John Akomfrah: The Stuart Hall Project
FACT Liverpool, Liverpool, L1 4DQ
Tuesday 28th July 2026 6:30PM
Don't miss this groundbreaking film that pioneers a new archival and sonic approach to forgotten histories, forgotten ideas and the untold stories of the politics of change, by award-winning film director and British artist Sir John Akomfrah.
The Stuart Hall Project (2013) is an intimate and engaging portrait of Stuart Hall, the Jamaican-born public intellectual and co-founder of the New Left Review. His work in cultural studies profoundly influenced the political and academic landscapes. A life lived through the twentieth century’s defining political moments.
Listening All Night To The Rain
Commissioned for the British Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale in 2024, the work is a series of multi-channel video installations exploring diasporic experiences in Britain, reflecting on pivotal moments in colonial and post-colonial history. Its display at the Walker, particularly the intervention on the Gallery’s portico, creates dialogue with these histories. As the Walker marks its 150th anniversary in 2027 we hope it will pave the way for future conversations.
