Nightlife: Ourselves, Our Spaces on Film

—

What happens in bars and clubs across the world after dark?

Under cover of darkness, these dedicated spaces offer a place for us to come together, encounter like minds and express our true selves in safe havens – and of course, have a fantastic time.

This season takes you on a nocturnal journey full of passion, transgression and joy, through New York’s Studio 54, unified Berlin, neon-lit Taipei, and rough and ready Mexico City, as well as exploring the vanishing queer spaces of London.  

Nightlife: Ourselves, Our Spaces on Film is programmed in association with the Art Gallery exhibition Into the Night: Cabarets and Clubs in Modern Art
