“And this is the liberating discovery… the man-made alone can be made, whereas whatever else the environment has to show is only imitable by make-believe… A crucial problem of twentieth-century art—how to make the painting a firsthand reality—resolves itself when the subject matter shifts from nature to culture.” —Leo Steinberg
Recap: Man and machine, life and art, documentary/fiction, idealism and reality collapsed. Yet Vertov shows things as things, images as images, equal and radiant in their thingness. No longer is the soccer ball the service of stories and the tool of man: now we see how it directs men's gestures. But to see the thing, it must be seen in relativities of movement, reoriented and re-placed. Abstract the principles and forms by seeing its relations: it takes two bricks to see the form of one. Life's design is the film's design, an electrified Arcadia the camera...
