These are dangerous times, friend. Everybody’s up on the stump shouting about the future and their plans for what will be, promising that change will manifest only through his or her personal vision. What about now? What about that moment that exists right here — there — and is gone? You can’t live for the future — it never comes. You have to make your peace with the present if you’re going to have any peace at all.
Learn, Artist! is concerned with right now. The two-guitar, one-bass improvisational band carves out swooping arcs of now, holds them up to the light for the briefest of examinations, and then lets the now combust with dignity and purpose so that something newer can fill the void. Squiggly echoes fold into distant foghorn blasts and become an effervescent haze that lingers no longer than is decent. The future is unwritten, but the present is forever learned.
Learn, Artist! explores the now at 6 p.m. at the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum on the Washington University campus (Forsyth and Skinker boulevards; http://www.kemperartmuseum.wustl.edu or 314-935-4523) as part of the Kemper Presents concert series. Admission is free, and complimentary snacks and Pabst Blue Ribbon beer are provided.

a ship moving along the bottom of the sea, a haunted space ship combing distant galaxies, mother's womb, the ghost of wild horses, nightmares and lullabies....

Tuesday, June 10th at the Schlafly Tap Room Veterans for Peace http://www. veteransforpeace. org presents a free viewing of The American Ruling Class http://www. theamericanrulingclass. org/home/ The American Ruling Class, the worlds first dramatic-documentary-musical, explores our countrys most taboo topic: class, power and privilege in our nominally democratic republic. This feature-length satire stars Lewis Lapham, the renowned essayist and author, and a heavy-weight ensemble cast that includes former cabinet secretaries, corporate mandarins, media magnates, and at least one journalist working as a waitress. The film follows Lapham and two recent Yale graduates as they make the rounds of Pentagon briefings, the World Economic Forum, philanthropic foundations, law firms, corporations banks, and New York society dinners as they attempt to answer the question, Who rules America?
