filmic space

No other director has so consistently exemplified Bazin's quasi-religious obsession with the cinematic image as an imprint of reality, and with filmic space as a spiritual continuum.

What elevated Griffith above his fellow technicians was that his sense of what a camera should record and his appreciation that new dimensions of filmic space could be appropriated were given meaning by their constant reference to central themes of American life.

Artists such as Paul McCarthy, Jason Rhoades, Rodney Graham, Peter Fischli and David Weiss, and Stan Douglas are represented in the collection by large format works, including elaborate installations as well as complex filmic spaces.

António Reis lectioned at the Portuguese National Film School classes such as Filmic Space, in 1977, and later Film Analysis, History of Image, Direction of Actors and Introduction to the Study of Image.
