Avant-garde film is almost indefinable. It is in a constant state
of change and redefinition. In his highly-acclaimed history of
experimental film, A.L. Rees tracks the movement of the film
avant-garde between the cinema and modern art (with its postmodern
coda). But he also reconstitutes the film avant-garde as an
independent form of art practice with its own internal logic and
aesthetic discourse. In this revised and updated edition, Rees
introduces experimental film and video to new readers interested in
the wider cinema, as well as offering a guide to enthusiasts of
avant-garde film and new media arts. Ranging from Cezanne and Dada,
via Cocteau, Brakhage and Le Grice, to the new wave of British film
and video artists from the 1990s to the present day, this expansive
study situates avant-garde film between the cinema and the gallery,
with many links to sonic as well as visual arts. The new edition
includes a review of current scholarship in avant-garde film
history and includes updated reading and viewing lists. It also
features a new introduction and concluding chapter, which assess
the rise of video projection in the gallery since the millennium,
and describe new work by the latest generation of experimental
film-makers. The new edition is richly illustrated with images of
the art works discussed.
