OPERA

The launch of a new series of artists’ film programmes compiled by Artprojx especially for Late at Tate Britain. Selected and introduced by Artprojx’s director David Gryn, these unusual and inspiring films are linked to Modern Painters: The Camden Town Group through music and performance. The music hall has been transposed to the opera and contemporary classical music. These films include originally composed music and collaborations between visual artists and composers which emerge in the spatial logic of opera; from anarchic animations to baroque staging of the body via the hysterical clarity of the operatic voice.

An artists film selection featuring:

Alice Anderson, Martha Colburn, Haris Epaminonda, Karen Knorr, Rut Blees Luxemburg, Tania Mouraud, Michelle Naismith, Mariele Neudecker, Jayne Parker, Sophy Rickett, Susanne Winterling

Films selected by David Gryn, Rut Blees Luxemburg, Sophy Rickett
