Editor -Juliette Welfling EMILIA PÉREZ editor Juliette Welfling took on the job of editing her first musical without knowing the rigor and precision that would be required for the job.  For better or worse, neither did writer/director Jacques Audiard, himself new to the world of making a musical.  It turns out, experience might be overrated, as the Netflix Oscar-hopeful has won over critics since its premiere at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. Written and directed by Jacques Audiard, EMILIA PÉREZ is based on Audiard's opera libretto of the same name.  Audiard's opera was loosely adapted from Boris Razon's 2018 novel, Écoute.  The film stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz and Karla Sofía Gascón in the title role.  EMILIA PÉREZ tells the story of a feared cartel leader who enlists a lawyer to help her disappear and achieve her dream of transitioning into a woman. Its original songs were contributed by French singer Camille, while its original score was provided by her partner and collaborator, Clément Ducol. Juliette Welfling Juliette Welfling began her career at age eighteen as an intern on Jean-Charles Tachella's Cousin cousine. She later befriended Jacques Audiard while both were working as assistant editors, and she earned her first editor credit on his directorial debut See How They Fall. Welfling has received César nominations for each of Audiard's eight films, winning four times: for See How They Fall, The Beat That My Heart Skipped, A Prophet, and Rust and Bone. She received an additional César nomination for Asghar Farhadi's The Past, as well as a César win and Oscar nomination for Julian Schnabel's The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Welfling has also collaborated with other directors including Michel Gondry (The Science of Sleep) and Gary Ross (The Hunger Games, Ocean's Eight).

«Kulturplatz» vermittelt seit 20 Jahren Kultur und hilft gesellschaftliche Debatten zu verstehen. Mit Beat Schlatter und Sina spricht Eva Wannenmacher über die Kraft des Fernsehens. Zeigt Highlights und wirft einen Blick nach vorn: Wie wird der «Kulturplatz» der Zukunft aussehen. Ein rasanter Blick zurück Am Anfang war das weisse Studio, aus dem der «Kulturplatz» moderiert wurde. Zwischendurch kam Late-Night-Pabst Harald Schmidt für eine Mutterschaftsvertretung. Irgendwann ging die Sendung raus, in die Museen und Kulturorte der Schweiz. Eva Wannenmacher moderierte da auch schon mal hoch zu Ross. In 20 Jahren hat sich der «Kulturplatz» stets als Vermittler zwischen Kunst und Kultur verstanden. Nationale Kulturhelden wie Beat Schlatter, Sina oder Mike Müller waren zu Gast. Aber auch internationale Stars wie Tilda Swinton, Julian Schnabel, Jeff Walls oder Marina Abramovic. Talente wie Sophie Hunger, Faber und Hazel Brugger fanden hier zum ersten Mal mediale Aufmerksamkeit. Immer wieder lenkte die Sendung den Blick auf gesellschaftliche Debatten. Zum Jubiläum trifft Eva Wannenmacher heute im Zürcher Museum für Gestaltung Beat Schlatter und Sina und feiert mit ihnen Kultur, «Kulturplatz» und elektronischen Medien. Bewegte Momente der Mediengeschichte bei SRF In dieser Woche feiert SRF das 100-jährige Bestehen der elektronischen Medien in der Deutschschweiz. Vor 73 Jahren flimmerte das erste TV-Programm durch die Schweizer Stuben. Und auch der erste «Eurovision Song Contest» fand im Schweizer Fernsehen und in der Schweiz statt. Das Schätzchen der Schweizer Fernsehunterhaltung wurde Heidi Abel. Und die Alltagsromantik der TV-Serien «Motel» und «Fascht e Familie» sorgten früh für Identitätsgefühl. In den 1980er-Jahren sorgten die ersten Walkmans für «Aha-Erlebnisse», soviel Musik aus einem so kleinen Gerät. Momente, die im Fernsehen festgehalten und zu ikonischen Momenten wurden. «Kulturplatz» wirft einen Blick auf die Höhepunkte und kuriosen Augenblicke, die das SRF-Archiv zu einem kulturellen Fundus gemacht haben. «Kulturplatz» der Zukunft Wenn «Kulturplatz»-Moderator Nino Gadient in 20 Jahren die Sendung moderiert, können die Zuschauenden mit ihm virtuell im Studio sitzen und auf «Stopp» drücken, wenn mal eben schnell das Popcorn aus geht. Utopie oder realistisches Szenario? Tatsache ist, seit der «Kulturplatz» 2004 Premiere feierte, ist technologisch viel geschehen. Und in 20 Jahren wird noch viel mehr passieren. Wie könnte also ein «Kulturplatz» der Zukunft aussehen? VR-Brillen versprechen die totale Immersion, dank der KI kann jeder Nutzer sein eigenes Programm quasi für ihn ganz persönlich generieren lassen. Doch sind solche Szenarien, nur weil sie technologisch möglich sind, auch realistisch? Ein Zukunfts-«Kulturplatz».

Cette semaine, je rencontre Suzanne SYZ, créatrice de bijoux uniques. Suzanne est fascinée par l'intensité et la fragilité de l'unique. Sans doute parce qu'il a le goût de l'instant présent. Tout a commencé comme ça : elle ne trouvait pas sur le marché, les bijoux qui lui plaisaient, qui soient précieux sans être guindées, élégants sans être conventionnels, pétillants sans être inconfortables. Alors, avec la collaboration d'un atelier genevois, elle s'est mise à concevoir les siens. Sa vie dans le New York des années 80, à côtoyer Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeff Koons ou Julian Schnabel n'est sans doute pas étrangère à cette audace de créatrice. Mais au-delà du plaisir de créer des bijoux uniques, comment expliquer leur influence sur les personnes qui les portent ? Suzanne répond que le bijou est justement fait pour cela, pour faire vibrer ce qu'il y a d'unique, de joyeux et de beau chez celles et ceux qui les portent. Un beau bijou brille, mais il fait avant tout briller la personne qui le porte. On pourrait ajouter qu'inversement, c'est à la personne qui le porte d'apporter de l'éclat a un bijou qui n'en a pas. Comment créer de l'unique sans se répéter ? C'est la question de la semaine.

This week on Remainders we watch the 1996 biopic Basquiat, a glimpse into the short life of postmodernist and art-world icon Jean-Michel Basquiat. Directed by Julian Schnabel and starring a young Jeffrey Wright, Basquiat follows his rise to fame in 1980s New York City and the hotbed of creativity crossing paths with Andy Warhol and others. Containing one of the most notable and talented casts of any film from the decade, Basquiat is a portrait of an artist made from an artist – an ode to the act of creativity itself.Other topics include the Academy Awards, Godzilla winning its first Oscar, Oppenheimer, Ennio Morricone at the Music Box, social media and art, and what makes a good biopic.Songs of the WeekRaining In My Heart by Buddy Holly & the CricketsSeries of Dreams by Bob DylanRemainders Podcast Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

The author Ishmael Reed is known as a major force in literature and has been called one of the key thinkers of multiculturalism. Born in 1938, Reed arrived with a bang in 1972 with Mumbo Jumbo, a vibrant, hard-to-describe novel that blends real historical events with outrageous fantasy, about a plague of dancing that breaks out, spread by Black artists and musicians, and a shadowy international conspiracy to contain its disruptive power. Reed's storied career has included novels, essays, and polemics, as well as plays. And he has recently come out with a work for the stage that looks at how we tell the story of another giant of the late 20th century: Jean-Michel Basquiat. Basquiat is today among the most widely known painters, and his life story is almost as famous as his art itself. He burst into the spotlight in the early ‘80s, first as a savvy street artist and then with his vibrant style of painting. By 1985, he was on the cover of the New York Times Magazine, the symbol of the 1980s art boom. By the end of the decade, he was dead of an overdose of heroin, at the age of 27. Reed's play, titled The Slave Who Loved Caviar, is sharply critical of how Basquiat's story gets told as one of self-destruction instead of exploitation. It homes in on Basquiat's famous relationship with the edler Andy Warhol, which has been told and retold, in the painter Julian Schnabel's famous 1996 film Basquiat, as well as more recently Anthony McCarten's Broadway play, The Collaboration, soon to be a film, and in many other places. Like Mumbo Jumbo, The Slave Who Loved Caviar tackles the serious subject of how Black culture is treated in society, in a fantastic way. It features police investigators literarily reviewing the evidence that the white art world failed Basquiat. But it also has a Vampire aristocrat character, depicted as a present-day, Andy Warhol-like figure out to collaborate with a young Black artist, who goes by the name Young Blood. The play was performed in 2021 and 2022 at the Theater for the New City. It has just been published in a text by Archway Editions, with a forward and afterward where Reed responds to some of the criticism his take on Basquiat's story stirred up then. This week on the podcast, Reed joins Artnet's chief art critic Ben Davis to discuss his work.

Lou had been writing a book about this ancient martial art that was unfinished when he died in 2013. Lou's wife, the artist and musician Laurie Anderson, looked at Lou's unfinished work and decided the book needed to be completed, that there was something important to be shared in Lou's long, life-altering journey with tai chi. She turned to three of Lou's friends to help her with the project. By the time the book, The Art of the Straight Line: My Tai Chi by Lou Reed, hit the stands in the spring of 2023, they had spoken with nearly 100 people and created a riveting portrait of Lou's spiritual, medical and musical life, beckoning readers to enter the world of tai chi. The Kitchen Sisters read the book and we kept thinking, these conversations must have been taped. We asked Laurie if there were recordings. There were. Dozens and dozens of them from rock stars, to tai chi masters, to doctors, to family…. We listened to the raw interviews, this remarkable trove of sound and story, and created a podcast that goes deep inside the making of this book. Voices heard in the story include Laurie Anderson, Iggy Pop, Julian Schnabel, Hal Willner, Anohni, Master Ren and many more, plus archival recordings of Lou Reed.”

What makes films memorable and meaningful? Great cinematographers are not only translators of a director's vision but are involved in a dance between director and actor. When combined with personal techniques like handheld, the camera itself can become a character, bringing us back in time and behind the eyes of well-known figures like Van Gogh and Stephen Hawking, which is what Benoît Delhomme did in the films At Eternity's Gate and The Theory of Everything.Benoît Delhomme studied cinematography at the École nationale supérieure Louis-Lumière and went on to make his breakthrough as a director of photography for the movie The Scent of Green Papaya directed by Tran Anh Hung. The film went on to win the Caméra d'Or Award at the Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for an Academy Award. Benoît has established himself as an international cinematographer and has worked with creatives such as Al Pacino, Julian Schnabel, and James Marsh. Over the years, Benoît Delhomme has worked on a wide array of films where his focus has been to tell a strong story through the visual. This focus has shined not only through his work as a cinematographer, but also his work as a painter."I certainly like a handheld camera, It's a bit like playing a saxophone. It's like the pace of walking or how I stop or I decide to go closer to the actor or to take more distance is so free. No one is telling me to go one step forward or one step back. I have to decide on the spot. So there certainly a freedom like a painter with a brush. It's nice because you have even the vibrations, your rhythms, the actor's rhythms. It's this dance."www.benoitdelhomme.comwww.benoitdelhommestudio.comwww.instagram.com/benoitdelhommewww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

When combined with personal techniques like handheld, the camera itself can become a character, bringing us back in time and behind the eyes of well-known figures like Van Gogh and Stephen Hawking, which is what Benoît Delhomme did in the films At Eternity's Gate and The Theory of Everything.Benoît Delhomme studied cinematography at the École nationale supérieure Louis-Lumière and went on to make his breakthrough as a director of photography for the movie The Scent of Green Papaya directed by Tran Anh Hung. The film went on to win the Caméra d'Or Award at the Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for an Academy Award. Benoît has established himself as an international cinematographer and has worked with creatives such as Al Pacino, Julian Schnabel, and James Marsh. Over the years, Benoît Delhomme has worked on a wide array of films where his focus has been to tell a strong story through the visual. This focus has shined not only through his work as a cinematographer, but also his work as a painter."If you want to do your art well, you need to have some pleasure. If talking is not a pleasure, it's horrible. And when filming on a set is a bad experience, it's one of the worst things in life. As a cinematographer, if you can't make what you do personal to you, there is no soul. You need to make it personal.I don't know if Julian Schnabel trusted me, and I had to prove myself. For example, he had another guy in mind. And for many weeks, he said to me, 'Maybe we should keep two cinematographers?' And one evening he said, 'I'm going to paint in my outdoor studio tonight if you want to come.' And, I went to see him painting and brought a small digital camera. And he had music on and was doing this incredible painting. I was kind of fascinated to be there. We didn't talk. He knew I was filming him. He didn't say anything. So I spent part of the night cutting my small documentary. And in the morning at breakfast, I put my computer on the breakfast table and showed it to him, and he was so focused and very moved by what he saw. And he said, 'Okay, you captured what I was doing. You've got the film.'"www.benoitdelhomme.comwww.benoitdelhommestudio.comwww.instagram.com/benoitdelhommewww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

We meet legendary artist Julian Schnabel to explore more than 40 years of painting. Since his first solo exhibition in 1976, Schnabel has been on a quest to express the inexpressible. Best known for his multidisciplinary practice that extends beyond painting to include sculpture and film. His use of preexisting materials not traditionally used in art making, varied painting surfaces and modes of construction were pivotal in the reemergence of painting in the United States. Resisting the turn to traditional conventions of painting and sculpture that characterized the 1980s, he began his series of Plate Paintings, representational works with sculptural surfaces produced by layering shards of found pottery with thick applications of pigment. Throughout his career, he has sustained his use of found materials and chance-based processes, transforming the conventions of painting and opening the door for a new generation of young artists.The works on display in Schnabel's upcoming show were made in concert with the preparation of his seventh feature film, In the Hand of Dante, an adaptation of Nick Tosches's novel of the same name. For Schnabel, filmmaking and painting exist in a continuum in which subject matter crosses between mediums, assuming myriad forms. This relationship resonates throughout the exhibition, where indecipherable narratives emerge from a process of imagery central both to Schnabel's film and to the paintings on view.Celebrated for his vast and experimental practice that extends into the realms of sculpture and filmmaking, the artist has always been a painter first and foremost. Since 1978, when he created the first plate painting, The Patients and the Doctors—a work which abandoned traditional canvas in favor of a surface composed of broken plates—his use of unconventional, found materials has led to the invention of entirely new modes of painting. Dispensing with traditional distinctions between abstraction and figuration, Schnabel's plate paintings, and his works on velvet, reinvigorated interest in painting as a medium for contemporary art. Moreover, in the early years of his practice, Schnabel decided to make paintings that incorporated the history and materiality of the medium itself, embracing a singular approach to both form and subject.With these new velvet paintings, Schnabel considers the ways that the material appears as subject matter throughout the history of art—particularly in the works of Titian, Goya, and other Old Masters—and its symbolic weight in the history of humanity itself. But rather than creating illusionistic depictions of velvet, the artist uses the material for the surfaces of his works, inventing a new, contemporary kind of history painting in the process.Among Schnabel's recent velvet works in the exhibition is the ten-panel Buñuel Awake (for Jean-Claude Carrière) or Bouquet of Mistakes (2022), a large-scale composition that evokes the grandeur of retablos, architecturally scaled paintings that loom behind the altars of Renaissance and Baroque churches across southern Europe. Also included in this body of new works is Gesù Deriso. Jesus Mocked (2023), which refers directly to an enigmatic Renaissance fresco by the Dominican monk Fra Angelico in the famous monastery of San Marco in Florence.Julian's new exhibition 'Bouquet of Mistakes' is now open and runs until October 28th 2023.Visit: pacegallery.com/exhibitions/julian-schnabel-new-york/Follow @JulianSchnabel and visit his official website: www.julianschnabel.comSpecial thanks to @PaceGallery.

Talk It Out Radio host Nancy Kahn interviews Stephan Berwick on: Why and How Does the Chinese Art of Tai Chi Heal and Build Wellness? Nancy Kahn interviews the famed Chinese style marital arts teacher and researcher, Stephan Berwick about how Tai Chi healed and transformed the late rock music icon, Lou Reed in an exclusive discussion about his work bringing Reed's dream book on Tai Chi, “The Art of The Straight Line. My Tai Chi” to fruition (and just published by Harper Collings), with Reed's wife, artist Laurie Anderson”. Lou Reed was a musician, singer, songwriter, poet, and founding member of the legendary rock band the Velvet Underground. He collaborated with many artists, from Andy Warhol and John Cale to Robert Wilson and Metallica. Reed had a groundbreaking solo career that spanned five decades until his death in 2013. Reed was also an accomplished martial artist whose practice began in the 1980s. He studied with Chen Tai Chi pioneer Master Ren GuangYi. This book is a comprehensive collection of Reed's writings on Tai Chi. It includes conversations with Reed's fellow musicians, artists, friends, and Tai Chi practitioners, including Julian Schnabel, A. M. Homes, Hal Willner, Mingyur Rinpoche, Eddie Stern, Tony Visconti, and Iggy Pop. “The Art of the Straight Line. My Tai Chi” features Reed's unpublished writings on the technique, practice, and purpose of martial arts, as well as essays, observations, and riffs on meditation and life. Stephan Berwick is a martial arts instructor, performer, and researcher, specializing in Chen Tai Chi and Chinese swordsmanship. As an original student of Master Ren, Berwick conducted primary research at Tai Chi's birthplace in Henan, China over two decades ago. From that research, Berwick published the first English language profiles of the emerging Chen village masters, and other works on traditional martial arts. Before devoting himself to Chen Tai Chi, Stephan was one of the two first Americans – with Asia's top action star, Donnie Yen – to train in Xian, China under its national martial arts champion, Zhao Changjun and his coach, Bai Wenxiang. With Yen, Berwick went on to perform in Hong Kong action films under the tutelage of the director, Yuen Woping, as one of the few Western martial artists to star in Chinese action films. Years later, he met and befriended Lou Reed in 2003 at a national martial arts event with Master Ren. The post Why and How Does the Chinese Art of Tai Chi Heal and Build Wellness? appeared first on KPFA.

David Soldier has achieved a rare distinction — not only is he an accomplished Columbia University neuroscientist with over 200 papers and publications, several research grants and numerous prestigious awards to his credit, he is an equally successful and prolific musician in almost every genre of music. His musical undertakings include his work with the Soldier String Quartet (since 1984), a punk chamber group which has recorded with Guided by Voices, Rick Ocasek (Frontman for The Cars), Elliott Sharp, Leroy Jenkins and frequent collaborator John Cale (Velvet Underground); The Kropotkins, comprising Lori Velvette, Velvet Underground Drummer Moe Tucker, Charles Burnham (James Blood Ulmer's Odyssey Band) and Jonathan Kane, the latter with whom David formed the versatile duo, Soldier Kane. Other prolific legends with whom David has collaborated include Bo Diddley, Pete Seeger, Richard Hell and Sonic Youth's Lee Ranaldo. He wrote two chamber operas with Kurt Vonnegut (The Soldier's Story and Ice-9 Ballads), with Vonnegut playing multiple characters in the works. Films David has arranged or scored include I Shot Andy Warhol (Jared Harris); Andy Warhol's Eat and Kiss; and Basquiat, directed by Julian Schnabel and starring Jeffrey Wright and Benicio del Toro. From an experimental side, he has collaborated with conceptual Russian artists Komar & Melamid; and formed the Thai Elephant Orchestra, a musical ensemble consisting of 14 elephants, which he assembled, coordinated and composed. In our conversation, we discuss David's unique discovery of music in Southern Illinois; working with the giants of music; creating music which transcends genre; the origins of rock and roll; and the power of simplicity in hip hop.Opening Credits: Independent Music Licensing Collective (IMLC) - New Lands; Closing Credits: Jack Adkins - Little Stinky

A child of the 1980s punk/new wave scene, her influences were people like Andy Warhol, Julian Schnabel and Francesco Clemente. So it follows that her first aspiration was to be an artist. But a few semesters at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago convinced Kania she didn't have the talent to make it as a painter. Fortunately, she had a side job as a bookseller.“I can tell you, almost to the day, when I decided to go into publishing,” Kania says. She could, it turns out, get it down to the month—August 1992. That was when Donna Tartt's The Secret History came out. Kania was enthralled not only with the book but also with how it was marketed. “It was her. It was the story of her. It was Bennington. And it was the package.... When you're 21 and you're trying to figure out what your lot in life is, and you wake up and you're like, 'Oh shit, I can't paint,' you know, you panic. I decided I wanted to be a publisher. I didn't want to be anything else.”Although Kania admits she had only a vague idea of what a publisher actually did, she knew enough. She knew about Gary Fisketjon and was as enamored with writers—writers like Raymond Carver, Mark Lindquist and Jay McInerney—as she was with artists. So, with $1,200 and a one-way train ticket, Kania set out for Manhattan. “Bright lights, big city,” she quips. “You know, the whole bit.”Despite a bumpy start in the Big Apple—she was working for a computer programmer, sharing a studio with a drag queen—Kania got a lucky break when she met Michael Morrison at a friend's wedding. “I begged him for a job,” she recounts. “He hired me as his assistant in 1995, and I've been working with him ever since.”Kania's passion for her literary (and visual) idols has served her well professionally. She managed to turn Harper Perennial into a recognizable brand, in part by publishing the kind of literary fiction and nonfiction that turned her on to the business 16 years ago.And while some scoff at the notion that readers notice what's on a book's spine, Kania vehemently disagrees: “If people watch a television show because it's on HBO, if they see a movie because it's a Focus Features release, if they buy an album because it's on Sub Pop Records, then why doesn't the same go for books?”

Shot with a painter's eye, Schnabel once again shows his talent for working with complex biography and the lives of artists as in The Diving Bell and the Butterfly and Basquiat. And, earning him an Oscar nomination, Willem Dafoe is mesmerising as Vincent van Gogh.We talk to journalist and van Gogh expert, Martin Bailey, who teaches us the correct pronunciation of “Gogh”, debunks some van Gogh conspiracy theories, and reminds us just how significant and relevance Vincent's work was and remains today.Next we discuss the nostalgic delights of Tim Burton's reimagined Disney classic, Dumbo.

Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell) is hired by Max Medici (Danny DeVito) to work in his circus, charged with tending to the newborn elephant with outsize ears. Holt's children are the first to discover that Dumbo can take to the air, but will he be able to escape the cynical clutches of V.A.

Matthew Herbert discusses his intentions for the work, recording in Europe, and why he changed the name from The Brexit Big Band to The Great Britain and Gibraltar European Union Membership Referendum Big Band.
