LUX EVENING COURSE: Opening up the Archive – a Guided tour of Artists Moving Image - back by popular demand
Whether sitting on the shelves in LUX’s East London Studio, or in transit to screenings and film festivals across the globe, LUX holds one of the most diverse collections of artists’ film and video in Europe. More than a collection of film cans and video tapes, the LUX archive reflects the rich history and continuing vibrancy of artists’ work with the moving image: from the earliest experiments of the avant-garde to the recent explorations of multiple-screen projection and film performance.
The LUX archive provides the starting point for this short course. Over six weeks a selection of different films or videos from the collection provides the focus for some of the historical contexts and key debates that have enlivened artists’ moving image from the 1920s to the present day. Led by the film writer and curator Lucy Reynolds, and held in the screening room at LUX, the course will present some of the rarely seen films and videos from the LUX collection in an introduction to, and an insight into, the thriving culture of artists’ filmmaking.
Each week, a weekly selection of moving image works traces some of the most significant themes, figures and movements to emerge across more than a century of artists’ moving image: from a cinema of abstraction and Surrealism, to experiments with film’s materiality and recent digital explorations; from political subversion to personal poetics.
Each class will be supported with weekly handouts of key texts and further information on the artists and work under discussion.
The course runs for 6 weeks from Tuesday September 21st, 7pm - 9pm at LUX Offices in Dalston, East London.
Course fees are £80/£60 concessions
To book a place on the course or for further questions please contact Silvia McMenamin silvia@lux.org.uk
