3rd FASHION IN FILM FESTIVAL

After two highly successful seasons in London and New York, the 3rd Fashion in Film Festival is proud to present Birds Of Paradise, an intriguing and intoxicating exploration of costume as a form of cinematic spectacle throughout the history of European and American cinema.

There will be exclusive screenings of films never before seen on UK screens, plus two special commissions as part of the season: an installation for Somerset House by the award-winning Jason Bruges Studio, and a London-wide Kinoscope Parlour installation, a collection of peephole machines designed by Mark Garside inspired by Thomas A. Edison’s kinetoscope.

This major series of screenings and special events will take place across some of London’s most prominent arts venues between 1 – 12 December 2010.

CAI GUO- QUIANG

Cai Guo-Qiang was born in 1957 in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province, China. Trained in stage design at the Shanghai Theatre Academy, his work has since crossed multiple mediums within art, including drawing, video and performance art. While living in Japan from 1986 to 1995, he explored the properties of gunpowder in his drawings, an inquiry that eventually led to his experimentation with explosives on a massive scale and to the development of his signature explosion events, exemplified in the series Projects for Extraterrestrials. Wildly poetic and ambitious at their core, these events aim to establish an exchange between viewers and the larger universe around them. His large-scale installations, which have drawn upon Eastern philosophy and contemporary social issues as a conceptual basis, utilize a site-specific approach to culture and history. Cai quickly achieved international prominence during his residence in Japan. Since 1995, he has lived in New York.
