Quay Brothers



Stephen and Timothy Quay, twin brothers, are authors of film animated films and TV commercials. They directed two feature-length films and a lot of short animated films.Most famous "Street of Crocodiles"- adaptation of B. Schulz and "Institute Benjaminata"
The are working somewhere on edge of culture - against desire for being "pop"for almost thirty years.
Films of Quay brothers don't let themselves forget.Because their's images are simply moving photographs, classic animated films with using heartless dolls, puppets. The created theirs own world, in which everything is unique, with it;s own rules. Everything is dynamic, indescribable, broken, stretched, torn. Inspired by German expressionism, surrealism, and avant-garde.
