FIERCE LIGHT EXHIBITION
We would like to invite you and members of your group to a special viewing at East GalleryNUA of a World Premiere and major co-commission from 14-18 NOW, Norfolk & Norwich Festival and Writers’ Centre Norwich.
As we approach 100 years since the Battle of the Somme, Fierce Light brings together outstanding international poets with filmmakers and visual artists to explore the war and its legacy in the 21st century. This exhibition will be featuring specially commissioned poetry from Jackie Kay, Bill Manhire, Paul Muldoon, Daljit Nagra and Jo Shapcott alongside short films by George Belfield, Tim Davies, Matthew Kay, Joshua Carver and Suzie Hanna. It will also feature Simon Armitage’s collection Still, each poem engraved onto aerial photographs of WWI battlefields. Find out more here.
We are holding special viewings of this exhibition on Thursday for community groups, where members of Norfolk & Norwich Festival and the Writer’s Centre Norwich will be on hand to discuss the exhibition. You will also be able to find out more about an exciting opportunity for you and interested members of your group to become involved in your own writing and filmmaking project later in the summer.
Special viewings will be held on:
For more information and to book on to one of the above viewings, please RSVP to Ros atros@nnfestival.org.uk by Thursday morning.
Kind regards,
Ros
