Screening: Film Material Soup & LUX13: Critical Forum

Castlefield Gallery is pleased to be hosting a joint screening of work by Film Material Soup (Manchester) and LUX13: Critical Forum (London) members, including introductions from the artists.

LUX13: Critical Forum consists of 15 artists who came together in May 2013 to form Critical Forum London 2013-14: a discussion group initiated by LUX offering a monthly meeting space for 12 months to artists working with the moving-image who are no longer in education. At each meeting two members presented an aspect of their practice. These presentations have included discussing work-in-progress, sharing texts, considering broader theoretical ideas, and viewing works from the LUX archive. Continuing the group’s process of discursive exchange, each artist has made a work that is no longer than three minutes in response to a word or phrase provided by another member of the group.
