Curator, artist and writer George Clark joins Catharine Des Forges and Selina Robertson in the ICO’s office to explore the archive and exhibition histories of one of the ICO’s most memorable artist moving image curatorial projects, ICO Essentials: The Secret Masterpieces of Cinema from 2008.

Comprising of six themed programmes of artists’ films, including newly restored classics and influential gems, George worked with six leading curators to bring this ground-breaking season to UK cinemas. In this conversation we re-visited the project’s ‘behind the scenes’ histories that changed the way artist film and video was seen and experienced in the cinema.
