Kayla Parker, artist film-maker and researcher with Plymouth University, looks at Luke Fowler’s collaborative audiovisual installation Composition for Flutter Screen, made with Japanese composer Toshiya Tsunoda for the 2008 Yokohama Triennial, and re-presented for the British Art Show in Plymouth. The gallery talk is FREE, starts at 1pm and lasts 50 to 60 minutes, with some of the time being spent in the installation space. Composition for Flutter Screen is the artwork that has generated by far the most heated comments from visitors to BAS7 in Plymouth (as reported by the exhibition invigilators). In her talk, Kayla Parker will explore aspects of the artwork in relation to the evolution of Luke Fowler’s practice and the examination of cinematic apparatus in materialist film… and suggest reasons why people are getting so irate about an elegant and intelligent audiovisual installation that creates a place for contemplation and reflection.
