Happy launch day to @patrickfreyne.bsky.social's Experts in a Dying Field. If you like music you’ll adore it, but it’s not really about bands or music, but weaves through friendship, people who matter, paths not taken, fate, getting older. Moving and very funny. “Bastard Deodorant. For Bastards!”
And I will never stop going on about Bathing by Duncan Grant (also in the next book)
Happy Pride 🏳️🌈
Since 2020, 29 women in the North of Ireland have been murdered, most by (white) men they knew. Pretty sure that the racist thugs who engaged in violence, arson and intimidation in Belfast last night rioted about any of those attacks... www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/20...
The great Chantal Akerman was born on this day in 1950. She was just 25 years old in 1975 when she made 'Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles' - voted no 1 in the BFI @sightsoundmag.bsky.social Greatest Films of all time. www.bfi.org.uk/film/0063853...
(she's in the next book)
Just spotted that the RA turned me into a drawing...
Ahead of a major show at Tate Modern this summer, I wrote about Ana Mendieta's 'Imagen de Yagul' for the Royal Academy of Arts mag. It’s the most striking of her Silueta series, and laden with contrasts: the vitality of nature juxtaposed with the inevitability of death; otherworldly and corporeal.
Tate show details here. It opens on July 15th and runs until Jan 2027. www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tat...

My favourite form of reporting is not the celebrity interview or political profile; it’s approaching ‘people’ in ‘places’ and asking them questions about ‘stuff’
