The Band’s Visit Front Page
Touring Company in San Francisco
By: - Jan 14th, 2022The biggest star of The Band's Visit is the music. Lyrics in the sung songs are witty and divulging, and the accompanying music is pleasant throughout, with eclectic influences from American pop to klezmer to bossanova. Some of the stylings are a little rough, which at first may suggest poor casting, but on further consideration, less than perfect renditions work well. After all, the characters represented are not singers, they are working class.

Tomm El-Saieh at Clark Art Institute Front Page
Year Long Exhibition
By: - Jan 12th, 2022El-Saieh (b. 1984, Port-au-Prince, Haiti; lives and works in Miami) creates paintings that dazzle with dense, all-over compositions of compact marks—achieved through painting, erasing, and abrading—often accompanied by atmospheric washes of bold color. His pictures test the limits of abstraction and perception with parts that resemble patterns, symbols, or even language, and a whole in which larger figures appear to coalesce, advance, or recede. Haitian vodou traditions inform his distinctive visual style, which also reflects influences from Abstract Expressionism and Surrealist automatism.
