More about the book

Exploring the concept of durational cinema, this book distinguishes it from slow cinema and traces its evolution through three key waves: the 1960s New York avant-garde, post-1968 European art cinema, and the emergence of international cinema in gallery spaces and festivals since the 1990s. It examines notable filmmakers like Andy Warhol and Chantal Akerman, highlighting the genre's minimalism and diverse thematic focus, including the Holocaust and marginalized experiences. The book emphasizes the varied interpretations and styles within durational cinema, showcasing its rich complexity.
