Starting your evening with a bite to eat in our Caffi Bar? You can continue your musical voyage as our apocalyptic Art in the Bar exhibition, Hollywood Dooom (p6–7) is by Stanley Donwood, famous for creating most of Radiohead’s album art.

3AM: wonder, paranoia and the restless night Until Sun 2 March

Francis Alÿs, Tonico Lemos Auad, Jordan Baseman, Sandra Cinto, Dorothy Cross, Dornith Doherty, Anthony Goicolea, Marc Hulson, Rachel Kneebone, Nathan Mabry, Michael Palm & Willi Dorner, Hirsch Perlman, Ed Pien, Lucy Reynolds, Sophy Rickett, Paul Rooney, Anj Smith, Fred Tomaselli, Danny Treacy, Bettina von Zwehl and Tom Wood. It is 3am, the hour of the wolf, and you are awake. Will the night carry you into the unknown? Will you be engulfed by your imaginings? Will darkness overcome you? This exhibition probes 3am as a state of mind. 3am is infinity, freedom and adventure, and a between state. It is the hour of the desperate and lonely, the criminal hour, the hour when ghosts and monsters are on the move and nature’s hour, when animals are on the prowl. The twenty-two featured artists venture into the far reaches of the

night; to the time when we are at our most adventurous and also at our most vulnerable. Their artworks explore the exhilarations and also the distortions of the night. 3am: wonder, paranoia and the restless night is a Bluecoat exhibition curated by Angela Kingston. A 3am anthology, with illustrations of the artworks and writings about the night, is published by Liverpool University Press and is available from Chapter.

ART IN THE BAR Stanley Donwood: Hollywood Dooom Until Sun 2 Mar Stanley Donwood is mischievous. He likes to play with perception and reality in real life as much as he does in his artwork. He casts a chink of light you think brings clarity yet you look closer only to find it’s artificial and of source unknown. You spin yourself into an interpretive web of your own making and find yourself lost. Real is not real. Statements and commentary and comments contradict. Donwood is solid, but ungraspable. If there is any message from Donwood, it is that meaning and perception are complex. Perspectives shift. Context distorts. His Lost Angeles body of work is a series of Doomsday-depicting linocuts including Hollywood Dooom, a monster panorama. Originally carved into eighteen separate panels of linoleum then hand burnished onto Japanese Kozo paper, the work sees the City of Angels being dismantled, ripped apart in ways impossible to misinterpret.

But Lost Angeles is not a one-dimensional chastisement of modern materialistic culture. Look deeper into the work and you’ll find more references, more elements, more shades of meaning and context. Look into any work from Donwood and you will see how complex a seemingly simple image can be. You see, just as Donwood’s life is a jigsaw of scraps of information and half-truths, his work, too, is always a jigsaw of influence and meaning and perception. Even when he seems to be helping you form an opinion, as with Lost Angeles, he is really only guiding you to certain pieces of the puzzle. The rest, you have to work out for yourself. Jon Severs Jon Severs is a writer and freelance journalist This text is an edited version of an essay commissioned by and available from Chapter.

Andy Fung, Tech Waves, 2013

Lightbox Andy Fung: Tech Waves Until Mon 31 Mar Andy Fung has a unique pictorial style in which the principles of surrealism are injected with a healthy dose of pop culture. Liberated and playful, his intriguing graphic utopias appear on canvases but are also often given to popping up unexpectedly as paintings directly on the wall. Like graffiti, they resist commodification and last only until painted over. The sphere from which the imagery is drawn is harder to identify. Real graffiti itself, science fiction illustration, fantasy art, cartoons, graphic design associated with music and club culture, as well as the genuinely organic in the natural world, are all filtered through the artist’s unconscious. His work at times feels intensely futuristic, a kind of art that might be imagined for an intelligent sci-fi film, set in a future where the connection with the past has been ruptured or is only dimly remembered. For Chapter, Andy has created a site-specific work — a mass of meticulously rendered shapes and forms that emerge like psychedelic waves from a black hole.

Biography Andy completed a BA at Falmouth School of Art and Design and an MA at UWIC, Cardiff where he now lives and works. Recent projects include ‘Piano Customisation’, Marburae Gallery, Macclesfield, ‘Chasing the Line’, Mello Mello, Liverpool (both 2013); ‘Welsh Artist of the Year’, St Davids Hall, Cardiff (2012) and a site-specific commission at the Boiler House, Cardiff (2011). He had a solo exhibition at UNI.ART Gallery, Gothenburg, Sweden in November 2013 and is working with DEBUT Contemporary, London, UK. Alongside his art practice, Andy is a member of No Thee No Ess whose album ‘Spring Dawn Glow’ was released in 2012, and his solo project Cymbient’s third album ‘I Saw Energy’ (Folkwit Records) was released in March 2013. www.andyfung.co.uk

Call for participants

Lleisiau/Voices “Lleisiau/Voices” is a performance project produced through a creative partnership between Chapter and good cop bad cop. Commissioned as part of Dylan Thomas 100, a year-long programme of cultural and academic activity inspired by the life and work of Dylan Thomas, to mark the centenary of his birth. It aims to uncover and present to the public the diversity of uses of the human voice in both official languages of Wales, and others spoken by the people who live in Wales. It will present live and mediated presentations of a wealth of vocal stylings, formats and techniques, from Wales and further afield. We want to forefront these more unusual uses of the voice, be it at work or play. Auctioneers, commentators, bingo callers, shepherds, totters, newspaper vendors, voice-over artists, bird impersonators, whistlers, yodellers or distinctive Welsh vocal forms like cyd-addrodd and canu penillion. The project will tour in early 2014, and everyone will be welcome to come and present their vocal speciality at our open days. From there, we will be selecting people to take part in a series of three live performances at Chapter, from 8–10 of May. If you can’t make it to one of the open-days, there will also be the opportunity to submit audio and video to us, and a selection of these will also be woven into the live presentation, in addition to specifically devised contributions from New York, New Zealand and Wales.

Open days: Sat 1 Feb: Chapter, Cardiff Sat 15 Feb: Y Ffwrnes, Llanelli Sun 16 Feb: Theatr Mwldan, Cardigan Sat 15 Mar: Hirael Community Centre, Bangor Sun 16 Mar: Oriel Wrecsam, Wrexham

InternationalPerformanceFestival-CardiffWorkshop-Group Weekly from Thu 6 Feb 7.30pm In June 2014, Chapter will host a new International Performance Festival, directed by theatre director and Chapter’s former Theatre Programmer, James Tyson (Intangible Studio). The festival will provide an opportunity to engage with artists whose works in some way extend notions of the possibilities of art, as developed from a sense of place, social change or community. From February, James will lead a weekly workshop/discussion/study group for local practitioners, artists, audiences and students to explore some of the ideas and contexts of the festival, as well as to try out or observe potential models for making work, whether individually or collaboratively. To attend the International-PerformanceFestival-Cardiff-Workshop-Group, please write a short email of interest to James at intangiblestudio@gmail.com

I’m looking forward to From Now On, a new festival of adventurous music to be held 14-15 February. The line up I’ve curated focuses on acts who challenge the boundaries of music and work outside of the mainstream. Each of the acts has been chosen for their leftfield approach and individuality. I’m particularly delighted to bring Lucky Dragons here, whose participatory performances could happily be defined as sonic art as much as music. It will be two days of exploratory, entertaining and thrilling music. We look forward to welcoming you!

Acts include LA experimental collective Lucky Dragons, known for their participatory approach to making music and radically inclusive live shows a special solo piano performance from Euros Childs and Liverpool’s psychedelic flute-looping Laura J Martin.

The Blues have always been his main musical influence, but he also borrows from the world of jazz, rock and folk. The spring of 2011 saw the release of ‘Ffoaduriaid’ a comprehensive retrospective of Steve’s music, featuring seven albums and various individual tracks released by Steve between 1984 a 1999.

Tue 25 Feb 8pm Rachel Newton, Lucy Farrell, Emily Portman and Alasdair Roberts. This new collective brings together four of the finest, award-winning musicians on the UK folk scene and delves into the obscure world of balladry at its darkest and quirkiest. Each singer airs lesser-known gems from their traditional repertoire, with an eclectic backing of harp, guitar, viola, concertina, banjo, musical saw and rousing harmonies. With a bold, improvisatory approach, their common focus is to capture the raw edges and fleeting magic of ballads, with storytelling taking centre stage. Emily and Alasdair are both known for their original, folklore-influenced songwriting and, often finding themselves on the same bills, they struck up a musical friendship, sharing stages and collaborating on each other’s albums. Lucy and Rachel are both successful solo artists in their own right as well as being sought-after session players and long-time collaborators with Emily Portman and her trio. The collective will be releasing an album in February 2014 on Furrow Records. £10/£8

Carreg Lafar and Friends Fri 28 Feb 8pm Carreg Lafar means ‘speaking stone’, an echo stone. Active in the Welsh traditional music scene for some 20 years, their passionate and lively performances have changed many people’s view of Welsh folk music. Through a mix of traditional and original music, the group present a vibrant spirit with its roots in the language and living tradition of Welsh song and dance music. The band has recently recorded a new EP ‘Y Cadno’ (The Fox) with a view to releasing a new album this year. £10/£8

Of Mice and Men Thu 6 + Fri 7 Feb 8pm “A guy needs somebody - to be near him. Don’t make no difference who the guy is, long’s he’s with you.” Of Mice and Men tells the story of George Milton and Lenny Small, two very different men bound together by providence. Set against the backdrop of the American Great Depression, our hapless protagonists hatch a plan to leave their life of poverty behind and start anew. It seems so simple, and perhaps that’s what is so beautiful about it, but little do they know, fate still has a hand to play. John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men barely needs an introduction. Since its first début on stage in 1937, it has become a staple of British theatre. Steinbeck’s gripping and dramatic tale of two men with a single dream is told bravely and in stunning detail by Tin Shed Theatre Co. who pride themselves on consistently re-inventing the ways in which stories can be told. The company was formed in 2008 by Justin Cliffe, Georgina Harris and Antonio Rimola. £12/£10

Having hidden stolen swag before his arrest, it’s not long before his cellmate, the sinister evangelist Harry Powell, gets wind of the loot.

In the LA of the near-future Theodore Twombly, lonely and heartbroken after the end of his marriage, makes his living writing personal letters for other people. When he purchases an operating system that’s designed to meet his every need, they develop an unlikely relationship as their friendship deepens. A beautiful, offbeat tale about modern love.

La Belle et La Bête ♥ Sun 16 + Tue 18 Feb France/1946/99mins/subtitles/PG. Dir: Jean Cocteau. With: Jean Marais, Josette Day, Mila Parely.

A merchant gets lost in the forest and enters a strange castle. He picks up a rose for his daughter Beauty, causing the castle’s owner, a monster, to appear. Part man, part beast with magic powers, the Beast sentences the merchant to death unless one of his daughters replaces him.

Only Lovers Left Alive ♥

The Invisible Woman ♥

Fri 28 Feb — Thu 13 Mar

Fri 28 Feb — Thu 6 Mar

USA/2013/123mins/15. Dir: Jim Jarmush. With: Tilda Swinton, Tom Hiddleston, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt.

UK/2013/111mins/12A. Dir: Ralph Fiennes. With: Ralph Fiennes, Felicity Jones, Joanna Scanlan, Kristen Scott Thomas.

This vampire romance tells the story of Adam, a centuries old vampire and underground musician who is unable to get accustomed to the modern world and the depressing direction that human society is taking. Seeking out his lover, Eve, they are reunited but their idyll is tested by her wild and uncontrollable little sister. Stylish and accompanied by an incredible soundtrack, this is a wintry cool gothic tale.

Shy schoolteacher Ellen carries her past like a stone, haunted by memories of her youth when she was known as the actress Nelly Ternan and involved in a passionate relationship with a much older man, author Charles Dickens. The romance, which developed at the height of his fame, could never be publically acknowledged due to the repressive society, not to mention Dickens’ wife and ten children, and Nelly was a secret to be kept hidden. With incredibly measured performances, this is a powerful and subtle second film from director Fiennes.

From L to R: Only Lovers Left Alive, The Invisible Woman

Fri 31 Jan — Thu 6 Feb

USA/2013/130mins/15. Dir: John Wells. With: Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper, Julia Roberts, Benedict Cumberbatch.

Cambodia/2013/90mins/subtitles/12A. Dir: Rithy Panh.

August: Osage County

The strong-willed women of the Weston family, whose lives have diverged, are brought together by a family crisis that brings them back to the Midwest house they grew up in, and to the dysfunctional woman who raised them. The dark secrets of the family come to the surface after their alcoholic patriarch goes missing.

American Hustle Fri 31 Jan — Thu 13 Feb USA/2013/129mins/15. Dir: David O Russell. With: Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Jennifer Lawrence.

Set in the alluring world of one of the most stunning scandals to rock America. Irving Rosenfeld is forced to work for a wild FBI agent, Richie DiMaso and is pushed into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and Mafia that is as dangerous as it is enchanting. Caught between the con-artists and the Feds is Carmine Polito, the passionate volatile New Jersey political operator. But is Irving’s unpredictable wife the one to pull the thread that brings their entire world crashing down?

In April 1975 when the Khmer Rouge entered Phnom Penh, the Cambodian filmmaker Rithy Panh was 13 years old. With the coup came the destruction of communities and families as well as the obliteration of a culture and its artifacts. Without the luxury of childhood photographs and souvenirs, Panh combines unusual elements of archival footage and stop-motion animation to tell the story of what happened to his people and his personal struggle in this hypnotic and poetic documentary. Winner Un Certain Regard Cannes Awards 2013.

“The Missing Picture contextualizes cinema not only as a form of magic (capable of transformative, elated power), but also of revolution.” Nick McCarthy, Slant

The Patrol Fri 7 — Thu 13 Feb UK/2013/85mins/ctba. Dir: Tom Petch. With: Owain Arthur, Nicholas Beveney.

Afghanistan, Helmand Province becomes one of the most dangerous places on earth as the British Army deploys into the Taliban heartland. An overextended British army patrol struggles to keep it together under increasingly tough conditions.

Inside Llewyn Davis

“To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time.” Leonard Berstein

Inside Llewyn Davis Fri 7 — Thu 20 Feb USA/2012/105mins/15. Dir: Ethan & Joel Coen. With: Oscar Isaac, John Goodman, Carey Mulligan.

Llewyn Davis is at a crossroads. Guitar and cat in tow, huddled against the unforgiving New York winter of 1961, he struggles to make it as a musician in the Greenwich Village folk scene against seemingly insurmountable obstacles — some of them of his own making. Living at the mercy of both friends and strangers, scaring up what work he can find, Llewyn’s misadventures take him from the basket-houses of the Village to an empty Chicago club — on an odyssey to audition for a music mogul — and back again. + Audio Descriptions and Soft Subtitles on Mon 10 Feb. (Please note this is subject to change. Please call our Box Office to confirm on week of release.)

Anvil! The Story of Anvil Mon 24 Feb Doors 7.00pm, film 8.00pm UK/2008/80mins/15. Dir: Sacha Gervasi.

Since 1978, Anvil have been one of heavy metal’s most influential yet commercially unsuccessful acts. This documentary follows the band as they set out to record their thirteenth album and continue to follow their dreams; a sad and heart-warming study of commitment, passion and the drive to succeed, literally, at all costs. Anvil: The Story of Anvil beautifully captures the relationship between founder members, Lips and Rob, and all its ups and downs, as they plough on toward their ultimate dream of rock stardom. Whether a music fan or not, ‘Anvil: The Story of Anvil’ is wonderful tale of friendship, loss and the all-encompassing desire to succeed.

USA/2013/117mins/15. Dir: Jean-Marc Vallee. With: Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Jared Leto.

In his first year at Columbia University in 1944, poet Allen Ginsberg meets Lucien Carr, whose passionate views on art and life lead him into the rabbit hole of the exhilarating and alternative literary underground. But with Carr comes David Kammerer; an obsessive older man whose infatuation with Carr leads to tragedy. This event became the Big Bang of the movement, forever linking Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs together and flinging them out on their individual journeys. An intoxicating and absorbing look at the beat generation finding its rhythm.

Homophobic Texas cowboy Ron Woodruff finds his freewheeling lifestyle overturned when he is diagnosed with HIV and told that he has only thirty days to live. Stunned and ostracised by his old friends, he seeks out anything that will keep him alive. Smuggling unapproved alternative medicine over the border from Mexico, he strikes up an unlikely alliance with troubled drag queen Rayon. Teaming up to sell treatments to the growing numbers of HIV and AIDS patients neglected by the medical establishment, they find dignity and strength in their fight for acceptance. This is an unforgettable true story about the transformative power of resilience, boasting fiery performances and a sharp screenplay.

Out of the Furnace Fri 14 — Thu 27 Feb USA/2013/116mins/15. Dir: Scott Cooper. With: Casey Affleck, Christian Bale, Forest Whitaker.

Russell and his younger brother Rodney live in the economically-depressed Rust Belt, always dreaming of escaping to find better lives. When a cruel twist of fate lands Russell in prison, his brother is lured into one of the most violent and ruthless crime rings in the Northeast — a mistake that will cost him almost everything. Once released, Russell must choose between his freedom and risking it all to seek justice for his brother. A gripping and gritty thriller about fate and justice with powerful performances.

The Wolf of Wall Street Fri 21 — Fri 28 Feb USA/2013/165mins/18. Dir: Martin Scorsese. With: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jon Favreau, Jonah Hill.

Living it up with a yacht previously owned by Coco Chanel, a model girlfriend, free flowing champagne and money to burn, this is the true story of Jordan Belfort, whose rise and fall on Wall Street involved high-stakes fraud, mafia, corruption and the federal government. An exciting crime drama from Scorsese with a full-blooded, gleeful performance from DiCaprio.

Sup ‘n’ Scran Yorkshire Ale Festival March, date TBC ‘Ey up! Every year we like to host a festival that celebrates the idiosyncratic tastes of different regions of the UK. In 2012, we ran the Hopscotch Festival, with a fine array of Scottish beers and whiskys on offer. Last year it was Cornwall’s turn, and our Perrantide Pint and Pasty Festival went down a storm. For 2014 we have decided to bring you a taste of Yorkshire. The beer list has not yet been finalised mainly because Yorkshire has around 120 breweries to choose from — but rest assured that we fully intend to bring in beers not normally found in these southern climes. As for food, Yorkshire is renowned for hearty, rich main courses, coupled with sweet, sticky deserts (hands up if you’ve ever had Parkin cake?) — we’ll be looking to reproduce some of these dishes for our special festival menu. So if you’re feeling parky in March, come on in, and grab some scran or a sup from Up North. P.S — strictly no ferret-legging (look it up).
