Tuesday, 24 January 2012, 1.30-6.00 pm, University College Cork, Ireland
CACSSS Research Seminar Room, G27, Ground Floor, Block B North, O' Rahilly Building, University College Cork

Followed by a reception and launch of the volume ANTONIONI: CENTENARY ESSAYS, edited by Laura Rascaroli and John David Rhodes (BFI/Palgrave Macmillan, 2011)


The cinema of Michelangelo Antonioni (1912-2007) embodies, more than that of any other director, the substance of European art cinema. His intensely stylised, stylish, demanding and gratifying films continue to spark controversy and debate and inspire intense allegiance. On the centenary of his birth, this workshop will reassess his remarkable contribution and continued centrality to world cinema, place his work in an expanded theoretical field, and develop scholarly debate within an interdisciplinary framework.

Speakers: Prof. Paolo Bartoloni (Italian, NUIG), Dr Matilde Nardelli (Film Studies, UCL), Dr Laura Rascaroli (Italian/Film Studies, UCC), Dr John David Rhodes (English, Sussex) and Dr Karl Schoonover (Film and Television, Warwick).
Respondents: Dr Stefano Baschiera (Film Studies, QUB), Dr Gary A. Boyd (Architecture, UCC), Dr Patrick Crowley (French, UCC), Dr Sabine Kriebel (History of Art, UCC), Prof. Patrick O'Donovan (French, UCC).
