Book Signing | Kristi Saare Duarte signs her book The Transmigrant


The Transmigrant is a vivid alternative take on the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Inspired both by ancient scriptures and relatively new findings, the book explores Jesus's life during the years not mentioned in the Bible. It's a remarkable tale of self-discovery that explores the lost years of Jesus, and a reflection on the lengths to which a man will go to be admired, accepted, and, ultimately, loved. Paul Davids, the director of the movie, Jesus in India, calls The Transmigrant "Brilliant," and a "vibrant living tapestry that humanizes Jesus in a way [that] we have not seen in religious literature since Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha, or Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet." Kristi Saare Duarte has spent her life traveling the world and chasing adventures. Always open to change, she has lived in Sweden, England, Estonia, Spain, and Peru, where she has studied languages, art, and acting, and has had careers in health care management, advertising, and finance.

Celebrate the release of Tony Conrad’s Ten Years Alive on the Infinite Plain, a previously unreleased recording that documents the piece’s 1972 debut performance at The Kitchen. Ten Years Alive on the Infinite Plain is the quintessential work of artist/filmmaker/composer Tony Conrad. Comprising both a film installation and minimalist score for amplified strings, it leaps across genre and medium to connect Conrad's revolutionary structural filmmaking with the experiments in long-duration sound that he had begun in the 1960s. For its 1972 premiere, Ten Years featured Conrad on violin, with Rhys Chatham and Laurie Spiegel performing on instruments Conrad had made. At the release event, the recording will play in the theater alongside a sampling of the associated film projections.

Singing in his native Bassa language, one of 260 spoken in Cameroon, Bassy rose to prominence in his home country as part of the award-winning jazz fusion group Macase before moving to his current home in France.
