Peckham Artist Moving Image festival (PAMI) launches this week!

A brand new film festival launches in Peckham this week.

PAMI

It's official – Peckham's getting cooler by the day. Not content with a Campari bar on top of a carpark and an events space in a former cricket bat factory, the citizens of Peckham have decided to launch their very own festival dedicated to artist-produced video and film works. It's called PAMI – short for Peckham Artist Moving Image – and it's starting this week!

Peckham probably already has the most vibrant arts scene in the capital, and a load of the local galleries are clubbing together to play host to a range of exhibitions, events and screenings, that kick off on Thursday 15th September, with previews on Wednesday night.

There's things going on at most of Peckham's galleries and arts spaces, including The Sunday Painter, Arcadia Missa, SON Gallery, Sassoon Gallery and Flat Time House. Highlights include Arcadia Missa's Derrida-inspired exhibition, åρχω, featuring a special intervention from LuckyPDF; a video piece by the hilariously brilliant Giles Ripley at FoodFace Projects; and an evening of “slow images” in the wicked straw-bale auditorium below Frank's Café. Plus there's two special Art Licks tours on Wednesday and Sunday to guide you through the best of all that's going on.
