PERSISTENCE IS ALL-(Monographie sélective Pierre Beloüin~96 p. ill. en coul., 12 x 18cm)IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Persistence is all, première exposition personnelle de l’artiste, est elle aussi placée sous le signe de la référence, plus précisément à Coil, groupe de musique industrielle anglais : sa courte phrase de titre est en effet tirée d’un néon (une sculpture ?) disposé dans le salon de Threshold house, la maison du groupe qu’on peut apercevoir dans un documentaire anglais de 2001, « Hello Culture ». Et c’est aussi le titre d’un live du groupe, en 2000. « Persistence is all », sentence à la fois définitive et mystérieuse, ne signifie peut-être rien d’autre que la nécessité d’être tenace et exigeant, ou plus directement encore, de résister au suicide programmé des objets dans la culture commerciale. Multi-plateforme, plasticien, chef de label, curateur, Pierre Beloüin joue sur tous les fronts de la résistance underground. The exhibition is precisely marked under the symbol of Coil: its short title taken from a neon sign (a sculpture ?) situated in the living room of Threshold house, the home of the group, which we can be seen in the English documentary, Hello Culture (2001). It is also the title of a live by Coil (2000). "Persistence Is All", a phrase which is at the same time precise and mysterious, it might not mean anything more than the need to be tenacious and demanding, or still more directly, to resist the planned suicide of objects in commercial culture.

The Whirling Dervish : Our first review!

http://www.unsignedthemagazine.com/brandnew/theheat.html

Caveat Emptor -The Whirling Dervish

By: Corbyn Bricie

Can't describe this one. And that's a sure sign of dopeness. I don't know what it is or how they do it but The Whirling Dervish have converted me to their brand of rock, er emo, er um punk....geeze I don't know. Definitely socially driven in their song making the drums and guitars fuse together in a wall of song that comes at you in a hectic, aggressive and harmonious barrage of sounds that ebbs and swells in all the unexpected places that make that make their music hard to define but for sure easy to fall for. All of this is punctuated by earnest vocals that exude an intangible energy.

Ricardo Mbarkho: EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL - OSNABRUECK – GERMANY

"Beirut and Media Art todayPresentation by Ricardo Mbarkho
In his lecture, Ricardo Mbarkho talks about today's media art scene in Beirut. He also shows a selection of videos where many approaches are tackled to question the identity crisis in today's Lebanese socio-political and cultural sphere. The war on Lebanon since 1975 remains a major concern for the multicultural Lebanese society. Today, Lebanon is witnessing one of its tensest political divisions, and failed to elect a president able to bridge the gap between the current government and the opposition. The impact between the Middle East conflict, the media system and art is raised by Mbarkho from the geographical and the historical angles."

" Beyrouth et l'art des médias aujourd'hui Présentation par Ricardo Mbarkho
Dans sa conférence, Ricardo Mbarkho parle de la scène de l'art utilisant les médias aujourd'hui à Beyrouth. Il montre aussi une sélection de vidéos où plusieurs approches d'artistes questionnent la crise de l'identité dans le Liban aujourd'hui. La guerre sur le Liban depuis 1975 restes une inquiétude majeure pour la société multiculturelle libanaise. Aujourd'hui, le Liban témoigne une de ses divisions politiques les plus tendues, et a manqué de choisir un président capable de remplir le vide entre les progouvernementaux et l'opposition. L'impact entre le conflit au Moyen-Orient, le système médiatique et l'art est soulevé par Mbarkho des angles géographique et historiques. "

William Burroughs Master Musicians Of Joujouka Brion Gysin Hans Christian Andersen Opening

Today the show of Cut Up works by William Seward Burroughs and Hans Christian Anderson opened in Dublin, Ireland. One of the exhibits is the Brion Gysin and Ian Sommerville "Dreamachine" courtesy of the The Musée d' Art moderne de la Ville de Paris.

The soundtrack for this experience is the Master Musicians of Joujouka's 1995 release Joujoujka Black Eyes. This Dreamachine is one of nine created by Gysin and Sommerville.

The Master Musicians of Joujouka are proud to be associated with this exibition.

Cut-Outs and Cut-Ups: Hans Christian Andersen and William Seward Burroughs

Writers' Less Famous Works in PaperThe Irish Museum of Modern Art is delighted to announce the opening of the new exhibition Cut-Outs and Cut-Ups: Hans Christian Andersen and William Seward Burroughs, in the New Galleries on Wednesday April 9th.
This exhibition is the first to compare these legendary writers and fascinating, but little-known, visual artists. Hailing from different origins and different periods, Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) and William Seward Burroughs (1914-1997) nevertheless shared many significant connections. Both were highly productive and revolutionary writers, intrepid travellers and larger-than-life personalities who developed important collaborative relationships. Key to the 124 works in this exhibition is the artists' mutual engagement with cutting-out pictures and stencils which involve silhouettes and shadows. Their use of brilliant colours and metallic surfaces relate closely to their writings.
The Andersen material consists of a wide range of drawings, cut-outs and picture books containing his original collages. The Burroughs artworks include paintings on paper and wood, and collaborative projects with lifelong friend, artist Brion Gysin, including their legendary Dreamachine. The exhibition continues until June 29th.

Jonathan Leyser : Footage/Photos

Hello friends,

Thanks for your help with the feature-length film "William S. Burroughs: A Man Within." We have wonderful interviews with almost everyone involved in his life. As production nears completion, I am now searching out media to include in the film. I am looking for photographs, audio and video/film footage of William S. Burroughs. If you or someone you know has anything that you could generously let me use in the film, it would be much appreciated.So many of you have helped out.
Thanks all,
See you at the premiere,

Jonathan
