Screening: Palestine Cinema Days Around The World

Date: Monday, 2 November 2026
Time: 4-6pm
Mosaic Rooms, London

LUX and Mosaic Rooms will present a screening of Kamal Aljafari’s ‘With Hasan in Gaza’ (2025, 106’) as part of the fourth edition of Palestine Cinema Days Around the World, preceded by Jumana Manna’s ‘Blessed Blessed Oblivion’ (2010, 21’) from the LUX collection.

Together, these two films provide a rich portrait of Palestinian daily life, one in East Jerusalem, the other in Gaza. Tracing manifestations of masculinity in Palestine beyond the stereotypes of Palestinian men that have often circulated in Western media, the films delve into subcultures and the playful, performative and intimate gestures of the everyday.

- The total runtime of both films is 127 minutes.
- Both films will be screened with English subtitles.
- Entry is free and donations to groups working within Palestine are encouraged. There will be QR codes available in the space that can be scanned to make a donation
- No booking is required.
- The screening will take place at Mosaic Rooms’ Salon space. There is lift access and the space is accessible for wheelchairs 80cm or less in width
- Accessible toilets are available in the building and all toilets are all-gender
- See the link in our bio for more information

Organised by Filmlab Palestine, the 4th edition of Palestine Cinema Days Around The World takes place on November 2, 2026 the 109th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration. Palestine Cinema Days Around the World is a global platform that transcends borders to bring Palestinian stories to the forefront of the world’s conscience.

Read and listen to CJ Salapare’s new text on LUX artist Miko Revereza’s work, now on our website.

This New Artist Focus essay offers an insightful exploration of Revereza’s practice. Salapare considers how Revereza’s tenacity in the face of restrictive legal, social and political conditions is both a necessity and a method. Across Revereza’s works, movement takes on many roles: as something spatial and temporal, as subject and object, and as something both sought and prevented.

As Salapare writes:
‘Nimbleness is born from necessity, and resourcefulness is Revereza’s métier. The filmmaker, importantly, does not aestheticize diaspora’s realities. Instead, he stays with the moments where its politics and poetics meet. Dwelling, in its domestic and experiential registers, takes on charged dimensions in light of the artist’s lived experience.’

PV: Thursday 8 October 2026, 6 - 8pm at LUX, London

We are excited to announce LVA50, a year-long programme marking fifty years since the formation of London Video Arts (LVA).

The programme opens at LUX with Late-Night Conversations, an exhibition of works by two LVA founding members, Stuart Marshall and Tamara Krikorian.

Co-curated by Conal McStravick and Holly Argent, the exhibition re-stages Marshall’s ‘Privileged View’ (1976) and Krikorian’s ‘Breeze’ (1975) for the first time in fifty years.

Alongside the two installations, an archive display and a programme of short videos by both artists trace the friendship, synergies and frictions between their ideas.

LVA50 is a 12 month programme of activity developed in partnership with Moving Image Review & Art Journal (MIRAJ), the University of Westminster’s Centre for Research and Education in Arts and Media (CREAM) and a network of UK venues including Spike Island (Bristol), Ambika P3 (London), BALTIC (Gateshead), g39 (Cardiff), LUX Scotland (Glasgow) and Vivid Projects (Birmingham).

About the LVA50 Project
London Video Arts (LVA) was a pioneering artist-run organisation founded in 1976 to support, distribute and exhibit video art in Britain. As a predecessor organisation to LUX, it played a central role in the distribution, exhibition and critical development of video art during a period of rapid experimentation. Founded by artists including David Hall, Tamara Krikorian and Stuart Marshall, LVA championed video as an autonomous artistic practice before later evolving into London Electronic Arts and eventually forming part of LUX.

LVA50 is a 12 month programme of activity developed in partnership with Moving Image Review & Art Journal (MIRAJ), the University of Westminster’s Centre for Research and Education in Arts and Media (CREAM) and a network of UK venues including Spike Island (Bristol), Ambika P3 (London), BALTIC (Gateshead), g39 (Cardiff), LUX Scotland (Glasgow) and Vivid Projects (Birmingham). LVA50 is supported by BFI Screen Heritage Fund, awarding National Lottery funding.

LUX is delighted to welcome Danielle Dean and her work to the LUX collection. Working with archives, social practice, performance, video, drawing and sculpture, Dean investigates the recursive loops between the circulation of ideas, the history of colonialism, and the material reproduction of global capitalism. Operating across media and with a variety of collaborators and participants, she tries to find fault lines of failure and futurity within this seemingly closed circuit. 

Dean’s practice is shaped by consideration of how modes of production, materials and the consumer items that surround us shape and are equally shaped by collective aspirations, ideologies, and language. Art in particular holds this tension. 

Dean’s most recent work, ‘Hemel’ (2024) considers her hometown Hemel Hempstead’s relationship to class, migration and industrialisation by reenacting aspects of a sci-fi B-movie, ‘Quatermass 2’ (1957), which was shot in Hemel Hempstead. Dean explains that Quatermass 2 ‘obscures the fear of the other’ and societal hysteria, channeling them through a fictionalised, other-worldy entity. 

In ‘Hemel’, Dean wanted to ‘figure a way of capturing the alien entity’ which takes the form of black slime that oozes down the town’s streets, while also considering the political reality from which this metaphorical fear was created.

For more details about Dean’s work and the experiences that ground her practice, head to our website. 

We proudly now distribute 11 works by Dean produced since 2011. If you are interested in screening any of these works, please get in touch with distribution[at]lux.org.uk.

Online Lecture: Visual archives as a means to process trauma: Azza El-Hassan

Date: Wednesday 30 September 2026
Time: 5-6pm BST
Online [Zoom and Youtube]

The fourth online lecture in the ‘Sharing Strategies: Caring for moving image in the margins’ programme will see Azza El-Hassan reflect on her encounters with the visual traces left by colonial violence as a filmmaker and researcher with The Void Project, a multimedia production space that investigates artistically the effect of colonial plunder on the formation of a modern Palestinian narrative.

El-Hassan will explore the visual remains of plunder - photos, films and media equipment that have survived a violent event and emerged damaged by the violence. She will discuss her practice documenting these visual remains and the reclamatory potential that this material holds when it is not only preserved, but put to use. By doing so, she will argue that encounters with this material are necessary for both the object and subject of the encounter in order to process violence and produce a new, modern visual experience.

- This online lecture is free, but registration is required if joining via Zoom.

- Live captions will be provided.

- More information and a viewing link can be found in our bio.

This event is part of the ‘Sharing Strategies: Caring for moving image in the margins’ programme, a series of online lectures and a study day. ‘Sharing Strategies’ is made possible with the support of the BFI Screen Heritage Fund, awarding National Lottery funding.

Event: ‘Showing Up’ - LUX London Critical Forum 25/26

The LUX London Critical Forum present ‘Showing Up’, a collaborative show gathering the films, performances and works that have grown from their shared experiences. Resisting organisation around a single theme or a common position, it instead offers a moment within an ongoing process of thinking together. The works, while distinct, are loosely connected to the conversations, questions and ways of working that emerged over the course of the year.

Participating artists include: Anisa Sabiri, Avisa Yazdani, Ben Dawson, Chuck Blue Lowry, Coby-Rae Crosbie, Dino Zhang, Dominique Rivoal, Durre Shahwar, George Marigold, Hadas Amster, Ishy Pryce-Parchment, Leena Habiballa, Mollie Tilley, Muhammad Muhammad, Nicolas Lejtreger, Saki Maruyama, Sohaila Baluch, Susanne Dietz, Tamara Tyrer, Tomás Dettmar, Zish and Ziyi Wang
