The second issue of the new TATE magazine is on sale

from Thursday 7th November 2002

From the Editors Note:

For the best part of a century, we have been used to reading about the artistry of feature-film directors, from Abel Gance to Andrei Tarkovsky or even Hollywood film directors who sometimes strike the flint of genius, such as Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick or David Lynch. Where do artists fit into all of this? In this second issue of the new TATE magazine, Mark Nash explains why artists films owe much to the history of the moving image, yet cannot be viewed in the same way as narrative cinema or television. Possibly the most admired artist today making feature-length films is the American Matthew Barney, who has created this issues Artist Project, including new drawings describing the trajectory of his ten-year Cremaster film cycle. Robert Violette
