QUOTE of TOM GUNNING for NOTES ON MM
“After bringing new insight to the most famous American avant-garde filmmaker, Maya Deren, Martina Kudlacek now helps us rediscover one of the most influential but neglected women filmmakers, Marie Menken. Mentor of Stan Brakhage and Jonas Mekas, confident of Kenneth Anger, star of Andy Warhol’s films from the 60’s, and possible model for Edward Albee’s Martha, Menken’s delicate lyrical yet powerful and often sardonic films are here revealed as part of a complex and often tragic life of a women artist.”
Tom Gunning, Film Historian

QUOTE of JONAS MEKAS for NOTES ON MM
“Martina Kudláček is an extraordinary scholar and film-maker who makes an exceptional contribution to preserve our film heritage. Martina’s work expands our understanding of important artists like Maya Deren and Marie Menken. Only love of cinema!”
Jonas Mekas, film-maker/director of Anthology Film Archives
