Michaël Borremans, CAV - Coimbra

O Centro de Artes Visuais de Coimbra (Encontros de Fotografia) exibe a partir de hoje obras do artista Belga Michaël Borremans (Geraardsbergen, 1963). Com formação de base em fotografia e design gráfico, Borremans desenvolve a partir da última década do século XX um trabalho de pintura minuciosa. Muitas vezes a partir de fotografias ou imagens antigas, os retratos de Borremans seduzem e intrigam. Suspendem-nos, como se fosse o próprio tempo a avançar.

"I attempt to create an atmosphere outside time, a space where time has been cancelled."

Four fairies, Óleo sobre tela, 2003

Desenho, pintura e video de Michaël Borremans, para ver no Pátio da Inquisição em Coimbra, CAV, até 8 de Junho.

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”.
