Singlescreen: Performance

On 27 February 2008 VIVID opens Singlescreen: Performance, the pilot programme towards a new strand which focuses on presenting contemporary moving image work for screen.

Performance is a changing programme of single screen installations which features seminal works from the 1970’s rarely seen in the UK alongside the best recent work from artists based in the West Midlands.

The marriage of performance and film creates a very particular dynamic and the programme will investigate the ways in which performance engages with the mechanics of filmmaking to create a new form. Performance ranges from classic performance documentation to subtle and multiple explorations of movement and choreography.
