MIDDLESEX HOSPITAL BLUES - opening next week!

Presenting our third and final show as curators-in-residence at @fitzroviachapel. Middlesex Hospital Blues centres around Derek Jarman‘s ‘Blue’ through a lovingly crafted new audio installation from @simonfisherturner, made with @swinton.tilda @flutterechoes @matthewlomax and @arupgroup

Also featuring work from @jenkinvanzyl - the exhibition continues our exploration into the chapel’s history as part of Middlesex Hospital, its specialist AIDS/HIV ward, and its eternal legacy of care and community.

Placed on the font, there will be an incredible Jarman piece courtesy of @amandawilkinsongallery

The Extraordinary Miss Flower comes to NYC! 2nd Oc

The Extraordinary Miss Flower comes to NYC! 2nd October 6-8pm. A special event as part of Taste of Iceland New York - The evening includes a Q&A on the film, the album, and the personal journey behind both, followed by the screening, with Emilíana closing things out with a short live performance. Sign up for free tickets at inspiredbyiceland.com

The Extraordinary Miss Flower brings to life the remarkable story of Geraldine Flower and the discovery of a suitcase full of passionate love letters from the 1960s and 70s, the find that led Emilíana Torrini back into the studio for her most personal album yet. Called "a true original" by Empire, the film premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and has since played to audiences across Europe and Australia.
