ogni città nova o New York . Matthew Barney (San Francisco, 25 marzo 1967) è un artista, regista e scultore statunitense.
