Mat Collishaw's installation work

Contemporary artist Mat Collishaw has created a new commission in response to the highly creative work of the late Georgian/Armenian film director and artist Sergei Paradjanov (1929–1990).

Collishaw has used a combination of antique objects and contemporary forms of moving image devices, in order to create a work defined by his distinct style, which poetically conveys the spirit of Paradjanov's artistic endeavor.

The exhibition opens 26 Feb 2010 and will coincide with BFI Southbank's Sergei Paradjanov film season in Mar 2010.
