«Todas las canciones surgen en sue?os, seg?n los pueblos xavante. Se accede a las canciones despertando a los ni?os con la esperanza de escuchar una canci?n que podr?an estar so?ando.
En la esperada precuela de La viuda Basquiat, Jennifer Clement demuestra que una verdadera fiesta tiene en su n?cleo lo mismo que una verdadera rebeli?n: una comunidad se organiza para abrir un par?ntesis y crear nuevas reglas, con el fin de hacer de la vida una mejor experiencia. Quiz? por eso las grandes revoluciones pol?ticas han implicado siempre grandes metamorfosis culturales.
Growing up in '60s Mexico City, Jennifer Clement lived next door to Frida Kahlo's house. It was an unorthodox and bohemian childhood, living alongside artists, communists, revolutionaries and poets, and one that allowed an awakening of creative freedom and curiosity about the world. Leaving behind the revolutions in Latin America for the burgeoning counter-culture scene in '80s New York, Clement quickly became a fixture on the art scene, inhabiting the world of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Colette Lumiere and William Burroughs, and frequenting The Mudd Club, Danceteria and Studio 54. From the author of cult classic Widow Basquiat, this memoir is a tale of two cities and their artists. It recreates the fury, ecstasy and danger that made '70s Mexico City and '80s New York two of the greatest places to be young, free and alive.
