Yes, lots of yellow cats for a 3-hours walk in the streets of the Goutte d'Or.
Thoma Vuille, aka M. Chat, launched the invitation, but I chose not to go
because my presence would have been likely to cause too much confusion
and misunderstanding.
[2 other tours around the Goutte d'Or, with & without yellow cats, HERE and HERE].

Four documentary films, directed by Laurent Brégeat, on four of the founding artists
of Indian contemporary art: M.F. Hussain, Ram Kumar, Akbar Padamsee, S.H. Raza.
A Lalit Kala Akademi production of Arts (National Akademi of Arts, New Delhi).
Tomorrow, May 21/2011 at Auditorium INHA, Galerie Colbert
6, rue des Petits Champs / 2, rue Vivienne - 75002 Paris
Four "self-portraits" captured on the spot, where each artist puts his eyes back on his life,
filtering what ultimately remains essential in his art.
Laurent Brégeat reveals the history of the artists' beginnings, their challenges,
their landmarks and highlights their lives, referring friends and events, thoughts
and anecdotes, lessons and influences.
Underpinned by inteviews with art critics, collectors and artists, supported by
unpublished documents, these films - drawing together the historical and sociological context
of these great Indian artists of the post-independence era and showing the journey of a hinge
generation - are essential for the history of Indian and international art.
These films are part of the international symposium of the Research Center on the Far East
of Paris-Sorbonne (CREOP) Heritage of India: research perspectives.
This first series will be followed in 2011 by another set, covering a broad cultural project:
the Archive of Contemporary Indian Art.

Elana Gutmann is a painter and printmaker whose work
has evolved to include photography, video and installation
works.
A first-generation American artist with roots in Eastern and
Europe, Gutmann began exhibiting her work in Europe and
America in 1989.
"My paintings and drawings are both inquiry and discovery, each voyage
- part memory, part fantasy. The process is dialectic, the investigation of
a truth through discussion, a conversation between the work and me (then
the work and the viewer). Choices are made, revisited, some removed. Their traces remain. Colour jumps
to form, form instigates colour, relationships occur over a period of hours, days and months.
They manifest in a "story" - a visual tale."
Clairière, the Talking Trees, - Elana Gutmann's last project*
is "an installation work that employs language, symbol and
sound to evoke migration and the rich results of the movement
of culture individual from place to place." [MORE]
< video
Although Clairière is to be first viewed in the exhibition LandArt, Basel, it is designed to
travel to multiple sites thereafter.

* [This project will only be funded if at least $ 12,000 is pledged by Thursday Aug 4, 3:18pm EDT].
