“The character with the large false nose & moustache, represents the stereotyped
image that Russians have of Georgians – loud, speaking with a heavy accent and
with much hand waving. Nonetheless this image represents something serious which
can’t be seen from afar.”

Pilot for a proposed series of interviews by Mark Sanders
with contemporary artists, directed by Mark Logue,

Still undecided about the Chapmans, whether tossers or wunderkinder,
but this definitely attempts to shed some light thereon.
Good.

Will Oldham & Harmony Korine

No More Workhorse Blues
No More Workhorse Blues (2006, 6.4MB, 2:55 min.)

Will Oldham a.k.a Bonnie Prince Billy is a writer/performer
of unusual talent & significance.
Extremely smart, genuine skill with language (in many registers)
a wide range of cultural reference, a sense of being part of a
larger tradition, but also a rootedness –
the mining of a very specific & personal seam.
Then, still, within this – a capacity to surprise, even shock.
An integrity.
Here he teams up with Harmony Korine who matches the
complex richness of the song with a roquefort of a video:-
a sweet rottenness -simultaeneously intensely delicious
& to the same degree inducing a certain queasiness.
