Between the black box and the white cube

"The first book to tell the story of the postwar expanded cinema that would inspire the now ubiquitous presence of the moving image in contemporary art. In the 1950s and 1960s, the rise of television caused movie theaters to lose their monopoly over the moving image. Andrw V. Uroskie argues that it was this cultural displacement, rather than any formal or technological innovation, that lay at the origins of the expanded cinema."--Back cover.
