Reviews

'Amy Greenfield shows us how camera movement and human motion can be ecstatically joined together.' - Whitney Museum of American Art '[Greenfield's films] give us the camera as a surrogate hand as well as a surrogate eye. They provoke questions regarding relationships between physical and psychological distances; they suggest a tension between all-seeing and selective observation. Greenfield takes the commonplace and makes it seem surreal.' - Artweek 'Dazzling. We're able to experience [her] Antigone as if we had never seen it performed in any other form before, an Antigone at once sensual and erotic, timeless and timely.' - Los Angeles Times 'Light of the Body is especially remarkable in that it manages to remain a film of the beauty of illuminated nudity-no sexual manipulation. Bravo!' - Stan Brakhage 'A surreal masterpiece. The beauty rises to a level of intoxication, thus making Wildfire direct in its reconciliation of poetry and motion.' - Williamsburg International Film Festival '[Amy Greenfield] has continually engaged with and embraced new technologies.' - Mark Moran for PictureVille 'An innovatively structured book, rich with primary sources, which will be of interest to art aficionados, historians, and scholars.' - Dance Chronicle, Colleen Hooper
