Isaac played a pivotal role in that significant moment in the black
diaspora arts, when gay sexuality, masculinity and race exploded
into the same visual frame. -Stuart Hall Riot is an intellectual
biography of artist and filmmaker Isaac Julien (born 1960), looking
at key moments in his career and discussing the influences that
shaped them. Julien's trail-blazing career has moved across film
and art, documentary, biography, narrative film and multi-screen
installation, and has drawn on influences as disparate as silent
cinema, cultural studies, Chinese myth and pirate radio culture.
Riot is the first career-long overview on Julien, situating his
work in the context of his personal and intellectual development:
the friendships, mentors, night clubs, films, politics, records and
the artworks that informed his practice. The backdrop to Julien's
own story is a collage of some of the most important political and
cultural events of the past 30 years: Thatcherism and the rise of
neo-liberalism, the AIDS epidemic, punk rock, social riots, the
globalization of the art market and the movement of filmmakers into
the gallery.
