Australasian Journal of Ameerican Studies Review of 'Shirley Clarke, Thinking through Movement'

Press/Media: Research

Description

"Shirley Clarke: Thinking Through Movement is ... an important contribution to film studies because it does the groundwork of highlighting her significance in film history and her reshaping of multiple modes of film practice. The book is equally significant for its theorizing of Clarke’s authorship role as distributed and relational."

    DescriptionIn this carefully researched book, Pearlman enacts the kind of
    responsiveness she applauds in Clarke’s own practice, bringing together collectivity, relationality, and sociality (ways of being, feeling, living in community, power relations) with a close reading of the style and practice of an individual filmmaker.
