Matt Johnson presents: 'THE THE: Infected – The Movie'
Part of the Retrospective: The Future Is History Strand
Released at the height of the MTV era, Johnson’s screen accompaniment to THE THE's stunning album of the same name is a vital piece of 1980s British art. Featuring the work of four directors and locations including Peru, Bolivia and New York, the project saw Johnson embark on an epic artistic adventure in an attempt to match his music visually. The enduring power of Infected – The Movie lies in the intense, dangerous passion that Johnson invested in it at the time.
