Published on the occasion of Mike Marshall's 2005-6 exhibition 'The Intimacy of Distance' at Ikon, this comprehensive catalogue includes full colour still sequences from films made by Marshall between 1998 and 2005. Marshall's films are characterized by 'a lack of dramatic moment, by a seemingly easy-going-ness, by an avoidance of limelight', yet leave the viewer strangely affected and often impressed with a vivid sense of recollection. As well as older pieces, and work from the Ikon exhibition, this catalogue includes stills from 'Birdcatcher', a short film commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella as part of Single Shot 2007.
