Peter Greenaway (b. 1942), born in Newport, Wales, and based in Amsterdam and London, he is considered to be an avant-gardist who has made forays into mainstream cinema, Peter Greenaway's unique visual language reveals a strong influence from his training as a painter, as well as structural linguistics and philosophy. Openly critical of the Hollywood approach to filmmaking, he believes that cinema should offer much more beyond the confines of narrative. As a believer in the subversive power of the image, Greenaway expresses his critical reaction to our contemporary visual culture in different forms, ranging from paintings and films, to television, multimedia formats, opera, and, most recently, VJ-ing. His constant exploration of the cinematic medium has resulted in the creation of incredibly rich imagery, heavily influenced by Renaissance painting and architecture, that explores the limits of provocative eroticism, sexual pleasure, and death.

Stefano Bessoni (b.1965) born in Rome, is an Italian filmmaker, writer, illustrator, and stop-motion animator. His work is driven by a passion for entomology, anatomy, fairy tales, and the history of science. Bessoni draws inspiration from eerie suggestions that evoke the uncanny, delving into the concept of the wunderkammer. At the heart of Bessoni's creations lies the technique of stop-motion, the dark essence of animation. His artistry, often infused with gothic mystery and utilizing unconventional materials such as bones, rags, vintage toys, and attic finds, exudes a haunting allure.
