ONLINE | RICHARD LAYZELL : MARVELL PARK
Apr 1 - Sep 30, 2021
Marvell Park is a new film produced by Richard Layzell as part of his ongoing work as LUX’s Creative Ecologist engaged with the material and context of Waterlow Park in Highgate where the organisation is based. Tracking the extraordinary year of 2020, the film is a playful and personal mediation on a state of being and interacting with nature and the space of the park. The film continues Layzell’s research project, The Naming which seeks to challenge and question how, through categorization and naming, we distance ourselves from aspects of the natural world and the cultural world.
 
Richard Layzell has been a leading innovator in the fields of live art, video and installation since the 1980s. He has been commissioned by most major public galleries and museums across the UK and completed many international artist residencies. As a mentor and facilitator he’s devised an individual approach to sharing knowledge and supporting others. He has pioneered socially engaged practice and worked with many diverse communities nationally and internationally. His interactive installation Tap Ruffle and Shave was experienced by 100,000 people of all ages and abilities on its UK tour. He is the author of Live Art in Schools, Enhanced Performance (ed. Deborah Levy) and Cream Pages (ed. Joshua Sofaer), an honorary associate of the National Review of Live Art and a course leader in fine art at University of the Arts London.

SWITCHERS : ACORN
Jul 10 - Aug 14, 2021
LUX is delighted to present our upcoming exhibition Acorn featuring a new moving image work by film/theatre collective Switchers. 
 
Taking its inspiration from the world and characters in Octavia Butler’s science fiction novel Parable of the Talents, Acorn (2021) is a unique work of ‘event-cinema’ in which a group of people living together in a small rural community struggles to survive within a world of economic and ecological breakdown. 
 
The script for the film was developed through a ‘playworld’ method adopted from Vygotskian pedagogy and performed by Switchers, a theatre/film group of young people from London and Mid Powys, Wales. Its members are Jamie Baker, Merlyn Hawthorne, Ellis Holt, Ruth Oshunkoya, Prince Owusu, Mary Yekini and Caitlin Williams. Directed by the group’s facilitator Emanuel Almborg.
