The Pijanowskis, husband and wife, work in a variety of disciplines including sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, and fabric art. Their art, in the broadest sense, consists of an attempt to master materials and processes.

The article presents a symposium on films as an art form as literature. On the face of it, there's nothing preventing narrative film from aspiring to the condition of art, but few films seem to have achieved it. Like popular fiction or song, movies are stunted by the constraint of form. That they deliver on the promise of entertaining an audience large enough to recoup the vast figure needed to launch even a modest effort. The great foreign films (the so-called "art" movies) are, of course, proud to ignore the constraint, happy to be long, baggy, humorless, ambiguous, shaped with no concern for jolts or thrills; to be, in short, always more and less entertaining.
