About
On the occasion of Lucy Raven’s solo exhibition, the artist has curated a series of screenings taking place in the evenings at the Serpentine Gallery andtransforming the Gallery into a pop-up cinema. Produced in collaboration with MUBI. The first session features Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Philip Kaufman, 1978, 115’); Minnie the Moocher (Max Fleischer, 1932, 7’6’’) and Limbo: The Organized Mind (Jim Henson & Raymond Scott, 1966, 4’22’’). Sessions are introduced by film theorists, artists and writers.
Raven’s art focuses on the marginal spaces in image production – what happens behind the camera or between the frames of a film. With a true aficionado’s eye, she has handpicked a film programme spanning nine decades of cinema, pairing classic shorts and rarities with cult features and animations guaranteed to appeal to those in search of new discoveries as well as the opportunity to enjoy old favourites in this rare gallery setting.
