MOVING IMAGE CLUB IS A SERIES OF ONGOING, PUBLIC DISCUSSIONS, TAKING PLACE IN VARIOUS LOCATIONS IN AMSTERDAM. EACH EVENT IS HOSTED BY ARTIST RUTH LEGG AND INCLUDES AN INVITED GUEST FROM THE VISUAL ARTS WHO IS ASKED TO PRESENT A NUMBER OF MOVING IMAGE CLIPS, WHICH IN TURN FORM THE BASIS OF A GROUP DISCUSSION. GUESTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO SELECT VIDEO CLIPS THAT ARE OF PARTICULAR INTEREST FOR OR INFLUENCE ON THEM. THESE COULD INCLUDE ARTIST’S VIDEOS, HOLLYWOOD MOVIES, TV PROGRAMMES, MUSIC VIDEOS, HOME RECORDINGS, ADVERTISEMENTS, ETC. THE NEW SESSION OF MOVING IMAGE CLUB, BEGINNING IN EARLY SPRING 2019 HAS SHIFTED ITS FOCUS SLIGHTLY AS GUESTS ARE ASKED TO LIMIT THEIR CHOICE TO MATERIAL FOUND ONLY ON YOUTUBE.THE OBJECTIVE OF MOVING IMAGE CLUB IS TO CREATE A PATH THROUGH THE VAST, INDISTINCT AND ENDLESSLY AVAILABLE MATERIAL OF YOUTUBE AND TO USE THE ARTIST, WITH THEIR ABILITY TO INTERPRET IMAGES AND CULTURE AS A GUIDE. BY FOCUSING DIRECTLY ON THE PRESENTED MATERIAL AND OUR EXPERIENCE OF IT THE AIM IS TO RESTRICT A SPECIFIC HISTORICAL OR THEORETICAL INTERPRETATION AND THE NEED TO DRAW CONCLUSIONS. INSTEAD MOVING IMAGE CLUB PROVIDES A SPACE FOR RANDOM CONNECTIONS TO BE MADE AND FOR IDEAS TO REMAIN UNFINISHED, MUCH IN THE SPIRIT OF YOUTUBE ITSELF. MOVING IMAGE CLUB WAS FOUNDED IN JULY 2016.
