The BF Artist Film Festival VII programme has been selected from over 500 applicants and curated to showcase current technical approaches and thematic concerns explored by moving image artists. Domesticity and banality, voyeurism and sexuality, navigating the Internet and our relationships within the urban environment, are all themes that have occurred naturally through the selection process.

PART I

You are welcome to a conversation in Ulf Lundin’s exhibition The Monument at the gallery. The Monument presents a photgraphic project based upon the area around Högdalstoppen, south of Stockholm, where Ulf Lundin has spent much time in recent years. The photographs depict a specific place but are also loaded with an underlying narrative dealing with dreams and reality. In the conversation artist Ulf Lundin, the writer Stefan Lindberg and the journalist Per Wirtén looks at the place from their different perspectives.

From press release:

From Press Release (in Swedish only):

Ulf Lundin är utbildad stillbildsfotograf och jobbar idag både med fotografi och video. I 5–9 har Lundin satt samman en mängd fotografier och videoklipp i ett kollage som utgör videoverket. Verket speglar det vardagliga arbetet på ett kontor där det egentliga porträtten av kontorsarbetarna inte är huvudsaken. Istället vill Lundin fråga åskådaren: “Hur lever vi våra liv?”

From Press Release (In Swedish only):

VEM ÄR ”DEN ANDRE”? Hur ska vi kunna gestalta relationen mellan ”vi” och ”dom”? Hur möter vi främlingen? Vem är främlingen? Vem är du och jag? Hur formas våra identiteter? Hur kan vi gestalta ”den Andre”?

MAC International is the MAC's first ever open arts prize, offering professional artists worldwide the opportunity to exhibit in the MAC.

A substantial prize of £20,000 will be awarded to one artist deemed to have made an outstanding contribution to the exhibition. This is the largest art prize in Ireland and one of the few major prizes in the UK.

The exhibition, which runs across all three MAC galleries, will offer you the very best in contemporary visual art across all art forms including sculpture, painting, photography, film, installation and performance.

They are hunters who themselves become prey. In 1960, Federico Fellini erected a questionable cinematic memorial to them in his famous film “La Dolce Vita.” He created the character of the “paparazzo,” the tabloid photographer whose name can be read as a combination of the words “pappatace” (sand fly) and “ragazzo” (boy). The paparazzo’s raison d'être: the covert following and stalking of more or less well-known personages with the aim of publishing exclusive photos of supposedly secret and personal situations.

We are pleased to present the group exhibition 2014. A selection of gallery artists including: Mamma Andersson, Lars Arrhenius, Thomas Broomé, Sara-Vide Ericson, Carl Hammoud, Tommy Hilding, Kent Iwemyr, Richard Johansson, Susanne Johansson, Lisa Jonasson, Klara Kristalova, Ulf Lundin, Maria Nordin, Dan Wolgers and others.

An exhibition about bureaucratic barriers, futility and the will to be free.
