INTRODUCTION 3

             ver the last three years Cultural Cinema, an initiative
             of Element Pictures Distribution, has continued to
             bring the best opera, ballet and art exhibitions, both live
             streamed and pre-recorded, direct to your local cinema.
Expanding with each year, our season plays on more screens than
ever before. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your
ongoing support which has enabled us to return with one of the most
exciting seasons of Cultural Cinema to date.

This year we are delighted to welcome the Royal Opera House Live
Cinema Season back with twelve thrilling performances direct from
the famous stage at Covent Garden. The world’s greatest opera and
ballet stars, including Anna Netrebko, Joseph Calleja and Sarah Lamb,
will bring classical repertoire and brand new productions to life over
a season full of passion, magic and spectacle.

Alongside this superb line up of live opera and ballet, we will be
showing the new season of Exhibition on Screen. Curators and
experts from the world’s most renowned art institutions, such as The
Royal Academy of Arts and the Musée d’Orsay, will guide us through
the works of David Hockney and Canaletto, to name but a few.

We are also pleased to introduce a new series to Irish cinemas The
Italian Collection, seven wonderful films exploring the country's
cultural splendour and heritage, exclusively in cinemas only, audiences
can enjoy the sights and sounds of Italy on screen like never before.

Please join us for what promises to be an unforgettable season of
Cultural Cinema.

EXHIBITION ON SCREEN 13

Hello everyone,

I am delighted to be able to announce that the new season of
unique cinema art films is on its way from EXHIBITION ON
SCREEN. We are bringing you three major new films plus
two much-requested encore screenings of earlier films.

First up is the gloriously cinematic Canaletto & The
Art of Venice with exclusive access to Britain’s Royal
Collection and Buckingham and Windsor Palaces –
and plenty of Venice too.

Then comes a delightful film on David Hockney
At The Royal Academy – based on two
blockbuster shows that showed the energy
and creativity of Britain’s most popular
artist.

Then from Paris, London and Washington
DC comes a film about Paul Cézanne
– a fascinating man who has been
called the ‘most influential artist
in history’.

The two much-requested
encores are I, Claude Monet
and Rembrandt – both
beautiful and moving cinema
films.

This year we went on our first
screening tour of Ireland. I had such
a wonderful time meeting the Irish
audience I can’t wait to return next year
for more fantastic EXHIBITION ON SCREEN
events.

Executive Producer & Director

                          Cinema-goers will embark on an immersive journey into the
                          life and art of Venice’s famous view-painter. Guided by Royal
                          Collection Trust curators and the world’s leading experts in
                          Venetian history, the film is not only a wonderful way to see
                          the exhibition, but an opportunity to get closer to Canaletto
                          and the city that inspired him.
