What is Federico Fellini : Painting in Film, Painting on Film about?

<p>Federico Fellini professed a desire to create &ldquo;an entire film made of immobile pictures.&rdquo; In this study, Hava Aldouby uses this quotation as a launching point to analyze Fellini&rsquo;s films as sequences of &ldquo;pictures&rdquo; that draw extensively on art history, and particularly painting, as a reservoir of visual imagery. Aldouby employs an innovative pictorial approach that allows her to uncover a wealth of visual evocations overlooked by Fellini scholars over the years.</p><p><em>Federico Fellini: Painting in Film, Painting on Film</em> sheds light on the intertextual links between Fellini&rsquo;s films and the works of various artists, from Velazquez to Francis Bacon, by identifying references to specific paintings in his films. Using new archival evidence from Fellini&rsquo;s private library, brought to light for the first time here, Aldouby draws out Fellini&rsquo;s in-depth knowledge of art history and his systematic employment of art-historical allusions.</p>
