| 520 | _a"The Art of the Moving Picture" by Vachel Lindsay is a critical exploration of motion pictures as an emerging art form, initially written in the early 20th century and revised in the early 1920s. This literary work serves as both a critique and a guide for the aesthetic principles that should govern the making and appreciation of motion pictures, especially in the context of American culture and its evolving artistic landscape. Lindsay seeks to elevate cinema to a higher status among the traditional art forms, arguing for its recognition in museums alongside painting, sculpture, and architecture. The opening of the text introduces Lindsay's intent, emphasizing the need for critical discourse regarding film as an art form, particularly at a time when myriad art museums were emerging across America. He outlines the various aspects of photoplay criticism, showing a deep understanding of both the technical and emotional elements inherent in films. He presents various categories of motion pictures he plans to discuss, including action films, intimate plays, and those that focus on splendor, laying the groundwork for his exploration of how the cinema combines artistic expression with narrative storytelling. He reflects on personal experiences and observations about earlier films and their potential, while also advocating for a future where films can aspire to be as revered as other artistic endeavors.
