The Masterclass will take place at the Refractive Hub in the UWS Witherspoon Building (Paisley) on Saturday 11th October, 1-3pm. This event will be followed by a screening of Luke and co-director Corin Sworn’s film On Weaving at Johnstone Textile Space, 5pm (doors from 4.30pm).
LUKE FOWLER (b. 1978, Glasgow) is a filmmaker, photographer, and digital artist who lives and works in Glasgow. His work questions the style and political implications of conventional modes of documentary through a varied practice which encompasses film, sound, installation and photography. He is concerned with finding new ways to meaningfully engage with marginal cultural figures, spaces and archive materials through the medium of 16mm film. His moving image works have charted an alternative history of Britain as well as considering significant international musicians and artists – revisiting the work of Margaret Tait, R. D. Laing, Patrick Cowley, and Brunhild Ferrari, amongst others.
He was nominated for The Turner Prize in 2012 and received the inaugural Derek Jarman Award in 2008. In 2014, Fowler was one of the recipients of Artists and Archives: Artists’ Moving Image, a unique residency programme based at BBC Scotland. In 2014, MACK published Fowler’s first monograph of his photo archive. Fowler has exhibited and shown his films internationally. His film Mum’s Cards was awarded the 2019 Scottish Short Film Award at Glasgow Short Film Festival and the prize for Best Short at Punto de Vista International Documentary Film Festival of Navarre, Spain. In 2023, Being in a Place: A Portrait of Margaret Tait was awarded the La Scam International Award at Cinéma du Réel.
