Film

John Smith’s films are renowned for their formal ingenuity, subversive wit and oblique storytelling. Over the past 50 years he has created a wide variety of film, video and installation works that have been shown in independent cinemas and art galleries around the world and awarded major prizes at many international film festivals. In 2013 he was the winner of the UK’s prestigious Jarman Award, which celebrates the spirit of experimentation, imagination and innovation in the work of artist filmmakers. John Smith’s films are in the collections of Tate Gallery, Arts Council England and MoMA New York, amongst many others. Retrospectives of his work have been presented at international film festivals in 16countries.

On 1, 2 and 3 december Kriterion Amsterdam will host three screenings where John Smith will be present for a Q&A with the audience afterwards.
