Bret McCabe Ramblings on arts, culture, and other soft targets. @bretmcbret. Some endnotes: A quick hat tip to some sources who helped me navigate Only When it’s Dark Enough Can You See the Stars. June 11, 2016. June 11, 2016. Tonight is the closing reception for Only When it’s Dark Enough Can You See the Stars. And, yes, I’m going to use this event as a shameless excuse to link to my arguably too wordy essay about the show that appeared over at Bmore Art. The first is art historian Rebecca Zorach’s.

Bret McCabe Ramblings on arts, culture, and other soft targets. @bretmcbret. Ear Candy: On Matthew Shipp and Michael Bisio’s Live in Seattle. April 12, 2016. April 12, 2016. The 1947 remembering-a-lover-lost song “Green Dolphin Street”. Miles Davis’ confident vulnerability. Or Wynton Kelly’s bluesy elation. When pianist Matthew Shipp. And bassist Michael Bisio.

Bret McCabe Ramblings on arts, culture, and other soft targets. @bretmcbret. A list of writers. April 4, 2016. April 4, 2016. OK, so because I was ignoring the internet for most of the weekend I didn’t pay much attention to the Gay Talese. Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times. 8216;s crime fiction. The late art critic and historian/curator Arlene Raven, Baltimore-born, Hopkins-educated, who I had never heard about until her 2006 death, and since then the 1989 book she edited, Art in the Public Interest.

Bret McCabe Ramblings on arts, culture, and other soft targets. @bretmcbret. Happy birthday Carmen Laforet. September 6, 2016. September 6, 2016. Carmen Laforet (image stolen from internet). Happy birthday to the late Spanish author Carmen Laforet, who was born on this day in 1921. She’s a writer I knew zilch about prior to this summer, when a passing mention of her 1945 novel Nada in an essay that I was reading made me curious about it. Is one of those kinds of sneaky knockouts. In the New York Times.
