Exploring Jeff Keen
Saturday 19 November 2011
Old Courtroom, 118 Church Street, Brighton
Presentations and discussion 11:00-15:30h

Brighton-based artist and film-maker Jeff Keen is one of the great figures of the British postwar avant-garde. Keen's work embodies a wild spirit of anarchic play, a fascination with surrealism, and a love of popular culture. A year-long retrospective in 2011/12 of Keen's work will take place throughout Brighton & Hove. The retrospective will be launched with the event Exploring Jeff Keen, a day of presentations, screenings and discussion on Keen’s work and its curation. Speakers include Frank Gray (Cinecity and Screen Archive South East), Stella Keen (Jeff Keen's daughter), William Fowler (Curator, Artists’ Moving Image, BFI) and Curators Jenny Lund and Suzie Plumb of Brighton Museum & Art Gallery.

Tickets are free but please reserve as space is limited. Please reserve a place by calling Brighton Museum & Art Gallery events on 03000 290902.

Artist Ben Rivers presents a double-bill featuring films by Jeff Keen--hero of British underground cinema--and dreamy Bela Lugosi vehicle White Zombie, described by Keen as "possibly the most beautiful film ever."

Not long after we started Brighton Cinematheque in 1996, we came across long-term Brightonian Jeff Keen - and after that we used to do at least one show with him a year - explosive shows where he would set up as many projectors as possible, so by the end of the night we would be running an incredible number of super-8, 16mm, and whatever else projectors simultaneously, spilling way over the Cinemascope screen in a cacophonous dirge of white noise and image. I love Jeff Keen - he's a film wizard! - BR
