Céline Sciamma is the most visible and important feminist, and lesbian, director in contemporary international filmmaking. Her fourth feature, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, competed for the Palme d'Or at Cannes in 2019, and intervened directly in debates about the female gaze, sexuality, and specifically how to look at and make a portrait of young women. In her approach to female, non-binary and queer identities, she has focused on the need for agency, binding this imperative into her aesthetic choices and modes of filmmaking. This is the first book-length study of Sciamma's films, focusing on the relationship of her work to the visual arts, and exploring the relevance of feminist theory to her unique perspective.

Joseph Cornell is one of the most significant American artists of the twentieth century. His work is highly visible in the the world's most prestigious galleries, including the Tate Modern and MOMA. His famous boxes and his collage work have been admired and widely studied.However, Cornell also produced an extraordinary body of film work, a serious contribution to 20th-century avant-garde cinema, and this has been much less examined.In this book, Michael Piggott makes the case for the significance of Joseph Cornell's films. This is an important contribution to our knowledge of twentieth century culture for scholars and students of film and art history and American studies and for all those interested in pop culture, celebrity and fandom.

Annette Michelson's contributions to art and film criticism over the last three decades have been unparalleled. This volume honors her unique legacy with original essays by some of the many scholars who have been influenced by her work. Some continue her efforts to develop theoretical frameworks for understanding modernist art, while others practice her form of interdisciplinary criticism in relation to avant-garde and modernist art works and artists. Still others investigate and evaluate Michelson's work itself. All in some way pay homage to her extraordinary contribution.

Cinéma et peinture, cinéma et musique, cinéma et architecture… La peinture s’est longtemps définie par sa capacité sans égale à ressembler et, quand la photo a semblé lui ravir ce privilège, à regarder ou, plutôt, à montrer le travail du regard. C’est ainsi la rencontre entre peinture et photo qui a permis d’enrichir leurs territoires respectifs. De même, les théoriciens et les prescripteurs du cinéma ont tour à tour revendiqué des fonctions inspirées par (ou contre) d’autres arts. La musique, par exemple, peine un peu à « ressembler » mais elle a une étonnante aptitude à s’infiltrer dans toutes les fonctions prêtées aux arts. L’architecture, après son évidente fonction utilitaire, semble avoir de faibles taux de ressemblance et de référence, mais elle témoigne souvent d’une forte intention, d’un geste créateur qui s’affirme. Et ainsi de suite… Toutes ces rencontres méritaient bien un colloque dans un des lieux les plus propices qui soient : Urbino. On y visite la maison natale de Raphaël. On y a trituré de nombreux films pour essayer d’éclairer un peu plus les relations entre le cinéma et les autres arts. Car il faut se féliciter, après Bazin, de ce que le cinéma est non seulement « impur » mais surtout merveilleusement accueillant.

Many recent works of contemporary art, performance, and film turn a spotlight on sleep, wresting it from the hidden, private spaces to which it is commonly relegated. At the Edges of Sleep considers sleep in film and moving image art as both a subject matter to explore onscreen and a state to induce in the audience. Far from negating action or meaning, sleep extends into new territories as it designates ways of existing in the world, in relation to people, places, and the past. Defined positively, sleep also expands our understanding of reception beyond the binary of concentration and distraction. These possibilities converge in the work of Thai filmmaker and artist Apichatpong Weerasethakul, who has explored the subject of sleep systematically throughout his career. In examining Apichatpong’s work, Jean Ma brings together an array of interlocutors—from Freud to Proust, George Méliès to Tsai Ming-liang, Weegee to Warhol—to rethink moving images through the lens of sleep. Ma exposes an affinity between cinema, spectatorship, and sleep that dates to the earliest years of filmmaking, and sheds light upon the shifting cultural valences of sleep in the present moment.
