long-time doyen of German experimental film, Red Avocado Film re-published the first-ever documentation about Nekes and his work, free to download here (http://www.redavocadofilm.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Werner-Nekes-1966- 1973.pdf)
Originally published by Studienkreis Film of Ruhr-Universität Bochum in 1974, it contains descriptions, published articles, and information about structures up to single-frame analyses of all of Nekes films from Tom Doyle and Eva Hesse (1965) to DIWAN (1973). The 100page documentation also contains a couple or original contributions (Klaus Wyborny, Jean-Marie Straub, Paul Sharits) and essays about experimental film and art, political implications of cinematographic aesthetics, and assumptions about speeding up of information. Spoiler: almost everything is in German Due to the contemporary low-quality reproduction of film stills, also offered are new and updated stills transfers (http://www.redavocadofilm.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Werner-Nekes-1966- 1973-stills.pdf) . So stay tuned to your friendly Red Avocado Film :) Ingo
