Nos fuimos con el caso del Palau de les Arts todavía sin juzgar y con Helga Schmidt, mayor y enferma, sin poder salir de España por si acaso no vuelve. Nos fui- Lmos con la decisión en el aire del Ayuntamiento de Madrid —con la que le cayó al concejal Zapata— de borrar del callejero los nombres de “franquis- tas” como Manuel Machado, Álvaro Cunqueiro, Gerardo Diego o Jardiel Poncela, se les olvidó Cela, el peor de todos y se libraron los músicos, o porque no tienen calle —Tellería sí, entre Huertas y Lope de Vega— o por- que nadie los conoce —lo más probable. No es lo mismo un aviador que bombardeó Madrid y Madrid le dedica una calle —el Capitán Haya— que un escritor que llevó alguna camisa azul, como Cunqueiro o que ejerció la liber- tad del miedo como Gerardo. Nos fuimos con la destitución de Begoña Salinas como directora general de la Fundación Bilbao 700, artífice de Musika-Música, del festival barroco, de las Noches Blancas y de tantas cosas como hacen de la capital vizcaína una de las ciudades con más y mejor vida cultural de España. Su sustituta, OPINIÓN Josune Aritzondo, procede de la Diputación Foral de Guipúzcoa y es un nombre importante en el PNV. El anterior alcalde, Iñaki Azkuna, apostó fuerte por una Fundación abierta a todos los vientos de la cultura. Hoy se nos comunica que se orientará hacia el “fortalecimiento de la memoria histó- rica de Bilbao”, dato fundamental que remacha convenientemente el dere- cho que todo gestor posee, no faltaba más, de rodearse de un equipo de su confianza. Y nos fuimos, en fin, pensando en nuestro editorial anterior, en el que hablábamos del miedo que a la cultura le da la política y su viceversa imposible: quienes aterrizan en ella por vez primera y se sienten como héro- es de nuestro tiempo. Nos fuimos con la discusión, tirando a leve, acerca de lo que el artista debe hacer cuando una desgracia familiar acaece en su vida. Y parece que llegamos a la conclusión de que los tiempos de que el espectáculo debe continuar a pesar de todo pasaron a la historia. O relativamente, pues, en el caso de la imposible prestación de Plácido Domingo como Gianni Schicchi en el Teatro Real, se llegó a una curiosa solución de compromiso. Por res- peto al público, se decía. Un Teatro Real que ya prepara su segundo cente- nario, un poco traído por los pelos, es verdad, pues antes que él estuvo el de los Caños del Peral y el actual se inauguró en 1850 y estuvo cerrado entre 1925 y 1966, fecha en que se abre como sala de conciertos.

Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Bard College The Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, an environment for world-class artistic presentation in the Hudson Valley, was designed by Frank Gehry and opened in 2003. Risk-taking performances and provocative programs take place in the 800-seat Sosnoff Theater, a proscenium-arch space, and in the 220-seat Theater Two, which features a flexible seating configuration. The Center is home to Bard College’s Theater & Performance and Dance Programs, and host to two annual summer festivals: SummerScape, which offers opera, dance, theater, film, and cabaret; and the Bard Music Festival, which celebrates its 24th year in August with “Stravinsky and His World.” The 2014 festival will be devoted to Franz Schubert. The Center bears the name of the late Richard B. Fisher, the former chair of Bard College’s Board of Trustees. This magnificent building is a tribute to his vision and leadership. The outstanding arts events that take place here would not be possible without the contributions made by the Friends of the Fisher Center. We are grateful for their support and welcome all donations.
