Spectacle: A Portrait of Stuart Sherman (2013)
Online 2 to 16 November 2015
Launch event with Robin Deacon – Monday November 2 at 7pm
For LADA Screens 5 we are screening the film ‘Spectacle: A Portrait of Stuart Sherman (2013)’ by artist Robin Deacon.
‘Spectacle: A Portrait of Stuart Sherman’, Deacon’s first full-length feature film, represents a major departure from his established practice. It includes Deacon’s re-enactments of Sherman’s work, as well as exclusive interviews with Sherman’s colleagues, collaborators and friends.
Watch the film for free on the LADA Screens video channel between 2 and 16 November 2015.
LADA Screens is a series of free, online screenings of seminal performance documentation, works to camera, short films/video and archival footage. It is part of Live Online, LADA’s dedicated space where you can watch short videos and films drawn from LADA’s Study Room or generated through our programmes and initiatives.
Each screening will be available to view for a limited time only, and will be launched with a live event at the White Building in Hackney Wick, London. Online art magazine, thisistomorrow will also feature the films on their website for the duration of the screenings.
