One of ten films about Live Art commissioned by the Live Art Development Agency for its tenth anniversary. www.thisisLiveArt.co.uk
Live Art is the name of the game and I wanna play the game with you
Like much of Hewlett's work the The Live Art Generation Game subverts an emblematic moment from popular culture. It hijacks the climactic challenge from the bygone Saturday night television game-show - The Generation Game - where the contestant must memorise as many prizes as possible seen passing before them on a conveyer belt.
Everything you remember you will take home with you tonight.
Hewlett's practice traverses gallery, theatre and other performance contexts working in Live Art to create multi-faceted live, video, installation and audio works. She has been commissioned by S1 Artspace, Beaconsfield Gallery, and Duckie. In 2008 she was selected to make new work for the Live Art UK Touring Commission and is an Artsadmin bursary recipient.
