Description

The collected writings of artist and filmmaker Hollis Frampton present a unique and provocative discourse on the intersection of art and technology in the 1960s and 1970s. This collection brings together Frampton's critical essays, rare additional material, and previously unpublished works, offering a comprehensive understanding of his approach to photography, film, and video. Frampton's writings range widely over the visual arts, encompassing critically acclaimed essays on Edward Weston and Eadweard Muybridge, as well as appraisals of contemporary photographers. The collection also includes scripts, textual material, and scores for his films, writings on video that prefigure the digital arts, and a dialogue with Carl Andre. This diverse range of works showcases Frampton's innovative and inventive approach to art and technology. This collection replaces the long-unavailable Circles of Confusion, published in 1983, and provides a valuable insight into the development of the camera arts and the intellectual discourse surrounding them.
