The appearance of Albert Bierstadt's landscape Mountain Scene (1880 - 90) in both The Age of Innocence (1993) and The Hunger Games (2012) serves as the basis for Mathis Gasser's Grasshopper (Mountain Scene)(2015 - 16), in which he reproduces the original painting twice and hangs the pair beside a screen playing footage from the 2015 - 16 TV adaptation of Philip K. Dick's Man in the High Castle, a series that deals with the role of cultural artefacts in imagining counterfactual histories. (swissinstitute.net)
