As the cinematic experience becomes subsumed into today's
ubiquitous technologies of seeing, contemporary artworks lift the
cinematic out of the immateriality of the film screen and separate
it into its physical components within the gallery space. How to
read these reformulations of the cinematic medium - and their
critique of what it is and has been? In Theorizing Cinema Through
Contemporary Art: Expanding Cinema, leading film theorists consider
artworks that incorporate, restage, and re-present cinema's
configuration of the key categories of space, experience,
presence/absence, production and consumption, technology, myth,
perception, event, and temporality, so interrogating the creation,
appraisal, and evolution of film theory as channeled through
contemporary art. This book takes film theory as a blueprint for
the moving image, and juxtaposes it with artworks that render
cinema as a material object. In the process, it unfolds a complex
relationship between a theory and a practice that have commonly
been seen as virtually incompatible, renewing our understanding of
each and, more to the point, their interactions.
