CANARY WHARF SCREEN



Birds Eye View: Past, Present, Future
@ THE LONDON UNDERGROUND

21 May - 17 August 2014


Canary Wharf Screen is an innovative motion-picture screening programme initiated by Art on the Underground. Presented on one of the capital’s largest public projection screens. This exciting seasonal programme presents leading contemporary and historical artists’ moving image.

Canary Wharf tube station is a London Underground station on the Jubilee line and was opened by Ken Livingstone setting an escalator in motion on 17 September 1999. Over 40 million people pass through the station each year, making it not only the busiest station on the London Underground outside Central London but also the busiest that serves only a single line.


Birds Eye View’s season Past, Present, Future spotlights the diverse talents of women filmmakers. This site-specific programme explores different ways of using film and of engaging with the space of Canary Wharf Screen.

In part 3, from 17th July - 17th of August, the programme looks to the future and new approaches to film. Whether through animation, painting, storytelling or sound, these films explore ideas about empowerment, the workplace and the reinterpretation of space.

“Workers leaving the factory (again)” will be screened in Part 3.
