Earlier in the year I rewatched Peter Greenaway's Prospero's Books, and John Gielgud's call of "boatswain" inspired me. I actually saw the 24 books used in the film at an exhibition in Swansea's Glyn Vivian gallery in the 90s, and the story stuck with me all these years.
Lots of my favourite artists have made things in homage to Shakespeare. Peter Greenaway, Derek Jarman, Michael Nyman, Baz Luhrmann, Prokofiev, Cole Porter, Dylan Thomas.
My favourite of Shakespeare's plays are the most avantgarde, and have inspired the most avantgarde works - Peter Greenaway and Derek Jarman especially.
