Synopsis
Avante-garde film is in a constant state of change and redefinition. In this history, A.L. Rees tracks the movement of the avante-garde film between, on the one hand, the cinema, and, on the other hand, modern art (with its postmodern coda). He also reconstitutes the avante-garde film as an independent form of art practice with its own internal logic and aesthetic discourse. This history of avante-garde film and video ranges from Cezanne and dada, via Cocteau, Brakhage and Le Grice, to the new wave of British video artists in the 1990s.

About the Author
A.L. Rees was Head of the Time-Based Media course at Maidstone College of Art from 1988 – 1995 and then Research Tutor at the Royal College of Art until 2014. At various times he was the chair of the Arts Council's artists' film and video committee, and an adviser on experimental film to the British Film Institute, Tate, the Arts and Humanities Research Council and Channel 4. His book A History of Experimental Film and Video (BFI, 1999/2011) remains a key text, supplemented by the wide range of essays he wrote for journals and books on film and art.
