THE TIMES BFI 52nd LONDON FILM FESTIVAL
14-30 October 2008
The festival’s annual celebration of artists’ film and video will take
place on 25-26 October 2008, presenting a diverse selection of
international work in eight screenings that open a window onto a wide
range of creativity.
This year’s selection includes special programmes devoted to the work
of Nathaniel Dorsky, Alina Rudnitskaya, Ben Rivers and Michel Auder.
Films by the radical French theorist Guy Debord will be shown in new
35mm prints. New approaches to documentary and ethnography recur
throughout the weekend, which presents established and emerging
artists in a curated survey of innovation in the moving image. Several
makers will be present to discuss their work and two continuous
installations will be shown in the BFI Southbank Studio.
Curated by Mark Webber for The Times BFI 52nd London Film Festival.
