Throughout music history
there have been countless talented bands from the New York scene. One
of the most extraordinary periods is the No Wave. Beginning in the late
70's, most people labeled this style as 'unlistenable'. Kill Your
Idols explores the No Wave, focusing on bands and musicians, old
and new, like DNA, Suicide, Foetus, Sonic Youth, Yeah Yeah Yeahs or
Liars, with their comments, thoughts and musical values..
1638, the year Louis XIV was born –his second name, Dieudonné, alluding to his God-given status– saw the diffusion of a cult of maternity encouraged by the very devout Anne of Austria, in thanks for the miracle by which she had given birth to an heir to the French throne. Simon François de Tours (1606-1671) painted the Queen in the guise of the Virgin Mary, and the young Louis XIV as the infant Jesus, in the allegorical portrait now in the Bishop’s Palace at Sens.
Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.
In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
