Testemunhar o tempo: Flor Garduño no CPF

A arte da mexicana Flor Garduño regressa a Portugal. Witnesses of Time chega ao Porto amanhã, e permanece no Centro Português de Fotografia até 16 Março. Olhar e fixar um tempo que não é nosso, instantes e eternidades de vivencias de comunidades nativas de uma América que nos está distante, que não nos chega nos flashes televisivos, são os segredos que Flor nos poderá sussurrar.


O preto e branco nos jogos de luz e sombra, captando pessoas e os seus ritos em lugares sagrados, objectos e animais, a Vida e o Tempo testemunhados em diferentes momentos e lugares da América Latina, num trabalho "aclamado pela crítica e pela comunidade artística e exibido em mais de 40 museus, incluindo o Instituto de Artes de Chicago, o Centro de Fotografia Criativa de Tucson, os Museus de Finas Artes da Cidade do México, Buenos Aires (Argentina) e Santiago (Chile), o Museu de l’Elysee de Lausanne e a Universidade de Salamanca."


Musico en el Nada, Flor Garduño, Bolivia, 1990

The Clockworks, Mayday Mayday

Mayday Mayday, the latest from The Clockworks, a four-piece Irish post-punk band from Galway, Ireland, now based in London. Formed in 2019, the band consists of James McGregor (vocals and guitar), Sean Connelly (guitar), Damian Greaney (drums), and Tom Freeman (bass).  One of the most exciting new bands in the post-punk scene, a blend of indie rock and garage rock, with driving guitars and catchy melodies, currently working on their debut album. The Clockworks are a young band with a lot of potential, helping to bring Irish rock back to the forefront. Stay tuned!   

Iain McKell, "New Gypsies"

"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans."

New Order - Video 5-8-6 [Extended 22:23 version]

“Video 5 8 6” is a song originally composed as “pap” (as Tony Wilson put it) for the opening night of the Haçienda on May 21, 1982. Parts of this pearl would become the basis for the Power, Corruption & Lies tracks “5 8 6” and “Ultraviolence”, as well as the associated 12-inch single “Blue Monday”.
