Following a highly successful 2018 event, FOCUS, The Meeting Place for International Production, will return to the Business Design Centre London on 3/4 December 2019 for its fifth edition. The event will remain completely free to attend for industry professionals.
FOCUS is aimed at all the creative screen industries – including film, TV, advertising, animation and interactive – and is the only UK trade event where attendees can meet with content makers, film commissions, production services and locations providers from over 80 countries.

In his new body of work, Naked Triangles, Photographer Mark Indig /LMGI explores the most reliable shapes in architecture. Their use dates back longer than other common construction shapes such as the dome, arch, cylinder, and even the wheel. Stripped of context, they are delicate sculptures of ethereal beauty, grace and utility. But their inherent strength forms the ubiquitous skeletons of our technology, power and communications. As such they are harbingers of advancing civilization, with its modern amenities and conveniences, but also ominous totems of surveillance and the desecration of the landscape. These photographs are meant to represent x-rays of our culture.
Reception: Saturday, February 22, 2020 from 6 – 9 pm.
Show runs: February 22 – March 20
