This open access book presents the first critical analysis of the work of Stephen Dwoskin, groundbreaking filmmaker, artist, graphic designer and writer.

Stephen Dwoskin (1939-2012) was a groundbreaking filmmaker, artist, graphic designer and writer, most renowned for his key role in establishing the London Film Makers Co-Op and The Other Cinema, his book Film Is...(1975), and his experimental, feature length and documentary films. Though his films continue to be screened around the world, his work has - until now - remained chronically under-researched.

Emerging from a major AHRC-funded University of Reading/LUX/BFI research project which explored the unique archive from Dwoskin's estate, this book is the first to critique, analyse and give new insights into this influential but under-studied figure. Inside, a range of established scholars, artists who worked with Dwoskin, emerging critics, curators, cultural historians and archivists highlight Dwoskin's continued relevance to the fields of art history and fine art, film studies, archives and collections, graphic design, and disability studies.
