- This is a monograph (236 pp; 94,000 words) on Antonioni, positioned in the field of world/European art cinema. It is interdisciplinary and comparative, demonstrating extensive research, analysis and synthesis in film and media studies, and art history. Research was over five years, with extensive use of the Antonioni Archive and the Venice Biennale Archive, as well as the holdings of research libraries and specialist collections in Italy. The approach required a complex and comprehensive reassessment of the Antonioni corpus. The book has a national and transnational focus, situating Antonioni’s work in the context of both Italian and Anglo-American post-war culture.
