AD JUJOL
Josep Maria Jujol was born in 1879 in the city of Tarragona, although his parents came from the country. His father was a schoolteacher, who for career reasons moved with the family to Gracia when Jujol was nine years old. Gracia was at that time still a village, and not yet incorporated into Greater Barcelona. The family later moved again, permanently, into the centre of Barcelona proper. Jujol nevertheless felt bound all his life to his parents' native countryside, and his - strongly emotional - relationship with their home region was to...

(H/B) LAST SUPPER
When it was evening, he took his place with the twelve; and while they were eating, he said, 'truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.' And they became greatly distressed and began to say to him one after another, 'surely not I, lord?' he answered, 'the one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. The son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that one by whom the son of man is betrayed! It would have been better for that one not to have been born.' Judas, who betrayed him, said, 'surely not I rabbi?' he r...

(P/B) ATTRACTION OF THE OPPOSITES
After more than a decade of hosting a number of artist studios and running a diverse international program of exhibitions and performances the Artist Initiative CUCOSA faced the ultimate blow of having its doors shut down for good. In favor of those who think art to be unnecessary and insignificant we might soon have to witness another shopping complex ascending from the ashes of CUCOSA. Hopefully the initiative will continue its activities elsewhere but then again only time will tell. On the occasion of the two consequent exhibitions that...

(P/B) JAZZ GREATS
I was fortunate that as a young employee of the BBC, I was allowed to follow some elaborate hunches and a deep-seated interest, and go off to make a series of jazz documentaries for Radio Three. This involved foolhardy treks across New Orleans in search of Buddy Bolden's home, and hair-raising trips up into Harlem or the South Bronx to seek out some long-forgotten witness to the early jazz era. My colleague in the making of these programmes was Russell Davies, and I am grateful to him both for his unfailing good company and for the excelle...

(H/B) BERLIN
Colours of the Night reveals a surprising and fascinating face of Berlin, as the daytime Cinderella turns into a city of lights and a riot of colour with the onset of darkness. Light creates surreal spaces in which buildings sparkle like jewels on dark velvet. Light in its changing shapes fascinates photographer Leo Seidel - the cold light of neon adverts and on building sites, warm light from windows and streetlights ... or the unreal twilight that erodes all outlines and banishes contrasts. Nothing in his pictures is staged. He waits pat...

(P/B) GABRIEL FAURE
Faure's magic is, to me, quite unique. With his Redon-like sense of ineffable beauty, the knife-edge balance of purity and sensuality and the passionate elan which sweeps him forward in a torrent of winds and waterfalls, Faure gets under the skin like nobody else. His world, too, is a source of endless fascination. Writing this book was a chance to re-immerse myself in an era that has always held tremendous magnetism for me. The music of Debussy, Ravel, Chausson and many others; the fiction of Proust and Ivan Turgenev; the fascinating circ...

(H/B) PAINTINGS OF THE RAZMNAMA
Nearly fifty years ago, during a year-long London visit, I wrote an article for Lalit Kala on manuscript painting at Agra in circa 1605. It included remarks about the Birla Razmnama. Alas, the article was never printed. While being taken to the Post Office by Underground, my small suitcase opened accidentally and the sole copy of the typed article toppled out. Instantly, it was sucked into the tunnel by the wind of a departing train. While I gawked at the flying spiral of papers, a saintly and responsible Underground employee, barely young...
