A male filmmaker in his fifties with thinning grey hair stands outdoors on a rocky coastal location, gazing upward thoughtfully. He holds a professional Canon video camera with a large telephoto lens and a windscreen-covered directional microphone mounted on top. He wears a black blazer over a dark v-neck sweater and white t-shirt. In the background, a seafront promenade with palm trees and white buildings stretches along the shoreline under an overcast sky.

About Exhibition On Screen: Working With The World’s Greatest Museums & Galleries

BAFTA award-winning filmmaker Phil Grabsky is the founder of the cinema brand Exhibition On Screen, which has made 40 arts-based feature films, including the most successful arts film ever released in the UK (Vermeer: The Greatest Exhibition).

In this live onstage talk, he will discuss how galleries put on these major exhibitions and why - as well as how his company Seventh Art Productions films them and turns them into films which play in over sixty countries. He’ll also be previewing upcoming films for the Exhibition On Screen series.
