Living London: Gerry Fox

A new exhibition at the Project Space 176 features a new work by Gerry Fox realized as part of a residency working with the Collection curator, local young people and the building.

For his first major solo exhibition, Gerry Fox will present Living London, a single work made up of a series of synchronised multiple screen film installations inspired by London. In the space of 30 minutes the work will take the viewer on a series of journeys through life, through London and through the restored Methodist Chapel of 176.

Fox's work presents a portrait of London and evokes the physical sensation of being immersed in a city's ever changing environment. Living London imparts differing scenes of London life, from the city's historic and contemporary sites to dizzying portrayals of every-day occurrences.

Drawing on a wealth of filmmaking experience, Fox uses his advanced technical skills to offer a fresh perspective on the notion of a city and its inhabitants. These new films, shot from point-of-view perspective with a wide-angle lens, combine both new and archival footage. Fox makes tangible films power to evoke the spatial and temporal sensations experienced in dreams, in particular kinæsthesia and the physiological perception of movement through space

The exhibition runs from Thursday January 31st to Sunday April 20th. The gallery is open Thursday and Friday from 11am to 3pm and Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 6pm.

The exhibition is free to members or residents of Camden.
