Welcome to the Inaugural Bournemouth Arts by the Sea Festival We are delighted to present over fifty events and performances from some of the best artists, locally, nationally and internationally, many of which are special commissions for the festival. Our programme contains a spirited mix of dance, film, theatre, music, literature and poetry that reflects and harnesses, in many ways, the imaginative, original and special qualities of Bournemouth. We hope to build on this, our first year, to nurture the many creative talents in the town as well as bringing in some extraordinary and inspirational arts from further afield. We are proud to offer an exciting new dimension to entertain and inspire the people of, and visitors to, Bournemouth. My sincere thanks go to our festival funders, festival commissioning partners and festival sponsors, listed below, as well as to all the venues and artists who are supporting the festival this year. It is this crucial support that has enabled the Arts by the Sea Festival to happen and we hope that support for the festival will gather momentum in future years. Finally, make the most of the festival and take time to enjoy some of the outstanding and unusual events that we’ve put together for you.

THEDA Sat 8 Oct 20.00 £5 Advance Booking / £6 Pier Theatre 0844 576 4500 www.artsbournemouth.org.uk/festivaltickets
A photograph of an unknown woman who bore an uncanny resemblance to her mother was the starting point for Georgina Starr’s THEDA. The woman, silent film actress Theda Bara (1885-1955), had made over 40 films in her brief career, now all but two are lost or destroyed. With her mother and the many forgotten silent actresses in mind Starr began a year of performing alone in her studio. Building sets, creating props and costumes and acting out the expressions, roles and actions from the imagined lost films. This special one-off screening of THEDA at the Pier Theatre will be accompanied live by the German soprano Sigune von Osten. An internationally acclaimed singer and musician, Sigune von Osten has worked with many great composers including John Cage, Olivier Messiaen & Luigi Nono and has sung more than a hundred world premieres written for her unique voice. This will be the first UK performance of her specially composed live accompaniment. Georgina Starr has exhibited widely and internationally in group and solo exhibitions, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Venice Biennale and Tate Gallery. She lives and works in London.

ONE connects audiences everywhere with the world’s boldest filmmakers showcasing a universal programme of officially selected short films. Fusing music, performance, art, fashion and other interactive mediums, ONE celebrates our international creative culture.
The Cremaster Cycle The epic Cremaster Cycle by American master of conceptual art, Matthew Barney will be screened in its entirety for the festival in the atmospheric setting of the Pier Theatre. Critic Jonathan Jones called The Cremaster Cycle “The greatest fusion of Art and Cinema since Un Chien Andalou”. Created over a period of eight years, the five films, spanning genres and locales from a football stadium musical revue to a lyric opera in Budapest, encompassing a gothic Western, the Masonic secrets of the Chrysler Tower, and a motorcycle race along the way, were created out of chronological order, and each comprises a completely realised work in itself. The Cremaster Cycle is a vast five-part achievement of nerve and style.
