Curated by Professor Sarah Smith with Kelly Rappleye, the third episode of Moving Images Within Precarious Structures explores artistic approaches to the archive as engaging with precarious memory through moving image practice. How does artists’ moving image address archival gaps, exclusions, erasures and absences to evoke and create space for diasporic, exilic, migratory and displaced memory? This screening event features work by Kamal Aljafari, Morgan Quaintance, Suneil Sanzgiri, and Maryam Tafakory. Episode 3: Precarious Memory considers the role of moving image in mediating and producing cultural memory, exploring how artistic methods of sampling, imitation, fragmentation and aurality can activate the archive as a site of negotiation between the individual and the collective, the intimate and the political, history and memory, representation and exclusion. The screening programme reflects on how artists engage the precarity of memory itself across political contexts of displacement, exile, and repression, and between generations and geographies, using film as a tool to gather fragments of social and individual remembrance, redress misrepresentations, gaps and exclusions, and construct personal archives of living histories.

Through screenings, talks, workshops, and publishing, Moving Images Within Precarious Structures examines the ways precarity structures the aesthetics and politics of artist moving image, and how new ways of making, materialising and thinking the moving image can work in opposition to the conditions, effects and affects of precarity. _____ Access If you have any questions about access at this event, please contact Project Manager Annie Crabtree on scotland@lux.org.uk or text /​call 07394 042 450.

This is simply a dream castle. When I arrived, it was the April holiday, and there were almost no people on the road. Only the ancient buildings stood in the cold air, solemn and heavy, which made people feel awe.

We came here on a spontaneous visit one Sunday afternoon in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our wee boy loved seeing the &ldquo;old fashioned house&rdquo; and was so well looked after by all the staff, from the cash register to the flat and back out again.

We went round twice (with a shift change between visits!) and the insight into one story of no doubt thousands like it in Glasgow was fantastic. Plus our boy thoroughly enjoyed colouring in his wallie dug. A hidden gem that is well worth the wander through Garnethill.

This museum is a place where people have to punch in. I especially like the oil paintings in the museum. After seeing it, I feel a great enjoyment. The museum is also a favorite place for primary and secondary school students.

It is said that it can be traced back to the famous William Conquest period. It was built to commemorate St. Diego. It took hundreds of years to build and has been around for nearly a thousand years. It is the oldest religious building in the entire Scottish region. It is also a must-see for tourists.

George Square is located in Glasgow city center and is very conveniently accessible by train or subway. On nice days, you can sunbathe and watch pigeons in the square. It is close to the famous shopping street, where you can buy souvenirs, clothes, shoes and socks. There are also many restaurants and eateries to choose from.
