Frank Films

The Film and Video Work of Robert Frank

Ocena książki

Więcej o książce

This book fills a long overdue gap by providing a comprehensive overview of Robert Frank's more than 25 films and videos, some of them classics of the New American Cinema of the 1950s and 60s, many of them virtually unknown and barely seen. Frank Films offers a visually unique approach to the work: at Frank's request, only new stills taken from the original films and videos were used as illustrations. A number of in-depth essays discuss the history and aesthetics of Frank's moving pictures, while shorter texts by various authors examine each film and video individually. One of the greatest and most restless artists working today, Frank has always worked in a place untouched by fashions and schools, his art literally growing out of and for itself. Frank Films is required reading for everyone interested in Robert Frank and the history of American avant-garde film.
