Osbert Parker animation
Tonight we enter the world of Osbert Parker, a British animator whose distinctive style involves combining cut-out techniques with live action footage. The short we are screening tonight, Film Noir, has won awards at festivals from Raindance to Athens and will be followed by a chat with the filmmaker. You can get a flavour of its dazzling strangeness from this still:
Let us know what you think about this and other things on tonight's show.

It means what you think it means, the reaction created by the dialog between the artist and viewer. If the dialog consists of "A child could have painted that", then that is it's meaning for you.
With a little practice, you could run off drivel like I just did yourself. You really need to get out more.

On the same site you'll also find an extract from Rabbit, a 2005 film by Run Wrake who will be on tonight's show. I'll be posting more about that later today.

So here we are in 2008 on the culture show in the UK : Steve Mcqueen states that his work is not political, not just once but twice. A good warning to all us black artists and political artists out there. Leaving that aside, Would he like to explain his Royal Mail series which bears an uncanny resemblance to Parminder Sekhon's (oh dear, happens to be a political black artist) work entitled " Royal Mail Series" shown in 2005 at Watermans Arts Centre of war dead soldiers: http://www.redhotcurry.com/entertainment/galleries/lives_in_translation.htm
No wonder he doesn't want to be associated to politics...after all where would the commissions go and where be copyright...?
