Overview

Today’s exhibition space for moving image work extends far beyond the theatre to art galleries, urban rooftops and even building facades. Hear from an artist and a filmmaker about the challenges and possibilities of working with short formats, the creative process behind video art for installation, and writing and directing for film. Learn about models of funding and distribution as well as ways the language of the medium changes from one setting to the next.

Moving images is a partnership between Dubai International Film Festival, Sharjah Art Foundation and Art Dubai, launched in 2013, that explores the shared territory between artist’s films and filmmaker’s art.
