Lāszlō Hortobāgyi Letter to Pt
Lāszlō Hortobāgyi Letter to Pt. Suresh Chandwankar (Founder-Honorary Secretary of Mumbai–based SIRC and a member of the Department of Condensed Matter Physics at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai) connection with the death of Pt. Ravi Shankar: rethinking on a phenomenon (2012) Dear Sureshji Pandit Still less is a Genius. I would like to congratulate your Necrolog. Although it is not fair held in many cases Pt. Ravi Shankar's reputation on World Wide (because He comes from a Brahmin family of Benares with great karma-possibilities) compared against a number of lesser-known genius, like Pt. Nikhil Banerji, Satish Kumar, Gulam Hussain Khan, Balarám Pathak, Budhaditya Mukherji, etc.etc., not mention so many Karnatak Indian Master Giants unknown in the West too, but He was absolutly one of the greatest and latest Classical Masters. I think His story is a gem of our culture and of the false consciousness of human collectivities, one of the possible millions. Ravindra Shankar was born in Benares, 1920, in a brahmin family, thus, in a high position and having great chances. In the 30ies, as a dancer being member in his brother Uday Shankar’s troupe, he regularly managed to visit Europe. This meeting took place in the spirit of romantic ethos of the “art”, that wouldn’t even show a sign of change in our days, the Schubert-like pathos and the false romantic of the suffering artist, that completely prevented him, the extra- European man coming from the cretin and indifferent world of the English colonial culture of that time, from finding the only possible linkage between the European and Indian music in respect of the Gregorian vocal practice, the instrumental styles of the Middle Ages and the standard language of Baroque improvisation.

PRESS RELEASE Genesis House Gallery 26 October 2011 GENESIS PUBLICATIONS & Reading Rooms Fine Limited Editions Since 1974 genesis-publications.com The Faces unveil their first book with an exhibition of photos. A nd new paintings by Ronnie Wood Surrey, UK, 26 October 2011 – Last night at Genesis House Gallery & Reading Rooms, two heroes of contemporary rock music came together to announce the launch of their new book: FACES 1969-75 . The legendary guitarist of the Jeff Beck Group, Faces and the Rolling Stones - Ronnie Wood - joined fellow band mate, former drummer for the Small Faces, Faces, and The Who - Kenney Jones - for a private celebration and unveiling of the Faces’ first official book. This November 2011, a new 8-week exhibition commemorates the book’s launch: Nearly 100 pages are blown up and reproduced on Genesis’s gallery walls. Visitors are invited to stroll through the Faces’ glory years from the band’s First Step in 1969 to their eventual split in 1975.

Entitled ‘The Famous Flames Suite’ – the paintings capture the Rolling Stones in performance. ‘Making the book we went through so many photos it brought back memories and, when we were finished, I looked through it, and it actually brought a tear to my eye. I thought it was just me but then I spoke to Woody and he said exactly the same thing had happened to him.’ Kenney Jones ‘We were bored so much hanging around in places where they didn’t even know how to make a salad… It’s amazing how such great things can come out of being bored.’ Ronnie Wood Among hundreds of guests, Ronnie and Kenney were also joined by new Faces frontman, Mick Hucknall and artist Sir Peter Blake .

Bob Dylan & Rock
Portland, OR [email protected] 503-319-6358 The items in this catalog are the legacy of a modern renaissance man. He was born in New Orleans, and educated himself at prestigious Southern Universities. This led to a professorship of Literature at UC Berkley. He then went on to successfully and profitably lead his family business. His passions included collecting first edition books, African big game hunting, political affiliations and Rock N’ Roll. His first love in musicians was Bob Dylan. Having personally attended dozens of Dylan concerts, Michael had back stage passes to prove it. Dylan, Bob. The Drawn Blank Series. New York: Washington Green Fine Art, 2016. Arabic Numbers Edition #154 / 295. Six (6) Giclee limited edition prints. All are hand-signed by Dylan and numbered in graphite pencil. 21” x 15.75” image with 6” border. Printed by GTZ Fine Art Editions. Prints include: Man on Bridge; Sidewalk Café; Sunflowers; Sunday Afternoon; Fisherman; Woman in Red Lion Pub. These prints are still in their original envelopes housed in an attractive boxed folio. As new. Whilst travelling on tour between 1989 and 1992, Bob Dylan created a collection of drawings that were published in a book entitled 'Drawn Blank' in 1994. These expressive works capture Dylan's chance encounters and observations. The creation of these portraits, interiors, landscapes, still lifes, nudes and street scenes were done to "relax and refocus a restless mind". This graphics collection captures the true essence of Dylan's original paintings. It is the production of these prints that enables a wider audience to appreciate the skill and imagination not only of Dylan but his broad artistic creative talent.

Taken by an Unknown 17-Year-Old Photography Student – Published Posthumously for the First Time in a New Limited Edition Publication, Woodstock Experience
UNSEEN ARCHIVE OF WOODSTOCK IMAGES UNEARTHED Taken by an unknown 17-year-old photography student – published posthumously for the first time in a new limited edition publication, Woodstock Experience. London August 2009: A forgotten archive of photographs, taken at the Woodstock Music & Art Fair 40 years ago has been unearthed by UK-based limited edition publishers Genesis Publications. Taken by 17-year-old high school student Dan Garson, the archive has spent the last four decades in a basement, stored in a cardboard box. As well as images of the mud, rain, trampled fences, drugs, skinny dippers and eccentric festival goers that have made Woodstock so iconic, the archive features previously unseen shots of Jimi Hendrix, Joan Baez, Ravi Shankar, Arlo Guthrie and The Band in performance. Rona Elliot, the former entertainment correspondent for NBC!s Today Show, worked at Woodstock as a community relations officer and helped track down Dan Garson!s archive and researched his story. RONA ELLIOT: Dan!s remarkable photographs reveal an exceptional talent, fully formed at 17 years of age. His pictures provide a cohesive narrative of his own Woodstock experience. They demonstrate that he understood, perfectly, both where he was at that moment in time, and the culturally shifting spectacle he was recording. While Dan worked in the photo pit, shooting the musicians onstage, he separated himself from the other photographers. Rather than huddle together with the group, Dan stationed himself adjacent to the film crew. As a result, his images are both unfamiliar and fresh to the eye nearly 40 years after they were taken.

Author and Vietnam Veteran Tim O Brien Tells How the Woodstock Festival Let American Gis Know They Were Not Alone
WOODSTOCK HELPED US GET THROUGH !NAM Author and Vietnam Veteran Tim O Brien tells how the Woodstock festival let American GIs know they were not alone. London July 2009: Award-winning author and Vietnam veteran Tim O!Brien has revealed the role music played in the lives of American GIs serving in Vietnam and how the Woodstock festival boosted their morale. In an interview published as part of a limited edition box set entitled Woodstock Experience, he says: TIM O!BRIEN: To know there were all these people who felt the same about it as I felt, as I was in it... It felt good. Music helped us bounce to that war. It gave us a soundtrack. One of my strongest recollections of Vietnam – over all the horror and dead people, even stronger than those memories – is the memory of the whole company of us, 100 men, shifting across the rice paddies, right before dusk had settled in and the whole company singing !Hey Jude". !Anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude refrain, don"t carry the world upon your shoulders..." That"s what the world felt like to us. We were carrying the whole damn war on our shoulders. O!Brien, a pioneer of "creative non-fiction!, first won literary acclaim for his 1973 memoir If I Should Die In A Combat Zone and, in 1990, his book The Things They Carried was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. His work is famous for its conscious confusion of fact and fiction on the premise that art illuminates reality. TIM O!BRIEN: Songs like !White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane.

DEREK TAYLOR: "A book which tells the story of growing up, not necessarily the hard way but certainly not the easy way, for no matter how greatly privilege and wealth may have seemed to grace the BEATLES' evolution, 'easy' is not the word for what happened to them on their way to what has come to be known as The Top." The Big Leather Job: For Brian Roylance, the late founder of Genesis, the prospect of publishing the lyrics of GEORGE HARRISON marked a change of direction.

That Lucky Old Sun
GENESIS PUBLICATIONS presents ThatHistory in the MakingLucky Old Sun When talking about music, Brian Wilson is quick to mention The Beatles. ‘I have the Sgt. Pepper’s album in my music room,’ he writes in the new edition That Lucky Old Sun. In earlier publications by Genesis, Paul McCartney and George Martin have, in return, praised the arrangements of Brian Wilson. Brian continues, ‘Paul played ‘She’s Leaving Home’ for me on the piano when he visited me in the recording studio around April 1967. It knocked me out.’ Sir Peter Blake’s cover for that particular Beatles album is recognised the world over. Almost as well known is Peter’s affection for the music of Brian Wilson whose group he first celebrated in his 1964 oil painting simply entitled, Beach Boys. In fact, Peter admits, ‘I once said in an interview that I would rather have done the album cover for Pet Sounds than The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s.’ Peter’s equal admiration for both groups shouldn’t surprise us at all. And when ‘Brian’s people picked up on it’, what followed was a unique working relationship that has drawn together one of the most influential composers of our time and one the world’s greatest living visual artists. From Concert to Canvas That Lucky Old Sun was first performed at the Royal Festival Hall, London, in 2007. A year later it was developed in the studio. ‘I wanted to put together a concept album,’ Brian explains; and the result was hailed as a ‘masterpiece’ by The Times.

Genesis Celebrates 50 Years of the Beatles with Exhibition of Unseen Beatles Photos & Drawings
PRESS RELEASE Genesis House Gallery 01 March 2011 GENESIS PUBLICATIONS & Reading Rooms Fine Limited Editions Since 1974 genesis-publications.com Genesis celebrates 50 years of The Beatles with exhibition of unseen Beatles photos & drawings Genesis Publications showcases a celebration of the Beatles at the new Genesis House Gallery & Reading Rooms, in Guildford. The exhibit marks the 50th anniversary of The Beatles’ appearance at Liverpool’s Cavern Club, in 1961. An archive of unseen Beatles photographs by photographer Micheal Ward will be on show – alongside fine art prints by artist Klaus Voormann, who himself played bass with the band during their early days in Hamburg (between 1960 and ‘63). Michael Ward documented The Beatles on the day they got their first number one with ‘Please Please Me’. Michael spent the whole day and night photographing the band, finishing at the Cavern, capturing the final moments before Beatlemania took hold, changing the world forever. ‘People seem to make it all very complicated but it’s all really very simple – I just happened to be there.’ – Michael Ward The photographs remained largely unseen since the 60’s, until Michael approached Genesis with the idea of turing them into a limited edition book & print set. Also on display will be rare and unseen artwork by celebrated artist Klaus Voormann, famed for his Beatles’ Revolver and Anthology album sleeves. On show will be paintings and sketches taken from his limited edition book, Hamburg Days – a memoir the times Klaus spent with the Beatles, 1960-‘63, with a foreword from George Harrison and an afterword from Paul McCartney.
