Welcome to the Irish Artists' Film Index (formerly the MExIndex).
The Irish Artists' Film Index is a resource for curators, gallerists, researchers and artists to help them find and highlight Irish artists' moving image works and experimental film.
It is a searchable online database with free access to key information and writing on visual arts-based moving image works by Irish artists/ artists living in Ireland and on subject matter relating to Irish history, politics, culture and society. Due to funding restraints, the film works themselves are located with the artists or their agents.

It is aimed at those wishing to select works for exhibition or screenings from this ever growing body of visual artists' moving images.
