Anne Maree Barry

anne maree barry says hi I started this blog in 2007. No one had heard of The Wire and I was making experimental films that a select few saw. My initial tagline for this blog was: 'I write concisely. always. I'm trying to improve this - however, sometimes few words work better'. Then I found Twitter. However, I still post here once a week, so feel free to comment or just to simply say hii.	affiliates AnneMareeBarry Still Films Dark Light Paul Rowley Eoghan Kidney Alan Butler My Tweets My Vimeo Common Ground Mad decent Warrior One Cake
Tuesday, February 16, 2010 @ 3:10 AM Image Magazine & Anne Maree Barry In her new film, Rialto Twirlers, below, screened to acclaim at this year's Dublin Film Festival, visual artist and filmmaker Anne Maree Barry captures the eponymous Dublin-based majorette troupe preparing for a national competition. It's a deceptively simple notion, one resulting in a captivating, superbly assembled whirl of sheer syncopated fabulousness. Barry's observational work captures, in her words "a creative fusion of the hard graft, skill and energy associated with our pluralistic age in which anything is possible". It's a fascinating, joyful work from an intriguing young talent. www.annemareebarry.com Labels: Anne Maree Barry, Derek O Connor, Image Magazine, JDIFF, Rialto Twirlers back to top? 2 comments
Tuesday, October 6, 2009 @ 1:35 AM Crag Hill (2009) @ Straylight - The Darklight Film Festival's Art Programme Crag Hill - Video Still © Anne Maree Barry Crag Hill heaves to-and-fro. Through it’s expansive greenery comes a figure. A barefoot girl in a yellow dress walks towards the camera. She speaks about a road and a moment of clarity. Crag Hill explores issues of displacement and attachment to a particular event in the filmmaker’s life. It is a surrealist infected story blending truth and fiction. Crag Hill is the second collaboration between Anne Maree Barry and the artist Sunken Foal. Sunken Foal has recently contributed to the online music project Relay Project, commisioned by the Model Arts and Niland Gallery, Sligo. Crag Hill will be installed in a room on the lowest floor of the Light House Cinema by screens 1+2 from this Thursday the 8th of October until Sunday the 11th. The launch of Darklight is on at 7pm at The Court Yard Restaurant, Duck Lake, Smithfield, Dublin. Please private message me if you would like an invite.
