  • Cinéma experimental: Abécédaire pour une contre-culture

    By on

    This month, publisher Éditions Yellow Now releases a 344-page book by French critic Raphaël Bassan on experimental cinema. This edition will contain texts written between 1977 and 2013 in newspapers like Libération, magazines like La Revue du Cinema and others in Encyclopædia Universalis and many others. Cinéma experimental: Abécédaire pour une contre-culture takes the form of an “alphabet book” but all entries are connected one with another trying to build a kind of a history of experimental cinema, with its international pioneers like Hans Richter, Walter Ruttmann, Germaine Dulac, Len Lye; the American masters like Maya Deren, Kenneth Anger, Jonas Mekas; some international contemporary figures: Frans Zwartjes, Steven Dwoskin, Werner Nekes; and featuring a huge sample of French Experimental filmmakers: Jean Genet, Isidore Isou, Maurice Lemaître, Marcel Hanoun, Adolfo Arrieta, Stéphane Martin, Maria Klonaris & Katerina Thomadaki, Teo Hernandez, Carole Arcega, Frederique Devaux, Nicolas Rey…, from the fifties until today.

La edición estará disponible tanto en DVD (dos discos, 10 de abril) como en blu-ray (un disco, 9 de abril), lo que representa una grata sorpresa, ya que la ediciñon en blu-ray parecía descartada. La lista de obras incluídas, todas ellas restauradas en alta definición, se divide en tres partes: sus primeros filmes y dos selecciones de los ciclos Hapax Legomena y Magellan. De manera similar a sus ediciones de Brakhage, determinadas películas vendrán introducidas por un comentario en audio o teseñas de Frampton. Los contenidos extra incluyen una entrevista de 1978, la performance A Lecture (1968), con la voz de Michael Snow, y una selección de fotografías de su serie xerográfica By Any Other Name. Los DVDs/Blu-ray se acompañan de un libreto con introducción de Ed Halter y textos sobre los filmes por Ken Eisenstein, Bruce Jenkins y Michael Zryd.
