Cinema and Painting: How Art Is Used in Film by Angela Dalle Vacche (English) Pa

Description: Cinema and Painting by Angela Dalle Vacche Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description How the use of pictorial sources in film enables eight filmmakers to comment on the interplay between the arts, on the dialectic of word and image, on the relationship between artistic creativity and sexual difference, and on the tension between tradition Publisher Description The visual image is the common denominator of cinema and painting, and indeed many filmmakers have used the imagery of paintings to shape or enrich the meaning of their films. In this discerning new approach to cinema studies, Angela Dalle Vacche discusses how the use of pictorial sources in film enables eight filmmakers to comment on the interplay between the arts, on the dialectic of word and image, on the relationship between artistic creativity and sexual difference, and on the tension between tradition and modernity.Specifically, Dalle Vacche explores Jean-Luc Godards iconophobia (Pierrot Le Fou) and Andrei Tarkovskys iconophilia (Andrei Rubleov), Kenji Mizoguchis split allegiances between East and West (Five Women around Utamaro), Michelangelo Antonionis melodramatic sensibility (Red Desert), Eric Rohmers project to convey interiority through images (The Marquise of O), F. W. Murnaus debt to Romantic landscape painting (Nosferatu), Vincente Minnellis affinities with American Abstract Expressionism (An American in Paris), and Alain Cavaliers use of still life and the close-up to explore the realms of mysticism and femininity (Therese).While addressing issues of influence and intentionality, Dalle Vacche concludes that intertextuality is central to an appreciation of the dialogical nature of the filmic medium, which, in appropriating or rejecting art history, defines itself in relation to national traditions and broadly shared visual cultures.
