A key figure in the Toronto New Wave of the 1980s, Peter Mettler
is one of the most intriguing and audacious filmmakers in English
Canada, known not only for his work as a director but also as a
cinematographer and editor. His films are distinguished by an
innovative approach to the medium, regardless of genre, bridging
the gap between experimental, narrative, personal essay, and
documentary. All of his work is visually stunning, particularly the
two films he is best known for: Picture of Light and Gambling, Gods
and LSD. Mettler is also an accomplished photographer and a pioneer
in multimedia work. His live visual mixing performances are
groundbreaking and legendary, and he has long been considered a
leader in this field.
In Peter Mettler, Jerry White focuses on Mettler s career as a
director, emphasizing the global nature of his films. White also
discusses Mettler s groundbreaking explorations in the field of
visual mixing and his work as a still photographer and
cinematographer. The book is richly illustrated with examples of
Mettler s work."
