animate!

February – March 2006

A special programme of recent commissions from the animate! project, venturing into fresh narrative territories and visual forms way beyond the frame-by-frame confines of conventional animation.

In each of the ten films in Extending the Image : animate! 02–05 the artist breaks the rules and the exhilaration is compelling:

13 by Simon Faithfull, Dad’s Dead by Chris Shepherd, Exposure by Peter Collis, Flight by Dryden Goodwin, Minema Cinema by Tim Hope, Perpetual Motion in the Land of Milk and Honey by AL + AL, BAFTA-nominated Rabbit by Run Wrake, Rotting Artist by Ann Course & Paul Clark, Tulips at Dawn by Rosie Pedlow and Who I Am and What I Want by David Shrigley & Chris Shepherd.
