Shine So Hard + Q&A

This screening is followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers John Smith and Bill Butt, reunited for the first time since their Echo and the Bunnymen collaboration. John Smith is one of the UK’s best loved artist filmmakers, since 1972 he has made over forty film, video and installation works that have been widely shown internationally in galleries, cinemas and on television. In 2013 he won Film London’s prestigious Jarman Award. Bill Butt was Echo and the Bunnymen’s lighting engineer, know for his dramatic and surreal staging, going on to make many of their music videos. Artist Chris Paul Daniels, currently showing in our Safe exhibition, will chair the Q&A.
