London Short Film Festival

The Ludskis invite you to their third late-night happening and after party extravaganza. Expect a transcendent mixture of performance, installation, live music, film and many more art forms, curated by the inimitable Granny Ludski. Be in no doubt, this is the debut of a major new addition to the exhibition landscape of East London, if not the world. This is not just another gallery!
 
The Ludskis were bored and drained by bogus exhibitions and the banal moving image screenings of cinema and gallery. Forcing people to stand and watch tedious videos seemed mean-spirited. We wanted something more vital, with quality, depth and imagination.. This led ‘At Home with the Ludskis’ to curate a late night exhibition event in the old haunted Rio cinema in Dalston. With a wide range of artists from different fields, providing startling moving image, surreal musicianship, eerie installation, seductive performance, ‘At home with the Ludskis’ is a truly unique art event. All art forms will be there!
 
Confirmed for Winter Garden is French chanteuse Anne Pigalle, who has previously collaborated with Michael Nyman, Trevor Horn & ZTT Records, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Mario Testino, and who’s recent 2011 album L'Ame Erotique was released on i-tunes. She has been compared to Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich. Also performing will be artist collectives The Centre of Attention and House of O’Dwyer.
 
There will also be a programme of short films selected by the 9th London Short Film Festival and Granny Ludski.

Tickets for this event are available on the Rio website.
