Karen Mirza and Brad Butler have been making films together for
seven years. They are the co-founders of no.w.here, a new centre
for artist film production in London. They regularly curate screenings
of artists' film and video in the UK and co-programme the first
ever experimental film festival in India - Experimenta. This
screening will feature three of the artists recent 16mm films that
- in the tradition of structural filmmaking - explore
the process, material and construct of film itself; and will include
their two-screen projection, 'Where a straight line meets
a curve'. The programme will conclude with a selection of 60 second
films made by international artists to celebrate the launch of no.w.here.

Films
Where a straight line meets a curve
2003, Karen Mirza/Brad Butler/David
Cunningham, 30 mins. 16mm, 2-screen projection, sound, colour
"A multi-layered work of expanded cinema, a film which we can
sit to or walk around while forming personal mappings through the
visual descriptions of a single room. Fragments in compressed time
that reside in a wide field of universal enquiry made accessible,
through this familiar yet unrecognisable
space" (Lous Benassi E-M Arts Naples)
Inertia (provisional title)
2005, Karen Mirza /Brad Butler, 5 mins
16mm, silent, b/w
This is a work in progress, a single screen version of a three screen
installation. The image of the sea filmed from under a pier. The
pier's structure and framing evokes the apparatus of the early camera
while the frozen sea refers to the final image of Wavelength
by Michael Snow.
Bombay Heights (provisional title)
2005, Karen Mirza/Brad Butler, 8 mins,
16mm, colour
This film is composed of three seperate100ft rolls of 16mm film,
the first roll was shot entirely in camera on location in Mumbai
(Bombay). The second roll is a re-working of this material on the
optical printer. Roll three is a combination of rolls one and rolls
two. This is a work in progress about representation and re-presentation
of, the space between buildings. no.w.here
60 second films
To celebrate the launch of no.w.here over 60 Uk and International
artists were invited to make new work (1 minute films). This programme
will also feature a selection of some of these films and videos
from the new forthcoming no.w.here DVD.
