Description: Avant Garde film is almost indefinable. it is in a constant state of change and redefinition. In this book A.L. Rees tracks the movement of the film agent grade between, on the one hand, the cinema, and, on the other hand, modern art (with its postmodern coda). But he also reconstitutes the film avant-garde as an independent form of art practice with its own internal logic and aesthetic discourse.
