À propos de l'auteur :
Kathryn Elder is film and video librarian at York University, Toronto, and editor of The Films of Joyce Wieland, also published by Cinematheque Ontario.
Revue de Presse:
"Like its subject, a major Canadian painter and filmmaker whose nine-year fight against leukemia claimed him at 47, this superb anthology is indispensable. It proves Stan Brakhage's claim that Chambers' minute film canon, five shorts and a feature, changed the whole history of film, despite their neglect. Recollections by Chambers' associates, culminating in Anne Michaels' poem, revive his character. Even the critical writing here shows the poetry and emotion of a felt idea. For Sarah Milroy, the tragic stoicism in both Chambers' vision and technical innovation puts the viewer on a knife-edge between contentment and tragedy. Elder revives Chambers' own manifesto and early introductions to specific works, including seminal pieces by Deborah Magidson, Greg Curnoe, Stan Brakhage, and Ross Woodman, who describes Chambers and his art as constricted energy waiting to explode. Among the fine new offerings, Michael Zyrd examines hybrid as a political essay on the Vietnam war and Bruce Elder approaches Chambers surrealism through Dali's photographic realism. The five takes on The Hart of London, ranging from filmmaker Brakhage's to academic Bart Testa's, are insightful and eloquent. With an excellent annotated bibliography, this is a worthy addition to the Cinematheque Ontario Monograph series. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All readers." ―M. Yacowar, University of Calgary, 2003jul CHOICE
