Dreams of Chaos, Visions of Order: Understanding the American Avant-garde Cinema by James Peterson (Paperback, 2000)

About this product

About this product

Product Information

In spite of the difficulty of most American avant-garde films, one can read volumes and find almost no mention of how to view these films. Dreams of Chaos, Visions of Order addresses precisely this question: how--and to what extent--can viewers make sense of American avant-garde films? It is a controversial book that examines the implicit assumptions of traditional scholarship, advocates on alternative to dominant approaches to the avant-garde cinema, and questions some long-standing cliches about the history of the avant-garde.
