Unseen Art Scene (mirror)

Earlier in the year I saw this and was lifted up to the highest heights and today I was reminded again by my Congolese friend, Tukei Muhumuza who is a self-confessed, Professional Hooligan living in Kinsasha. I am sure you have all seen this video but everytime I see it I smile from ear to ear. Madison is what America should be looking at when they think about a better future. So much of our time is taken up with nonsense but this is a pure Star talking.

I want to look into this subject. One in which all are talking. Congo. The failure of Africa. This to me highlights the greatest success of Capitalism and Democracy. The Leaders and Warlords need our greed to play out their corruption and it is so easy to buy off the few and care less for the masses. 5.4 million people dead since 1998. 15 years and a population half the size of London has died. Who is to speak for the lesser beings of Africa? Save the Congolese. The Rights of Man. What I am trying to do here..and it may seem rather obvious but I want the world to see the black man as human. Not an animal or a slave but as an equal. With a family. With hopes and dreams. Just like you and me. Imagine for one second that these men where your Fathers, brothers, friends. Would you accept their lot in life? Would you be pleased for how they turned out? These are the people that will never know what it means to have a Thanks Giving. And the BBC cares so much about the workers in A

Arch provocateur … Dutch artist Renzo Martens. Photograph: Aled Llywelyn/Athena Pictures/Aled Llywelyn/Athena Source: The Guardian N ext month, Renzo Martens , along with his wife, son and baby daughter, are going to live in eastern Congo so he can continue his five-year plan to gentrify the jungle. The 41-year-old Dutch artist is trying to create an arts scene in one of the most impoverished parts of the world. It sounds like a sick joke. “It’s not,” Martens tells me when we meet in London. “I mean, it’s funny to call your programme a central African gentrification programme, but I’m basically putting a white cube in the forest to see what it does.” There’s a little more to it than that. Martens is artistic director of an outfit called the Institute for Human Activities , which has helped artists from Kinshasa, capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, establish a critical curriculum akin to a foundation arts course for plantation workers. The Congolese Plantation Wo

This is a great lecture. Fantastic stuff back in 1927 in Battersea, London. I am listening and reading about this to argue with Nigerian and Ugandan Christian extremists. "Please stand upon your own feet and be not afraid of it and conquer the world with intelligence."  To show that the freedom of the Continent lies in the denial of Jesus being the son of God. We all are the sons and daughters of Gods of our world. This is a wonderful storybook all must read. The Adventures Of The Black Girl In Her Search For God   Here is one of the greatest minds of our time. What I adore about this thinker is that he always speaks about Congo and the tradegy of their missionary here on earth. They are the Heart of Africa. He shares our love for this world.

He is known for portraits and nudes in a modern style characterized by elongation of faces and figures.

In 1827, under the reign of Charles X, the Louvre housed a maritime and ethnographic museum called the Musée Dauphin, where visitors could admire “exotic” pieces brought back by great explorers such as Cook and Lapérouse—objects regarded as mere “ ethnographic specimens ”. After Jules Ferry’s decision to separate “ the history o

Ok. I am going to come back to this again and again because this is quintessential about how we push our passions forward, collectively in Art. Let us avoid the World of Cunts and instead focus on the beauty of our planet, head on. Bruce Lee is a guide. He is a fabulous mentor and the greatest teacher the world has ever known about how our body works physically. This is so important as a philosophy as a way we now need to think in our enlightened world... Listen to this Modern Day Hero. The Gospel cannot be changed as it is set in stone. It is bound in books and even the letters are not allowed a day-out. The WORD is unheard. This is the amazing sound of Kela Kuti - Water has no enemy. This is a Poem I wrote in response to all of this: GO WITH THE FLOW Self expression doesn't come naturally to most so as Bruce Lee would say, "be more like water". To express one-self is never easy but let us try it out. Flow more like water and whatever medium you may choose, be it oil pai
