About the Item
Moving Pictures American Art and Early Film 1880-1910 with DVD by Nancy Mathew. Hudson Hills Press, 2005. Williams College Museum of Art, Williamstown, Massachusetts and Reynolda House Museum, Winston-Salem, NC. 1st Ed paperback. 192 pages, with color and b/w illustrations and essays by: Marta Braun, Ellery Foutch, Tom Guning, Erica Hirshler, Antonia Lant, Michael Leja, Katherine Manthorne, Lucy Oakley, Dana Pilson, Joyce Schiller, Marc Simpson, and Dan Streible. The exhibition explores the relationship between American art and the new medium of film at the beginning of the 20th century. It installs art and film side by side, examining the complex relationship between these two media at the turn of the last century. The experiments of motion photographers of the 1880s, such as Eadward Muybridge and Etienne Jules Marey, were eagerly studied by American artists and were inspired in turn by them. When technology was perfected to show the photographs in motion in the 1890s, these early films quite naturally echoed established currents in American art. By 1900, the influence was going both ways, with American painting echoing the new view of the world offered by moving pictures. The dynamic relationship between American art and early film not only resulted in new subjects but also new poses, facial expressions, and constructions of space, challenging old assumptions about what was real. “Both paintings and films emphasize movement,” says Curator Nancy Mowll Mathews, “which was crucial to the illusion of lifelikeness in both media. In recreating the modern experience of fragmentation and spectacle both art and film explore issues of human perception and the understanding of reality that were part of the intellectual climate of their day.” With the original, unused DVD.
