The Scottish filmmaker and poet Margaret Tait made films that hum with humanity. Her gently persuasive work is both intensely personal and engagingly social, the apparent simplicity of her everyday imagery belying her dogged commitment to the act of looking. Tait, who died in 1999, was born in Kirkwall, Orkney 100 years ago on 11 November 1918, and between 1951 to 1998 created more than 30 films. The exhibition ‘Stalking the Image: Margaret Tait and her Legacy’ is part of a series of events across Scotland marking the centenary of her birth. Featuring nine of her films that vary in length from two to 32 minutes, also included at Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art are vitrines filled with archive material such as typed letters, hand-drawn story boards and the filmmaker’s 16mm Bolex camera. – 苏格兰电影制片人和诗人Margaret Tait制作了充满人性的电影。她温柔而有说服力的作品既具有强烈的个人魅力,又具有吸引力的社会性,她日常形象的明显朴素背离了她对观看行为的坚定承诺。泰特于1999年去世,100年前1918年11月11日出生于奥克尼的柯克沃尔,1951年至1998年间创作了30多部电影。“跟踪图像:玛格丽特·泰特和她的遗产”展览是苏格兰各地一系列纪念她诞辰100周年活动的一部分。她拍摄的9部电影长度从2分钟到32分钟不等,同样包括在格拉斯哥现代艺术画廊(Gallery of Modern Art)中,其中有玻璃杯,里面装满了档案材料,如打字信、手绘故事板和电影制作人的16mmBolex相机。
