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.

The 10th Annual Kyffin Williams Lecture: Conservation Challenges


Jenny Williamson, Easel Painting Conservator

Jenny Williamson has come to know Kyffin Williams’s pictures well through her work at galleries across Wales.  In this talk to mark Kyffin’s centenary year she will answer questions such as ‘what does an art conservator do?’ ‘what does she aim to achieve?’, ‘what techniques does she use?’ and ‘what pitfalls does she need to avoid?’

Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.
