Je me souviens du miracle qu'avait été fin 2005 l'élection d'Ellen
Johnson-Sirleaf, cette femme de 73 ans, diplômée des universités de Boulder
(Colorado) et d'Harvard, ancienne banquière chez Citibank, et ancienne ministre des finances, comme présidente de la République du Libéria,
au terme d'une vraie campagne électorale, digne de ce nom, face à ce grand
champion que les Parisiens adorent, George Weah, qui jouissait pourtant d'un
quasi-statut de dieu-vivant dans son pays.<br />

Je me souviens d'avoir conseillé à
Nicolas Sarkozy, alors ministre de l'Intérieur, de la rencontrer à l'occasion
de sa visite à Paris en 2006. Je me souviens de son charisme tout en douceur qui avait agi sur nous pendant cette rencontre.
Il en fallait pour amener une alternance démocratique dans ce petit
pays d'Afrique, qu'une guerre atroce a ravagé pendant quatorze ans, causant la mort de 250 000 personnes, sous les régimes incroyablement brutaux de Samuel Doe (qui la fit emprisonner à deux reprises), puis de Charles Taylor, dont une des particularités était d'ailleurs d'avoir fait frire les oreilles de son prédécesseur et de les avoir mangées devant lui avant de l'assassiner.</div>

Le Libéria est la plus ancienne république d'Afrique sub-saharienne. Je me souviens d'être allé peu de temps après à Monrovia, la capitale, et d'avoir été frappé par les portraits anciens des premiers chefs de l'Etat au palais présidentiel. Tous venaient d'Amérique. Dès 1820, des esclaves noirs affranchis étaient en effet venus des Etats-Unis pour s'installer dans cette région, avec l'aide de l'American Colonization Society et le soutien du Président James Monroe. Ces colonisateurs noirs fondèrent en 1847 la république du Libéria dont la constitution prenait modèle sur la constitution américaine.<br />
<br>
<br>
Je me souviens aujourd'hui avec fierté qu'Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf fut le premier chef d'Etat du continent africain à être reçu à
l'Elysée par le président Sarkozy.</div>

Mais je recommande tout de même à ceux qui aiment Los Angeles d'aller voir <i>Drive</i>, le dernier film du réalisateur danois Nicolas Winding Refn, déjà auteur de <i>Bronson </i>(2009) . Dans ce "psycho-thriller", prix de la mise en scène à Cannes 2011, à la fois classique dans sa construction et étrange par la manière dont il décrit l'univers urbain de LA, le personnage principal joué par le toujours juste Ryan Gosling déambule dans la nuit angeleno, dans ses highways et ses ruelles, de Downtown à Echo Park, au volant de ces voitures-icones de l'Amérique que sont la Ford Mustang et la Chevrolet Impala, "la voiture la plus populaire de Californie".<br />

Los Angeles comme on aime la vivre, sur fond d'une musique electro dont on reconnait le style : dès le générique, le désormais classique "Nightcall" de Kavinsky (qui a joué au Festival Ooohla LA 2010), produit par Guy-Man de Homem-Christo, des Daft Punk, et mixé par SebastiAN, autre grand talent de l'électro française, récemment en concert à Los Angeles. Quant à la musique originale, elle a été composée par Cliff Martinez, ancien batteur des Red Hot Chili Peppers, dont le légendaire bassiste Flea a rejoint Tinariwen sur la scène du El Rey Theater lors du dernier festival OohlaLA (30 septembre 2011).<br />

Pour trois belles soirées au El Rey Theater, nous avons donc de nouveau eu un accès direct au meilleur de la musique française et francophone, grâce à mon vieil ami Sylvain Taillet, directeur du festival et par ailleurs directeur artistique du label Barclay depuis 15 ans. Après nous avoir amené à Los Angeles des artistes comme Sébastien Tellier, Cocoon, The Do, Soko, Gonzales, et les nouveaux fleurons de la scène électro française (Brodinski, The Shoes, Jamaica, et l'équipe du label Record Makers dont Turzi, Acid Washed et Kavinsky, Sylvain a réussi l'exploit de réunir des talents aussi différents que Hugh Coltman, Nouvelle Vague, dans une magnifique création scénographiée par Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, puis Hindi Zahra et sa belle voix berbère. Clou du festival, la performance de Tinariwen, ce groupe composé d'authentiques combattants touaregs, formés, ça ne s'invente pas, dans les camps d'entraînement libyens, et qui ont décidé de remplacer leur AK 47 par des guitares de fortune. Bien leur en a pris : leur musique, sorte de rock'n'blues du désert, est hypnotisante.</div>

Preuve du succès du festival, la salle du El Rey était pleine tous les oirs, d'un public de connaisseurs composé à plus de 80% de jeunes Américains. A noter notamment la présence dans la salle de plusieurs <i>music supervisors</i> (ces gens dont le métier est de trouver des musiques pour les publicités, les films et, de façon générale, tous les contenus audiovisuels), preuve du respect que les productions françaises commencent à susciter à Los Angeles, au-delà des carrières exemplaires de Daft Punk, Air, Justice, Phoenix (Grammy 2010 dans la catégorie <i>rock alternatif</i>) ou même David Guetta (Grammy 2010 dans la catégorie <i>meilleur remix</i>).</div>

Plus frappante encore, la participation de deux musiciens de TV on the radio au set de Tinariwen, et surtout de Flea, le légendaire bassiste des Red Hot Chili Peppers, certainement le groupe de Los Angeles le plus populaire depuis 30 ans, accompagné de Josh Klinghoffer, le nouveau guitariste.<br />

Amos Gitai, réalisateur franco-israélien de grande renommée, est actuellement à Los Angeles à l’occasion d’une rétrospective de certains de ses films.

Le public français ne la connaît pas, et pour cause : bien que franco-argentine, elle chante en espagnol.<br /><br />Et enfin, last but not least, Bob Sinclar, qui a enregistré son album reggae avec les légendaires Sly and Robbie. Sly Dunbar et Robbie Shakespeare avaient assuré la base rythmique sur les deux albums reggae de Serge Gainsbourg (<span style="font-style: italic;">La Marseillaise</span> et <span style="font-style: italic;">Mauvaises nouvelles des étoiles</span>) et ceux, par la suite, de Grace Jones. Nominé dans la catégorie "meilleur album reggae", "<span style="font-style: italic;">Made in Jamaica</span>" aurait selon moi mérité le Grammy. A vous de juger.<br /><br />A part ça, ce sont toujours des moments particuliers lorsque Bob Dylan ou Mick Jagger prennent la scène. Surtout aux Grammy's. Bravo à Muse, et bravo à Eminem et Dr DRE pour leur performances brillantes.<br /><br /><br /></div>David Martinonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17165805447235169322noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647848511112017639.post-63335680601349484682011-02-02T14:58:00.000-08:002011-02-02T14:58:04.974-08:00Decouvrez l' Association des Producteurs de Cinema:<iframe width="480" height="295" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-CVq_aeMg0A?fs=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>David Martinonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17165805447235169322noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647848511112017639.post-58939124009790422932011-02-02T14:42:00.000-08:002011-02-02T14:48:28.046-08:00Vive L'Amour opening party with Scopitones & Umbrellas of Cherbourg<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjTGlu5-bplBVQxc2Po3dydMKXdtV10kXUuMldADN6JJtKEPCd3mg30qnr9BBsP820VIC2P5HMLvKnqZzje4dvbDF_XGlCNUTOLS6jxlrQX6qtCmRF7LVQwHy1OklPUX2iiBbUIA8z6vA/s1600/161976_149436868443841_3055337_n.jpg"><img style="display:block;

More!<br /><br />"People only die of love in movies.” – Madame Emery, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg<br /></span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFFFF;"><br />Heartbreaking and lovely, drenching drab realities in a multi-colored shower of visual design, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is both a wondrous fantasy and a sadly realistic love tragedy -- a sublime contradiction. Director Jacques Demy takes a prosaic story about the thwarted and unfortunate love between a car mechanic and a shopgirl, constructed out of everyday utterances and depressingly believable life-changing decisions, and then sets it all to song; he takes the real locations of provincial Cherbourg, and literally repaints them to be as saturated as the film’s costumes and props. It is an amazingly confident formal coup that works to powerful emotional effect. The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is beautiful in more ways than can be counted: Michel Legrand’s justly famous music, Catherine Deneuve’s youthful angelic countenance, and a romance so poignant that, like all true love, it lingers long after its final luminous image. Join us on the Cinefamily backyard Spanish patio for drinks, snacks and dancing after the film, to celebrate the opening night of our February series "Vive L'Amour", featuring 7 French classics programmed around the theme of love!<br />Dir.

When the Ferus Gallery opened,</div><div>Venice was an affordable paradise for a community of artists, dealers, homeless,</div><div>rock stars and Beat poets.</div><div><br /></div><div> This is the place where key figures of the Southern</div><div>California art scene met to create their most experimental works. “I wouldn’t</div><div>live anywhere else” explains Larry Bell who returned to his original studio on</div><div>Pacific Avenue recently after years in Tao, New Mexico. </div><div><br /></div><div>Forty years after its pioneer time, Venice is now often seen as passé or cliché. It would have become gentrified, some kind of a touristic resort. It would have lost its soul.</div><div><br /></div><div>This exhibition intends to show how the town by the ocean still possesses, just</div><div>as it used to do, a rich and creative art community. Sometimes using new forms</div><div>of expressions (video, graffiti) a young generation of artists is emerging.</div><div><br /></div><div>They are creating a new vision while following the steps, more or less consciously,</div><div>of their great predecessors. How Venice artists have become over the years</div><div>an iconic community? What are the links between this past and that present?</div><div><br /></div><div>Inspired by Walter Benjamin’s historical method of “the tiger's leap into the past”</div><div>this show raises these questions. It features works from some of those who have</div><div>contributed to the birth of Venice as a “maverick” art scene (Larry Bell, Huguette</div><div>Caland, Laddie John Dill, Elsa Rady), emerging artists from the new generation</div><div>(N.Agyapong, James Mathers, Jules Muck, Ace Norton, Kim Schoenstadt, Emily</div><div>Smith, Samantha Thomas) and outsiders (Marc Valesella, Dominique Moody)</div><div>whose point of view reflects Venice’s image as a double-standard mirror.</div><div><br /></div><div>Plus special performance and guests to be announced.</div><div><br /></div><div>For more information, please contact Elsy Benitez:</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://ebenitez@hereiselsewhere.com/">ebenitez@hereiselsewhere.com</a></div><div>HiE @ B 231 Space, Pacific Design Center –</div><div>8687 Melrose Ave # G102- Blue Building, Second Floor, West Hollywood, CA</div><div>90069.</div><div> </div><div><a href="http://www.hereiselsewhere.com/">www.hereiselsewhere.com</a>;</div><div> </div><div>Special thanks to Heather Harmon.</div><div><br /></div><div>Directions to the Pacific Design Center</div><div><br /></div><div>Pacific Design Center is located on the northeast corner of San Vicente</div><div>Boulevard and Melrose Avenue in the heart of West Hollywood, one mile east of</div><div>Beverly Hills.</div><div><br /></div><div>Due to construction the San Vicente Boulevard parking is closed.</div><div>All access to the parking garage is now through the Melrose Avenue entrance</div><div>located between San Vicente Boulevard and Huntley Drive on the North side of</div><div>the street.</div><div><br /></div><div>Here is Elsewhere Gallery is located on the second floor of the blue</div><div>building (space B 231).</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://www.pacificdesigncenter.com/#/design-loves-art/%20Self">www.pacificdesigncenter.com/#/design-loves-art/ Self</a></div><div>and valet parking @ PDC.</div><div><br /></div><div>Complementary parking for press (310) 360 6404.</div><div><br /></div><div>Facebook:</div><div><a href="http://http://www.facebook.com/pages/West-Hollywood-CA/Here-is-Elsewhere-Gallery/%20168065319872954?v=wall&ref=ts">http://www.facebook.com/pages/West-Hollywood-CA/Here-is-Elsewhere-Gallery/</a></div><div><a href="http://http://www.facebook.com/pages/West-Hollywood-CA/Here-is-Elsewhere-Gallery/%20168065319872954?v=wall&ref=ts">168065319872954?v=wall&ref=ts</a></div><div><br /></div><div>Twitter:</div><div><a href="http://http://twitter.com/#!/hereiselsewhere">http://twitter.com/#!/hereiselsewhere</a></div><div><br /></div><div>Here is Elsewhere</div><div>Pacific Design Center</div><div>8687 Melrose Ave, Suite B231</div><div>Blue Building, Second Floor</div><div>West Hollywood, CA 90069</div><div><br /></div><div>Hours: Tue thru Fri 12 - 5PM</div><div>and select Saturdays</div><div><a href="http://info@hereiselsewhere.com/">info@hereiselsewhere.com</a></div>David Martinonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17165805447235169322noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647848511112017639.post-58952603917292900782010-11-09T12:24:00.000-08:002010-11-09T12:30:16.647-08:00Achetez vos places pour le Beaujolais Nouveau!<img style="float:right;
