Clear Spot
Last Movies. Artist and writer Stanley Schtinter is interviewed by producer and curator Gareth Evans about his most recent project, Last Movies, which is 'an alternative view of the first century of cinema according to the final films watched by a selection of notable figures shortly before their deaths.' An ongoing event series at London's ICA, and soon to take residence at the Watershed in Bristol, Schtinter's project challenges all of the calcified criteria that is usually used to form and signpost a curated programme. The accompanying book, published by Tenement Press, has been described by Laura Mulvey as 'very strange and deeply thought provoking,' and by Alan Moore as 'profound and riveting, a remarkable achievement.'
