                                                                      Preface

            When we draw, Paul Klee suggests that we take
                                                           a line for a walk.

                     In my work I have adapted his suggestion:
                                               I take an idea for a walk.

  This book is for those who write, compose, photograph,
                            paint, sculpt, build, choreograph, film;

                              for all who think as a result of doing.

                                           This book is for those who,
                      largely free from imposed preconceptions,

                                 enjoy taking their ideas for a walk.

                                                             

   Eisenstein on the Audiovisual  (Bloomsbury Publishing, I. B. Tauris, 2009, 2011), won the And/Or Kraszna-Krausz Foundation Prize for the best book on the moving image:

 ‘We had no hesitation in choosing the winner.  Robert Robertson achieves the near-impossible, shedding fresh light on Eisenstein without loading him with ideology.  
 Like the work it describes, this book is symphonic; it draws together strong influences and forces around Eisenstein into a compelling and cogent narrative – at once enjoyable, provocative.’
 Francine Stock, Chair of the judging panel, And/Or Kraszna-Krausz Prize, 2010
