Mat Collishaw - Retrospectre

Opens: 26/02/2010 Closes: 09/05/2010 BFI Southbank Gallery, London
A show inspired by the legendary Armenian Soviet filmmaker Sergei Paradjanov, who was imprisoned for his poetic, sensuous celluloid refutations of Socialist Realism and whose work the BFI are concurrently screening. This vivid combination of moving-image work and antique furniture promises Collishaw’s hallmark trade-off between repulsion and seduction.
