Thirteen Blackbirds Look at a Man Fiona MacDonald, Cathie Pilkington, Annie Whiles & Sean Ashton Sat 11 July — Sun 6 Sep The artists in this exhibition seek out resonance and allegiance through myth. Whatever the demands of contemporary fashion, their work follows an instinctive urge, to a place where the day-to-day recedes and allows for the fruiting strangeness of the imaginative realm. We live in a complex world in which connectivity — once seen as magical — can now be understood in rational ways. And yet there is always a surplus, an inexplicable knowledge: mythology supplies a reservoir of elaboration on these ‘mysteries’. It is a place where allegorised, complicated series of events can attempt to demystify the laws of nature
and the universe, whilst remaining fantastically impervious to reason. It is a domain that embraces contradiction and caprice and at times the cruelty and drama of the stories is breathtaking. These artists commit themselves, entering the space of the instinctual with some urgency and a handful of humour. Their works have a quality of unfolding to reveal ideas of visual mysticism, neo-religious feeling, or dark import. The characters may originally have been sourced from real life, Bible stories, Greek myths or German fairy tales, but all are forged and formed by allegiance to a particular quality of ‘sacred narrative’.

Fiona MacDonald draws on the cultural rules of fairy tale and the imagination, where the traditional hierarchy between human, animal and plant dissolves, to explore ideas around uncertainty, hybridity and interdependence. www.fionamacdonald.co.uk
Sean Ashton is a liar based in London. Recent lies include ‘Mr Heggarty Goes Down’, a story about an academic who uses his body to test out his philosophy of radical contingency; and ‘The Portrait of Cary Grant’, a satire on a collector of celebrity artworks. In 2007 he published a book of lies, ‘Sunsets and Dogshits’ (Alma Books), a collection of reviews of apocryphal artworks, books, sporting events and other cultural phenomena.

Cathie Pilkington creates pieces from a vast array of materials, adopting ready-made elements, which are freely assembled, as well as incorporating modelling, carving, painting and other finishes to her works. www.marlboroughfineart.com Annie Whiles works with art as a suspect activity. She is interested in who magic belongs to, as a kind of cultural lost property. Her work refers to an emblematic language, ceremonial, ritualistic and social artefacts of affiliation in the form of woodcarving, hand embroidery, drawing and film. www.anniewhiles.com Exhibition open: Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday & Sunday 12–6pm; Thursday & Friday 12–8pm; closed Monday

Artists Fiona MacDonald, Cathie Pilkington and Annie Whiles will be in conversation with independent curator and writer Angela Kingston to discuss their work and themes in the exhibition. The publication will be available to purchase on the night at the discounted price of £5, usual price £10. Angela Kingston is a freelance curator and writer. She has a particular interest in exploring themes and preoccupations that bubble up in artists’ studios and which relate to the current zeitgeist, ‘spirit of the age’. Her exhibitions and public art projects have been realised in galleries and other locations throughout the UK since 1985, including 3AM: Wonder, Paranoia and the Restless Night which was staged at Chapter in 2013 and Fairy Tale, involving the retelling of fairy stories and fantastical landscapes in 2007.

ART IN THE BAR
Fiona MacDonald: Wild Word Fri 26 June — Sun 6 Sep “I wish to speak a word for Nature” Henri David Thoreau Wild Word is presented as part of Thirteen Blackbirds Look at a Man which is also in the Gallery. The alphabet is emblematic of abstract, anthropocentric notions of meaning, so draws a sharp contrast with the organic, growing materiality of the trees. The ‘letters’ are selected and arranged from an ongoing collection of photographs of found shapes that MacDonald interprets as signs and communications from nonhuman nature. The work’s (playful, serious, deep, shallow) proposition is that gestures and forms can be proffered and interpreted across species divides. The meaning of these signs may also be more abstract, or embodied. In making and observing paintings, one reads subtle shifts in weight, colour, texture and sheen as meaningful, which has parallel with the way a naturalist learns to watch for traces of scuff, hair or track to sense the activity of an animal: each mark can signify a change in direction or intent. Wild Word also reflects on ideas around sacred and profane symbology — the hidden meanings found in objects or images only legible to the initiated. One manifestation of this was the medieval Christian ‘doctrine of signatures’ — the idea that plant and animal parts would aid the function of the organs (or relieve the disease) that they were considered to resemble.
Thomas Williams Live Guide I work as part of the Visual Arts team at Chapter, based mainly in the Gallery. I started as a volunteer usher and was lucky enough to get my current job in September of last year. Chapter Gallery is a great space to work in, partly because many of the people who come to look at the shows there are not at Chapter primarily to visit an exhibition. Talking to people who may not have a contemporary art vocabulary is often a fresh and illuminating way to engage with the work on show. I’ve had some great conversations and each one has given something to the work; exhibitions are never the same when they close as they were when they opened. As a Welsh learner, I recently gave my first ever Welsh language tour of the exhibition. Finding ways to talk about the work in Welsh was exciting and gave the show yet another layer for me. I’m spending time in Venice this summer, working with Helen Sear’s Wales in Venice exhibition ‘...the rest is smoke’. This is a fantastic opportunity to engage with a show, and its audience, outside of my comfort zone of Welsh and English. I also get to see some of the best art there is, meet art-engaged people from all over the world and spend time in an extraordinary city, thinking about and developing my own artistic practice. See page 7 for details of Gallery talks ‘Talk at 2’.

Oh Hello! Sat 1 + Sun 2 Aug 8pm Charles Hawtrey was one of the leading lights of the Carry On film franchise. Bubbly, energetic and extremely funny, Hawtrey was one of the best known comedy actors of the 40s, 50s and 60s. However as his career waned so his behaviour became more drunken, promiscuous and eccentric, losing him many friends in an age when male homosexuality in Britain was illegal and punishable by a prison sentence. Performed by Jamie Rees in what would have been the centenary year of Hawtrey’s birth, this one-man show regales stories of his 50 years in the film industry working with the likes of Alfred Hitchcock and starring in films including The Ghost of St Michael’s, Passport to Pimlico and a total of twentyone Carry Ons. Hear of his hilarious run-ins with Kenneth Williams and his disdain for the Carry On producers as well as his complex relationship with his senile mother. £12/£10/£8
“Rees superbly captures the camp actor’s voice and mannerisms… you will laugh and cry in equal measure” The Western Mail
Mimosa By Tim Baker Sat 8 Aug 7.30pm (Please note this is a Welsh language performance) The epic journey of the Welsh settlers who created a Wales beyond Wales. 150 years ago, on 28 May 1865, a ship called The Mimosa set sail from Liverpool for Patagonia. On board were a group of hopeful Welsh families in search of their Patagonian oasis, committed to setting up a Welsh community 7,000 miles away. But their expected paradise was a devastating myth. After years of hardship and against all odds, they succeeded, and that Welsh speaking community continues to exist in Patagonia today. This musical show, Mimosa, is performed by a unique gathering of young people from both Wales and Patagonia, together with professional actors. Following this performance at Chapter, the show will tour Patagonia, sharing the story of how the first Welsh community settled in South America.

Christian Longo is arrested in Mexico, accused of murdering his wife and three children, on the run after posing as disgraced New York Times journalist Michael Finkel.

Beginning in the early 90s and unfolding over two decades, this is the story of club kid Paul and his friends, growing up in the development of the creatively fertile “French touch” electronic music scene. Moving swiftly from illegal raves to international success for groups such as Daft Punk, we see the reality of those whose lives were intertwined with the success. Fresh beats and euphoria give way to mellow melancholia as Paul struggles to balance the intoxicating pursuit of his art without losing love and health.

The Wolfpack Fri 21 — Thu 27 Aug USA/2015/80mins/adv15. Dir: Crystal Moselle.
The Angulo brothers have been brought up in one of the most exciting cities on the planet, but until recently none of them had ever left their New York apartment building. Nicknamed The Wolfpack and banned from leaving the building, to fill the gaps in their experience the boys became obsessed with film and re-enacted scenes, blending their hermetic reality with cinema’s distorted mirror to society. Shot over four years, this fascinating film charts their steps into society and individualism.

From L to R: Premature Burial, The Thing with Two Heads
chapter.org
Ray Milland Season Born Reginald Truscott-Jones in Neath, Ray worked as a horse trainer in Cardiff until he took up acting. He tried his luck in Hollywood, where he became a star and later took the reins himself and became a director, making some cult classics in between roles. Celebrated for his easy humour and powerful performances, we are taking a look at this Welsh Great’s varied and extraordinary career.
The Lost Weekend
X: The Man with the X Ray Eyes
USA/1945/98mins/PG. Dir: Billy Wilder. With: Ray Milland, Jane Wyman, Phillip Terry.
USA/1963/75mins/PG. Dir: Roger Corman. With: Ray Milland, Diana Van Der Vlis, Harold J. Stone.
Don Birnam, a troubled novelist with a serious drinking problem, escapes from the apartment his worried brother has confined him to for the weekend and launches himself on a self-destructive binge. Milland’s compelling performance made him the first Welsh actor to win an Oscar in this powerful film which was the first time that alcoholism had been depicted as a desperate addiction.
Renowned scientist Dr James Xavier develops a serum whilst experimenting with human eyesight. When applied he is able to see beyond the normal realm of our sight. As he continues to test the drug on himself, Xavier begins to see, not only through walls and clothes, but through the very fabric of reality.
Sun 2 + Tue 4 Aug
+ Join us for a post-screening presentation, discussion and debate on Sun 2 Aug with Tinted Lens, a new collaboration between Chapter, Cardiff University and the BFI. We will explore the mind and conceptions of normality and pathology, with a focus on loss and grief, fantasy and delusions, understandings of time and states of consciousness.
Premature Burial Sun 9 + Tue 11 Aug
USA/1961/78mins/15. Dir: Roger Corman. With: Ray Milland, Hazel Court, Richard Ney.
Guy Carrell is a man obsessed with the idea that he will be buried alive while in a state of catalepsy — a very real possibility in the early Victorian days of medicine. Convinced that a plot is being made against him, his fiancé Emily promises to cure him, but these prove to be empty words.
Sun 16 + Tue 18 Aug
The Thing with Two Heads Sun 23 + Tue 25 Aug
USA/1972/93mins/PG. Dir: Lee Frost. With: Ray Milland, Roosevelt Grier, Don Marshall.
A terminally-ill, racist brain surgeon who has been experimenting with head transplantation, convinces his colleague to perform such an operation on him. However, he gets his mind bent in all kinds of ways when his head is grafted onto a black prisoner on death row, intent on clearing his name. + Join filmmaker and horror fan Ben Ewart-Dean after the screening on Sun 23 Aug for a discussion around the themes of the film.
Love Story
Sun 30 Aug + Tue 1 Sep USA/1970/100mins/PG. Dir: Arthur Hiller. With: Ali MacGraw, Ryan O’Neal, Ray Milland.
Harvard pre-law student Oliver Barratt IV falls in love with music student Jenny Cavilleri. Oliver’s father disapproves of Jenny’s blue-collar background and cuts off his son’s allowance after their wedding. However, the couple is blissfully happy, until Jenny is diagnosed with an incurable disease. Milland gives an outstanding late career performance in this emotional cinema classic.

Fri 28 Aug — Thu 3 Sep France/2015/100mins/subtitles/15. Dir: Anne Fontaine. With: Gemma Arterton, Jason Flemyng, Fabrice Luchini.
In this charming comedy, British couple Gemma and Charles Bovery emigrate to a small Normandy village, moving in opposite middle-aged local baker and Flaubert fan Martin Joubert. Their neighbour’s imagination leads him to draw parallels between the doomed heroine Madame Bovary and Gemma. Determined to prevent the same tragic end, he becomes involved in their lives. + Join us for our book / film club Adaptations on Tue 1 Sep
Gemma Bovery: Adaptations Tue 1 Sep This film offers the chance to go down the rabbit hole of adaptations. Gemma Bovery, directed by Anna Fontaine, based on the graphic novel by Posy Simmonds which in turn is based on the French classic by Gustave Flaubert which in English is in translation (itself a form of adaptation). When art is made each audience member is bringing their own interpretation of the story so our Adaptations group discussion is a chance to pick apart these nuances in narrative filmmaking and have a good chinwag after the film so you can tell us what you think.
Fri 28 Aug — Wed 2 Sep UK/2015/91mins/12A. Dir: Chuck Workman. With: Orson Welles, Martin Scorsese, Peter Bogdanovich.
Music prodigy aged 10, painter and director of Shakespeare aged 14 and star of stage and radio aged 20, Orson Welles directed what is often voted the best film ever made aged 25. To say he had a magical and extraordinary life feels like an understatement. This documentary draws from scenes from his prolific career and features examples of Welles’ celebrated quick wit and his famous admirers.
Look out for our tribute to Orson Welles in September.
RSC Live: Othello Wed 26 Aug UK/2015/240mins/no cert. Dir: Iqbal Khan. With: Hugh Quarshie, Lucian Msmati.
Othello is a fearsome warrior, loving husband and revered defender of Venice against its enemies. But he is also an outsider whose victories have created enemies; men driven by prejudice and jealousy who are determined to destroy him.
