| Summary |
Le Grice has been writing about experimental cinema and digital art since the late '60s. This is a collection of his most notable essays, shedding light on the work of other artists and film-makers at a period when artists' film was at the centre of fierce and polemical debate about the nature of avant-garde and future of radical film |
