CAROUSEL presents an exhibition and film screening by experimental artists and filmmakers responding to the theme of Underground Fantasy on Friday 24th January & Saturday 25th January 2025 at Photo Book Cafe.

Part one of the fourth edition of Carousel. This programme of non-fiction, experimental cinema explores underground fantasies ranging from a dirt metal prophesy, a recreation of royal death rites in Salford, utopian wedding ceremonies, coveted secret societies in Italy’s Calabrian mountains, hauntological deconstructions of popular culture in Northern England, memories of names in Kreuzberg before the fall and New York’s queer scene in the 1980s.

Mark Leckey, Anna Thew, David Wojnarowicz & Jesse Hultberg, Stanley Schtinter, Simon Parris, John Balance (Collection), Andrew ‘WIZ’ Whiston, Tessa Hughes-Freeland, Daleya Marohn, Katie Shannon, Martin Kellett, Andrew Finch, Dylan Zarate & Nora Bzheta.
