Jack Chambers' R-34 (1967). This is Chambers' film of the neo-Dada collagist and painter Greg Curnoe, which mixes footage of Curnoe at work in his studio with scenes from his daily life and his community in London, Ontario; Chambers' editing
 mirrors Curnoe's collage aesthetics.

Subject: [Frameworks] Films about painting as action/gesture 



Hello all, 
  
Here is something I’ve been thinking about lately: films/videos that show the action of someone painting. For my project, I’m not really interested in docs about painters discussing
 their work and their philosophies, but rather films or documentation of artists in the act of putting “paint” to “canvas”, no matter how unconventional or abstract. Some mixture of discussion and activity is fine, but the emphasis should be on the action. 
  
I’m thinking about things like the film documentation of Yves Klein’s Anthropometries painting-performances or John Baldessari’s Six Colorful Inside Jobs, for example. 
  
Thanks in advance for any help!

An immense amount of animation that uses different techniques to convey motion 
through painting and pair-like gestures (shifting sand, particle materials, 
oil/water, etc.) could be included here.  And of course drawing that builds 
through sequence.

Do you know this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BiFwUzybE0?
It is an abstract film of 1958 that shows the process of painting a picture by 
Tadeusz Kantor (1915-1990) who was a Polish abstract painter and a well know 
theater director. This film can be found on a DVD ‘Polish Experimental 
Animation’ that I have put together. There is more good stuff on it.

silent. 70 mins.). The film's title signifying a series of random and 
meaningless words is a remarkable film. Itself, is the first feature-length 
film in the history of Spanish cinema painted entirely in the camera-less 
animation technique. Sistiaga uses 35mm celluloid as a blank, transparent 
canvas, directly applying paint onto the film employing different techniques. 
Taking 17 months to complete, and lacking figurative elements or sound 
accompaniment, the result is an indescribable experience and designed to be 
experienced projected in a darkened cinema.

Best,


Robert E. Cargni
Associate Director of Arts
Senior Curator
