Cinema’s original canons were based on a small number of works most highly esteemed by archivists and historians. But access to the history of film has been dramatically expanded by digital media, as have debates between those arguing from different premises. ‘Discoverability’ is an important new criterion amid the vast range of works now readily available. Will this new democracy of taste mark the end of traditional canons, and what are the implications for preservation and education?
This lecture is in association with Ciné Lumière, Institut Français. Followed by a related screening (Paid tickets available from Ciné Lumière).
Details on how to register for 2021 lectures will be updated in due course on the webpage for the event.
