Cinecity visit the Quays

Last week the Cinecity Team had the privilege of meeting the Quay
Brothers at their London studio, a stone's throw from London Bridge
Station.

Once we found it, the studio was a surprisingly inconspicuous first
floor loft, but nevertheless a sanctuary inside!

This is their creative headquarters - hidden amongst a primary school
playground, remnants of pre-war architecture that survived the blitz and
new designer flats. This is where they have shaped their ideas and made
their work for over 2 decades.

During the visit we discussed how the CINECITY exhibition will be
presented. It will be the first time their exhibition 'Dormitorium' and
installation 'Eurydice -She So Beloved' (commissioned by Capture and
Opera North) will be shown together in one gallery space.

They generously offered us a selection of Polish Film Posters by Roman
Ciesliewiz and Henryk Tomaszewski from their personal collection for
CINECITY - a very exciting addition!

Frank and Sara are looking forward to meeting them again at the festival
launch on 21st November.
