Exhibition 'Experimental Motion: the Art of Film Innovation' in Brighton Museum and Art Gallery
This new display tells the story of experimental film-making in Brighton & Hove, from 1896 to the present day. Brighton and Hove have played a rich and important part in international film history: early film-making pioneers George Albert Smith and James Williamson who became known as the Brighton School worked here at the turn of the 20th century, while contemporary filmmakers and moving image artists have cemented the city’s status as a hotbed of experimental film. Funded by the John Ellerman Foundation and delivered in partnership with Videoclub, Screen Archive South East and Cinecity.
