CONSTRUCTS: Katie Hare / Callum Hill / Ellie Power @ LUX
Sep 30 @ 12:00 pm – 6:00 pm
CONSTRUCTS: Katie Hare / Callum Hill / Ellie Power @ LUX | London | England | United Kingdom

CONSTRUCTS is the inaugural exhibition at LUX’s new home in Waterlow Park, in Highgate. It marks LUX’s return to Camden, where its predecessor organisation, the London Film-Makers’ Co-operative, was based for more than three decades.

Curated by Matt Carter, the exhibition features work by three emerging London-based artists who graduated this year: Katie Hare (MFA Goldsmiths), Callum Hill (MA RCA), and Ellie Power (BA Wimbledon). Their work spans across HD video, CGI, gaming networks, installation, animation, found footage and 16mm film, with each artist’s diverse practice engaging with and utilising moving image in its many forms today. The works presented in this exhibition interrogate the constructs of the mediums themselves, the latent power they might hold, and examine their relationships to individual and collective cultural constructs.

CONSTRUCTS continues the partnership initiated in 2014 between Art Licks Weekend and LUX for the Moving Image programme of the festival.

Jul 14 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm

Multi-talented actress, singer, author, director Annabel Leventon (Rocky Horror Picture Show, Rock Follies) will describe some key events in her career in theatre, film and TV. She has worked at a successful level for so long that the list of actors she has worked with reads like a who’s who of British theatre, including the likes of Peter O’Toole, George Cole, and Mark Rylance. Her talk will focus on the ups and downs of creativity and how she moved from being nominated for actress of the year for her role as the leading lady in Hair! to originating the idea for a hit TV series and then to setting a legal precedent protecting the work of all creative people.

A Night At The Opera: Dinner & Talk @ Coolhurst Tennis and Squash Club
Oct 12 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm

Coolhurst Speaker Evening with Penny Chalmers.

As well as chairing the Coolhurst GMC, Penny Chalmers has had two parallel careers:
consultant in Social Services, and professional opera singer.

 

In October 1996 Penny learned the leading lady had
gone ill after the second act of a Covent Garden opera,
and the understudy was abroad.
There was one chance to avert disaster.
She had minutes to decide if she would accept
their request to go on as Brünnhilde in Die Walküre,
one of the most demanding roles in the repertoire,
but one she had not prepared.
This world class production featured a cast of opera stars.
It was conducted by one of the all-time greats,
Sir Bernard Haintink, and it was being broadcast live.
Come to the speaker evening on October 12th
to hear what happened next.

Tickets are on sale at the bar at £21,or for 18 years and under,£18
