In collaboration with Open City Documentary Festival, LUX presents a new exhibition by Chinese artist, filmmaker and researcher Bo Wang. Now based in Amsterdam, Wang’s critical spatial practice incorporates film and video, new media, and installation. Hong Kong is a key site of interest, Wang explores how the city operates as a liminal space situated between the legacy of British colonialism and its contemporary connection with mainland China. Through his carefully observed studies in architectural design, and the organisation of urban space, he reveals latent systems of power. He uses a range of archival and contemporary found footage, setting visual systems against each other to pose questions surrounding the production and consumption of images. Through a series of recent essay films, made in collaboration with artist and researcher Pan Lu, his work examines colonial histories, trade and commerce, and systems of categorisation.
The Revolution Will Not Be Air-conditioned is a new work from Wang as he extends his practice into a careful study of the shopping mall, politicising this otherwise intentionally neutralised space. At this exhibition at LUX, Bo Wang’s work is situated within the context of Waterlow Park. Rare and exotic botanical species populate the gardens with views across to the City of London, the centre of the British colonial project.
The Revolution Will Not Be Air-conditioned | 27min | 2022
The title of this work was borrowed from social media comments in the midst of the 2019 Hong Kong anti-extradition protest, which originally references Black civil rights activist Gil Scott-Heron’s iconic 1971 poem “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised”. The images of clashes between protestors and police in Hong Kong have constituted the most sensational memories of global turmoils in the last phase of pre-Covid age, which occurred, peculiarly, often against the backdrop of air-conditioned shopping malls.
Taking this phenomenon as its point of departure, the work traces the architectural evolution of these retail complexes. Drawing from a range of historical references—including the Crystal Palace, built for the 1851 Great Exhibition in London; 19th-century terrarium prototypes used in the British Empire’s botanical trade; and 20th-century corporate salesforce training videos—the work reflects on how the mall as a spatial form evolved from its colonial root of conquest, to a machine of consumerism and social control. Yet, The Revolution Will Not Be Air-Conditioned also pays close attention to how the intended outcomes of spatial design can be subverted, turning such insulated and sanitized spaces into a ground for political action and dissent. - Bo Wang
The Revolution Will Not Be Air-conditioned was commissioned by Junni Chen, for the exhibition Lustrous Like Plastic, Hessel Museum of Art, CCS Bard College, NY.
This exhibition is presented as part of the 12th edition of Open City Documentary Festival (7 – 13 September 2022).
The class is suitable for beginners and is friendly and inclusive. Style is Hatha yoga with various influences – gentle, but still delivering strength and flexibility. Come and try a class to enhance your sense of wellbeing, release stress and tension and to experience deep relaxation. Mats provided, free parking (for now, but check signs!) no need to book – just turn up. The class is in the beautiful church – it’s set back a bit and has big blue doors. The class is mixed level/mixed ability/mixed age. I am a registered BWY teacher and fully insured. For more info about me/my yoga, have a look at my website

Electric cars will be vital to London achieving net zero carbon targets because of reluctance of drivers to walk and cycle, according to David Metz, Professor of Centre for Transport Studies at UCL. This reluctance is illustrated by Highgate’s resistance to Haringey and Camden’s plans to encourage walking and cycling, arguably for good reasons including demography, suburban location, topography and road layouts. David has been described as a “guru” in understanding how people travel and his new book “Good to Go, Decarbonising Travel after the Pandemic” puts all of this into perspective, particularly his research in Copenhagen and other cities. The book has been described as “a tour de force survey from one of our most thoughtful transport experts”. He shows how the car will remain important and how transport planners and modelers keep focusing on the wrong thing in looking at time savings. Decarbonising will thus require a new way of thinking; no easy answers but lots of options.
Entry £5 to include a complimentary glass of wine (£3 on Zoom). Booking via Eventbrite

Following their sell-out, award-winning show Enter The Dragons, A&E Comedy (Abigail Dooley and Emma Edwards, “a brilliant comedy coupling” Total Theatre) return with a spell-binding, surreal and darkly hilarious tale, directed by Cal McCrystal.
“I think they are amazing!!” Phoebe Waller-Bridge
Witch Hunt weaves a cautionary fairytale for our time. It celebrates the wisdom of the witch, unpacks the notion of predator and conjures a world of coven-ready weird sisters.
“Watch out, there are wild women about. Knicker-Wettingly funny” Total Theatre
A ritualistic voodoo brouhaha designed to enchant and hex the pricks and predators; imagine Vic and Bob doing The Crucible.
Using buffoon, puppetry and magic and armed with a ‘wiccan’ sense of humour, A&E Comedy ask “can we use witchcraft to take down the Patriarchy?” Yes we can!
Do come along to meet your neighbours, enjoy a good cup of coffee and find out what is happening in Highgate.
The planning committee often have someone on hand to answer planning queries.
The Cycle of Life, a recurring theme in the work of Marilyn Simler, took on a deeper and more penetrating exploration during this time. Simler says, “For the first time in years, I was able to focus on creating a new body of work, working every day immersed in the flow with little interruption”. Emerging from lockdown, and being presented with the openness and thrill of the vastness of the landscape and enduring positivity of the world, explains the title of the exhibition.
What has emerged is a series that has come from within, which considers the impact of the pandemic and of being more solitary.
Simler’s works reference the magnitude of the natural world which becomes a metaphor for the life cycle. Her preoccupation is with the organic structure of plants and seed pods, and the celebratory glory of flowers, the journey from germination, sprouting, growing, budding, flowering, fading, drooping, folding in, dying, drying, merging…..to re-emergence. She observes the variety of seasonal landscapes, the sea and its treasures of shells and lumps of coral, in turn creating worlds within worlds and explored in mixed media.
Marilyn works intuitively allowing the work to develop in an unplanned exploratory manner; each piece becoming a journey of its own. The work has recognisable and abstracted forms that are integrated into abstract spaces, and she uses a variety of media including drawing, watercolours, acrylics and collage on both paper and canvas. Often a few surprise elements are integrated into the surface of the ground.
The vibrant colours and textures of Southern Africa are inherent in Simler’s work, having spent her formative years growing up there and gaining a BA Honours in Fine Arts at Wits University. After emigrating to the UK with her family she obtained an MA in Fine Arts at Middlesex University.
She has exhibited widely in both group and solo exhibitions, including the Cadogan Gallery and the Royal Opera House.
Her work is held in Public Collections, including the Rolls Building, Unilever, and the V&A print collection portfolio with the PMC Publications. Awards include the Print prize at Middlesex University, St Cuthbert’s Mill Award for the National Open Print and the Zenith Purchase Prize at the Mall Gallery London. Commissions include Royal Caribbean Cruise line, and many corporate and private commissions.

When temperatures drop and cold snaps come, that means only one thing: Jack Frost is here!
Jack Frost is a mischievous young boy with a frozen touch. His magic transforms the landscape and brings the colours of autumn and the chill of cold winter. He freezes the orange and red leaves, and covers the trees and ground with a glistening blanket of ice and snow.
But this year when winter comes around the snow begins to melt and along with it Jack’s extraordinary magic fades. With his powers lost he becomes just an ordinary boy.
In this wintery tale, Jack and his new found friend, search for winter and attempt to restore Jack’s special gift. Circling the globe they meet characters who share their own special shimmering seasonal winter magic, but will Jack’s magic return?
Join tutti frutti for this enchanting new play by poet and playwright Joseph Coelho with important environmental themes, a touch of wintery fun and original live music.
