Experimental Film Club Presents
Tony Hill – Gravity Play
Monday / 6.30pm / October 20th
Irish Film Institute / 6 Eustace Street / Temple Bar / Dublin 2
Tony Hill has consistently applied an interest
in space, place, viewpoint and orientation to his practice as an artist and
film-maker. His bizarre and sometimes humorous vantage points make us rethink
our assumptions about perspective, gravity, scale and movement. Developing his
own camera rigs and ingeniously using mirrors and unusual lenses he exploits
the great potential for film to see in different ways.
This programme is presented at IFI by EFC in association
with DMARC(Digital Media and Arts Research Centre) at UL and Indie Cork Film
Festival 2014.
