Cinephilia and History, or The Wind in the Trees

Keathley, Christian

Beskrivning:

Ill w b/w stills. Cinephiles have regularly fetishized contingent, marginal details in the motion picture image: the gesture of a hand, the wind in the trees. Christian Keathley demonstrates that the spectatorial tendency that produces such cinematic encounters - a viewing practice marked by a drift in visual attention away from the primary visual elements on display - in fact has clear links to the origins of film as defined by André Bazin, Roland Barthes and others. Keathley explores the implications of this ontology and proposes the "cinephiliac anecdote" as a new type of criticism, a method of historical writing that both imitates and extends the experience of these fugitive moments.
