{"product_id":"art-in-the-cinema","title":"Art in the Cinema","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.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54226282873176,"sku":"9781350357518","price":32.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781350357518_4b1ff7e0-5139-4a28-90b5-558c153d93c4.jpg?v=1770278451","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/art-in-the-cinema","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
