How to read these reformulations of the cinematic medium - and their critique of what it is and has been? In \u003ci\u003eTheorizing Cinema Through Contemporary Art: Expanding Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e, leading film theorists consider artworks that incorporate, restage, and re-present cinema's configuration of the key categories of space, experience, presence\/absence, production and consumption, technology, myth, perception, event, and temporality, so interrogating the creation, appraisal, and evolution of film theory as channeled through contemporary art. This book takes film theory as a blueprint for the moving image, and juxtaposes it with artworks that render cinema as a material object. In the process, it unfolds a complex relationship between a theory and a practice that have commonly been seen as virtually incompatible, renewing our understanding of each and, more to the point, their interactions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations \u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments \u003cbr\u003eForeword: Courtesy of the Artists, by Sandra Gibson + Luis Recoder \u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: On Cinema Expanding, by Jill Murphy and Laura Rascaroli \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart One: Materialities \u003cbr\u003e1.
