Book Description

January 1, 1992
is the most comprehensive effort to define independent Asian Pacific media arts and to describe its course from 1970-1990. The words, essays, and statements by the fifty media artists and cultural workers in this book challenge, celebrate, and contradict each other. Over ninety film stills and archival photos from the early 1900s to the 1990s illustrate this volume, designed to be used as a creative sourcebook and as an introductory text.

Russell C. Leong is the editor of Amerasia Journal and Adjunct Professor of English at UCLA.

Review

Moving the Image becomes an instrument of self-determination in the face of the Hollywood film. . . -- Professor Shawn Wong, University of Washington, Seattle

From the Back Cover

is the first volume to document the remarkable body of film, vdeo, and radio produced by Asian and Pacific Americans from the 1960s to the 1990s. Fifty award-winning filmmakers, media artists, and writers speak firsthand to issues of generation and gender, ethnicity and nationality, which shape their imagery and identities. Three introductory essays provide an overview to the subject: Stephen Gong, of the Pacific Film Archives in Berkeley, surveys the role of Asian American media organizations in New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Boston, and San Francisco; Renee Tajima, Oscar-nominated filmmaker, charts twenty years of Asian American filmmaking; and Russell Leong, editor of UCLA's Amerasia Journal brings forth key issues on media culture and the Asian American experience.
