Short profile:
Film and Video Umbrella's commissions are designed to give the fullest possible expression to the creative voice of the artist. While each project follows its own unique, individual course, what they all have in common is a central emphasis on high-quality production and presentation.
Detailed description:
Benefitting from a supportive, creative environment (and from the extensive technical and curatorial expertise that the organisation has to offer) the commissioning opportunities that Film and Video Umbrella is able to develop, in conjunction with a diverse range of partner venues, are notable for the close collaborations that are forged: with artists, and also with venues.
Exploring contemporary themes and emerging aesthetic trends, Film and Video Umbrella projects seek to capture something of the spirit of the moment while also reflecting on a wider sense of place. As well as bringing internationally acclaimed artists' work to all parts of the UK, many of these commissions actively engage with the particular nature of the individual locations in which they are either made or staged, and often help to illuminate their larger social, cultural and art-historical context.
