Filming for the Future – The Work of Louis van Gasteren: Framing Film
Autor Patricia Pistersen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 noi 2015
Louis Van Gasteren was one of the most prolific filmmakers in the history of the Netherlands, with a resume that includes nearly eighty documentaries and two feature films - to say nothing of artworks and books.
Filming for the Future offers an extended exploration of Van Gasteren's work and audio-visual world. Patricia Pisters introduces us to a filmmaker who always had his camera ready and was relentless in filming a wide range of topics and events of national and international importance. Fascinated by technology, deeply engaged with politics, and intensely occupied by the traumatic effects of war, Van Gasteren assembled an unparalleled record of life in twentieth-century Amsterdam and beyond. Filming for the Future will be an invaluable source of documentation and analysis of one of the key filmmakers of our time.

Recenzii
“Finally. An engaged and thoughtful full-on narrative illuminating the work of Holland's preeminent film director, Louis van Gasteren. Patricia Pisters's Filming for the Future is an unflinching and deft rendering of the six decades of van Gasteren's films; the writer giving blood, flesh and story to a complicated and controversial artist's obsessions and aesthetics. Like her subject's work, Pisters eschews cliché and slippery ideas to cement well-wrought and hard earned research that throws bright light onto the times and temperament of van Gasteren's work. Filming for the Future is an essential complement to understanding van Gasteren's life, films and obsessions.”
"Unique attempt to interpret the multifaceted and multilayered oeuvre of the Grand Old Man of Dutch documentary in an all-encompassing treatise. A great achievement!"
