With Klinger and all the more with Eisenstein, for whom montage was the building block of film, the cycle and the film must be considered in their entirety.” (Kemp, 1996, p. 3) - “Here I would be inclined to speak of an aggregate stage of visual communication, that actually contravenes everything that later established itself as the main tendency of Western art production and everything that film in the literal sense internalized: the integrative, continuous, unified nature of the single picture.” (Kemp, 1996, p. 4) ### Related ```dataview LIST FROM [[@kemp_narrativity_1996]] and -"Plans" and -"resources" ```
