This volume on avant-garde film has emerged as part of a wider
reassessment of 20th century avant-garde art, literature and film
carried out in the framework of a research project at the
University of Edinburgh. It paves the way for a fresh assessment of
avant-garde film and develops its theory as an integral part of a
newly defined conception of the avant-garde as a whole, by closing
the gap between theoretical approaches towards the avant-garde as
defined on the basis of art and literature on the one hand and
avant-garde cinema on the other. It gathers contributions by the
most esteemed scholars in the field of avant-garde studies relating
to the "classical" avant-garde cinema of the 1920s, to new trends
emerging in the 1950s and 1960s and to the impact that innovative
technologies have recently had on the further development of
avant-garde and experimental film. The contributions reflect the
broad range of different moving-image media that make up what we
refer to today simply as "film," at the same time as reconsidering
the applicability of the label "avant-garde," to offer a
comprehensive and updated framework that will prove invaluable to
scholars of both Moving Image Studies and Art History disciplines.
