MFJ “Travel” Nos. 73, 75, & 76 Bundle
With this bundle, you will receive three recent MFJ volumes handpicked by our senior editor Grahame Weinbren.
The bundle contains:
MFJ 73 “everywhere”
This issue focuses on novel ways of understanding the world through the moving image and offers their readers a fresh insight into the very basis of cinematic experience. Highlights include Chris Dymond’s article on the limitations of photographic and moving image technologies for representing the full extent of reality, Sarah Friedland’s free-ranging conversation with the curators of three recent exhibitions addressing Speculative Realism, Andrzej Jachimczyk’s late night explorations of streaming cinema, and more.
MFJ 75 “Boundaries”
Boundaries—they appear everywhere we look. What can be said about the oppositions of form and content, subject and visual object, that structure the field of the moving image? And what about the restricted category of cinema itself, or within it the use of critical designations like artists’ moving image or experimental cinema?
MFJ 76 “Worlds”
Central to Millennium Film Journal 76 is a collection of texts commissioned by guest editor Barbara London, the founder of the Video-Media Exhibition and Collection Programs of the New York Museum of Modern Art. Her dossier, “Focal Points”, provides an impression of political and artistic worlds beyond US- and Eurocentric institutions and movements. Throughout the issue, authors are attentive to the way film and filmmakers engage with Worlds: those of media culture, geo-political hotspots (Hong Kong), and more generally the political-cultural and post-colonial linguistic formations (Singapore) of the various countries and cities in which these artists operate.
