The Jazz Butcher; Bloody Nonsense Now this smooth collection of songs is much more enthusing. The Jazz Butcher, with a very fitting title of Bloody Nonsense, is finally available on a domestic label, albeit an obscure one. Complete with a delightful intro to this Northamptonshire underground artist ( “ A Message from the Jazz Butcher: Hey, America. I Slept with Your Wife.” ), it neatly binds together a myriad of musical styles and influences, from punk to jazz, from the Velvet Underground to The Fall. With a calm but Steven Bates, Craig Schultz and Mike Keefer. sophisticated aura, it calls for close attention to the Jazz Butcher’s immediate future. This is one cool cat. .

Much like street art in the United States, art in Nicaragua merges politics with daily life and creativity on both an in­ dividual and communal level. Mark Spence, a UCSB senior, spent a week in Nicaragua earlier this month. The following are some of his reflections on art in Nicaragua and how it differs from art here in the states.

n the United States, and in the rest of the hyper- developed Western World, we have difficult notions of the place and nature of art, politics and I “ culture.” Each is divorced from the other and each is ultimately relegated to a particular forum or edifice. Art’s ultimate residence is a museum. Culture is something acquired and makes its home in ivory towers, vapid cocktail conversations and in the jibbering nonsense of pop-icons. Politics is the medium through which professionals create the confusion that tempers our culture’s failures and problems. When we try to “ in­ terrelate” or “ integrate” these elements (the fact that we use such terms indicates how separate we have made them), the results are invariably clumsy. Often these in­ tegrations can be pointless and insipid failures. The cultured speak of art and yet do no more than “ come and go/ speaking of Michelangelo.” Most displays of political art are merely gestures of cathartic drivel. Guerrilla theater, graffiti, and song, however, all bridge the gap between art and politics. They exist simply because there is no separation between the two. From the cover of “ Ventana — Barricada These mediums of self-expression do little to affect the Cultural,” May 16,1986. culture in which they exist. In the U.S. serious art still only occurs in playhouses, museums and at large concerts — to be seen by the inherently perverse few that maintain the exorbitant price of big thinking and real art. The benefits that our universities, museums and concert halls — and all of their patrons — reap from the rape of the Third World has caused us not only to ignore the suf­ ferings. We now become insanely jealous of current revolutionary cultures. We are jealous that our midirected narcisism, our unfounded artistic egos, our complacent and retarded cultured intelligencia, cannot create or live in a culture that thrives upon an unselfconscious marriage of “ art’7 and “ politics.” In the revolutionary cultures of Central America a cultural revolution is occurring. Father Ernesto Cardenal, Nicaragua’s Minister of Culture, believes that one of that country’s greatest achievements with the revolution is what he calls a “ democratization of culture.” Such a philosophy requires the building of “ a culture that is open and accessible to the masses — in dance, music, theater, publications, libraries, movies. We have made all available to the people as participants and as spectators... We are not seeking a low level, of bad culture for everyone, but rather an elevated culture that is really accessible to all of the people, rich or poor, in the city or the countryside. We seek an integration of popular culture and high culture, of indigenous culture and international culture.” Rosario Murillo, director of the Writers’ Union and the Sandinista Association of Cultural Workers (ASTC), says that in order to understand the development of a “ democratization of culture” one “ must look at the history These illustrations were in a Managuan weekly advertising of cultural work in the revolutionary struggle... The work and art show about the theme of peace. goes back to the time of Sandino (1920s —1930s) when artists were involved as fighters, as solidarity workers, as intellectual supporters... During the armed struggle there was an explosion of popular culture, seen in popular theater performed in the streets, on the barricades and in the liberated zones, in songs sung about the insurrection, in dances and processions in the barrios, in the combative poems that were written, and in the graffiti that was drawn on barrio walls.” The result of all of this work and struggle has been a blending of what art, politics and culture once might have The Nicaragua that I visited tv CHINA CASTLE meant.

The ruins of the old Grand Hotel that fell in the 1972 earthquake have been converted into a remarkable national Art Gallery and theater where art is displayed and where dance and theater are performed and rehearsed. There is nothing like Campbell Hall in all of Nicaragua. The United States is stifling one of history’s noblest endeavors with accusations of totalitarianism. The art and poetry of Nicaragua is powerful, beautiful and horrifying, much more so than our traditional “ high-art.” The reason is simply because our rarefied and narcisistic concerns ignore the incredible suffering of this country. The spirit that Droduces this powerful art — art that is both truly inspired and inspiring— is the hope of the Earth. It is also, perhaps, its greatest achievement. It is the Muse of true art, of truth and art. It is the spirit to persevere, to do more than survive. To create a culture that is politics, that is art, that is all and for all, is the “ state of the arts” in Nicaragua, a state under siege. We the cultured nonsense of America, the selfish artists and patrons, sit upon our soft asses reading abusive condemnations of their revolution. Still we offer excuses for our drivel, drivel pursuit of “ truth” and “ beauty.” Why not instead paint ourselves in blood. — Mark Spence
