Often one of the most popular and well attended nights throughout the festival, the collection of artists presenting work at the Westbourne Studios feature on Bowieart, David Bowie’s art website that allows the online community direct access to the talents of young artists, giving them the exposure they deserve at an important time in their careers. As with past events, the screening is sure to be a popular night with guests enjoying rarely seen work by a selection of exciting emerging artists based in the UK and USA working in film today. The most recent selection includes a mélange of wit, absurdity, twisted narrative, popular culture and escape into the downright fantastical.
