o.k. this is genius: “hitler in his bunker hopes that he will get the job as director of the MOCA, but is told by his senior staff that the job has gone instead to the new york dealer jeffrey deitch, known for his business dealings and embrace of spectacle. upset, hitler lashes out at MOCA’s board of trustees, deitch, some of deitch’s artists (or those he admires) and the man who saved MOCA philanthropist eli broad.” by cdc

Holly Miranda : Waves at Zebulon
i am always amazed and envious when someone can create such beautiful and transporting sounds with just their body (voice and instrument, sans electricity). leaving detroit and her family at the age of 16, holly miranda has been in new york for the past ten or so years and is finally deemed an ‘overnight success’. early into her move she was signed with BMG and recorded but vaulted the results and dropped the mega-label to be true to herself. good perspective, and amazing voice. please check out! by kl

la cinematheque de tanger
it’s already very rare to find a decent theater in the main cities, but if you happen to know what cinema means anywhere else, then, the “cinematheque de tanger” or “cinema rif” for the locals, is really a gem! so you will say, “yes but it’s tanger, the city of the beats, paul bowles, ysl and so on…” and I’ll say yes, but having a theater sponsored by agnes b, with collaterals designed by swiss designer claudia roethlisberger and such good films scheduled… well we don’t even have such a place here in nyc! by pp’
