Art & Audience
Marianne Faithfull, or the Power of Vulnerability
Marianne Faithfull sings dark songs. Never-ending longing, not happy endings; courage and endurance, not flash-in-the-pan bravado.
Leonard Cohen, or Living Presence
What is it about Leonard Cohen that makes such an encounter possible? That replaces small talk with silence, that makes presence palpable?
The Only Ones (Peter Perrett), or the Elusive Scent
The Only Ones were a heady perfume, a blend of champagne cognac and smouldering coals, eros, death and belladonna.
