What becomes of the frame in an era of post-cinema? This chapter explores that question and possible answers as suggested by two exemplary post-cinematic moving-image works, Camille Henrot’s single-channel video installation Grosse Fatigue (2013) and Kevin B. Lee’s video essay Transformers: The Premake (2014). The proliferation of frames in these works enacts an itinerary of the aesthetic strategy I call ‘post-cinematic unframing’ that particularly comes to the fore when framing is explicitly thematised – as it is, for example, when pop-up bubbles are superimposed on a scene to display characters’ text messaging, or by superimposing, stacking, juxtaposing, and collaging images. |
