SUMMARY:Derek
DESCRIPTION:Dir: Isaac Julien | UK 2008 | 76 Min | Lang: English \nPoetic and award-winning documentary by artist-filmmaker\, Isaac Julien. \nThis film celebrates the life and work of film-maker\, artist and gay rights activist Derek Jarman. Interview footage\, musings from Tilda Swinton\, archival footage and segments from Jarman’s work weave together to build a portrait of a bold\, inspiring and multi-dimensional character. \n  \n \nIsaac Julien and Tilda Swinton in Isaac Julien’s Derek\, 2008. Photo Nina Kellgren. Courtesy of the artist. \n  \nWe are delighted to present this film during Southampton Film Week in anticipation of Derek Jarman’s Modern Nature exhibition at John Hansard Gallery\, opening 27 November 2021. \n  \n\nIn a collaboration with Tilda Swinton\, Derek\, poetically tells the story of Derek Jarman through extensive use of archive footage. The documentary is centred in a day-long interview Jarman gave to Colin McCabe in the 80s.\n\n\nFrom Sebastiane (1976) to Blue (1992)\, Derek Jarman’s films constantly interrogated time and art\, and epitomised his own era. He was a painter\, part of that moment that made sixties London a capital of the art crucial figure of British independent cinema through the seventies\, eighties and nineties. He lived as a gay man surging the joys of Gay Liberation and the sorrows of AIDS. He lived as a participant observer\, noting with pen or camera all that passed before him – from punk to Thatcher\, from Hampstead Heath to film premiere.\n\n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Fragments
DESCRIPTION:Dir: James Scott | USA 2019 | 44 mins | Age Guide 12 |Lang: English \n\n\n\nFragments covers the trajectory of Derek Boshier working between a giant drawing\, World News\, which is about ‘the contrasts between nature and machinery’\, and a series of paintings titled Night and Snow which cover ‘fashion\, soccer\, video games\, rock music and mythologies’. The title Fragments also refers to Boshier’s own film work\, clips of which are integrated within this film. \nBoshier is a British artist living in Los Angeles. Associated with the Pop art movement in London in the sixties\, he studied at the Royal College of Art with the likes of David Hockney\, RB Kitaj\, Peter Blake and Pauline Boty. It is the landscape of America\, and particularly Hollywood\, that has long been such an influence on all of these artists. \nThe statement by the artist Richard Hamilton: ‘I don’t like art films” is perhaps the springboard for all of Scott’s films on artists. Equally\, David Lynch’s comment\, ‘art films are boring’\, sums up a broad attitude to the genre. Positioning himself as both a passionate lover of both art and movies\, Scott’s films directly challenge the negative assumptions of what ‘an art film’ can be. They ignite a sense of excitement\, mystery and wonder that resides within the making of both art and cinema. \nWhile the film closely follows the making of a specific painting or drawing\, Boshier tells off-hand stories commenting on and illuminating his practice. He remarks\, ‘it was Degas\, of all people\, who said\, ‘the making of a painting is like the perpetration of a crime – the artist never paints what he sees; he always paints what he wants other people to see’. \nAs with many of Scott’s films\, this documentary explores the nature of the creative process; the camera delving into the act\, becomes almost an extension of the work\, revealing the journey from first brushstroke or pencil mark to the finished canvas or drawing. \nThe film was started in the fall of 2018 when Boshier began working for an exhibition of paintings and drawings to open at Gazelli Art House in London\, a year later. The music is composed\, played and engineered by cellist Derek Stein.\n\n\n\nOfficial Selection of International Film Festival Rotterdam 2020

SUMMARY:Adam Barker-Mill: DUALITY - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:DUALITY brings together the filmic and sculptural world of filmmaker\, cinematographer and artist Adam Barker-Mill. \nPresented in partnership with John Hansard Gallery the exhibition features Barker-Mill’s first film in fifty years\, alongside a new chromatic light sculpture. \n“Obviously it is all about light. Light is the very essence of cinematography and light is the main material of my current work”                                                                            Adam Barker-Mill interviewed by Adrian Dannatt for MUBI\, 2021 \nAdam Barker-Mill (b.1940\, Wookey Hole\, Somerset) started his career in filmmaking before devoting himself to his art practice in the early 1980s. As a highly respected cinematographer\, Barker-Mill worked with a number of notable filmmakers throughout the 1960s and 1970s. He had long collaborations with the directors James Scott\, known for A Shocking Accident\, (Oscar winner for Best Short Film of 1983) and Barney Platts-Mills known for Bronco Bullfrog (1970) and Private Road (1971). \nA fascination with light has been a constant focus throughout his career. The illumination of the local Mendip caves was an early inspiration. He has always been intrigued by the mechanics and workings of cinematic equipment\, and has taken advantage of developments in technology (from the humble light bulb to tungsten-halogen to LED). The constantly moving and changing light source that is the sun has also played a significant role in his work: “My understanding of how to use light comes out of that formative cinematographic experience – however different the end result”. \nFor the exhibition DUALITY Barker-Mill has brought together the filmic and the sculptural. The film work Magnum Opus Part 1 comprises sequences of videos recorded on his iPhone and Sony Camcorder between 2004 and 2021. The iPhone now allows anyone to become the “fly-on-the-wall” observer that is at the core of the British documentary film. \nDuality is installed at John Hansard Gallery from 9 – 13 November 11am until 5pm daily. \nOn Tuesday 9 November at 6.30pm you can watch Fragments\, directed by James Scott\, with whom Adam Barker-Mill has collaborated on the production of a number of film projects.  The documentary focuses on the work of Derek Boshier\, a British artist associated with the Pop art movement in London in the sixties\, now living in Los Angeles. \n

SUMMARY:INVISIBLE
DESCRIPTION:  \nAn older woman self-isolates in a stranger’s tiny white attic. This film explores her experience of becoming…what? Invisible? \nINVISIBLE is made by Brenda Waite\, a performance artist aged 60 and Anna Cady\, an artist film maker aged 70. Brenda came to live in Anna’s attic at the beginning of the first lockdown. \nAs post menopausal women Brenda and Anna had discovered what it felt like to become invisible. But then there was Covid. And it was said\, “if all the old people stayed inside we could get on with our lives.”  The fight against ageism took on a whole new perspective. \nDeciding to become visible by making this film during lockdown\, Brenda and Anna explore what it means to experience imposed isolation in a small space. \nThis is a beautiful\, experimental film devised in the process of making; it incorporates physical theatre\, improvisation and existential comedy. \n“As post menopausal women we find that we become less visible; As women artists historically we were virtually not visible; \nAs a post-menopausal-female-performing-artist-isolated-in-a-tiny-white-attic-with-only-skylights-to-connect-with-the-outside-world Brenda became INvisible” \nINVISIBLE will be screened on a continuous loop. Running Time: 8 minutes. \n\nAudience Feedback: \n“Lockdown has affected me; there can be no-one who has not experienced some kind of compression of their life-force.  Even wearing purple is of little use when there is nowhere to go!” \n“Intensely evocative of isolation and the angst that accompanies it. I particularly liked the white aesthetic. The colour of mourning in some cultures. \nI’ll be watching it again!” \n  \nFor more information about the artists: \nBrenda Waite:  brendawaite.blogspot.com/ \nAnna Cady: www.annacady.com   \n  \nDuring SFW21 Brenda and Anna will be presenting an interdisciplinary workshop relating to the themes explored in INVISIBLE.

SUMMARY:Knit the Walls
DESCRIPTION:Artist Sarah Filmer will give a short talk and a tour of the 3 films that comprise ’i am the walls’ now installed in the new heritage exhibition at God’s House Tower. \n‘Knit the Walls’ is a long term co-production knitting project\, lead by artist\, Sarah Filmer. It offers the people of Southampton the opportunity to contribute to a community art work for future exhibition in God’s House Tower. Together they have knitting stones\, creating a soft\, warm\, cosy version of the city’s walls\, thinking and talking about what these medieval walls have witnessed and stored over hundred’s of years. \nConsistent with Sarah’s ideas around agency\, participation and contribution\, there are no rules of engagement – you decide how you approach this\, and make something according to your own ideas and skills. Of course\, Sarah is happy to supply materials\, support “i have taught many many people to knit”\, and a group of who knows who – all of which adds up to a fun\, interesting and unexpected experience. \nThere will be plenty of other activities taking place at God’s House Tower on that Saturday – another workshop\, the full tower exhibition\, and the delightful The Hoxton Bakehouse will be open\, providing most delicious coffee\, cakes and sandwiches. \nFrom 12 noon why not drop in to join the informal knit.  Provided will be wool\, needles\, crochet hooks\, conversation and a newly opened\, refurbished\, beautiful\, beautiful venue – an oasis of calm in Southampton’s old town. Come and ‘knit the walls’. \nAdmission to the tower is £5 for a 3 month pass\, but those knitters who have contributed previously to ‘Knit the Walls’\, whose work is being worn in the films\, will gain free admission on this occasion. \n  \n  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.

SUMMARY:Local Talent Showcase including The Guernica Children
DESCRIPTION:A collection of films produced by local filmmaking talent – plus a chance to see the winners of the 2019 SFW: Shorts competition. \nWe are also delighted to show the feature length documentary The Guernica Children which tells the story of 4\,000 Spanish children\, refugees from the Civil War\, who arrived in the UK in May 1937.  Throughout their time in Britain\, they were cared for\, fed and housed by the efforts of a vast voluntary organisation. Some would later return to Spain and while others made Britain their home.  Written\, produced and directed by award-winning Southampton Filmmaker\, Steve Bowles\, the film sheds light on a dark chapter of European history but equally celebrates the generosity and compassion which enabled the evacuation and care of the children.  The story resonates with many contemporary themes as it explores the fate of the children\, and casts light on the international and domestic turmoil of that time. \nThe Guernica Children\, along with a number of other films in this collection\, touch on themes of migration and journeys\, sanctuary and a sense of home\, freedom\, new horizons and new futures.  These themes are central to Southampton’s exploration and commemoration of Mayflower400 with projects and events to mark the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s pioneering voyage. \nJoin Southampton Film Week organisers\, City Eye\, in the Screening Room at Studio 144\, its new home with John Hansard Gallery on Guildhall Square\, Southampton.  Drop in for one session or stay for them all – this is an opportunity to enjoy the diverse work of just some fabulously talented filmmakers from the region. \nScreenings are FREE to attend. \nSCREENING SCHEDULE\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime\n\n\nFilm\n\n\nDirector\n\n\nLength\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.15\n\nLife in the Nature Zone\nSteve Bowles and Wordsworth Primary School\n6:00\n\n\nSongs from a Small Train\nPeter Thompson\n10:00\n\n\nThe Tide is Rising\nAlys Scott-Hawkins\, Peter Thompson\, Kevin Harper\n4:34\n\n\nPanphasic\nJosie Phillips\n03:22\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5 minute interval\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:45\n\nBus Stop\nVanessa Bailey\n09:27\n\n\nO Hunter Heart\nCarla MacKinnon\n07:07\n\n\nYou Are Not Alone\nJane Labous and Shona Hamilton\n08:20\n\n\nOutgrown\nCecily Lane Bedner\n6:00\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5 minute interval\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:15\n\nThe Lost House Key\nEdward and Carol Lyons\n1:30\n\n\nDovetail\nGeorgia Cotton\n14:00\n\n\nOut of the Ether\nChristopher Thom\n03:20\n\n\nTaking Delilah\nRachel Stephens\n09:16\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5 minute interval\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:45\n\nVideo Dazed\nSo.
