Front Cover of the Catalogue for the Exhibition Recent British Video

A short exhibition of cutting edge video works from Britain

This package of Recent British Video was shown widely in Britain and abroad before coming to New Zealand. The exhibition was only in Christchurch for 2 days as the high cost of hiring these tapes – around ₤51 per day for each programme – prohibited a more lengthy time slot at each venue.

The videos were all produced after 1980 and they were works which resisted or stood apart from dominant ideological practices.
