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 will be present to enact his cinematic performance ‘Point Source’ and for a Q&A after the screenings.

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.
