Strangelove presents its spring collection with films and performances that reflect the diversity of moving image

 
 

Films can be found in the two multi-screen channels Psychic Diaspora and Live Art

 

People even now in the 21st century, are forced, due to geopolitical events beyond their control, to leave their home for fear of their lives. Others move to find a new home elsewhere, But each place, whether we are leaving or arriving, has its own subtle non-negotiable character, beneath the identity we impose on it,  that becomes part of us, and we carry it with us. 

In Strangelove’s Spring Online Programme, you will find an eclectic range films and videos, that talk of place; real and imaginary and displacement; psycical and existential. Artists include Vincent Tanguy, Alan Marzo, Ewan Golder, Clare Unsworth, Aline Fischer, Colin Solal Cardo, John Baker and Terence Davey

Produced independently, After Derrick directed by Alan Marzo, is a raw road-movie documentary following the journey of 4 East African music producers and sound artists and their encounter with a group of Western musicians for recording sessions and a tour around the region.
