Jim Hobbs and Louise Colbourne are screening a revised version of From Slapstick to Horror as part of the Latitude Contemporary Art programme this year on the 16th July. The screening includes a selection of artists film and video works that show intense physicality on screen, ranging from the comedy of slap-stick through to more demanding performances and scenarios that are more closely aligned with horror. 
This screening will also include a section of vintage cinematic footage from films spanning the years from 1930 to the present, with a live soundtrack accompaniment by DJ Harry. We will also preview Mordant Music’s new score, commissioned by the BFI, for Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí’s 1929 surrealist
classic Un Chien Andalou
