These words were said by Rob Challice, co- founder of the booking agency Coda and it sums up the general feeling at the eighth edition of Primavera Pro, the meeting that brings together professionals from the music business during the week of Primavera Sound. Hearing such notable voices of experience in the music of the last 30 years such as Billy Bragg, Viv Albertine (The Slits), Geoff Barrow (Portishead) and the musician and producer Youth this year has fused with the exciting discourse of the new generations, who have given a clear picture of the revolutions still to come such as that of blockchain (by Imogen Heap, founder of Mycelia), innovative ways of reinvigorating and regenerating the sector (like Caroline SM, a Londoner of only 22 years of age who is already an essential player in the British music industry) and ground breaking artistic visions (as is the case of Carlota Guerrero, the Barcelona photographer responsible for the art work on Solange’s latest album). There were almost 3300 accredited professionals of 55 different nationalities at Primavera Pro 2017, and a great many of them participated in the 125 activities programmed from Wednesday 31st May to Friday 2nd June in the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (CCCB). The site has now consolidated itself as the ideal home for a meeting which combines comfort with the luxury setting of the Pati de les Dones, where, once again, there was the networking area and the Day Pro stage on which a large number of newcomer bands from 12 different countries. The different sections of Primavera Pro have also firmly established themselves: Primavera Pro Startups awarded their prize to the Berlin application Uberchord, which brings the teaching of music into the XXI century, and Primavera Pro On- Screen centred its focus on the possibilities offered by Virtual Reality applied to music, another revolution on the horizon. Also the third editions of the International Congresses of Independent Labels and of Concert Venues have consolidated themselves as the ideal meeting point to discuss specific topics 2 such as the mission of independent labels in 2017 and the need to further the development of musical cities. And of course, Primavera Pro 2017 has not been short of debates. Burning issues such as Brexit have been discussed in great detail only to reach the conclusion that nobody knows exactly what repercussions there will be, while the resale of tickets was the subject of a heated discussion between promoters and ticketing companies, proving the need for a regulation in the sector. But on the whole reasons for optimism predominated. Or as the legendary Billy Bragg said at the end of his emotional chat with the journalist Antonio Baños: “The glass is always half full”. 3 Primavera Sound 2017 in numbers Public: 200,000 Number of live shows: 346 Number of Artists: 264 Primavera Pro: Professionals accredited: 3.300 Activities (conferences, presentations, networking sessions, etc): 125 Primavera Pro Showcases: 75 4 Line Up Primavera Sound 2017 !!!

  • Exhibitionein Film Von Joanna Hogg Mit Viv Albertine, Liam Gillick & Tom Hiddleston
    EXHIBITION ein Film von Joanna Hogg mit Viv Albertine, Liam Gillick & Tom Hiddleston | UK 2013 | 104 Minuten | englische Originalfassung mit deutschen Untertiteln | Fugu Filmverleih | Deutscher Kinostart: 11. Dezember 2014 “It’s in the Walls!” D in EXHIBITION SYNOPSIS Zwei Künstler, ein Haus, eine unkonventionelle Ehe. H und D leben in einem extravaganten Bau im Londoner Stadtteil Kensington. Sie arbeiten parallel an ihren Projekten, geben Telefoninterviews, lassen die Außenwelt nur gedämpft herein und verabreden sich über die Haussprechanlage zu Sex oder Abendessen. H. hat das Gefühl, schon zu lange an einem Ort zu leben. Er überzeugt D, das Haus zu verkaufen. Im Prozess der Ablösung gerät die Beziehung in eine Krise. Plötzlich erhält D, die Angst vor Veränderungen hat, das Angebot einer großen Einzelausstellung. Wird die Ehe zerbrechen oder ein Neuanfang gelingen? Stellt sich heraus, dass ihr Traumhaus die ganze Zeit schon ein Gefängnis war? PRESSENOTIZ EXHIBITION, der dritte Film der „einzigartig begabten Filmemacherin“ (Martin Scorsese) Joanna Hogg, ist ein großstädtisches Kammerspiel mit drei Darstellern: der Ex-Slits-Gitarristin Viv Albertine, dem Maler und Objektkünstler Liam Gillick und dem „H-House“ des Architekten James Melvin. PRODUKTIONSNOTIZEN EXHIBITION ist der dritte Spielfilm von Joanna Hogg, einer vor allem von der britischen Filmkritik umjubelten Filmregisseurin und –autorin, die 2007 mit UNRELATED auf sich aufmerksam machte und deren zweiter Spielfilm ARCHIPELAGO (2010) auch in Deutschland ins Kino kam. Beide Filme zeigten Hoggs Talent für Ensemblechoreografien, für einen analytisch- beobachtenden Stil und einen scharfen Blick auf die englische Mittelklasse – deren Verhaltensweisen, Ängste, Tabus und Verletzlichkeiten sie sehr genau kennt. UNRELATED und ARCHIPELAGO sind raue emotionale Dramen und spröde Sozialkomödien gleichermaßen, die ihre Autorin als originelle neue Stimme im britischen Kino ausweisen.

  • CHAPTER 2 ‘From the Night and the Light, All Festivals Are Golden’: the Festivalization of Culture in the Late Modernity1,2
    CHAPTER 2 ‘From the night and the light, all festivals are golden’: The festivalization of culture in the late modernity1,2 Paula Guerra Abstract Festivals have been stated as important forms of social and cultural participation. In the twenty‐first century, all countries have been faced with a number of annual2 festivals, but also by diversifying the type of festivals, its location and its audiences. The festival model has expanded all over the world and became globalize. With this model emerged the so‐ called ‘festivalization of culture’. Portugal was no different in this phenomenon. The main purpose of this chapter is to explore the Portuguese festival dynamics. These dynamics have the function of globalization coding, marketing and culture of media coverage, mobilizing thousands of actors on the supply side, in mediation and on the demand side. There are several elements that prove this in Portugal: unprecedented evolution in the number of festivals over the past two decades; the spread of festivals around the country, especially in its Atlantic coast and in metropolitan areas; the exponential increase of the habitués; the weight of the turnover of the festivals in the statement of accounts culture and cultural industries; the importance of festivals for the launch and projection of the bands; and, above all, the design of a new way of life in an environment marked by consumptions, appropriations and embodiments of practices, associated with experience and sociability of the festival. 1 This chapter result of an intensive research carried out since 2005, anchored in three projects. The first, developed between 2005 and 2009, Urban cultures and youth lifestyles: Scenery, sounds and aesthetic in contemporary Portuguese (SFRH / BD / 24614/2005), at the Institute of Sociology of the University of Porto (IS‐UP), coordinated by the author of this article and funded by the Science and Technology Foundation (FCT).

  • A Film by Joanna Hogg
    presents EXHIBITION A FILM BY JOANNA HOGG UK / COLOUR / 104 MINUTES / 2013 A Kino Lorber Release from Kino Lorber, Inc. 333 West 39 St., Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 (212) 629-6880 Publicity Contacts: Rodrigo Brandão – [email protected] Matt Barry – [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS When D and H decide to sell the home they have loved and lived in for two decades, they begin a process of saying goodbye to their shared history under the same roof. The upheaval causes anxieties to surface, and wife and performance artist D, struggles to control the personal and creative aspects of her life with H. Dreams, memories, fears, have all imprinted themselves on their home, which exists as a container for their lives and has played such an important role in their relationship. LONG SYNOPSIS Artists D (Viv Albertine) and H (Liam Gillick) are a married couple who have lived together in a West London house for nearly 20 years. It is a modernist house - all verticals, reflecting windows and sliding partitions – and seemingly the ideal residence for two artists who each work independently at home in their separate spaces, occasionally communicating briefly by intercom. Throughout EXHIBITION we see D and H living together, working separately, communicating or failing to communicate – in a series of moments depicting a long-term relationship that sometimes seems to be in meltdown, at other times extremely strong. It’s autumn. H suggests to D that she’s unwilling to discuss her work with him; she says she’s reluctant to expose herself to his criticism.
