Abstract
Abstract
The article analyses how Andy Warhol Eating a Hamburger predates slow cinema by evoking situative and existential boredom. Rather than simply facilitating modernist and temporal ways of seeing, Leth explores the creative potential of Warhol's post-Romantic boredom, marked by both duration and meaninglessness, to counteract the anti-immersion effect and amplify receptiveness.
