Firestation (2000) and 72–82 (2014)
摘要
The chapter discusses Raban’s original approach to making two arts documentaries. Having bought and renovated a derelict fire station in east London, Acme converted it into artists’ studios. Firestation recounts the building’s role during the Blitz and the first wave of artists to occupy the building. 72–82 documents the ground-breaking work of the first 10 years of Acme studios and the Acme Gallery using just photographic and film archive supplemented by the recollections of surviving artists.
