Welcome

chapter.org

Welcome to our guide to all that’s happening during March. Have you ever wondered how artists and writers feed their creativity and make the work we get to enjoy? This month gives us a little insight, as prize-winning authors and artists descend on Chapter for XX Women’s Writing Festival (p14-15). A literary feast, there’ll be opportunities to hear favourite writers read from and talk about their work, as well as workshops on how to be a writer. Elsewhere, we’re pleased to host Samuel Hasler as artist in residence (p4-5). The Gallery will serve as an open studio in the lead up to the launch of his first published work. Over in the cinema, we’re always thrilled to feature homegrown talent. The Machine (p21), a dark thriller about the creation of the ultimate killing machine, features a pounding BAFTA-winning score by our very own Tom Raybould, whist Svengali (p21) follows hapless but loveable music lover Dixie as he moves from Wales to the big smoke to follow his dream of managing a successful rock band. WOW Film Festival returns from Fri 21 to Thu 27 Mar with another intriguing, eclectic selection of world cinema for you to enjoy (p25-29) including an offsite performance by Bollywood Brass Band at the Samaj Community Centre. In other news, our popular regional beer festival is back. Last year we went all Cornish and this time we’re heading up north for a taste of Yorkshire. Find out more about our aptly named Sup ‘n’ Scran festival on page 8. Thanks for reading and see you soon. Cover image: The Book Thief

INTERFERENCE: Samuel Hasler Tue 18 — Sun 30 Mar As part of our occasional INTERFERENCE programme, we are pleased to host gallery live guide Samuel Hasler, as artist-in-residence during March. In the lead up to the launch of his first published work, O, A Prayer Book, Samuel will be opening up his studio practice to the public. In this temporary studio, Samuel will present the imagery and processes that sit alongside his writing. In this, there is a precarious balance between fact and fiction; the writing and performances manipulate the mythology of the ‘wild bohemian’ artist at work.

Book launch and performance

Samuel Hasler: O, A Prayer Book Fri 28 Mar 6pm

An incantation and repetition of prayers marks the introduction to a young man’s isolated, creatively stifled existence. Deluded by the stagnating mythology of great European modernist artists, he escapes the drudgery of the supermarket nightshift, but not his perverse imagination. He travels to Moscow and Venice on a journey that causes reflection on his romantic ideas: his desire for a wild, bohemian life; his crude libido and his increasing doubts about his faith. The book operates as both a story and as a spine, connecting performances, readings, installations and printing, operating as material context for a body of work. The evening will feature performances and readings by Samuel Hasler and invited artists Katrina Palmer, Francesco Pedraglio and Sarah Tripp, each presenting material from their forthcoming books to be published by Book Works in 2014. No booking required O, A Prayer Book is published by Book Works and funded by the Arts Council of Wales.

In conversation

Why Do Artists Write? Samuel Hasler, Jane Rolo, Gavin Everall, Francesco Pedraglio and Katrina Palmer Sat 29 Mar 2.30 — 3.30pm

Whilst writing and publishing gives form to the exploration of varying discourses, it has remained — despite the historical significance of artists’ writing — a marginal, often misunderstood form of art. Samuel Hasler, Katrina Palmer and Francesco Pedraglio, with Book Works’ publishers and editors Jane Rolo and Gavin Everall, discuss the use of fiction, prose and spoken word and the shift to writing and publishing within the art world.

Residency open to the public: Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday & Sunday 12-6pm; Thursday & Friday 12-8pm; closed Monday

Book Works Pop-up Shop Sat 29 Mar 10am — 4pm

A selection of titles from Book Works’ back catalogue will be available to browse and buy, including publications by Jeremy Deller, Laure Prouvost, Susan Hiller and Liam Gillick.

Film screening

Berberian Sound Studio Sun 30 Mar 5pm

UK/2012/92mins/15. Dir: Peter Strickland. With: Toby Jones, Cosimo Fusco, Antonio Mancino.

When a naïve and introverted sound engineer is hired to mix the latest film by horror maestro Santini, he spends his time surrounded by bloodcurdling screams and the sounds of hacked vegetables. He finds himself lost in an otherworldly spiral of sonic and personal mayhem. As much a celebration of predigital filmmaking and the giallo genre as it is a striking and unpredictable psychological horror. + Introduction by Samuel Hasler, connecting Giallo film with his residency and publication. Turn to page 19 for other cult films showing this month.

Biography Samuel Hasler lives and works in Cardiff. His approach to making artwork is varied; it includes writing, performance, printmaking and installations. He has recently presented work with Book Works (London), The Whitstable Biennale, Spike Island (Bristol), and The Arnolfini (Bristol). www.samuelhasler.co.uk

Book Works is an art commissioning organisation specialising in artists’ books, spoken word and printed matter, dedicated to supporting new work by emerging artists. www.bookworks.org.uk

Andrew Morris, What’s Left Behind? 2013. 6x7" medium format

ART IN THE BAR Andrew Morris: What’s Left Behind? Fri 14 Mar — Sun 18 May The interiors depicted in Andrew Morris’ photographs appear calm and contemplative, in a transitory place — somewhere between occupied and vacant. Reading glasses still perched on the windowsill and bedrooms with beds that seem to have been freshly made — you could easily be mistaken in believing the owner has just popped out. But look a little closer and you’ll find something isn’t quite right. Wallpaper peeling from the walls, a single photograph on an otherwise empty bookshelf; these are homes in the process of being cleared out, homes that once belonged to someone who has passed away. Morris sensitively captures these scenes which are about more than the remaining possessions, and leads us to consider and reflect upon the ideas of home, family and ownership.

Biography Andrew Morris lives and works in Swansea and recently graduated from University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Swansea, where he studied Photography in the Arts. Morris is the first recipient of the Wales International Young Artist Award which was presented to him by the British Council Wales for this body of work. About the award The Wales International Young Artist Award was launched in 2013 by the British Council Wales with the aim of both identifying a new pool of young talent across the creative sectors and also nurturing it by offering young artists from Wales, national and international exposure. The winner receives a £500 prize and the opportunity to exhibit in six continents and over 100 countries.

From L to R: Sup ‘n’ Scran, Chapter Friend

Sup ‘n’ Scran Yorkshire Ale Festival Tue 4 — Sun 9 Mar ‘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. Over 30 beers have been specially selected from Yorkshire’s many breweries, bringing in a wide selection 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).

Iain Goosey in partnership with Chapter presents

Contractions By Mike Bartlett Directed by Kate Wasserberg Design by Max Jones and Ruth Hall Lighting Design by Nick Beadle Sound Design by Dyfan Jones Wed 5 — Sat 8 + Tue 11 - Sat 15 Mar, 8pm (matinee 2.30pm on Sat 15 only) ‘Come in. Sit down. How are you?’ Emma’s been seeing Darren. She thinks she’s in love. Her boss thinks she’s in breach of contract. Times are hard and good jobs are scarce. How far will Emma go to keep hers? Hilarious and heart-wrenching, Bartlett’s comedy invites you to a meeting at the dark heart of corporate life during times of austerity. Kate Wasserberg (A History of Falling Things, Salt, Root and Roe, Last Christmas) directs BAFTA award winning Sara Lloyd-Gregory (Hinterland, Alys, Belonging, Love and Money) and Catrin Aaron (Aristocrats, Salt, Root and Roe, A Doll’s House, The Indian Doctor) in the Welsh premiere of this ink-black satire from Olivier Award-winning playwright Mike Bartlett. This project is funded by the Arts Council of Wales and the Welsh Government via the National Lottery. £14/£12 Age 14+

Megan Price Marketing Manager Our Theatre programme is so strong at the moment that it’s difficult to pick out a highlight, but being a big fan of Waking Exploits I can’t wait to see what Iain Goosey has put together in Contractions. There are several young companies and producers currently bringing important contemporary plays to the Cardiff stage and, for me, this is a really encouraging sign about the future of Welsh theatre. My other highlight this month, without doubt, will be the chance for us to welcome A L Kennedy to Chapter as part of the XX Women’s Writing Festival. Such a privilege!

Cowbois Rhos Botwnnog

Cowbois Rhos Botwnnog + Kizzy Crawford Sun 2 Mar 8pm Cowbois Rhos Botwnnog was formed in 2005 by three brothers from the Llŷn Peninsula. At that time they played an eclectic mix of punkish, country-esque songs laced with a splash of traditional Welsh folk. By now, the band have adopted four other musicians and have established a more tender, harmony-filled folk and country sound. They’ve released three studio albums to rave reviews. Last year saw them performing regularly throughout Wales and beyond at The Green Man Festival, No Direction Home and the Dinefwr Literature Festival. Supporting on the night will be Kizzy Crawford, a young singer songwriter from Merthyr Tydfil who came to prominence in 2013. £8

Thu 6 Mar, Doors: 7.30pm Charlotte Church returns with FOUR — the fourth installment in an ambitious series of five selfrecorded, self-released records. Hot on the heels of EPs ONE, TWO and THREE, FOUR will be released on March 10 through her own label, Alligator Wine Records. 2013 was a year that saw Church emerge with critically acclaimed records and a tour of America and the UK. Where THREE dealt in impressionist soundscapes FOUR is a kaleidoscopic experimental pop record that slips confidently between muscular sci-fi psychedelia and low-slung NY party funk, mournful poly-rythms and paranoid soul. FOUR culminates in a paean to love that wrangles looped vocals, dance keyboards and immense euphoric guitars before collapsing into a delicate, Debussy-esque string and vocal outro. £15

Dammed Nations Wed 5 Mar 7.30pm

Wales and Nubia. Two lands. One shared legacy. Debuting in Wales in March 2014, Dammed Nations is a music tour featuring singer Siân James and guitarist Gai Toms, alongside traditional Nubian frame drummers Nuba Nour from Egypt. Collaborating for the first time, this promises to be an enchanting and engaging evening of music from Wales and Nubia. Political decisions and divisions from the 1960s continue to shape the current world. In Dammed Nations, voices from two seemingly unconnected communities unite on stage to recall the fates of the village of Capel Celyn in North Wales — lost to the

waters of the Tryweryn Reservoir — and the traditional Nubian homelands in Aswan, Egypt, drowned with the construction of President Nasser’s High Dam. The concerts will feature solo sets by each of the artists, along with a special collaboration featuring songs about Tryweryn and the continuing plight of the Nubian people. £14/£12 www.dammednations.com

From L to R: Our Town, Metamorphosis

Our Town

Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize winning play, ‘Our Town’ was described by The New York Times in 1938 as “the last word in experimental theatre”. Forerunner of works by Dylan Thomas, Pirandello and Brecht, David Mamet calls it the “Great American Play.” A ‘Stage Manager’ is our guide, as we consider Universal Truths revealed through daily life in ‘Grover’s Corners’, New Hampshire. Wilder claimed “The climax of this play needs only five square feet of boarding and the passion to know what life means to us.” £10/£8 (concessions only on Tue, Thu and Sat matinee performances) (Age 11+)

Metamorphosis One morning, travelling salesman Gregor Samsa wakes up to find himself transformed into a gigantic insect. After previously spending every waking moment as the sole provider, he and his family are forced into dealing with an impossible disability. Based on the classic novella written by Franz Kafka and adapted for the stage by Steven Berkoff, Act One presents Metamorphosis. A talented ensemble cast stylistically explores the harrowing story of a young man cast aside by everyone he cares for. £8/£6

Four performers with visual impairment invite you into their heads as their compelling life stories collide with the meteor of genetic science. With an exciting new score by acclaimed young composer Lloyd Coleman and extracts from Dr Oliver Sacks’ brilliant book, The Island of the Colour-blind*, 21st Century Dinosaurs is an adventure in vision.

Dinosaurs combines theatre and storytelling, music and video, light and sound in a show that will make you laugh, pierce your heart, stimulate your brain and finally make you see what it’s really like not to see. *(Copyright © Oliver Sacks 1997, used by permission of the Wylie Agency (UK) Limited), Supported by Arts Council of Wales, The Big Lottery Fund, Welsh Government, Chapter and Moorfields Eye Hospital.

Cult Films From the recently reissued Wake in Fright to latest release, Under the Skin, this month’s Cult Films get to grips with what makes us humans tick — our fears, desires and the countless ways people have conveyed these sensations on the big screen.

Rough Cut

Under the Skin

Sun 2 Mar

Fri 28 Mar — Thu 3 April

UK/2013/90mins/15. Dir: Jamie Shovlin.

UK/2013/108mins/cbta. Dir: Jonathan Glazer. With: Scarlett Johansson.

Exploring the remaking of Hiker Meat, a 70s slasher film that never was, featuring a hitchhiking heroine, charismatic commune leader and a group of teens who disappear one by one. This tantalising filmwithin-a-film deconstructs and pays homage to exploitation films and is an impressive, playful debut from Shovlin.

“Exploring the gulf between artist and patron, between high art and lowbrow, between fiction and reality.” Zombie Hamster

Wake in Fright Fri 7 + Sun 9 Mar Australia/1971/108mins/18. Dir: Ted Kotcheff. With: Donald Pleasence, Gary Bond, Chips Rafferty.

John Grant, a teacher, arrives in the rough outback mining town of Bundanyabba, planning to stay overnight before starting his holiday. But one night stretches to several, and with the aid of alcohol he plunges headlong toward his own destruction. A raw, sweaty, brutal, black thriller that many considered Australia’s great lost film, until its recent discovery and restoration. Warning: This film contains scenes of animal slaughter. + Introduction by film-maker and artist Ben Ewart-Dean on Fri 7 Mar.

“The best and most terrifying film about Australia in existence.” Nick Cave

After landing on Earth and slipping into the skin of a human woman, Scarlett Johansson’s space creature drives around Scotland seducing young men before one of them gives her pause to look at other aspects of human nature. An abstract, fascinating deconstruction of sexual power with a hypnotic musical score, this is a mesmerizing cinematic experience.

Berberian Sound Studio Sun 30 Mar UK/2012/92mins/15. Dir: Peter Strickland. With: Toby Jones, Cosimo Fusco, Antonio Mancino.

When a naïve and introverted sound engineer is hired to mix the latest film by horror maestro Santini, he spends his time surrounded by bloodcurdling screams and the sounds of hacked vegetables. He finds himself lost in an otherworldly spiral of sonic and personal mayhem. As much a celebration of predigital filmmaking and the giallo genre as it is a striking and unpredictable psychological horror. Artist Samuel Hasler will be in discussion with host Ben Ewart-Dean to discuss his explorations of contemporary Giallo. Turn to pages 4-5 for more information on Samuel Hasler’s INTERFERENCE artist residency.

Last Days Here Mon 10 Mar Doors 7.00pm, film 8.00pm USA/2011/91min/no cert. Event adv 18. Dir: Don Argott, Demian Fenton.

Mark Gubb Artist and Noys R Us head honcho. As a strand of Chapter’s Cine Phonic programme, Noys R Us takes the best in alt/punk/rock/metal cinema and shows it in its natural home — music bars and clubs. As a life-long rock and metal fan it’s a glorious self-indulgence but, thankfully, one that others enjoy too. From dyed-in-the-wool classics, like ‘The Decline of Western Civilisation Part II: The Metal Years’ to more contemporary offerings like ‘American Hardcore’, we’re trying to create the best music-movie night-in that you’ll ever go out for.

Cult rock legend Bobby Liebling has been churning out genre-defining hard rock for over 36 years, but various acts of self-destruction, multiple band break-ups and botched record deals have condemned his music to obscurity. Bobby is finally discovered by the heavy metal underground. With the help of Sean ‘Pellet’ Pelletier, his friend and manager,we see Bobby’s struggles to stay sober and focused long enough to play one more reunion concert. Tickets are £5 and can be purchased through www.chapter.org and The Full Moon

With demos sent out around London on ‘retro’ style cassettes, and with his enthusiastic approach it’s not long before he has record companies fighting over the band, but will Dixie’s small town charm overcome the cynicism of the big city?

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

France/2013/100mins/subtitles/18. Dir: Claire Denis. With: Vincent Lindon, Chiara Mastroianni, Julie Bataille.

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. Ostracised by his old friends, he seeks out anything that will keep him alive, striking up an unlikely alliance with troubled drag queen Rayon to sell treatments to people neglected by the medical establishment. Finding dignity and strength in their fight for acceptance, this is an unforgettable true story with fiery performances.

Marco returns to Paris after his brother-in-law’s suicide and targets the man his sister believes caused the tragedy. However, he is ill-prepared for her secrets, which quickly muddy the waters. A daringly fragmented film noir inspired by recent sex ring scandals, Denis takes us to the very heart of darkness in this thrilling commentary on capitalism.

From L to R: Dallas Buyers Club, Bastards

Only Lovers Left Alive Fri 28 Feb — Thu 13 Mar USA/2013/123mins/15. Dir: Jim Jarmush. With: Tilda Swinton, Tom Hiddleston, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt.

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.

“An addictive mood and tone piece, a nocturnal reverie that incidentally celebrates a marriage that has lasted untold centuries.” The Hollywood Reporter

The Invisible Woman Fri 28 Feb — Thu 6 Mar UK/2013/111mins/12A. Dir: Ralph Fiennes. With: Ralph Fiennes, Felicity Jones, Joanna Scanlan, Kristen Scott Thomas.

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 was involved in a passionate relationship with a much older man, the author Charles Dickens. The romance, which developed at the height of his fame, could never be publically acknowledged due to the repressive society of the time, not to mention Dickens’ wife and ten children, leaving Nelly a secret to be kept hidden. With incredibly measured performances, this is a powerful and subtle second film from director Fiennes. + Audio Descriptions and Soft Subtitles on Thu 6 Mar, 6pm.

USA/2013/131mins/12A. Dir: Brian Percival. With: Sophie Nelisse, Emily Watson, Geoffry Rush.

USA/2013/118mins/12A. Dir: George Clooney. With: George Clooney, John Goodman, Matt Damon, Cate Blanchet, Bill Murray.

1930s Germany, and a film that unusually shows life from the point of view of non-Jewish, non-Nazi Germans. Young Liesel is sent away to live with adoptive parents Rosa and Hans in a small town. Max, a young Jewish man, turns up seeking refuge and is hidden in the cellar. Liesel reads to him and seeing a keen imagination he encourages her to write. Her growing love of literature is at odds with the events in the world around her, as we see the freedoms Rosa and Hans have taken for granted stripped away under Nazi rule.

Based on the true story of the greatest treasure hunt in history, an unlikely World War II allied platoon is tasked with going into Germany to rescue artistic masterpieces from Nazi thieves and returning them to their rightful owners. With the artworks trapped behind enemy lines and the German army under orders to destroy everything as the Reich fell, the platoon, made up of museum curators and art historians, found themselves in a race against time to preserve our cultural legacy.

After a calamity-filled journey through a land scarred by war, he aims to bring unity to his tribe by entering the dangerous Rocket Festival for its cash-rich prize. A joyous, magnificently shot debut from documentarian Mordaunt, with feisty performances from the young cast.

“Mordaunt exhibits a clear-eyed observation and understanding of the country’s cultural milieu that evades any sense of offensive exoticism.” Nick McCarthy, The Slant

12 Years A Slave Fri 14 — Thu 20 Mar USA/2013/134mins/15. Dir: Steve McQueen. With: Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Fassbender, Lupita Nyong’o.

Based on the true story, published in 1853, of Solomon Northup, a free born black man living in upstate New York in pre-Civil War United States. Living a gracious life with his wife and children as a violinist, he is abducted through treachery and sold into slavery on a plantation in Louisiana, having to hide his free man mentality from the brutality of the slave owners.

Switzerland/2012/90min/subtitles/PG. Dir: Manuel von Sturler. With: Carole Noblanc, Pascal Egusier.

An entertaining comedy drama about Mwas, a country boy who sets off to Nairobi to become an actor but finds himself struggling for survival in the slums of the city. Adopted by charismatic car thief Oti, Mwas is drawn further into the city’s violent underworld. A fun, absorbing cocktail of Kenyan street life stirred by a fine central performance.

This delightful documentary follows Pascal and his long-suffering partner Carole as they drive their flock of sheep in the Swiss mountains. Pascale’s skills and unflinching attention to the natural world are revealed alongside moving reunions with families, and the inevitable hostility of rival farmers. Sleeping under the stars, sheltering from the rain, trudging through the snow, their ‘joie de vivre’ transforms this into a magnificent hymn to freedom.

Wakolda Sun 23 Mar Argentina/2013/93mins/subtitles/adv15. Dir: Lucia Puenzo. With: Natalia Oreiro, Diego Peretti, Alex Brendemuhl.

Gently striking, achingly tense, this subtly explores the shifting relationship between the dimunitive Lilith, a blonde, blue-eyed Argentinian girl and Josef Menegle, the Nazi doctor on the run for his crimes at Auschwitz. The tension that comes from knowing Mengele’s past — of which Lilith and her family are unaware — becomes almost unbearable as his relationship with Lilith grows closer. Beautifully shot against the bleak Patagonian mountains, this is a wonderfully atmospheric film.

Fireworks Wednesday Sun 23 Mar Iran/2006/98mins/subtitles/12A. Dir: Asghar Farhadi. With: Hamid Farokhnezhad, Hediyeh Tehrani, Taraneh Alidoosti.

Rouhi is excited about her imminent wedding, but glimpses another side of marriage when she comes to clean for a couple in the middle of an explosive domestic conflict.

Their portfolio might be a folder, sketchbook, video diary or a website — it’s up to them. When will it take place? There will be two evening sessions a month beginning Tue 8 Apr from 6 — 7.30pm.

Noroff College and University of South Wales Takeover Cardiff

On the 12th of October last year, Chapter presented a series of short animations as part of the Takeover Cardiff Project. Animation students, lecturers, young people, artists and musicians, as well as representatives from the British Council and the Film Agency of Wales gathered to watch the premiere screening of short films (and works-in progress) created through an online collaboration between animation students at the University of South Wales, Newport and Noroff College, Oslo. Over three weeks, the students from Newport and Oslo used still images of each other’s cities, taken and uploaded by themselves, to begin a creative journey, making short animations along the theme of ‘metamorphosis’ or ‘change’. Newport students also participated in a three-day Masterclass with Baftawinning animator Gerald Conn. The short films utilised a mixture of styles and technology, including detailed hand drawn stop motion animation, sand animation and computer-based digital animation. For many students this was the first opportunity to have their work screened in a major international cultural venue; the whole project giving the participants a taste of international collaboration within the animation industry. The project was made possible by the enthusiasm and guidance of Leonie Sharrock, USW and Adrian Skar, Noroff.
