Denzil Forrester: Image, Music, Power
Denzil Forrester’s documentary, Denzil’s Dance (2019), is featured in the retrospective Image, Music, Power: Julian Henriques and Parminder Vir’s Work in Film and Television.
Spanning musical, documentary, agit-prop and essay film, this retrospective looks at some of Professor Julian Henriques and Parminder Vir OBE’s work as directors and producers in film and television over several decades. The programme has been developed to screen a series of important works and consider conditions of possibility, the political, social and aesthetic connections, that make movements and moments possible. The screenings and discussions should appeal to the younger generation looking for inspiration from the film history they’ve inherited as well as those who were there at the time.
Denzil’s Dance (2019) is a short documentary about Grenada-born artist Denzil Forrester, whose enigmatic paintings often depict dances, particularly reggae and dub nights, in the UK and Caribbean.
