Exhibition

Joanna Hogg / GB, 2013 / 104 min.

Polished cinematic riddle concerning the fears of a couple of bohemian artists whose comfortable lives are upended by the imminent sale of their eccentric London home. A sublimely undercooled portrait and one of the oddest and most daring British films currently out.

poster Exhibition (Joanna Hogg, GB 2013)

The mysterious duo of artists H (played by conceptual artist Liam Gillick) and D (played by Viv Albertine of The Slits) live in a beautiful, modernist home in London full of cubes, ceiling-to-floor windows and its own, eccentric lift. There is palpable tension between them: H is considerably more successful than D whose performance art is as yet underappreciated.

Joanna Hogg Retrospective

From 8 January through 4 February, Eye will highlight the oeuvre of British photographer, screenwriter, and filmmaker Joanna Hogg. During these four weeks, all of Joanna Hogg's films will be screened.

Hogg will visit Eye for two talks: on 27 January, a special evening dedicated to her working methods, inspirations, and collaborations will take place. Using excerpts from her films, ranging from her earliest (previously unseen) cinematic experiments to her most contemporary work, recurring themes in her work will be explored. Her first and last short films will also be screened.

On 28 January, a conversation between Tilda Swinton and Joanna Hogg will go into how their lives, particularly the relationship between mothers and daughters, influenced the films they made together, such as The Souvenir and The Eternal Daughter. On 28 January, Swinton and Hogg will introduce a screening of The Souvenir.
