Works For Television

Save Me Stuart Hilton, 1992

Short artist film & video works made for TV. Experience late night TV during the day in the region's smallest & cosiest travelling cinema.

In the 1990s, when there were only four channels on UK TV, if you stayed up late enough, you could expect to see art on your TV. Artists' work found its way onto UK television screens - sporadically - from around 1970 with works like This is a Television Receiver, by pioneering video artist David Hall, br /oadcast unannounced. The subject- like most artistic engagements with television in the 1970s and 1980s - was television itself.

These works were co-commissions for the Arts Council of Great Britain/ England, with the BBC or Channel Four, through schemes such Experimenta and Animate. Works for Television is programmed for AV Festival 08 by Gary Thomas, Co-Director, Animate Projects.
