Items related to The Moving Images of Tracey Moffatt
The Moving Images is the first comprehensive monograph on the film work of the Australian-born, New York-based artist Tracey Moffatt, revealing and discussing in depth her working methods and practice. Storyboards, film stills, film notes and on-location photographs are reproduced, from Moffatt's early work of the late 80s to her most recent. Moffatt's work in film and photography is characterized by a keen political and conceptual consistency, specifically in its preoccupation with marginalizing gestures of any sort--for example, her 1999 film, Lip, combines clips of black servants in Hollywood movies talking back to their bosses. Other works have investigated Hollywood portrayals of artists and the provocative discomfort of the female gaze. This essential volume, which features text by the Australian scholar and performance artist, Dr. Catherine Summerhayes, focuses on Moffat's important contemporary cinematic oeuvre, approaching it as simultaneously film, performance art, documentation and photography.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Signed and dated, with added hand-written text, in black ink on the half-title page by Moffatt ("Art saves us all!, Tracey Moffatt, New York, 2007"). Hardcover. Photographically illustrated paper-covered boards; no dust jacket as issued. Films by Tracey Moffatt. Text by Catherine Summerhayes. Includes an exhibition history, film- and videography, collections and a bibliography. Designed by Stacy Wakefield Forte. 352 pp., with 674 four-color and 42 black-and-white illustrations. 11-5/8 x 9-3/4 inches. New (opened only for signature). Moffatt's accessible, yet acutely personal work consistently offers fresh critiques of societies that are staggering under the weight of racism, sexism, homophobia and economic injustice. While this long-overdue monograph chiefly focuses on Moffatt's "moving images," some of her more well-known photographic series (such as "Laudanum" and "Something More") also figure here. From the publisher: "The Moving Images of Tracey Moffatt is both visually exciting and the very first monograph to explore in depth the film work of the New York-based Australian artist/photographer, Tracey Moffatt. This book is full of striking images drawn from her films by the artist herself, and also includes her own statements, descriptions of her work, and storyboards. The author, Catherine Summerhayes, writes of Moffatt's experimental work in film from the analytic viewpoint of film studies. She explores Moffatt's films not only as visual art, but as a particular kind of performance art in company with Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and the American surrealist filmmaker Maya Deren."
