Norwich International Animation FestivalNorwich International Animation Festival presents a white-hot programme of seminars, debates, retrospectives and special film programmes, alongside the very best new animation from across the world.
The festival is bigger and bolder for 2006, with more venues, riskier programmes and new live performance and music events.
Under the theme of "Re-vision", this year's festival looks at reappropriation - the found, twisted and mashed up - in animation and the wider moving image, taking in gaming, generative art, artists' film and AV work along the way.
This year's festival is planned to be the boldest yet, with a trailblazing programme which ventures further still from "traditional" film festival territory to embrace live art, generative work and artists' film, eroding yet further the myth that animation is about cartoons alone.
Highlights include retrospectives of leading animation directors Igor Kovalyov, Priit Parn and Koji Yamamura, a wide-ranging tribute to auteur Walerian Borowczyk, featuring rarely screened films alongside special events with the Brothers Quay, Andrzej Klimowski and others, and a unique one-day symposium with filmmakers Bill Morrison (Decasia), Frank Mouris (Frank Film) and Robert Bradbrook (Home Road Movies); generative artists Leonardo Solaas and Marius Watz; and leading theorist Steve Reinke.
