This collection, curated by Anthology Film Archive’s Bruce Posner and produced for home video by David Shepard, presents us with an abundance of experimental films from the period 1894-1941, with the vast majority of them never available before for home viewing. While these films differ wildly from each other, they have one thing in common: they’re all experiments in one way or another, meant or designed to broaden the conception of what cinema can be or do. ‘Unseen Cinema’ contains a staggering total over 155 films (and a total running time of almost 19 hours) which are spread over 7 discs. Each disc has its own theme or subject matter, although there is quite some overlap, simply because any attempt at such categorization is bound to fail.
Disc 1: The Mechanized Eye
Experiments in Technique and Form
The dynamic qualities of motion pictures are explored by cameramen and filmmakers through novel experiments in technique and form. Early cinematographers James White, "Billy" Bitzer, and Frederick Armitage display experimental shooting styles that wowed audiences. Other independent companies further image manipulation through creative staging, editing, and printing, such as a stunning three-screen film that predates Gance's Napoleon. Experiments by photographer Walker Evans, painter Emlen Etting, musician Jerome Hill, and the film collectives Nykino and Artkino record the world in a continual process of flux. A most extreme approach is realized by Henwar Rodakiewicz with Portrait of a Young Man (1925-31), a monumental study of natural and abstract motions.
