ICA London exhibitions

To kick off the autumn season at the ICA, Neï l Beloufa will be showing several films in custom installations built by the artist especially for the show. 

Ne ï l Beloufa, artist and filmmaker

Blurring the line between fact and fiction, Beloufa's films investigate real phenomena through imaginative means. He uses both actors and non-professionals, sometimes working with his subjects to determine the film's outcome. 

Counting on People, Beloufa's first institutional exhibition in the UK, will include a recent commission from the Banff Centre in Canada and the ICA - Home is Whenever I'm With You. This film explores communication through social media and the changing position of the viewer in relation to this technology. 

In addition, new films VENGEANCE and Data for Desire will be shown for the first time which scrutinise the human desire for community. The films are interspersed with sculptural works, creating fragmented material narratives across mediums.
