MFJ “35th Anniversary” Vol. 1 & 2 (Nos. 58 & 59)

Fall 2013 and Spring 2014

 

To celebrate MFJ’s 35th anniversary, we published two complementary issues celebrating the journal since 1978.

With this bundle, you will receive both volumes at a discount price.

The bundle contains:

MFJ 58 “The Magazine of Artists’ Cinema Since 1978” – 35th Anniversary, Vol.1
To celebrate the anniversary, we contacted experts in the field with a deliberately amorphous call for papers, asking simply for a consideration of some aspect of the artists’ cinema during the 35 years of the journal’s publication.

MFJ 59 “Since ’78 and Beyond” – 35th Anniversary, Vol.2
This issue, the 35th anniversary edition Volume 2, maps out a few aspects of this mercurial landscape, from the late 1970s’ re-emergent interest in narrative and political ideologies, through the mid-1990s eruption of gallery and museum installations, to recent developments in exhibition policies and politics, with the fluctuating cinephilia of moving image artists of the last 35 years a theme that appears with varying intensity throughout the period.
