DVD/DSL BUNDLES OF EDITION FILMMUSEUM - VIENNA TITLES AVAILABLE FROM GME STREAMLINE

As part of this developing venture, GME Streamline is pleased to remind interested professors and librarians of GME's curated collection of DVD publications from Edition Filmmuseum - Vienna, all of which we now make available as DVD/DSL bundles. The Austrian Film Museum in Vienna was founded in 1964 by Peter Konlechner (1936–2016) and film artist Peter Kubelka (b. 1934). From its outset, the principal aims of the institution were the high-quality preservation and public presentation of film, as well as reaffirming the two important roles of cinema in society: as the most important form of artistic expression in modernity and as the chief historiographical source of the 20th century.
