Description
This volume considers the film-stills of Ernst Haas, transgressing the borders between static photography and the moving image. Haas worked with a variety of directors from Vittorio de Sica to John Huston, Gene Kelly and Michael Cimino covering movie genres from suspense ('The Third0Man';'The Train') to the Western ('The Oregon Trail'; 'Little Big Man'), and from comedy ('Miracle in Milan'; 'Love and Death') to musicals ('West Side Story'; 'Hello Dolly'). While the photographic reference system known as the film-still has existed since the birth of cinema, inherent to the genre are precisely those parameters that are essential qualities of Haas photography, and which interact in a striking manner with his images made independently of film. On the one hand, we find photographs documenting shoots and depictions of individual scenes. On the other hand, it is Haas' clear ambition to inscribe a temporal dimension into these images; to impose filmic principles into the stills which, viewed in a sequence, generate movement and narrative.
