About
Nominated by filmmakers shortlisted for the 2014 Film London Jarman Award - the accolade that recognises artists who are in our times what Derek Jarman was to his – Selected 5 represents what’s exciting, challenging and sometimes perplexing about artists’ film today.
This year’s Selected offering features a strong sense of commentary on contemporary culture. Kate Cooper’s Rigged explores the objectification of women and the increasing plasticisation of culture; whilst Lucy Beech’s Cannibals presents a satirical look at the cult of self help.
Selected is a collaboration between artists’ film platform videoclub and Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network (FLAMIN). For full programme details visit: www.videoclub.org.uk
