#AMIF2015 Workshop: The Love(s) Show: Parts 1, 2 & 3
Book now!
As part of #AMIF2015's special focus on the life and legacy of Stuart Marshall (1949-1993) artist Conal McStravick will lead a reading and performance workshop with writer Laura Guy and filmmaker Ed Webb-Ingall. Workshop participants will engage in a series of exercises departing from Stuart Marshall's writing in order to explore ideas relating to collectivity in speech, performance and video making.
Informed by the tripartite structure of Stuart Marshall's The Love Show, a series of open and energetic exercises, including collective reading, collaborative annotation and group movement, will invite participants to engage with Marshall's influential essay "Video: From Art To Independence" (1985) alongside the original working script "The Paths of Least Resistance", which later became The Love Show, Part 2 (1980).
Approaching the texts through these deconstructive, playful and anarchic methods, participants will work in groups to challenge the forms and ideas of original material; to adapt some of the strategies and processes undertaken; and consider the strategies revealed by Marshall's actors Bruce Bayley and Grazyna Monvid.
Light refreshments will be provided for this event.
This workshop is limited to 20 reservations. Booking essential and available via LUX Scotland’s Eventbrite. In the event of full booking, you may request that your name be added to a wait-list, administered by [email protected].
