Abstract

In this short book, Caminati offers a symptomatic reading of Pasolini’s film theory and practice as it articulates a particular anxiety about the contemporary art scene of his time, even as Pasolini shares certain commonalities with it. In particular, it argues that many “primitivist” elements in Pasolini’s art (both materially and ideologically speaking) are infused with archaic and primitive thematic very visible in the "arte povera" movement.
