A Bigger Splash

The Assassin

Italy 2015 120 mins Dir: Luca Guadagnino

China/Hong Kong 2015 105 mins Dir: Hsaio-Hsien Hou

The director of I Am Love reunites with its leading star, Tilda Swinton, for this psychosexual drama set on a sun washed Sicilian island.

Ralph Fiennes plays a loud, brash movie producer called Harry who turns up at his ex-partner’s holiday home with a young woman (Dakota Johnson) he claims to be his daughter.

His ex-partner, former rock star Marianne (Swinton) and her sensitive film-maker boyfriend Paul (Matthias Schoenaerts) are confused as to why they are here while Harry starts to put his hidden agenda into motion.

The first film in eight years by Taiwanese master Hsaio-Hsien Hou is a visually stunning comeback and sees the director working in the wuxia genre. Set during the Tang dynasty and based on a 9th Century legend, The Assassin tells the story of Nie Yinniang (Shu Qi), abducted at the age of ten by a nun, who raised and initiated the young girl into the martial arts. When Nie is asked to kill cruel and corrupt officials, but fails, she is sent back to the land of her birth and faces a critical choice.

Mesmeric and dreamlike, this film has had critics in raptures over its astonishing beauty.

Hail Caesar!

High-Rise

UK 2015 Dir: Oliver Parker

USA 2015 Dir: Ethan & Joel Coen

UK 2016 112 mins Dir: Ben Wheatley

At the tail end of World War II, the boys of the home guard in Walmington-On-Sea are beset by a visiting female journalist (Catherine Zeta Jones) and rumours of a German spy in their midst! Our boys are back on the big screen as Dad’s Army is revived with an all-star cast: Captain Mainwaring (Toby Jones), Wilson (Bill Nighy), Jones (Tom Courtenay), Godfrey (Michael Gambon), spiv Walker (Daniel Mays), Frazer (Bill Paterson), Pike “don’t tell them your name Pike” (Blake Harrison) and Sarah Lancashire as Mrs Pike.

Set in the 1950s, Josh Brolin plays Eddie Mannix, a Hollywood ‘fixer’ helping the production of the upcoming film ‘Hail Caesar!’ starring famous actor Baird Whitlock (George Clooney). When the hungover actor is kidnapped by a group named The Future, Mannix is the one in charge of collecting $100,000 and saving him. Also starring Ralph Fiennes, Jonah Hill, Scarlett Johansson, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, Channing Tatum and Christopher Lambert. Every year is a good year when you get a new Coen brothers film and 2016 is shaping up to be a cracker.

Robert Laing (Tom Hiddleston) is a young doctor who takes up residence on the 25th floor of a luxury high-rise. There he discovers a complex world, he is impressed by the enigmatic creator of the tower block Anthony Royal (Jeremy Irons) and strikes up a relationship with Royal’s devoted aide Charlotte (Sienna Miller). After Laing befriends Richard Wilder (Luke Evans), a film-maker who has been relegated to the second floor, the social situation becomes apparent.

Adapted from the J G Ballard novel by the director of Sightseers.

Trumbo March Anomalisa Bone Tomahawk High-Rise Hitchcock / Truffaut

Anomalisa

Mavis!

USA 2015 90 mins Dir: Charlie Kaufman

Secret In Their Eyes Triple 9 Please note this list is based on national release dates and are therefore subject to change (usually that film release dates may be later). Please see QUAD website for any updates.

Charile Kaufman made his directorial debut in 2008 with the oddly brilliant ‘Marmite’ movie Synecdoche, New York. Here he steps behind the camera again and delivers another strange but brilliant piece of work, this time entirely in stop motion animation. The film is about Michael, a customer services guru who flies into Cincinnati to present at a conference and there he meets a stranger who completely changes his world view. Channelling his earlier works like Being John Malkovich and Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Anomalisa is one of the most unique films you will see all year. “ A future classic” The Guardian

The Danish Girl Bone Tomahawk USA 2015 132 mins Dir: S. Craig Zahler

Kurt Russell arrives at QUAD in two Westerns this programme, with a starring role in Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight and also in this debut feature from S. Craig Zahler.

Set in the tradition of classics like Rio Bravo and The Searchers, with Russell playing the sheriff of a small town maraudered by cannibals. He is charged with saving three citizens that have been kidnapped. Shot through with the horror of the topic, the film also brings the humour of modern Westerns like the Coens’ True Grit.

UK/Germany/USA 2015 120 mins Dir: Tom Hooper

This film details the true story of artist Gerda Wegener (Alicia Vikander) and her husband Einar (Eddie Redmayne). After painting her husband as a lady, Einar starts to change his appearance and renames himself Lili Elbe. With Gerda’s support Einar attempts the first ever male to female sex reassignment surgery. It is a decision that has a major effect on their relationship.

From the director of three of the most successful films ever to play at QUAD (The Damned United, The King’s Speech and Les Miserables) Tom Hooper returns with one of the hottest UK actors around, Eddie Redmayne fresh off winning Best Actor at the Oscars in 2015.

The Hateful Eight USA 2015 182 mins Dir: Quentin Tarantino

In post-Civil War Wyoming, John “The Hangman” Ruth (Kurt Russell) is escorting fugitive Daisy “The Prisoner” Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh) to Red Rock in order to face justice for murder. They encounter bounty hunter Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L Jackson) and Chris Mannix (Walton Goggins).

A blizzard forces them to take shelter where they are joined by four more strangers, Demien Bichir, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen and Bruce Dern. In this stagecoach Passover, the eight might not make it through to Red Rock after all. Tarantino’s snow Western continues his success in the genre after Oscar winning Django Unchained.

Hitchcock / Truffaut France / USA 2015 80 mins Dir: Kent Jones

In 1962, Alfred Hitchcock and Francois Truffaut locked themselves away for an exhaustive week-long interview, dissecting the secrets behind the mise-en-scene, and the resulting book became a key text for new directors. Based on the original recordings, this film illustrates the greatest cinema lesson of all time brought to life by interviews with Martin Scorsese, David Fincher, Wes Anderson, James Gray, Richard Linklater, Olivier Assayas, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Paul Schrader and more.

“A brilliant commentary on the discourse of cinema then, and now.”

Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

Janis: Little Girl Blue

Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry’s Visions Of Paradise

USA 2015 103 mins Dir: Amy Berg

UK/Germany 2015 100 mins Dir: Volker Schaner

Janis Joplin is one of the most revered and iconic Rock & Roll singers of all time, a tragic and misunderstood figure who thrilled millions of listeners and blazed new creative trails before her death in 1971 aged just 27.

Oscar-nominated director Amy Berg (West Of Memphis) examines Joplin’s story in depth for the first time on film, presenting an intimate and insightful portrait of a complicated, driven, often beleaguered artist.

The ultimate portrait of one of the icons of contemporary music. Shot over 15 years, director Volker Schaner had unprecedented access to the man who can lay claim to be the godfather of both reggae and dub. Using only original film and Perry’s classic recordings, the film eschews straightforward chronological biography to focus on Perry’s worldview. Funny, poetic and frequently mind-blowing.

Mavis!

The Revenant

Secret In Their Eyes

USA 2015 80 mins Dir: Jessica Edwards

USA 2015 151 mins Dir: Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

USA 2015 111 mins Dir: Billy Ray

Mavis is the first documentary on gospel/soul music legend and civil rights icon Mavis Staples and her family group, The Staples Singers.

From the freedom songs of the ‘60s and hits like “I’ll Take You There” in the ‘70s, to funked-up collaborations with Prince and her recent albums with Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, Mavis has stayed true to her roots, kept her family close and inspired millions along the way.

Inspired by true events, this film follows legendary explorer Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) who is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. Enduring unimaginable grief as well as the betrayal by his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Through sheer will, Glass must navigate a vicious winter to survive and seek vengeance on those who betrayed him. Could this be the year that DiCaprio nabs that Best Actor Oscar?

A tight knit team of rising investigators, Ray (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and Jess (Julia Roberts), along with their supervisor Claire (Nicole Kidman), is suddenly torn apart when they discover that Jess’s teenage daughter has been brutally murdered. 13 years later, after a fruitless search for the elusive killer, Ray uncovers a new lead. No-one is prepared however for the secret that is revealed. QUAD screened the original Argentinian film in 2009, a really strong cast has been assembled for this US remake.

“…draws the audience into a magisterial biography; electric, intimate and heart-breaking.

5 stars.” BBC.com

This Is Not A Cartoon Tuesday 23rd February at 6.30pm Various 2015 75 mins Dir: Various

This is the fourth collection of the very best international animated shorts rarely seen outside of festivals.

Your heart might race, your spine might shiver, your sides might split and tears might flow. The films on show present both the technical brilliance and superb storytelling that animation has to offer. This is fun, this is drama, this is excitement, this is action – but remember, This Is Not A Cartoon.

Tickets for this event are just £5, we also hope to be joined by one of the film-makers for a Q&A following the screening.

Rams Le Mepris (Contempt) France 1963 103 mins Dir: Jean-Luc Godard

Joy USA 2015 Dir: David O. Russell

Jennifer Lawrence reunites with Silver Linings Playbook co-star Bradley Cooper and director David O Russell for this biographical comedy-drama based on the life of Joy Mangano, inventor of the Miracle Mop. Joy is the single mother of three children who builds her business empire through four generations.

Robert De Niro plays Joy’s Father, with support from Edgar Ramirez, Elisabeth Rohm, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Ladd and Virginia Madsen.

A sumptuously stylish study of a rocky marriage and fraught professional relationships, Jean Luc Godard’s unusually straightforward adaptation of a novel by Moravia is also his most hauntingly beautiful films. Scriptwriter (Michel Piccoli) is torn between the demands of a philistine producer (Palance), his loyalty to the director (Fritz Lang) and his own self-respect; to make matters worse, his indecision is getting to his wife (Brigitte Bardot).

Iceland 2014 93 mins Dir: Grimur Hakonarson

A surprise winner of the Un Certain Regard award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, this beautiful film follows Gummi and Kiddi, brothers who live on neighbouring sheep farms but haven’t spoken to each other in forty years. When disease threatens the health and ancient lineage of their beloved rams, the brothers are forced to communicate once again. Written and directed by documentarian Hakonarson, this is a naturalistic portrait of rural life that captures the austere beauty of Iceland and its inhabitants’ deliciously mordant and seemingly native wry humour.

Room USA 2015 118 mins Dir: Lenny Abrahamson

Five year old Jack (Jacob Tremblay) is a spirited and lively boy, cared for by his devoted mother, Ma (Brie Larson) who does everything she can to keep him happy and safe. However their situation is not like that of anyone else. They live in a 10-by-10 foot space that they have named ‘Room’.

Trapped and confined in this windowless world, both Jack’s curiosity and Ma’s resilience are reaching breaking point and they plan their escape from their captor which may bring Jack (and Ma) face to face with something that may be the scariest thing yet: The Real World. A heart-breaking yet uplifting film with two standout performances from Larson and Tremblay, ably assisted by Joan Allen, Tom McCamus and William H. Macy.

Based on the worldwide bestselling novel by Emma Donoghue.

Spotlight USA 2015 128 mins Dir: Tom McCarthy

Boston 2001. The Boston Globe staff, led by Michael Keaton as Walter ‘Robby’ Robinson, are slowly unravelling systematic cover ups of child abuse by the Catholic Church.

Aided by Sacha Pfeiffer (Rachel McAdams), Michael Rezendes (Mark Ruffalo) and Matt Carroll (Brian d’Arcy Jones), the team are pushed to breaking point. A highly effective and tense procedural newsroom drama which will appeal to fans of All the President’s Men. Already anticipating multiple awards, this film deals with a disturbing subject matter with a searching intensity and a rare sensitivity.

Despite the absolutely stunning cast, the film eschews glitzy mechanics and flashy performances, instead respecting the harrowing real life situation that it depicts.

Triple 9 USA 2016 ? mins Dir: John Hillcoat

A gang of criminals and corrupt cops plan the murder of a police officer in order to pull off their biggest heist yet which will keep the Russian mafia off their backs. The Road director John Hillcoat directs a strong cast including Kate Winslet, Gal Gadot, Aaron Paul, Woody Harrelson, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Casey Affleck.

HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL DAY EVENTS 2016 IN QUAD Bread And Roses present……

This Changes Everything Monday 22nd February at 8.30pm USA 2015 89 mins Dir: Avi Lewis

Trumbo USA 2015 124 mins Dir: Jay Roach

The fate of the so-called ‘Hollywood Ten’ - blacklisted entertainment industry figures consigned to the margins due to their supposed (and actual) Communist leanings - has made easy drama for a number of big screen adaptations. But the life of Dalton Trumbo justifies repeated adaptation.

The screenwriter of many Hollywood classics (some written openly, mostly under pseudonyms after he was excluded by the studios) including Spartacus, Gun Crazy, Roman Holiday and Exodus, he refused to be cowed by the indictment that blighted his career. Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, Drive) plays Trumbo with all of the necessary verve of a man who did the majority of his composition inside the bath, cigarette in hand and scotch within reach.

But the supporting cast are more than his match, especially Helen Mirren’s gossip columnist Hedda Hopper, one of the chief collaborators in the Communist witch-hunt.

Filmed over 211 days in nine countries and five continents over four years, This Changes Everything presents seven portraits of communities on the front line of climate change. Interwoven with these stories of struggle is Naomi Klein’s narration, connecting the carbon in the air with the economic system that put it there. Provocative, compelling and accessible to even the most climate-fatigued viewer, this is refreshing and inspiring.

You’ve Been Trumped Monday 21st March at 8:30pm UK 2012 101 mins Dir: Anthony Baxter

Youth Italy/France/UK 2015 118 mins Dir: Paulo Sorrentino

Returning to questions of ageing that consumed his Oscar-winning The Great Beauty, Paolo Sorrentino’s Youth assembles a stellar cast in a Swiss health spa for some unsanitary issues. Michael Caine is an apathetic composer and conductor, living a life of dissolution. His companions in the spa are a Hollywood star (Paul Dano) and a film director (Harvey Keitel) struggling to finish his latest film, along with Rachel Weisz as Caine’s jilted daughter.

Regret for lost time is at the forefront of all of the characters’ minds, paired, with effortless visual decadence. A series of vignettes of over-educated people in an ethical mess, Youth is sure to capture those who swooned to The Great Beauty’s similar mix of melancholy and aesthetic dazzle.

In this David and Goliath story for the 21st Century, a group of proud Scottish homeowners take on celebrity tycoon Donald Trump over his plans to construct a new golf resort. At stake is one of Britain’s very last stretches of wilderness, best known as the setting for the beloved Local Hero, which in a case of life imitating art, is now under threat from a billionaire! What starts as an often amusing clash of worlds grows increasingly bitter and disturbing.

Bread and Roses will host a post screening discussion following the screenings

Into the Arms of Strangers: Stories Of The Kindertransport Monday 25th & Tuesday 26th January at 9:15am UK 2000 122 mins Dir: Mark Jonathan Harris

Narrated by Dame Judi Dench, this incredibly moving Oscar winning documentary tells of the extraordinary rescue operation that brought ten thousand children from German-held lands to Great Britain in the months prior to World War II. The film is followed by a Q&A session with Steven Mendelsson, a ‘Kindertransportee’ who stayed in England after the war and now lives in Sheffield.

Admission is FREE but limited; please book in advance through QUAD Box Office.

Holocaust Memorial Day Event Wednesday 27th January from 7:30pm

An evening of words, music and dance with this year’s theme ‘Don’t stand by’.

The Holocaust and subsequent genocides took place because the local populations allowed insidious persecution to take root. Whilst some actively supported or facilitated state policies of persecution, the vast majority stood by silently – at best, afraid to speak out; at worst, indifferent. Bystanders enabled the Holocaust, Nazi Persecution and subsequent genocides.

Expect spoken word contributions from the Armenian community, performances of both Jewish and Ukrainian traditional music plus a band comprising members of both groups; dance performances from the internationally-renowned Derby-based troupe Hoverla and flamenco dancing by Derby’s Gypsy community, a performing arts presentation by students from Landau Forte College plus input from many more of Derby’s diverse communities.

Admission is FREE but limited; please book in advance through QUAD Box Office.

My Nazi Legacy Monday 25th, Tuesday 26th & Wednesday 27th January UK 2015 92 mins Dir: David Evans

Questions of (very) problematic parentage are raised in David Evans’ documentary which follows international human rights lawyer Philippe Sands as he interviews two sons of high-ranking Nazi officers. He interviews Niklas Frank, whose father was executed for war crimes at Nuremberg, and Horst von Wachter, whose father operated in occupied Poland. Both men have strikingly different views on their relationships with their fathers. Frank entirely condemns his father’s actions and rejects his memory while the more fragile Horst finds it hard to balance his love for his father and the reality of his deeds. A gripping film that follows the men to Poland where the members of Sands family were executed during the war. A profound and timely meditation on remembrance and moral responsibility.

Part of a series of events organised by Derby’s HMD group, for more details of events, please see: www.hmd.org.uk & www.derbyholocaustmemorialday.org

The Dark Crystal Friday 18th – Sunday 20th March USA 1982 93 mins Dir: Jim Henson & Frank Oz

Fresh Dressed USA 2015 90 mins Dir: Sacha Jenkins

Fresh Dressed is a fascinating, fun-to-watch chronicle of hip-hop, urban fashion and the hustle that brought oversized pants and graffiti-drenched jackets from Orchard Street to high fashion’s catwalks and Middle America shopping malls. Reaching deep to Southern plantation culture, the Black church and Little Richard, director Sacha Jenkins’ music-drenched history draws from a rich mix of archival materials and in-depth interviews with rappers, designers and other industry insiders, such as Pharrell Williams, Damon Dash, Karl Kani, Kanye West, Nasir Jones and André Leon Talley.

The result is a passionate telling of how the reach for freedom of expression and a better life by a culture that refused to be squashed, would, through sheer originality and swagger, take over the mainstream.

On another planet in the distant past, a Gelfling embarks on a quest to find the missing shard of a magical crystal and restore order to his world. A truly unique piece of film-making that saw Jim Henson stepping away from the success of The Muppets and embracing this fantasy world of Gelflings and Skeksis. With Henson and Frank Oz bringing to life the conceptual drawings of Brian Froud, The Dark Crystal has a wonderful style that still looks great on the big screen today.

The screening on Friday 18th March at 8:45pm will be introduced by QUAD Cinema Programmer Adam Marsh.

Bringing the 80s back to the big screen

Dr Zhivago

Ben Hur

Sunday 31st January at 2:00pm UK 1965 193 mins Dir: David Lean

Sunday 20th March USA 1959 212 mins Dir: William Wyler

David Lean’s epic exploration of the Russian Revolution from the point of view of the intellectual title character played by Omar Sharif. A doctor and a poet who falls in love with a political activist’s wife, lives through the First World War and then the circumstances around the October Revolution. An Epic love story!

When a Jewish prince, Judah Ben-Hur is betrayed and sent into slavery by a Roman friend, he regains his freedom and comes back for revenge. William Wyler’s epic Roman tale is almost the poster child for Epic film-making, with the famous chariot race sequence lauded as one of the most exciting in cinema history.

The action packed cartoon is transformed into a live action adventure as He-Man (Dolph Lungren) battles the dark lord Skeletor (Frank Langella) across the universe from the planet Eternia to 1987 Earth, roping in two teenagers (Courteney Cox and Robert Duncan McNeill) in a quest to find the Cosmic Key! Gloriously 80s!

This film will be introduced by Film Director and Crossing The Streams Host Dominic Burns.

Fukumoto Seiji is Japan’s top “kirareyaku” actor, whose job it is to be felled with a sword by a film’s star.

With appearances in numerous samurai movies, he plays a utility actor reminiscent of himself in his first starring role in a film. Fewer samurai films are being made and the studio has fallen on hard times.

One day, veteran actor Fukumoto is tasked with teaching sword action techniques to fledgling actress Satsuki (Yamamoto Chihiro).

A few years later, the now-retired Kamiyama is visited by Satsuki, who has now become a popular star.

Having lost her husband in the war, Haruko Inoue (wonderfully played by Yuko Mochizuki) struggles to raise her children. Making innumerable sacrifices for them, including prostituting herself, Haruko decides to send them to live with her brother in Tokyo. Her daughter becomes compromised in a flirtation with a teacher and Haruko rushes to the city.

While his elder brother is serving his sentence, Naoki undergoes a rough life and gradually begins to despise his elder brother so writes to explain all the difficulties he’s been facing and requests to sever their family ties. Tsuyoshi realises for the first time the significance of his crime.

Based on a mystery novel by Keigo Higashino.

Jun Naruse is a girl who carries the guilt of breaking up her family with the words she carelessly uttered when she was young… Suddenly, a mysterious “Egg Fairy” appears in front of Jun and casts a curse on her so that she can never again hurt anybody with her words. Jun’s ability to speak is sealed away and hides her feelings deep inside of her heart, using e-mail messages on her mobile phone as her sole means of communication.

Now a second year high school student Jun and three other students are appointed as the Regional Friendship Exchange Executive Committee. As it turns out, the appointed group is a rather unexpected mix of students…

Showcasing gems from East Asia

Attack On Titan Double Bill Friday 22nd January at 8:45pm Dir: Shinji Higuchi Japan 2015 98 mins & 87 mins

Huge monsters, known as Titans, came to earth 100 years ago and destroyed most of humanity. In response, enormous walls were built to keep the small community of people remaining safe. When a titan breaches the wall and attacks teenager Eren’s loved ones he joins up with the armed forces and sets out to gain revenge.

Haikime Isayama’s Attack On Titan has been a huge hit in both comic book and animation forms and now has been adapted into a two part big budget live action blockbuster which shows that Japan is more than capable of matching Hollywood in the barnstorming spectacle stakes.

Sarusuberi: Miss Hokusai

Introduced by Satori Screen host Peter Munford.

Sunday 14th February at 6:00pm Japan 2015 93 mins Dir: Keiichi Hara

This is the story of O-Ei, the female artist and daughter of famous Ukiyo-e (woodblock print artist) Katsushika Hokusai (The Great Wave). His daughter O-Ei is an accomplished painter who frequently assists her father. She goes so far as to create complete works that her mentor then signs, but few today are even aware of the woman who assisted the artist all his life, and greatly contributed to his art while remaining uncredited. Based on a manga of the same title, the film uses animation to bring the rich world of Ukiyo-e to life.

Yakuza Apocalypse Friday 4th March at 8:45pm Japan 2014 125 mins Dir: Takashi Miike

Japanese cinema’s most notorious troublemaker Takashi Miike (Audition, Ichi The Killer) returns with another wild ride into the extreme. In the yakuza underworld rumours abound that gang leader Kamiura (Lily Frankie) is invincible. In fact, his secret is that he is a vampire! When he is attacked by mysterious assassins he converts his most loyal lieutenant Kageyama (Hayato Ichihara) into a bloodsucker so he can avenge his death. Featuring Yayan Ruhian from the Raid 1+2 in a key role. Extreme bloody violence is inevitable. The kung fu fighting frog probably less so!

Introduced by Satori Screen host Peter Munford.

Thursday 28th January at 7:00pm

He is one of the most fiercely debated artists and yet one of the most influential.

Picasso collected more Renoirs than any other artist. Matisse revered him.

Monet too. He was an artist that was instrumental in creating the Impressionist movement and then totally rejected it and went in a completely new direction – with extraordinary results.

Encores: Monday 15th at 7:00pm, Tuesday 16th February at 2:00pm 2016 180 mins Dir: Josie Rourke

Former lovers, the Marquise de Merteuil and Vicomte de Valmont now compete in games of seduction and revenge. Merteuil incites Valmont to corrupt the innocent Cecile de Volanges before her wedding night but Valmont has targeted the peerlessly virtuous and beautiful Madame de Tourvel.

While these merciless aristocrats toy with others’ hearts and reputations, their own may prove more fragile than they supposed.

This Donmar Warehouse’s highly anticipated new production marks the play’s thirty year anniversary, winning Olivier and Evening Standard awards. Directed by Josie Rourke (Coriolanus), the cast includes Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey), Janet McTeer (The White Queen) and Dominic West (The Wire). In 1782, Choderlos de Laclos’ novel of sex, intrigue and betrayal in pre-revolutionary France scandalised the world.

NTLive: As You Like It Thursday 25th February 2016

The Barnes Collection in Philadelphia has more Renoirs than any other gallery in the world and it’s there that the search begins to tell the remarkable story of this remarkable artist.

Shakespeare’s glorious comedy of love and change with Rosalie Craig as Rosalind. With her father the Duke banished and in exile, Rosalind and her cousin Celia leave their lives in the court behind them and journey into the Forest of Arden. There, released from convention, Rosalind experiences the liberating rush of transformation. Disguising herself as a boy, she embraces a different way of living and falls spectacularly in love.

EOSS: Painting The Modern Garden: Monet to Matisse Painting The Modern Garden: Monet to Matisse From the Royal Academy of Arts, London & the Cleveland Museum of Art Tuesday 12th April at 8:30pm Encore: Thursday 14th April at 1:30pm UK 2015 90 minutes

RSC: Hamlet Wednesday 8 June at 7:00pm UK 2016 Dir: Simon Godwin

Monet was an avid horticulturist and arguable the most important painter of gardens in the history of art but he was not alone. Artists like Van Gogh, Bonnard, Pissarro and Matisse all saw the garden as a powerful subject for their art.

Hamlet has the world at his feet. Young, wealthy and living a hedonistic life studying abroad. Then word reaches him that his father is dead. Returning home he finds his world is utterly changed, his certainties smashed and his home a foreign land. Struggling to understand his place in a new world order he faces a stark choice. Submit, or rage against the injustice of his new reality.

These great artists, along with many other famous names, feature in an innovative exhibition from The Cleveland Museum of Art and The Royal Academy, London. From the exhibition walls to the beauty of artists’ gardens like Monet’s Giverny, we take a magical journey to discover how artists used the modern garden to explore radical and wonderful new ideas.

Simon Godwin (The Two Gentlemen of Verona 2014) directs Paapa Essiedu as Hamlet in Shakespeare’s searing tragedy. As relevant today as when it was written, Hamlet confronts each of us with the mirror of our own mortality in an imperfect world.

ENO: The Magic Flute LIVE from the London Coliseum Wednesday 9th March at 7:30pm Director Simon McBurney UK 2016 175 minutes Sung in English with subtitles

This is a fantastically theatrical and imaginative staging from Complicite Theatre’s artistic director Simon McBurney with ENO Music Director Mark Wigglesworth conducting a world-class cast including Allan Clayton as Tamino and Lucy Crowe as Pamina.

EXHIBITIONS

Noriko Okaku: The Interpreter Until 24th January 2016 QUAD Extra Gallery Spaces

Animate OPEN Prize The Animate OPEN Prize of £1,500 is awarded to American artist Jake Fried, for his film Brain Lapse (2014).

The Animate OPEN Jury was: Louise Clements (Artistic Director, QUAD), Ruth Jarman (artist, Semiconductor), Chris Robinson (Artistic Director, Ottawa International Animation Festival) and Gary Thomas (Animate Projects).

Until 24th January 2016, QUAD Gallery

The Parts & Labour exhibition sets out to celebrate, subvert and confound our expectations of what animation is, bringing together different artistic approaches that connect through their exploration of the concept of animation as craft. It features 21 cutting edge animated films selected from an international open call that attracted 198 entries. The works are grouped under three headings: Industry, Manufacture and Material.

Artists include: Kristian Andrews, Jane Cheadle, Sophie Clements, James Duesing, Richard Fenwick, Guillaume Martial, Vicky Smith, Catherine Anyango, Jake Fried, Jonathan Gillie, Michaela Grill, Rui Hu, Wednesday Kim, Peter Millard, Edwin Rostron, Steven Subotnick, Sebastian Buerkner, Kent Lambert, David Theobald, Sean Vicary and Alan Warburton.

Parts & Labour explores the idea of animation as something that is made – whether physically, digitally, or both – and is evidence that animation is a medium at the forefront of artistic and creative innovation, and the development of new techniques and approaches. The exhibition champions the animation artist and maker, and highlights their work and skill.

Audience Prize One artist from the exhibition will be awarded a prize of £750, selected from votes by visitors to the exhibition. Nomination forms available in the Gallery.

Following the gallery exhibition at QUAD, a selection of works will be shown online at www.animateprojects.org , and in cinemas as part of Move It, Animate’s new touring initiative.

Parts & Labour is a collaboration between Animate Projects and QUAD.

Artist and film-maker Noriko Okaku exhibits a newly commissioned body of work, The Interpreter, produced during a three-month residency at QUAD, a co-commission with Animate Projects, QUAD and D-LAB. Inspired by Derbyshire’s history, myths and legends, Okaku has created a series of collage works that form a new Tarot, loaded with symbolism, intrigue and mystical imagery. Also presented is a new animation, bringing this mythical narrative to life.

Noriko Okaku was born in Japan and now lives and works in London. She studied at Chelsea College of Art and Design and the Royal College of Art, completing her MA in Animation in 2005. Her work in various media often retains an element of collage.

She borrows, adopts, copies and recycles existing images to explore the eclecticism, mystery and strangeness underlying everyday objects and actions.

Artist’s Talk & Tour: Noriko Okaku Saturday 23rd January 2:00pm Meet at QUAD Reception

Noriko Okaku leads a brief tour of the exhibition The Interpreter before giving an illustrated talk on her artistic practice, process and residency with QUAD, Animate Projects and D-LAB.

Around QUAD: Time and Motion As part of D-LAB, a visual arts project bringing new digital art to Derbyshire, animator Jennifer Booth, Llama Digital and Junction Arts have been working with students from Heritage High School in Clowne, Derbyshire, to make films in response to the Parts & Labour theme.

Visitors to QUAD can download the Junction Arts app to watch the films on their mobile phones, selecting each work as they come across an ‘iBeacon’ around QUADs building by this symbol. www.d-lab.org.uk

Our bodies perform a soundless internal dialogue between cells using the universal cypher of genetics. These signals are fundamental to how our bodies operate and how they adapt to fight disease. Silent Signal is an inspiring group exhibition of newly commissioned animated work that explores the science of genetics, cell biology, immunology and epidemiology.

Silent Signal takes you on a journey: starting at the microcosm of the infection fighting internal landscapes of our cells, through the personal experiences and opinions of individuals and scientists, to the application of the research in the wider world of infectious disease modelling and genome code sequencing.

The works raises questions about what our genetic code is, how our immune system functions, how disease is spread, and what the future applications and impact of the research into these areas might be for us all. Each work is the result of an artist closely collaborating with a scientist over a period of two years to produce an artistic response to their scientific research. The pairs have also explored the similarities and differences in the way they work and the technologies that they both use.

Silent Signal comprises: • A fterGlow by boredomresearch, in collaboration with Dr Paddy Brock (University of Glasgow); • B attle of Blister by Genetic Moo, in collaboration with Dr Neil Dufton (Imperial College London); • I mmunecraft by Eric Schockmel, in collaboration with Dr Megan MacLeod (University of Glasgow);
