This is the first book in English devoted to its historical and aesthetic evolution. The editor's comprehensive introductory essay offers a detailed overview of avant-garde filmmaking in Austria, followed by twenty contributions from international film scholars examining the work of individual filmmakers. Beginning with the pioneers of independent cinema in post-war Austria, the book covers more than 60 years of subversive film history: from the revolutionary metric films of Peter Kubelka in the 1950s to the rapid actionist films of Kurt Kren in the 1960s and the temporal studies that followed, from the feminist cinema of Valie Export to the alternative ethnographic explorations of Lisl Ponger, from the exhilarating works of Martin Arnold and Peter Tscherkassky using found footage to the recent generation of younger artists such as Michaela Grill and Siegfried Fruhauf, whose innovative work also incorporates digital technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eContributors include Steve Anker, Steve Bates, Livio Belloï, Christa Blümlinger, Nicole Brenez, Stefan Grissemann, Christoph Huber, Adrian Martin, Maya McKechneay, Maureen Turim, Norbert Pfaffenbichler, Andréa Picard, Barbara Pichler, Bert Rebhandl, Jonathan Rosenbaum, Hans Scheugl, and the editor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Tscherkassky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56788867711307,"sku":"SQ8095235","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/3034\/9643\/files\/unframed_tscherkassky_livre_recto.webp?v=1773411371","url":"https:\/\/re-voir.com\/en\/products\/film-unframed-a-history-of-austrian-avant-garde-cinema","provider":"Re:Voir","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
