The screening is of six films from the Cinenova collection around race, identity, sexuality and gender. The programme focuses on different aspects of space, such as having a space in history; interior and exteriors; public and private. To accompany the screening there will be a publication that has been designed and created especially for the event, containing stills and scanned material of the films from the Cinenova paper archive.
Curated by Rhiannon Moxham and Becky Buckman, Occupying Space will take place at LUX in Waterlow Park and is part of the Antiuniversity Now festival (1-16 June 2017). See the full programme on www.antiuniversity.org.
Rhiannon Moxham and Becky Buckman joined Cinenova as part of the Artquest Widening Participation internship scheme. The six month scheme aims to place UAL’s recent Outreach graduates in paid roles to ensure equality of access to jobs in the visual arts.
This event is supported by Artquest.
