Artists' Film Club: Random Acts

An event celebrating the ICA's Channel 4 Random Acts commissions with artists Duncan Campbell, Steven Claydon, Gail Pickering, Elizabeth Price and Mark Aerial Waller (with Douglas Park and Tim Goldie) featuring a unique screening of the newly commissioned shorts alongside live extensions of the work.

Duncan Campbell, Steven Claydon, Gail Pickering, Elizabeth Price and Mark Aerial Waller (with Douglas Park and Tim Goldie) contribute to a live event celebrating their commissions for Channel 4’s Random Acts series. The event profiles the five newly commissioned films, alongside a series of live performative events by Steven Claydon, Gail Pickering and Mark Aerial Waller that expand upon their new 3 minute works.

The broadcast of the ICA’s season of Random Acts commissions for Channel 4 commences on 4 December 2013 with the screening of Gail Pickering’s Karaoke (2013) and continues into early 2014 with works by Duncan Campbell, Steven Claydon, Elizabeth Price and Mark Aerial Waller.

The new short artists’ films commissioned and produced by the ICA and made by artists Duncan Campbell, Steven Claydon, Gail Pickering, Elizabeth Price and Mark Aerial Waller build on our strong reputation for championing artists’ film and moving image. These films will also be available to watch on the ICA and Random Acts websites.

Participating artist Mark Aerial Waller is in conversation with Steven Cairns, ICA Associate Curator of Artists’ Film and Moving Image, for Culture Now on Friday 6 December.
