Marc Ribot's Ceramic Dog--Your Turn (Northern Spy--2013). Ho atteso questo disco a lungo. Costruito perfettamente cattura l'energia e la temerarietà della band.

Read "Principato di Monaco: i trent'anni del Festival Printemps des Arts" reviewed by Libero Farnè

by Libero Farnè

Una grafica d'impronta pop-postmodern caratterizzava la copertina del catalogo del Festival Printemps des Arts: un logo dalla comunicativa perentoria e la sfrontata aggressività di colori contrastanti costituivano un'efficace traduzione visiva della sua filosofia. Nell'edizione del trentennale il direttore artistico Marc Monnet ha dato vita a un festival curioso e tentacolare, sempre alla caccia di nuove collaborazioni ...
