Description

Louise Bourque's films have left an indelible mark on Canadian experimental cinema since 1989. This collection of essays, interviews, ephemera, and personal reflections charts her life and work, exploring the physical manipulation of emulsion and the imprinting of memory and trauma onto film. Contributors to this book include a range of established voices in the field, each bringing their own perspective on Bourque's influence and legacy. From artists working with abstract imagery to those dealing with memorial processes, Bourque's aesthetics have had a lasting impact on contemporary filmmakers. Through its diverse range of contributors and approaches, Imprints offers a nuanced understanding of Louise Bourque's work and its continued relevance in the world of experimental cinema.
