Was ist Film – Peter Kubelkas Zyklisches Programm im Österreichischen Filmmuseum

Stefan Grissemann (* 1964) is the arts editor of Austrian weekly profil and has authored and edited books on filmmakers such as Edgar G. Ulmer, Ulrich Seidl, Robert Frank, and Michael Haneke. Alexander Horwath (* 1964) is the director of the Austrian Film Museum. He has curated the Documenta 12 film programme and edited books on 1970s U.S. cinema, Film Curatorship, Josef von Sternberg, among others. Regina Schlagnitweit (* 1964) is the head of the programme department at the Austrian Film Museum. With a background in musicology, she has edited the anthology Film and Music (Synema, Vienna 1999).

Once you delve into Peter Kubelka's programmatic cycle you will definitely be able to look at film history differently. Instead of a history of narratives, it will be about forms of seeing and hearing which, today, have very few places left to blossom.
