Fractured Eye does not concern itself with mainstream’ or ‘cult’ cinema, but rather takes its cue from Vogel’s seminal 1974 study Film As A Subversive Art. Subjects covered include illegal pornography in the 1970s, execution documents of WW2, extreme performance art, subversive film, surrealist scenarios, revolutionary Japanese film, the origins of film projection technology, urban demolition, surgical films, and various other transgressive works. The book is illustrated with unusual and often disquieting photographs, and is recommended for adult readers only.
