Stan Brakhage: Metaphors on Vision

â€œImagine an eye unruled by man-made laws of perspective â€¦ an eye which does not respond to the name of everything but which must know each object encountered in life through an adventure of perception. How many colors are there in a field of grass to the crawling baby unaware of â€˜Green?â€™â€ So begins Stan Brakhageâ€™s (1933â€“2003) classic Metaphors on Vision. Originally published in 1963 by Jonas Mekas as a special issue of Film Culture, and designed by George Maciunas, it stands as the major theoretical statement by one of avant-garde cinemaâ€™s most influential figures, a treatise on mythopoeia and the nature of visual experience written in a style as idiosyncratic as his art. Long out of print, the volume is now available in this definitive edition from Anthology Film Archives and Light Industry, featuring Brakhageâ€™s complete text in its distinctive original layout, as well as annotations by scholar P. Adams Sitney.
