The UCL Mellon Programme and Freud Museum London

::: The Museum as Film Set :::

25 October - 8 November 2011

A three-part film series to mark the 25th anniversary of Freud Museum London

devised by Antony Hudek

Cinema has long expressed fascination for museums and exhibitions, and
museums are increasingly willing to welcome the moving image within their
precincts. This series proposes to look at this complex relationship from
a psychoanalytic perspective, by considering the camera's capacity to
work through museological spaces and histories.

Each screening will be followed by drinks and a discussion.
