Preserving Artists’ Moving Images (Panel Discussion)
Artists’ film and video represent some of the most compelling and  
significant artistic creations of our time. These works represent a  
history of artistic practice developed outside of the mainstream  
often with little or no institution support. Defined by its diversity  
and individualism, artists’ film and video work represents a  
significant challenge for the archives, but a crucial one if these  
important works are not to be lost to art and film history.
William Fowler, Curator of Artists’ Film and Video at the National  
Film, Television and Video Archive, London
Andrew Lampert, Archivist, Anthology Film Archives, New York
Mark Toscano, Film Preservationist, Academy Film Archives, Los Angeles

The LUX programmes at the London Film Festival are presented to mark  
the launch of a new LUX website providing conservation information
and resources for artists working with the moving image. http://
