Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. SIGNED by STAN BRAKHAGE + SIGNED by RICK SCHMIDT, Independent Filmmaker and noted author on filmmaking + SIGNED by CURTIS IMRIE, Independent Filmmaker + INSCRIBED by CURTIS IMRIE to RICK SCHMIDT. Too much good stuff! A MOVING PICTURE GIVING AND TAKING BOOK, by STAN BRAKHAGE. Published by… Frontier Press, Newbury, Massachusetts, 1971. First edition. Flexible black leatherette covers, gilt titles to front cover and spine, small format 4.5x6 inches. Pagination: [4], 65, [2] pages. SIGNED by STAN BRAKHAGE on the front free endpaper. Additionally SIGNED and with a PRESENTATION INSCRIPTION by filmmaker and radio personality CURTIS IMRIE to filmmaker and author RICK SCHMIDT. Imrie's signature is dated "San Francisco, 1/9/76". His inscription to Rick Schmidt is dated "9/1/94". ALSO SIGNED by RICK SCHMIDT (as the last owner of the book), and dated "P.T., WA, 2/12/05." There are lots of underlining, circling of text, and margin marks noting various passages, likely made by Curtis Imrie or Rick Schmidt in preparation for one film project or another. A filmmaker's actual working copy of a Brakhage filmmaking book. Nice. Stan Brakhage is considered to be one of the most important figures in 20th century experimental film. Rick Schmidt is a prolific independent filmmaker and the author of the highly regarded book: "Feature Filmmaking at Used Car Prices". Curtis Imrie was an independent filmmaker, radio personality, and champion burro racer. The inscription reads: "Rick / One good support book deserves another. B-4 FX2 @ Used Car $ [before Feature Filmmaking At Used Car Prices] there was only one Bible for unrepentant actor filmmakers. This one. Appropriately leather bound [actually leatherette I think]. Either return it sometime or walk the talk writing with an audio visual diamond where we diagram the human heart. I'll be a major color on your palette anytime but hey.face up to your talent. Do it. / as ever, C [initialed]" It appears likely that Rick Schmidt sent Curtis Imrie a copy of his book "Feature Filmmaking At Used Car Prices", and Imrie reciprocated by sending Schmidt a copy of Brakhage's book. It is unclear to me who had Brakhage sign the book. Rick Schmidt was more in Brakhage's circle, they both were prolific independent filmmakers and went to many of the same film conferences, independent film events, etc.; but Curtis Imrie and Stan Brakhage both spent a lot of time living in Colorado. What a journey through the hands of independent filmmakers - Stan Brakhage - Curtis Imrie - Rick Schmidt. CONDITION: A couple small indents to the covers, lots of underlining, circling, and margin marks noting important passages (as detailed above), a pea size stain to the front margin of one page of text; otherwise tight, bright and clean, with signatures and inscriptions that are bright, clear and bold. About STAN BRAKHAGE (from Wikipedia): ******James Stanley Brakhage, b.1933 d.2003, was an American filmmaker. He is considered to be one of the most important figures in 20th century experimental film.****** (An artistic genius imho.) About RICK SCHMIDT (from IMDB): ******Rick Schmidt, b.1944, has been making films since the seventies. His 26 films have been screened in film festivals around the world, including Sundance's Dramatic Competition (Grand Jury Prize nomination), Slamdance, Rotterdam, Berlin International, New Directors/New Films, the Museum of Modern Art (NY), and has received critical praise from top film critics. Schmidt is also author of "FEATURE FILMMAKING AT USED CAR PRICES" which is considered "The Bible" of fledgling filmmakers and has been credited with influencing filmmakers Kevin Smith, Vin Diesel, Tom DiCillo, and many others.****** About CURTIS IMRIE (from Wikipedia and IMDB) ******Walter Curtis Imrie Jr. (aka Curt Imrie), b.1946 d.2017, was an American filmmaker, actor, radio personality, sportsman, burro racer, and candidate for elected political office.******.

First Edition. First Edition. Inscribed by the author to publisher Barney Rosset on the front endpaper: "Dear Barney / In thanks for all you've given, made possible: / Thanks, / Stan Brakhage." Barney Rosset was the founder of the Grove Press, which, in addition to its obvious importance, helped usher Brakhage's work into instit…utions in the 1970s by "publishing" select short films by the artist on tiny reels that were sold to libraries and the publisher's readership. In this volume, Brakhage investigates four of the principal architects of cinema, including Sergei Eisenstein. A wonderful association, and an important collection by one of the most important cinematic artists of the 1970s. Very Good plus in paper-covered card wrappers as issued, with moderate rubbing and a bit of light wear at the extremities. Signed.

Adepte d un cinéma visionnaire qui trouve sa puissance plastique et critique dans le matériau même du cinéma, Stan Brakhage fait figure aujourd hui de père spirituel pour toute une génération d artistes. Son uvre, féconde et multiple, se nourrit aussi bien de son univers intime et familial que de la nature et des événements politiques de son temps. Grand technicien de l outil cinématographique - la caméra comme les optiques ou les systèmes de tirage, Brakhage invente une forme cinématographique unique dont l importance dans l histoire du cinéma l a parfois fait comparer à Jackson Pollock pour la peinture. Ce catalogue raisonné définitif de l uvre de Brakhage, réalisé par Émilie Vergé en étroite collaboration avec Marilyn Brakhage, est accompagné d'un texte du grand critique d'art américain P. Adams Sitney, résumant la trajectoire du cinéaste. '' ****************************.

Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Quarto. Side-stapled printed buff wrappers. Small tears to the slightly oversize wrappers, near fine. Produced as a monograph in a series published by Jonas Mekas' Film-makers' Cinematheque. Self-styled "novel" which really serves as an exhaustive overview and critique of the first… 28 films by Stan Brakhage. The author's claim that this is fictional is a conceit that belies the in-depth analysis of Brakhage's output.
