        Post War Avant Grade Moving Image : 1 Conceptualism         

During this lecture we had watched a few short films from the 90s and then analysed them.

these were the few films we had watched:

Dir : Spencer Tracy, Film:Adams Rib (1949) Genre: Romcom

My opinion - Illusion of reality: war post trauma, cinema is a way of escapism 60s start to get interesting.

Andy Warhol- Screen Test Film- Edie Sedgwick is the subject in the test.

Andy Warhol- State Building

Empire Film above is a 16mm film, a still positioned film, no edits, no cuts used.

Bruce Nauman- film called Walking in an Exggarated Manner, an 16mm film 1967-68

Naumans film is weird, different and dont understand it and slow.

Film- Hand Catching Lead by Richard Serra. 1971

Berlin Horse- Malcolm Le Grice1970. used chemicals dyd on the film activated by light.

this last video is my Marcel Broodthaers 1974, considered the father of conceptual art.
