Join us at Tate for a screening of Gerard Ortín Castellví’s trilogy of films exploring new modes food of production, distribution, and consumption.
Watch the premiere of Spanish born, London based filmmaker Gerard Ortín Castellví’s last chapter in his trilogy of films, Bliss Point 2023, alongside previous chapters Future Foods 2021 and Agrilogistics 2022.
Together, and signalling current environmental transformations, the films explore new modes of production, distribution, and consumption of food. They reveal the entanglement of automation and human labour, the ways in which the aesthetics and the politics of food intersect, and how food is perceived, made digestible and consumed, pointing towards an uncertain near future of agricultural speculation.
As part of this event, Delfina Foundation Residency Curator Erin Li will be in conversation with the artist.
This partnership event with Tate, and will take place at Tate Modern’s Starr Cinema. This partnership event evolves out of Delfina Foundation’s long running thematic programme, The Politics of Food.
