Materialist Film

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A polemical introduction to the avant-garde and experimental in film (including making and viewing), this book is a highly original, thought-provoking book, originally published in 1989. The short chapters work through a series of concepts which will enable the reader to deal imaginatively with the contradictory issues produced by experimental film - explored in conjunction with specific films by Andy Warhol, Malcolm LeGrice, Lis Rhodes, Jean-Luc Goddard, Rose Lowder, Kurt Kren, and others.
