andré mandou pra gente (ou “o maior de todos”)…
Assunto: Se foi o maior de todos“Salve, MauVal,2016, não satisfeito em sapecar Bowie, nos devolver ares de 1964, meter na “capital do mundo” um palhaço conservador e nos entregar um prefeito que tem a pachorra de fazer parte do clube dos atuais donos do Rainbow Theatre, agora nos leva ele, o maior de todos. Sim, digo isso sem medo de ser hiperbólico quando me refiro aquele senhor canadense cuja obra chegou aos meus ouvidos há mais ou menos 20 anos e se tornou parte de mim. Leonard Cohen, talvez o único artista até há pouco vivo que me fazia lamentar profundamente nunca ter visto ao vivo, subiu a serra.Fica aqui meu pedido encarecido para o #206. Poderia sugerir qualquer canção dele. No entanto, deixo apenas esse videozinho animado que fiz em 2001 em cima de de “one of us cannot be wrong”, quando engatinhava na minha vida como animador. O videoclipe é bem tosquinho, mas qualquer homenagem agora é válida.Forte abraço,”André
crass & arte…
On the next installment of The Art of Punk, we tear into the art of Crass. From the assaulting black and white photo-realistic paintings of protest, anarchy, and social satire, to their legendary adopted brand and two headed snake and cross symbol. We head up to the Anarchist Book Fair in San Francisco to meet up with Gee Vaucher, and founding Crass member, writer, and activist, Penny Rimbaud. We discuss the art and the lifestyle stemming from the infamous Dial House, where they have lived, worked, and crated their own brand of anarchistic beauty, for more than 3 decades. We have a sit down with artist Scott Campbell, at his own New York tattoo shop, and talk about how the art of Crass, and one single t-shirt created a fork in his own road of life. Owen Thornton talks some shit. Finally we hang out with British graphic designer Dave King – the creator of the infamous snake and cross symbol, and discuss post war England, hippies, punk, graphic design, and more, that led him to the creation of the symbol made legend by Crass.
Created, directed, and Executive Produced by writer/author of ‘Fucked Up + Photocopied’, Bryan Ray Turcotte (Kill Your Idols), and Bo Bushnell (The Western Empire), The Art Of Punk traces the roots of the punk movement and the artists behind the iconic logos of punk bands such as: Black Flag (Raymond Pettibon), The Dead Kennedys (Winston Smith), and Crass (Dave King).
In addition to profiling the artists, the series includes intimate interviews with former band members, notable artists, and celebrities who have been heavily influenced by the art of punk rock including Jello Biafra, Tim Biskup, Scott Campbell, Chuck Dukowski, Flea, Steve Olson, Penny Rimbaud, Henry Rollins, Owen Thornton, and Gee Vaucher.
The filmmakers Bryan Ray Turcotte and Bo Bushnell take a unique approach to exploring the rich histories of these three seminal punk legends by focusing on the influential imagery and seeking out stories that have not been told yet through the artwork, which is integral to the importance and influence of each band.
