“These artists have dispensed entirely with the camera by marking directly on the filmstrip frame-by-frame. This historical survey highlights films made with a variety of techniques such as scratching, painting, photograms, growing mold and crystals, using press-apply symbols, etc. Included will be the first hand-painted film, Lye’s A Colour Box (1935).” —J.C.
