Expanded Cinema and Installation

Expanded Cinema concerns video and film as an art form and moving film away from the confines of the screen and incorporating film in gallery installations, performance art and projections.

For artists, expanded cinema films can be used as a stand alone piece, or part of installations which reflect personal expression in the structure of the artist's work.

Below are my notes from the screening of the films during the lecture:
