Popple, SE (2017) The Miners’ Hymns: Acts of Resurrection. In: Herzogenrath, B, (ed.) The Films of Bill Morrison: Aesthetics of the Archive. Framing Film . Amsterdam University Press , Amsterdam ISBN 9789089649966
Abstract
Avant-garde filmmaker Bill Morrison has been making films that combine archival footage and contemporary music for decades, and he has recently begun to receive substantial recognition: he was the subject of a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, and his 2002 film Decasia was selected for the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress. This is the first book-length study of Morrison's work, covering the whole of his career. It gathers specialists throughout film studies to explore Morrison's "aesthetics of the archive"—his creative play with archival footage and his focus on the materiality of the medium of film.
