In 1970s England, troubled musician Ian Curtis (Sam Riley) rises to fame as lead singer of the band Joy Division. A husband and father, Curtis begins to feel the strain of his band’s growing success, as his marriage to wife Deborah (Samantha Morton) crumbles and his epilepsy gets worse. Nominated for two BAFTAs and hailed at Cannes, Anton Corbijn’s Control is a gripping biopic beautifully shot in crisp monochrome.

Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.
The man is depicted in three-quarters view, turning straight to the viewers with a penetrating glance. The background is grey, while the clothes, the hair, and cap are black.
