These French/Cuban twin beauties make up the group <a href="http://ibeyi.fr/" target="_blank">Ibeyi</a>. They sing in both English and Yoruba, a West African language that travelled to Cuba via slavery in the 1700s. The twins' father was the famed Cuban percussionist, Anga Díaz, who was a member of the Buena Vista Social Club. </div>

<div class="first">
"NOWHERE was created by<a href="http://dimitrispapaioannou.com/" target="_blank"> DIMITRIS PAPAIOANNOU</a> in 2009 to
inaugurate the renovated Main Stage of the Greek National Theatre in
Athens.</div>
This central scene is dedicated to the memory of PINA BAUSCH.<br />
NOWHERE explores the nature of the theatrical stage itself, a spatial
mechanism continually transformed and redefined by the human presence
to denote any place, and yet designed to be a non-place. 26 performers
measure and mark out the space using their bodies, pitting themselves
against its dimensions and technical capabilities in a site-specific
performance that can be presented nowhere else."</blockquote>

"The slender young people <a href="http://www.antonkerngallery.com/artist/brian-calvin/" target="_blank">Brian Calvin</a> paints
look as if they were lifted from a teenage cartoonist's sketchbook. They
have comically long faces, oversize heads, huge lips, stringy hair, big
eyes with reflections carefully noted, and vacant, vaguely depressed
expressions.</div>

<div itemprop="articleBody">
Because of the cartoon style
and the disaffected moods of his subjects, this Los Angeles-based artist
has been called a slacker. The label is wrong, though, because he pays
assiduous attention to the formal dimensions of his medium. The way he
flattens, simplifies and crops his figures and their Southern California
backgrounds and his use of richly saturated colors has earned him
comparison with Alex Katz and David Hockney. It does appear that he is
at once emulating and parodying those painters, and the effect is
amusing."<a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9E00E1D61639F934A2575AC0A9629C8B63" target="_blank">NYT</a></div>

"Not Vital<br />
Makaranta School<br />
Agadez, Niger<br />
<br />
Not Vital had been working in
Niger, building himself a home there (beginning his project to build a
home on every continent from which to watch the stars). The home/tower
he built there, at four stories tall was the tallest adobe structure in
the area. So as he spent time there, he wanted to give back to the
community. But 'the Tuaregs - the nomadic people of the region, were
very much against a school because they believed if children learned
to read and do mathematics, they would not be able to read the stars
anymore.' So a school house became reinvented as a staircase/pyramid
structure by Not Vital in which the students could continue to learn
outdoors, as their nomadic culture called for, but still have a
centralized place to encourage education." <a href="http://www.softpyramids.info/post/37093531636/not-vital-makaranta-school-agadez-niger-artists" target="_blank">SoftPyramid</a></blockquote>
