Listen to La Cricca di Umberto and enjoy...

(Umberto Pagnini's Band)

I met Umberto in the '70.
He was Chute Libre drummer,
I was a young photographer.




Having beaten his way through the Dolphin Orchestra and big bands
like Claude Bolling's, Martial Solal's, Michel Legrand's or funky
Captain Mercier's, La Cricca di Umberto is his own current group.

Sax Tenor, Laurent Meyer
Fender Rhodes, Alfio Origlio
Bass, Marc Bertaux
Guit, Jimmi Drouillard
Drums, Umberto Pagnini.



Brasiliana
from last Umberto's CD Donne Latine
smells good Brazil...

Le Mur Oberkampf, last 2 posters...

Happily there is Le Mur/My Space...
because I didn't pass by for more than a month.















Here is the last one,
featured by S.M. & J.F. on December 13th...















but who performed the November 15th Mur ?
I don't know, so I asked My Space...

Griset, a Japanese Artist's Nest !

Japanese dancer Eita Hasegawa (center), lives in Griset when in Paris,
(as a makeup artist)...

And...
































... painter Megumi Terao, coming from a japanese advertising school,
lives in Paris since 2001. Here some work from her Gallery.

the dancefloor has always been the main target since the
beginning.

After two evening parties at Les Coulisses Club in Montmartre,
Funky Saturday moves to Paris Oberkampf area
at...


L'Antirouille - 5, rue Moret - Paris XI

ParisPointGriset Banned from Entrecard !

Just received the following message from Entrecard (Limited):

Quote
Your account 'ParisPointGriset' on entrecard.com
has been deleted.
The administrator gave the following reason:
Nudity is not permitted on Entrecard.
Unquote


Prudish, prim and proper deep America, mixing up culture
and obscenity !

At first sight - reading the EC message, I thought they definitely got some
problem lately with all those tweets all around - then I've read the reason
why my account was deleted : nudity ! (see previous post).
As a matter of fact, they deleted G@ttoGiallo's account
which means its 2 blogs !
Effectively, due to Africa's extremely hot climate, G@tto's
African blog risks to feature some nudity as well...
yes, they got a problem at EC.


Yours faithfully,
G@tto

Feb. 14/2010 update :
PPG has never had as much
visits as since its post on Shibari
and since EntreCard kicked it out.
Curious enough, visitors mostly
came from France.

Shibari or the Art of Eroticism.

A fascinating sight of Japanese traditions and codes through the
looking glass of film maker Xavier Brillat.
His film, Haruki Yukimura & Nana-Chan, (2006/38mn), featured
in many film festivals and recently broadcasted by arte TV channel.





Master Haruki Yukimura and model Nana Chan featuring Shibari's knotting and
unknotting art in an intimate atmosphere made of soft sounds and impressive images.

Agnès Giard, a counterculture journalist
who focused on deviant art and japanese
erotic culture, here in a video interview
with Xavier Brillat about his film...


Search the web...
- Hojojutsu, (Hayanawa, Torinawa), martial art.
- Kimbaku, Shibari, bondage art.

I've already showed you Eva's Brocante Shop, last year (*).
Now you can visit her through a nice video, but you'd better
go there, when in Paris and discover the shop by yourselves.
