Imagined Lines By Matthew Hammond

Matthew Hammond's exhibition is a selection of photographs from four bodies of work about the urban landscape and our association with it. British Landscapes, the most recent body of work in the collection, features everyday locations which have become landmarks for all the wrong reasons - where disaster struck, murders took place and tragedy took centre stage.

Exhibition Opening: Thurs 2 Oct, 6.30-8.30pm. Drinks will be served. Exhibition continues until Fri 7 Nov. Admission free.

Partition (15) Fri 3 - Thurs 9 Oct + Intro by Pervaiz Khan on Fri 3 Oct

India, 1947: War weary, Gian resigns from his Sikh regiment of the British Army and returns to his village. As colonial rule comes to a hasty end, the turmoil of Indian partition spills over into a bloodbath of ethnic cleansing between the Sikh, Hindu and Muslim communities. When the villagers take revenge on a group of Muslim refugees, Gian saves young Naseem, and the two fall in love. Sarin's film is an epic, sweeping motion picture set against the violent upheaval of India's partition.

The opening night of Partition sees a special introduction by Pervaiz Khan of the South Asian Alliance who will also lead a discussion after the film.
