Summary "As Hollis Frampton's photographs and retreated experimental films were testing the boundaries of the camera arts in the 1960s and 1970s, his provocative and highly literate writings were alternating to establish an intellectually resonate form of discourse for these critically underemplored fields. This collection of Frampton's writings presents his critical essays (many writer for Artforum and October) along with additional material, including lectures, correspondence, interviews, production notes, and scripts, it replaces - and supersedes - the long unavailable Circles of confession, published in 1983."--BOOK JACKET.
