Hi Eric,
Thanks--yes, that looks like a good candidate. Odd, though that it's listed
as unpublished since Richter's letter seems to say it was. Perhaps its a
shorter version? I will have to take a look.

On pg 34 of MacDonalds book Art In Cinema, there is a letter from Hans Richter
in which he mentions a pamphlet on the history of avant-garde film he wrote,
published in 1943. Does anyone have/know of a copy they could share with me?
I've been looking and can't find it--or any other reference to
It is in the Art in Cinema catalog for the first cinematheque in the
world created by Frank Stauffacher here in San Francisco during that time
period. The article is on page #6 of the original catalog reprinted by
Scott M. dated 1947.

Great, thanks! I didn't realize that was the case. My impression was he wrote
something (or expanded it) for the Art in Cinema symposium book since it so
closely mirrors the program.

, as part of the section called Books, Pamphlets, there's a mention of
Film and Progress. Not published in full; published in part in
