Map of UK in 1894

Following Patrick Keiller's acclaimed films London (1994), Robinson in Space (1997) and The Dilapidated Dwelling (2000), The City of the Future is the artist's latest project as AHRB Research Fellow at the Royal College of Art in London. The City of the Future explores contrasts between the familiarity of old city fabric, the strangeness of the past and the newness of present-day experience. With archive film of UK landscapes from the beginnings of cinema c1896-1903, the project develops a critique of present-day and possible future spatial experience. Keiller will talk about the project before screening the latest version of a work which weaves a fictional narrative into the exhaustive collection of early footage which he has meticulously catalogued.
