Atom Egoyan
Atom Egoyan is one of Canada’s most celebrated arthouse
directors. Exotica which won the FIPRESCI Prize at Cannes’94,
was his international breakthrough film. The Sweet Hereafter,
his most critically acclaimed film, received two Academy
Award nominations. Ararat, about the Armenian genocide in
the Turkish Ottoman Empire, centred on child survivor Arshile
Gorky, went on to become the pioneer of American abstract
expressionism. Where the Truth Lies, Adoration and The
Captive, have all competed for the Palme d’Or in Cannes.
Egoyan has also directed theatre and opera, including an
adaptation of Samuel Beckett’s Eh Joe, winner of The Irish
Times/ESB Award for Best Direction. He has directed awardwinning
opera productions for the Canadian Opera Company
and the Lincoln Center Festival, New York. Egoyan’s art
installations have been presented at the Venice Biennale,
his work, Steenbeckett, commissioned by the UK’s Artangel,
is part of the permanent collection of the Tate. His films have
been presented in several retrospectives across the globe,
with complete career overviews in Paris, Madrid, New York and
Brussels. Egoyan was knighted by the French government and
is a Companion of the Order of Canada, the country’s highest
honour.
