{"product_id":"art-in-the-cinema-steven-jacobs-9781350357518","title":"Art in the Cinema: The Mid-Century Art Documentary","description":"In the 1940s and 1950s, hundreds of art documentaries were produced, many of them being highly personal, poetic, reflexive and experimental films that offer a thrilling cinematic experience. With the exception of Alain Resnais's \u003ci\u003eVan Gogh\u003c\/i\u003e (1948), Henri-Georges Clouzot's \u003ci\u003eLe Mystère Picasso\u003c\/i\u003e (1956) and a few others, most of them have received only scant scholarly attention. This book aims to rectify this situation by discussing the most lyrical, experimental and influential post-war art documentaries, connecting them to contemporaneous museological developments and Euro-American cultural and political relationships. With contributors with expertise across art history and film studies, \u003ci\u003eArt in the Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e draws attention to film projects by André Bazin, Ilya Bolotowsky, Paul Haesaerts, Carlo Ragghianti, John Read, Dudley Shaw Aston, Henri Storck and Willard Van Dyke among others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Jacobs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350357510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350357518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d","brand":"Steven Jacobs","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077919600895,"sku":"9781350357518","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c23264b6-d88c-4bc9-824a-eb8d0f5b7517.jpg?v=1685472510","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/art-in-the-cinema-steven-jacobs-9781350357518","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
