apichatpong weerasethakul: for tomorrow for tonight
IMMA Irish Museum of Modern Art
july 27th - october 31st, 2011

The exhibition at IMMA, entitled For Tomorrow For Tonight, features new work that explores the theme of night through video, photographs and installation. Night and darkness are recurring motifs in Weerasethakul’s films (such as Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, Tropical Malady and The Primitive Project) and the themes are examined even further here. This new multimedia installation was made following The Primitive Project, which was shown to critical acclaim around the world, and his feature film Uncle Boonmee.

The exhibition, curated by Enrique Juncosa, Director of IMMA, is accompanied by a fully-illustrated catalogue designed by Pony, London and featuring texts by Chris Dercon, Director of Tate Modern and Eungie Joo, curator at New Museum, New York among others. During July and August, the IFI is running a season of his films to coincide with the exhibition at the Museum.
