Film In Space 1

The current group exhibition Film In Space curated by Guy Sherwin at Camden Art Centre focuses on expanded cinema, an experimental film movement occurring in Britain in the early 1970s.  Works at this brilliant exhibition were selected for their strong emphasis on the experimental aspects of film, light and sound.  Some of my favourites at the show:

Emma Hart's Blind, using a motorized blind and a slide projector:


Guy Sherwin's projection Painted Screen:



Simon Payne's site-specific looping video projection Window Piece:




Dan Hays's pixellated painting First Light of red, green and blue:



Correspondence between Angela Allen's paintings Correspondences and Nicky Hamlyn's film projection Correspondences:
