The Essence of Cinema ?

where he notes that the word 'painting,' as it is used to refer to an artform, is really a stand-in for the idea of 'marking surfaces,' since art historians routinely encompass great diversity in respect of the material of the surface to be marked, the materials used to mark it, and the instruments and techniques used in the process of marking ('The Essence of Cinema ?' Engaging the Moving Image, note 11, p. 264). Herbert's poem fits comfortably into this definition as a 'painting' - a surface marked to depict something or to create a visually arresting design.

The case of Snow's film is similar to the sub-genre of painting and sculpture known as 'word art,' in which the artwork is dominated by the rendering of words. Contemporary exponents of the form include Jenny Holzer, Sean Landers, Richard Prince, and Peter Davies; Landers' Self-Something (1994) is a spectacular example. Again we can ask: why do we think of these artworks as paintings rather than poems or short stories, in spite of their intense focus on language? Are we right to do so?
