MFJ 63 “Exchanges & Convergences”

Spring 2016

 

This issue of the Millennium Film Journal opens with an appreciation of getting lost. Lucy Reynolds describes wandering through the serpentine alleys of Venice in search of a pattern in the saturation of artists’ moving image works in the 2015 Biennale. This issue continues by noting – without belaboring – the strange
parallels between Jenni Olson’s affirmation of nostalgia, Lee’s attunement to memory and the uncanny, and de Bruyn’s investment in traumatic return. Such convergences and exchanges proliferate between these and other texts in this issue. Perhaps the best way to approach them is to lose one’s way among the pleasures of theory, criticism, and analysis put forward in these pages by artists and writers, in a time when theory and practice are themselves increasingly merged and interwoven.
