Hoje há Grosvenor na Gulbenkian

Diz o site da Fundação:

Aclamado de forma entusiástica, o jovem pianista inglês Benjamin Grosvenor tornou-se, aos onze anos, o mais novo «Jovem Músico do Ano» eleito pela BBC. Passada uma década, em 2014, Grosvenor atuava nos BBC Proms, protagonizando a estreia mundial de Day Break Shadows Flee, de Judith Weir. A facilidade com que circula entre diferentes reportórios encontra-se patente no álbum Dances – em que junta peças de Bach, Chopin, Scriabin e Granados – que valeu da revista Gramopho...

Lords of Dogtown

From i-D:

Photographer Hugh Holland was in the right place at the right time, he says. LA, 1975, specifically. "Skateboarding was happening in many places, but not like in California," he says over the phone from LA, where he still lives at 74. "To me, it seemed like this was the center of everything." Hugh's photos of long-haired, golden-skinned kids gunning down Hollywood's hills and tearing up its boulevards document the very origins of skate culture.

Over the course of three years, Hollan...
