Global Art Cinema: New Theories and Histories
Karl Schoonover
A collection of new essays on films from a range of geopolitical locations, Global Art Cinema reassesses the field of art cinema in light of 1) a flourishing international cinema and 2) growing scholarly interest in the category of art cinema and developments within world film culture. The editors have assembled a stimulating group of essays that cover the major issues in global art cinema, including the trend toward both increasing local autonomy andincreasing globalization; new theorizations of the film image; revised industrial, legal, and exhibition histories; and the renewed debates about national, postcolonial, and regional cinema cultures. The book brings together a diverse group of authors, including reigning authorities and rising stars, in a timelyconversation that reaffirms the study of art cinema as a relevant, provocative, and even fundamental undertaking.
