Hardly the "end" for Greenaway...

2008 is not all that long ago. Film is one only one of Greenaway's mediums, not necessarily his main interest.

He does other things - operas, multi-media installations, paintings, film shorts, books etc. He's not a conventional filmmaker.

Greenaway has the second film in his "Dutch masters series" filming now in the Netherlands. This one is about artist/engraver Hendrik Goltzius, an important figure in Dutch/Flemish art and quite the fascinating character in his own right. Goltzius as a supreme example of Dutch mannerism - with his love for artifice, eroticsm and drama - should dovetail nicely with Greenaway's own obsessions.

A feature film about Sergei Eisenstein's ill fated trip to the US and Mexico is in preproduction and scheduled for a 2012-13 shoot (but not holding my breath on that, as badly as I would like to see it happen soon).

We Greenaway fans have learned to be patient. This is actually a lot of film output for Mr. G.
