SIMON AND THE RADIOACTIVE FLESH
A film and intermittent art video screening that transcends into a purgatorial nightclub setting.

Simon and the Radioactive Flesh uses Luis Buñuel's 45 minute film 'Simon del Desierto' of an ascetic, Simon (played by Claudio Brook), a devotee of Simon Stylites, who proclaims his faith through standing on a column in the desert. The devil (played by Silvia Pinal) visits on several occasions to lure him from his duty, eventually succeeding in transposing him to purgatory; an existential beat nightclub in 1960's New York. In this reworking of the original film, each time the devil appears the narrative is interrupted by the insertion of a contemporary video art work. The interruptions continue throughout the film until finally we too are spatially interrupted, finding ourselves in a parallel to the purgatorial nightclub setting of the film's last dance, Carne Radioactivo (the Radioactive Flesh).

Artists' videos in running order:
Sophie Brown & Catherine Evelid / It's Time to Give In, Bernhard Willhelm & Dirk Bonn / The Rose, Pablo Bronstein / Trojan Horse, Benjamin Callaway / Plane, Omer Ali Kazma / She has had it, Mark Leckey / We are (untitled), Assume Vivid Astro Focus/ Relevee.

Vangelis Vlahos employs the methodology of research and collects archival material to compose a series of open-ended narratives on recent historical experience, which re-examine official versions of history, or encourage a new approach of its dominant narrative. His recent work focuses on different experiences in modern history, mainly through archival material culled from various sources. It seems to be concerned with the extent to which such material may be used as a tool in our attempt to rethink notions of the past that continue to influence and shape our perception of the present. An equally important aspect of his research is the juxtaposition of the language of architecture and that of political and economic power and the comparisons drawn between them.
