The ICA is working with Film4 on cinematICA - a fundraising initiative to raise at least £300,000 to refurbish our cinemas and pay for a continuing dynamic film programme. Through our 60 years, the ICA has earned an unrivalled reputation for bringing bold, brave new visions and voices to public attention.
Among the features, shorts, documentaries, artist films, animation special seasons and contextual activities and discussions, we introduced Jean-Luc Godard to the UK and played a pivotal role in the careers of such influential film-makers as Terence Davis, Isaac Julien, Jan Svankmajer, Wayne Wang, Zhang Yimou, Derek Jarman, John Maybury, Cerith Wyn Evans, Wong Kar-Wai, Abbas Kiarostami, Lars von Trier and Takeshi Kitano. This extraordinary legacy continues: this year we have supported such films as Iraq in Fragments, Favela Rising, I for India, Jesus Camp and The Yacoubian Building.
cinematICA is aimed at encouraging both public and private investment in the future of ICA Cinema and will present a special series of opportunities to include a special monthly public screening in conjunction with a director, writer or actor, gala screenings by high-profile artists, directors, writers and actors, and opportunities to join cinematic legends past, present and future by 'adopting' a cinema seat.
You can get involved with CinematICA in a variety of ways, from making a donation as you buy your tickets to becoming a corporate supporter or 'adopting' a cinema seat.
