The Visions of Fine Art in the Composition of Experimental Film

Abstract

levels, emanating from an interactive, participatory approach within them. Accordingly, it is perceived that the experiments in Art is the mirror that has reflected human life and is associated with it. Along with the development of the state of art, artists have discovered expressive means to illustrate their inner self. Hence, every branch of art has left its mark on the film, and it has contributed to defining the rules of its composition. Film implies semiotic references, in addition to its being a structure that frames the shape of the topic to push it to its ultimate expressiveness, making this topic, as such, different from others. Notably, experiment has held an important role in generating a unique expressive medium which laid the foundations of the aesthetic and artistic orientations and methods. Nevertheless, experiment is not recognized per se unless all the elements of the expressive medium related to it are completed. Thereupon, the medium, or one of its elements, is used in an unprecedented way that is not only brand new, but that imposes challenges to the rooted tradition, as it never ceases to impress people with the abundance of its creativity.

The interaction between the artist and the experimental film has conferred a distinguished richness upon the cognitive, aesthetic, and symbolic Expressionism, Dadaism, Abstractionism, Surrealism, and others have emerged as a result of a profound need in the innovators’ inner self to demonstrate the language and events of their era, as well as the brainstorm they used to experience. All of this had affected their insides; thus, making the old forms quite incongruous with their creators’ experience.

 Indeed, the experimental film has not spared a single element of the visual language from treatment. In essence, it studies the textual semantics as they are distributed in the forms of signs or characteristics according to specific systems, the trajectories of which should be defined and displayed in the film. Subsequently, it creates an original semiotic reference integrated within the artwork.
