*Celluloid* presents the work and ideas of Tacita Dean, João Maria Gusmão & Pedro Paiva, Rosa Barba and Sandra Gibson & Luis Recorder - four influential contemporary artists and duos who, in defiance of the digital mainstream, have chosen to work with analogue film material. Using 16mm or 35mm film, these artists create extraordinary, layered film installations and sculptures that explore the characteristics of celluloid and the accompanying cinematic apparatus. They celebrate the unsurpassed power of the projected image, celluloid's tactile and visual richness and colour nuances, and the machinery that constitutes the cinematic experience.

This richly illustrated book also includes contributions by internationally renowned experts, who consider the meaning of analogue film in the work of these artists in relation to the history of experimental film, the use of analogue film in an era of abundant digital imagery, the magic of 16mm and 35mm film, strips of celluloid, loopers and projectors.

In this beautifully written and deeply researched study, Hannah Frank provides an original way to understand American animated cartoons from the Golden Age of animation (1920-1960). In the pre-digital age of the twentieth century, the making of cartoons was mechanized and standardized: thousands of drawings were inked and painted onto individual transparent celluloid sheets (called "cels") and then photographed in succession, a labor-intensive process that was divided across scores of artists and technicians. In order to see the art, labor, and technology of cel animation, Frank slows cartoons down to look frame by frame, finding hitherto unseen aspects of the animated image. What emerges is both a methodology and a highly original account of an art formed on the assembly line.
