THE BROTHERS QUAY
· The Quay brothers are two of the world's most original film-makers
·
Identical twins who were born in
Pennsylvania in 1947, Stephen and Timothy Quay originally studied illustration
and later on started to make animated short films in the 1970s.
·
Influenced by a tradition of Eastern
European animation, the Quays display a passion for detail, a breath taking
command of colour and texture, and an uncanny use of focus and camera movement
that make their films unique and instantly recognisable.
·
Best known for their classic 1986
film ‘Street Of
Crocodiles’
·
They are masters of miniaturisation
and on their tiny sets have created an unforgettable world.
