The appointment of the Indonesian art collective Ruangrupa
as directors of Documenta 15 was a shock to the art
world. No cult of personality on this edition of the
Kassel art show, but a collective view on the (art) world
now and tomorrow. A sign to the rest of us that the future
will be collective or will be not? It was not easy to find
any comprehensible information on Ruangrupa but this small
docu of German tv channel 3sat sheds a little light.
Long time member of Spyro Gyra Dave Samuels passed away.
Despite busy touring shedules with the band Samuels also
maintained a solo career and was a sought-after studio
musician.
A great loss to the music world. Too soon indeed. Roy
Hargrove will be remembered as the new young kid at the
beginning of the nineties. Close on the heels of Wynton
Marsalis to become the next trumpet god.
So sad to hear about the passing of Randy Weston. While
his originality always stood without question, I was
always struck by the visible joy on his face whenever he
performed live.
