  • Illuminated Hours: The Early Cinema of Nathaniel Dorsky and Jerome Hiler

    Nathaniel Dorsky and Jerome Hiler met in 1964 at the premiere of Dorsky’s first film, Ingreen. This encounter marked the beginning of a shared life and a series of creative exchanges. Covering a span of over forty years, this book brings together interviews, writings, and documents related to the 16mm films made by the two filmmakers in New York, at the country house in New Jersey where they lived in the late 1960s, and in San Francisco, where they moved in 1971 and currently reside.

  • Richard Kerr: Field Trips

    Canadian artist-filmmaker Richard Kerr was raised in a north-south family near the American border. From a young age he was preoccupied with the vision of empire reflected in American mass culture and sport. As he matured as a filmmaker, Kerr began to turn his attention increasingly to America as a subject, undertaking road trips through the American southwest, studying the spirit of a landscape made for cinema.

    The Red Thread is the definitive work on Larry Gottheim, a key figure in the history of American experimental film.

  • Worlds: Selected Works by Ben Rivers

    The British artist and filmmaker Ben Rivers is internationally renowned for creating a body of bold experimental docufictions that search for an escape from modern society. Rivers shoots in various film formats and film stocks, often using an old Bolex wind-up camera, and self-processes the films, giving the appearance of found, aged or archival footage.

    Breaking the conventional rules of documentary filmmaking, Rivers' films are evocative and sensory, and are an entirely unique personal vision.

  • Expanded Nature - Écologies du Cinéma Expérimental (French edition)

    If it can be said that experimental filmmakers are "expanding" the artistic field through an exploration of the potencies, modes of dissemination, or even performance of the moving image, in the Anthropocene age, these practices hope for another kind of expansion: to expand our experience of nature.
