    Quay Brothers

    Identical twins Stephen and Timothy QUAY (1947, USA) were respectively educated in film and illustration at the art academy in Philadelphia and the Royal College of Art in London. Since the 1970s, they've been building on a dark, enigmatic oeuvre encompassing stop-motion films, but which also includes drawings, set designs and diorama boxes. Reflected in all these works is the brothers' fascination for 20th-century Central and Eastern European culture.
