Yes, it's been all go as usual.. and another long period of time has elapsed since last posting!
Sooooo.. there have now been three Up On The Roof events at CAV, each one being well attended and new work being platformed. The next one will be the first Thursday in January.
Christian Schink, the photographer and ARC resident left us Monday morning and last night Ana Cruz Blanco arrived, she is currently beside me eating pizza :-) Ana intends to study dance during her stay and generally get into Cairo life.
The novelist Sherry Jones and the classical composer Robert Spittal will arrive on 25th of this month for a stay of 12 days, you can read about them via their sites linked to the left of here. Sherry will be giving a talk and reading at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 28 at Al Kotob Khan bookstore.
Other than this I am soon to be running more new courses, more gigs with my fab band, will be working towards a performance of new monologues and plays, hosting salons, writing, eating, going on feluccas and kissing pandas..
About Me
- ArtHome
- ArtHome is the first step of ARC. *Please read All About ARC page for all info. The residency is also my home and intended as a heart centre for developing artistic work, providing a landing mat for those seeking to absorb Cairo and hear its many stories as well an opportunity to be linked in with the art scene. Downtown is bustling with creativity; artists and writers gather in the numerous coffee houses and bars and radical and exciting work can be found in the galleries and venues. The city is full of paradoxes of old and new, traditional and contemporary. ArtHome is a bohemian, vegan/vegetarian place accommodating up to 3 artists at any one time. I am interested to help create links between artists locally and internationally and with venues and centres. I am a writer and poet www.lindaclearypoetry.blogspot.com and I also work with film and audio to create performances and installations. It is intended that ARC will blossom into a larger venue; accommodating more artists at one time and providing larger workspace in-house. I look forward to sharing ARC with you.
