Saturday 19 September 2009, as part of the FolkUs Festival, inside the Housing Cooperative of Sanford, London, opening the project curated by Anna Babini DON’T TALK TO THE DRIVER (PLEASE). A big, old and unused coach has been parked for ages in the site where the festival will take place. It will be turned into a screening location for video art. During the whole day the bus will become a container for the projection of selected videos by young and emerging artists from UK and abroad, and a free space of passage and exchange for the viewers. The aim of the project is also to create an experimental meeting point for different creative realities, project spaces and artistic collectives based in this area of London. Programme:
