Keats, Love and Myth Understandings – John Hegley @ Jacksons Lane
Tickets
Oct 30 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

‘Awesomely mundane’ Independent

‘Scandalously talented’ Sunday Times

Jul 19 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Myths remixed: the classic story of Persephone is retold with live music, aerial acrobatics, fire, dance and mime. A high impact show full of hope and sorrow, it’s Greek mythology but not as you know it as this tale of love, choice and empowerment gets a contemporary circus twist. Chivaree Circus will take you on a journey and leave you ready to embrace an eternity in Hades.

Introduction to Artists’ Moving Image @ LUX
Tickets
Nov 19 @ 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Introduction to Artists’ Moving Image @ LUX | London | England | United Kingdom

Using key works from the LUX archive – the largest collection of artists film and video in the country – this short introductory course will trace and discuss artists’ engagement with the moving image throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, from the early pioneers of the 1920s to contemporary practitioners. We will explore through active discussion the relationship between art and cinema and the place and role of the moving image within contemporary visual arts today.

No previous knowledge is required, just a curiosity to see and find out more about this fascinating area of art practice.

Led by Maria Palacios Cruz, LUX Deputy Director.
