Candido Camero

2010-06-01T09:38:00.005+02:00

Candido Camero
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Candido de Guerra Camero, also known simply as Candido (born April 22, 1921) is a Cuban percussionist (mainly conga and bongo) who backed many Afro-Cuban jazz and straightforward jazz acts since the 1950s. He is credited as the first person to use the congas in jazz music.

Early on he had recorded in his native Cuba with Machito. He moved to New York in 1952 and started recording with Dizzy Gillespie. During 1953-54 he was in the Billy Taylor quartet and in 1954 he performed and recorded with Stan Kenton.

He also enjoyed some hits during the disco era, most notably with the Babatunde Olatunji penned track "Jingo" which he recorded for Salsoul Records, which released from his Dancin' and Prancin' album. It peaked at #55 in the UK Singles Chart in July 1981.

On January 15, 2009 he was the surprise guest at Zinc, a jazz club in New York's Greenwich Village.

He was honoured with the National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters Award in 2008.

2010-04-13T19:34:00.007+02:00

Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole

(May 20, 1959 – June 26, 1997)

This is my tribute to Iz, a famous Hawaiian musician.

He became famous outside Hawaii when his album Facing Future was released in 1993. His medley of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World"

was subsequently featured in several films, television programs, and commercials.

Through his consummate ukulele playing and incorporation of other genres (such as jazz and reggae),

Iz remains one of the major influences in Hawaiian music over the last 15 years.

Lifting au Palais de la Bourse de Marseille

2010-04-07T12:37:00.015+02:00

Mon peintre est exposé sur la Canebière!

Suite au concours mis en place par la Chambre Commerce et Industrie Marseille Provence, j'ai la chance d'avoir été sélectionné ainsi que 18 autres artistes, pour exposer une de mes illustrations : "Le Peintre", sur la bâche, durant les travaux de rénovation du Palais de la Bourse sur la Canebière à Marseille.

Les œuvres seront ensuite vendues aux enchères au mois de Mai.

Pendant deux mois – de mars à mai 2010 – les Marseillais mais aussi les « venus d’ailleurs » pourront photographier et « faire parler » le Palais de la Bourse, mieux connaître les jeunes créateurs, leurs démarches artistiques, leurs écoles.

Ils pourront également voter pour leur œuvre favorite et s’inscrire depuis leur mobile à la vente aux enchères publiques des œuvres dont le bénéfice sera intégralement reversé aux artistes.

Je n'ai pas l'habitude de demander mais :

"Please!!! Vote for me!!!" ★★★★☆

L’artiste le plus populaire verra son œuvre reproduite et affichée au sein des points d’accueil de la CCI Marseille Provence sur le territoire.

Love Serge

2010-01-25T19:47:00.009+01:00

La semaine dernière le film sur Serge Gainsbourg est sorti, c'est l'occasion pour moi de lui rendre enfin hommage.

Mais c'est aussi pour moi l'occasion de dessiner Brigitte Bardot, j'avais envie de la dessiner depuis longtemps mais je n'avais jamais trouvé comment… Je pense que nue c'est pas mal.

Love Serge!

* * * * * * * * * * *

This is my tribute to Serge Gainsbourg, my favorite french pop artist.

Gainsbourg was a French singer-songwriter, actor and director. Gainsbourg's extremely varied musical style and individuality make him difficult to categorize. His legacy has been firmly established, and he is often regarded as one of the world's most influential popular musicians.

A feature film entitled "Serge Gainsbourg (Vie Héroïque)" was recently released in France in January 2010.

It's also time for me to draw Brigitte Bardot, there was a long time I want to draw her, but I never know how to draw her… I think nude is so right isn't it?

* * * * * * * * * * *

You can see this illustration with many other into the blog DRAW SERGE!

An illustrative tribute to the late, great Gainsbourg. Curated by Jonathan Edwards.

Bellaciao est l'épopée d'un diamant à travers le XXe siècle, imaginée par le scénariste Fred Bernard, préfacé par Alain Lachartre, et illustrée par 24 illustrateurs d'Agent 002. La direction artistique a été assurée par Pierre Berget / Be dandy.

C'est sur l'air de "Bijou, Bijou" que se clôt ce voyage en images.

Pour ma part j'ai réalisé ces 3 illustrations, nous sommes en Mai 68…

Nada Acimovich

2009-08-13T10:58:00.005+02:00

A Serbian woman has been cured of a deadly heart condition when she was struck by lightning.

Shocked doctors who'd been treating Nada Acimovich, 51, for arrhythmia irregular heartbeats that can be a killer discovered she had made a complete recovery.

The condition for which Tony Blair had treatment five years ago is normally treated with mild electric shocks to reset the heart's rhythm.

Mrs Acimovich, of Sljivovica, Serbia, was saved from death by her rubber soled shoes but the electric jolt put her heartbeat back to normal, say medics.

"In the first place she's lucky to be alive because of the lightning strike, but she's now going to live for much longer too," explained one.

Villa Arpel's Chair

2009-07-21T20:31:00.013+02:00

La semaine dernière j'ai trouvé cette chaise au milieu d'un tas de gravas dans une benne à ordures…

Elle m'a plu dès que je l'ai aperçue, je l'ai aussitôt mise dans ma voiture, en arrivant chez moi j'ai tout de suite envoyé une photo à mon ami Cami qui m'a dit qu'elle était (mais sans les accoudoirs) dans la villa Arpel du film "Mon Oncle" de Jacques Tati.

Même si Cami s'y connaît beaucoup en design, je ne le croyais pas trop, car c'était trop beau pour être vrai…

Mais après quelques recherches je me suis rendu compte qu'il avait raison et que j'avais eu beaucoup de chance de passer dans cette rue ce jour là.

Last week I found this chair in a heap of engraved in a garbage dumpster… She reminds me a chair of the villa Arpel in the Jacques Tati movie "Mon Oncle".

I'm very lucky!

Thank You Michael…
