    presents EXHIBITION A FILM BY JOANNA HOGG UK / COLOUR / 104 MINUTES / 2013 A Kino Lorber Release from Kino Lorber, Inc. 333 West 39 St., Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 (212) 629-6880 Publicity Contacts: Rodrigo Brandão – [email protected] Matt Barry – [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS When D and H decide to sell the home they have loved and lived in for two decades, they begin a process of saying goodbye to their shared history under the same roof. The upheaval causes anxieties to surface, and wife and performance artist D, struggles to control the personal and creative aspects of her life with H. Dreams, memories, fears, have all imprinted themselves on their home, which exists as a container for their lives and has played such an important role in their relationship. LONG SYNOPSIS Artists D (Viv Albertine) and H (Liam Gillick) are a married couple who have lived together in a West London house for nearly 20 years. It is a modernist house - all verticals, reflecting windows and sliding partitions – and seemingly the ideal residence for two artists who each work independently at home in their separate spaces, occasionally communicating briefly by intercom. Throughout EXHIBITION we see D and H living together, working separately, communicating or failing to communicate – in a series of moments depicting a long-term relationship that sometimes seems to be in meltdown, at other times extremely strong. It’s autumn. H suggests to D that she’s unwilling to discuss her work with him; she says she’s reluctant to expose herself to his criticism.

AWAY FROM HER is a beautifully moving love story that deals with memory and the circuitous, unnamable paths of a long marriage. Married for 50 years, Grant (Gordon Pinsent) and Fiona’s (Julie Christie) commitment to each other appears unwavering, and their everyday life is full of tenderness and humour. This serenity is broken only by the occasional, carefully restrained reference to the past, giving a sense that this marriage may not always have been such a fairy tale. This tendency of Fiona’s to make such references, along with her increasingly evident memory loss, creates a tension that is usually brushed off casually by both of them. As the lapses become more obvious and dramatic, it is no longer possible for either of them to ignore the fact that Fiona is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. Eventually, Fiona decides that it is time for her to enter into Meadowlake, a retirement home that specializes in the disease.

Einheit, Will Oldham, Kim Gordon, Mika Vainio, Bruce Gilbert, Ulrich Krieger, Warren Ellis, Jim White, Jennifer Hoyston, Andria Degens, Spider Stacy PAINTINGS by John Armleder, Steven Parrino [until 14 May 06] FEATURE FILM by Kristian Levring [until 14 May 06] An exhibition conceived by Mathieu Copeland Co-produced by forma and Musée Art Contemporain Lyon Musée Art Contemporain Lyon presents a major new time-based project that confounds traditional expectations of an exhibition. Soundtrack for an Exhibition comprises three main elements: a specially commissioned sound score, an exhibition of paintings and a feature film. The soundtrack is broadcast both inside and outside of the museum for 96 days, whilst the paintings and feature film are presented in the gallery space for 69 days. The sound piece, composed by Susan Stenger and featuring contributions from a stellar list of international musicians, employs an archetypal pop song structure ‘exploded’ in form to last 96 days. During this period a feature film [The King Is Alive, by Danish filmmaker and Dogme95 signatory Kristian Levring], screened not in its final, edited version, but as the entire footage shot in its making - will be shown in the gallery. Presented alongside in the gallery space will be an exhibition of paintings, including the late American painter Steven Parrino’s Slow Rot works and large scale commissioned Puddle Paintings and Pour Paintings realised in situ by Swiss artist John Armleder – all unstable paintings that both evolve and decay over time.

There is an "Irish spring" happening in the cin- ema, but it has nothing lo do with Colgate-Palmo- live or bath soap. These are just a few of the major Irish films that have been accessible to American audiences in theaters during the 199O's. Many are available on video, as are a score of other titles from the last decade, some familiar, some not. like "Cal," "Mona Lisa," "The Field," "Hear My Song," "The Playboys." "The Commitments," "The Snapper," "Widow's Peak," "Frankie Starlight," "Circle of Friends," "Into the West." They're all "Irish" in the sense that they're about the Irish, substantially pro- duced in Ireland, and/or (more and more common- ly) created by Irish companies and talent. "Frankie Starlight," for example, is produced by Irishman Noel Pearson but adapted from American Chet Raymo's novel. The Dork of Cork. It's abtuit a dwarf who grows up in lieland after World War II, the son of a Frenchwoman and an American G.I., discovers astronomy, becomes a famous author and finds true love. It was made mostly in Ireland with an international cast directed by Michael Lindsay- Hogg, who. although English, is the accomplished son (he directed the "Brideshead Revisited" minis- eries for British television) of the durable Irish-bom actress Géraldine Fitzgerald.
