Cinemas Reopen, St Vincent, Maylis de Kerangal, Festival Ticketing
What can we look forward to when cinemas reopen? Tim Robey and Yuan Ren review Nomadland and share their top picks.
Chloe Zhao鈥檚 Nomadland, which recently won best film at both the Oscars and Baftas, is leading the pack as cinemas reopen next week. Film critic Tim Robey and Chinese arts journalist Yuan Ren discuss Nomadland and what else we have to look forward to.
St Vincent鈥檚 latest album Daddy鈥檚 Home is inspired in part by her father鈥檚 release from 10 years in prison. The artist discusses getting personal for her sixth record, returning to the sound of the '70s and the female artists that paved the way for her.
A lack of commercial and government-backed insurance has led to the cancellation of many festivals this year with more cancellations expected if things don鈥檛 change. Marina Blake, co-founder and creative director of Brainchild Festival, has a plan to ensure her festival goes ahead. She talks to John about asking ticketholders to share the costs of the risk.
Author Maylis de Kerangal discusses Painting Time, her coming-of-age novel set in the world of decorative painting, following a young woman who finds herself discovering the world and herself through the art of trompe l鈥檕euil.
