Martin Arnold

Martin Arnold graduated from the University of Vienna with a degree in Psychology and Art History. He's known primarily as an experimental filmmaker who reworks old found footage--Hassan reminded me of this guy in class today. I cannot stress how much I love his work and it's weird hypnotic quality.

"The cinema of Hollywood is a cinema of exclusion, reduction and denial, a cinema of repression. There is always something behind that which is being represented, which was not represented. And it is exactly that that is most interesting to consider." Martin Arnold "Alone. Life Wastes Andy Hardy" - 16mm Film, b&w, 15min., 1998
