All that is solid: the third Animate OPEN
Animate Projects and Quad are pleased to announce the launch of All that is solid: the third Animae OPEN at QUAD, Derby, from 24 January – 16 February 2025. There’ll be an online talk on 13 February.
The artists, selected from an international call, are:

The Animate OPEN sets out to celebrate, subvert and confound expectations of what animation can be, and includes films from Austria, Belgium, England, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Scotland, South Korea, the USA and Wales.
They explore subjects that range from intimate, personal stories to wider geopolitical events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the invasion of Ukraine, and the climate crisis. They consider the places we call home, and our need to connect with other humans, animals and nature. The diverse animation techniques represented include photo cut-out, Risograph, kitchen lithography, timelapse, charcoal, pinscreen, 3D, stop motion, and hand-drawn on paper.
The winner of the Animate OPEN jury prize of £1,000, will be announced in January. The jury members are: Lucia Cavalchini, producer and programmer in Mexico, American artist Martha Colburn, and Nobuaki Doi, curator and producer at New Deer in Japan.
