TREYVON MARTIN MARCH and PROTEST

     TREYVON MARTIN MARCH and PROTEST
     Dateline ; Sunday July 14th 2013 Los Angeles

     Hundreds of citizens of Los Angeles marched through the streets today in protest of the
     recent decision regarding Treyvon Martin. Holding banners, signs and walking in unison.
     The crowd was peacefully expressing their views about a decision they felt was wrong.

     A wide variety of people, all ages, all races gathered in the central portion of Los Angeles.
     BUREAU of Arts and Culture was on hand to document the groups concerns & action.
     So were a concerned group of law enforcement. Los Angeles has seen devastation in the
     past regarding decision such as this. We hope protests such as this will create a dialogue
   among communities throughout the United States and avoid the obvious divisions that can
     happen during interpretations of situations throughout the court systems. More on this as
     the reaction to this decision continues here in Los Angeles, the United states & the world.

BUREAU INTERVIEW Denny NIVENS : CLASSIC SURF BOARD SHAPER

THE BUREAU WEEKLY SUMMER INTERVIEW : Denny NIVENS : CLASSIC SURF BOARD SHAPER

http://www.bureauofartsandculture.com/DENNY-NIVENS.html

BUREAU : PICK OF THE WEEK / ROBIN MITCHELL at CRAIG KRULL on JULY 13th 4 - 6 PM

BUREAU : PICK OF THE WEEK / ROBIN MITCHELL at CRAIG KRULL on JULY 13th
4 - 6 PM

Robin Mitchell's exhibition of recent gouache paintings, entitled
Moment to Moment, continues a
line of visual thinking that has progressed through her previous three
exhibitions at Craig Krull
Gallery. In Code Paintings, her first exhibit with the gallery in 2007,
Mitchell composed intricate
arrangements of small marks and brushstrokes that were suggestive of
landscapes and architectural
cross sections. In her next two shows, working like a zoom lens, she
moved progressively deeper
into her compositions. The once tiny dots and dashes enlarged into more
developed shapes which,
according to Constance Mallinson, "recalled forms from Egyptian
hieroglyphics and stylized decorative
borders, Eastern Mandalas, early Modernist abstraction or popular 50's
design motifs." In Mitchell's
recent paintings, her brilliantly colored starbursts, orbs and linear
overlays suggest that she is moving
even deeper into what appear to be the molecular structures of her
imagery. Like Zeno's paradox,
one senses that Mitchell may continue to take a half step closer to her
subject in an infinite exploration
of form and color.

GREG MILLER at WILLIAM TURNER GALLERY July 20th 6 :30 - 8:30 PM

William Turner Gallery Bergamot Station Arts Center
2525 Michigan Avenue E-1, Santa Monica, CA 90404
Telephone: 310-453-0909, E-mail: rbrander@me.com

GREG MILLER:
LOVE AT FIRST SITE

July 20th September 7th, 2013
Opening Reception:
Saturday, July 20th, 6:30-8:30 pm

Santa Monica, CA The William
Turner Gallery is pleased to present Love at First Site, new paintings
by Greg Miller.
Drawing on the cultural and geographic influences of his California
roots, Greg Miller explores images of the
American urban and rural landscape of the mid-twentieth century. The
work grabs us nostalgically, rousing a
shared cultural memory, but also teaches something of their lingering
pull on contemporary perception.

Greg Miller's work is featured in numerous museum and private
collections, including those of the Frederick R.
Weisman Foundation and Charles Saatchi Foundation. The Get Go, a volume
of his writings, photography
and paintings, was published in 2010, and the first comprehensive
monograph on the artist, Signs of the Nearly
Actual, was published in 2008. Miller spends his time between New York,
NY, Austin, TX and Los Angeles, CA.

BUREAU OF ARTS AND CULTURE : Michael Tilson Thomas and The San Francisco Symphony

Michael Tilson Thomas and The San Francisco Symphony

If Leonard Bernstein was a heavy, Zuben Mehta was passionate,
Dudamel excitable, than Michael Tilson Thomas might be considered
rather light hearted. Light as a feather. His conducting style is easy,
calm with a bit of a sway rather than a swing, a punch or a wield.
Reminiscent of say, the Mayor of Whoville from a Dr Seuss film.
He slides to the left and right, hints at direction and rides the wave
of music with an easy to and fro. Where Leonard Bernstein throttled,
cajoled and exclaimed, Thomas, suggests, points and intimates.
It is a light hearted style, he trusts his collaborators and indeed,
one gets the sense that that too trust him. The BUREAU of Arts
and Culture recently visited the Bay Area and caught an unveiling
of a new composition by John Adams as well as The 4th Symphony
by Beethoven. The Adams piece was riveting, entitled, " Absolute
Jest " and inspired by Ludwig Van, co - commissioned by The San
Francisco Symphony and featuring a string quartet.

We thought it was a fabulous performance, although, it might
have been not so anti-climactic if the Beethoven work had been
performed first and the Adams piece, following suit. After the
excitement of the Adams work, the 4th seemed a bit tired and
even stepped on. Figuring that the work was actually created
from Beethoven, or ' inspired by… ' we were left wanting a bit
more at the end of the evening.

The San Francisco Symphony is well supported by a group of
extremely wealthy and some what conservative supporters.
Not unlike most classical music and other institutes of this
variety, they depend on the support of companies like Chevron,
Bank Of America, AT&T, VISA, Emirates as well as individual
donors. I sometimes wonder what classical music would be like
if we put it in the hands of say, the homeless, the dock workers,
the truck drivers, the bus boys & waitresses or just the everyday
kids on bicycles, skateboards, and people at the bus stops.

Why does classical music have to have that air of superiority ?
When Leonard Bernstein created West Side Story which is now
being celebrated by Thomas & the San Francisco Symphony,
he meant to break down that snooty style and bring classical music
back to the streets. we hope Thomas and his cohorts as well as
our own Los Angeles Symphony and the sometimes uptight
classical Disc jockeys here in Los Angeles, remember that
this music was built to shake things up. Not the opposite.

We sometimes get the sense that classical music is some thing
that is for the wealthy, the conservative, the establishment.
Sorry folks, just like most of the great Shakespeare plays, this
is, was and will always be for the people. In many cases it was
meant to enliven passions, not suppress them. So, heres a note
to D.J.'s such as Dennis Bartel at KUSC, loosen up pop, this is
the modern age, don't forget who's listening, we are pal, and
were the people. By the way, where are the female conductors?
Where are the female disc Jockey's at KUSC ? Why are they
relegated to late night and week ends ? We think KUSC Radio
needs some feminine voices during the weekdays. Enough of this
all male commentary by guys like Dennis Bartel & Brian Lawrenson,
who provide a daily, child - like and somewhat elitist narration.

We applaud the instrumentalists, the composers, the supporters.
We applaud the new as well as the old, though, we we abhor the
tired old view that anyone group owns classical music, rock and
roll music, jazz music and even punk rock music. Music belongs
to the people. Lets keep it that way. Beethoven, Stravinsky,
Rokmonanoff were passionate people who broke the rules of
society and shared what their experiences were through original
compositions that to this day, excite, enthrall and entertain.
The only way were going to get the next generation into this
music without wringing them out to dry is to let the passion flow.

So look out all you bores, squares and wanna-be's. Classical
music is not about a tuxedo, a bank account, a foundation,
classical music is about life, love, passion, danger, death, loss,
war, peace, nature, the planets, and the universe as well as god
and even the idea of no god at all. Music is music is music is music.

WHY JIM HARRISON IS NOT DEAD

Tap Image to Read The Article Honoring The "LEGENDS OF THE FALL" Writer and Poet: Jim Harrison came from a family that adored and revered Literature: "My Family were obsessive readers…" The famous story goes, that, at a dinner table discussion, his family were talking about Norman Mailer's first success on the world stage and his book, entitled, " The Naked and The Dead, " young Jim responded to the conversation with the quick and curious question, "Does it have Illustrations ?" Laughter ensued and the beginning of his particularly curious, yet grounded, stoic, although humorous, celebratory whilst at the same time cautionary literary style is born.

THE IRVINE WELSH INTERVIEW

Author of TRAIN-SPOTTING on Writing, Politics + More/ Photo Essay By Walter ROTHWELL: "One of the things that happens with success is that you need to balance being a writer with an author. Writers write, while authors promote and talk about their work. So you learn that you have two jobs, which generally compliment each other, but can often get in each others way. This confusion is compounded by me working in film and TV; you need to think differently on screenplay as you are an architect rather than a builder, and once a work goes into production, you (appropriately) fall quite far down the food chain. So I now wear different hats, which I usually like –life gets boring doing the same thing."

The Nathan Walsh Interview

Tap to Read The New York Based BUREAU Guest Artist discussing his work, technique and the future of Realism in ART with Bureau Editor Joshua TRILIEGI: "I started collecting art related books as a student. This has served as daily form a of inspiration and guidance for my own practice. Looking at significant artists and paintings of the past can often be intimidating but can also suggest ways forward. My inspirations are numerous and varied from Piranesi’s engravings to the decorative tiles of William De Morgan. What connects all of these interests is a strong sense of structure and pattern. Most of the artists and designers I admire had or have a rigorous approach to composition and commitment to process perhaps more than outcome. I often think my own work as “sampling” these inspiring figures, whether it be the palette of Bonnard or the dynamism of a Bernice Abbott photograph. " - NATHAN WALSH

The ALEX HARRIS Interview

Tap To READ Alex HARRIS : "When I had the idea to photograph the landscape of northern New Mexico through the interiors of the cars of people who lived there, I’d been living in northern New Mexico on and off for almost 15 years and working in color there for about five years with a view camera. I saw myself as making the portrait of this region without including any actual people in the pictures. So I photographed extensively inside homes, whose decoration was primarily the domain of women, and the outsides of homes and in the fields, which was primarily the domain of men. In photographing these spaces, in a sense I was portraying the people who had created or shaped those spaces over the years. I wanted to represent the younger generation, and the spaces they controlled and decorated were the interiors of their cars."

TAP TO READ The John STEINBECK ICON Essay By J.A. TRILIEGI : "Question : What is it, that makes a good writer ? There are over a million answers to that question, simply ask a million writers. Each have their own rules, codes and exercises. John Updike adhered to writing three pages a day, before lunch. Charles Bukowski enjoyed a nice bottle of wine and the peaceful patter of classical music, deep into the night. According to John Steinbeck, in his Nobel Prize winning speech, there are many things a writer cannot think, be or do, to be considered, one of the gang. 1-You may not be Exclusive. 2-You may not be Separate. 3-You may not lack passion..."

ROBERT FRANK: THE AMERICANS

An APPRECIATION PIECE by Joshua TRILIEGI: "Photographers around the world revere Robert Frank's contributions to the image pool. Museums of the National and International variety create anthologies, catalogues and booklets attempting to put into perspective the precise importance of Mr. Frank's work. Art galleries and private dealers invest tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in reproducing and reselling the Robert Frank catalogue to new collectors at higher and higher prices each year. Robert Frank's photographs have become iconic, the images are American to the core and yet, he was an outsider, a beatnik, an immigrant, a visual poet... " TAP IMAGE TO READ ARTICLE NOW

REDFORD'S QUIZ SHOW at 20

Tap to READ BUREAU FILM : "This is a large film, with a brilliant cast, a flawless tone and leading actors that include John Turturro as the whistle-blowing contestant Herb Stempel and Ralph Fiennes as Charlie Van Doren, a wealthy second generation Columbia University teacher who gets sucked into cheating himself, the public and his families reputation simply by allowing the network's television producers of The Quiz Show entitled, "21" to, "… give him the answers." Which are said to be, "… sealed in a bank vault." Enter investigating lawyer and Harvard graduate at the top of his class, Richard Goodwin, played here brilliantly by Rob Morrow. A former clerk for Supreme Court Justice Frankfurter, who is on the legislative subcommittee for oversight..."

ON THE FILM SET : Raging BULL

Tap To READ J. A. TRILIEGI ON THE SET: A Man in a hooded, leopard skin robe walks down a long hallway while a group of men push aside those standing in his path. We hear a crowd of thousands cheer the man on, "Jake Jake Jake …" they begin to chant. He is wearing boxing gloves, this is a championship fight, the crowd is dressed in their finest, the men are wearing suits and hats, the women are wearing jewelry, the place is filled with cigar and cigarette smoke, sailors, businessmen, middle aged characters scream the man's name over and over, the women smile as he passes by, his trainers walk in front of and behind the man as he walks down the pathway toward the ring, the volume of the crowd amplifies as the man gets closer and closer to the large roped off square canvas at the center of the arena. The man in the leopard skin robe enters through the ropes, a nondescript fellow with a microphone introduces the man in the robe, the crowd goes wild with frenzy, people are shouting, clapping, everyone is yelling something and then, suddenly, a quiet gent behind a camera yells, "cut" and the place goes silent, the action ceases, everyone settles and a pensive discussion between the crew behind the camera ensues.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN: ICON ESSAY

Tap To READ: Bruce Springsteen tells stories. He knits a good yarn. He knows how to handle the crowd. Like most artists, he was a few steps ahead of the audience. Looking back to his debut album, entitled, "Greetings from Asbury Park," it is now clear that, Bruce Springsteen is not just a great singer, performer and musician, Mr. Springsteen is that rare and individual voice, both on the stage and more importantly: on paper. He is a poet. When the world was still reeling from Vietnam, from the end of The Beatles, from the shadow of Richard Nixon and the slow, but steady death of the once powerful 1960s cultural revolution, this artist released an album that was miles and miles, ahead of his audience.

GEORGIA O'KEEFFE ICON

Tap To READ The BUREAU ICON ESSAY: Georgia O'Keeffe, as a person, was precocious, defiant, intelligent, unwavering and spirited. Throughout her education and early years as a painter, she produced an original abstractionist style that had preceded a group of New York painters of the male variety that has, to this day, remained wholly original, breathtakingly expansive and sexually charged in a way that empowers feminine energy and iconography. O'Keeffe rejected analysis of her works from start to finish, from her early years in New York, to her later years in The West, everyone seemed to get it wrong. So then, let us look again at the paintings and life of Ms. Georgia O'Keeffe and see if we can put this incredible body of work into a new and contemporary context with a fresh eye and revisionist look at this phenomenally bold American.
