For three decades, Paul Arthur has been a leading observer and critic as
well as a participant in America's avant-garde cinema. In A Line of Sight,
he provides a new account of the extravagant energies of American
experimental cinema since 1965. Amid the resurgence of experimental
filmmakers, A Line of Sight reaffirms the breadth and diversity of the
avant-garde tradition in America.

'An illuminating and unique critical overview of avant-garde filmmaking'.
Adams Sitney

'Paul Arthur's A Line of Sight interrupts conventional wisdom and
establishes the enduring value of American avant-garde film on a new
terrain.' Chuck Kleinhans
