In this bold and original work, A.L. Rees identifies three key terms - 'field', 'frame' and 'interval' and charts their use by filmmakers and theorists such as Dziga Vertov, Sergei Eisenstein, Bruce Baillie, Maya Deren, Malcolm Le Grice and Werner Nekes, from the 1920s through to the present day. A seminal voice in film culture, Rees left the incomplete manuscript for this book on his death, and Simon Payne has subsequently carefully prepared the book for publication. \u003ci\u003eFields of View\u003c\/i\u003e is an important work that establishes a unique perspective on experimental film.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA.L.
