Greetings... I am looking for a writer to work with on a story having to do with Broadway Avenue in downtown LA. Broadway Ave. is on the verge of separating even further from its past and some of those 'links', those that connect the present to the past are breaking everyday as deals are being brokered to revitalize the LA's 'Historic Core', as the area is called. The project I am looking for a writer for has to do with one of those links that will be broken on the 28th of March. Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-redevelopment/revitalization/preservation, I just see there is much to be lost in the transition, and as a photographer my goal is to document this. It is imperative that anyone interested contact me ASAP for a discussion on the direction of this project and potential outlets for exposure and publication. I am particularly interested in working with someone who is just starting out and is interested in solidifying a name for themselves in the area of urban development, 'street' history, or social/cultural issues of contemporary LA. I am in a simliar nascent position, and believe that for the write person, this opportunity I am advertising would be mutually beneficial. Please email me: alexyy9@.... I will respond to all emails I receive, if you don't hear from me within a day after you reply, please resend your message. I have been having trouble with my email account... Thank you, Lorena Turner _______________________________________________________ Send a cool gift with your E-Card http://www.bluemountain.com/giftcenter/

Don't miss out on the fun and frolic of CONDORS on March 23 at the Japan America Theatre. Call box office for tickets at 213-680-3700. The Japanese American Cultural & Community Center (JACCC) proudly presents Condors, Japans most outrageous new dance theater company, in "Love You Live," on Friday, March 23, 2001 at 8pm at the Japan America Theatre (JAT) in Little Tokyo in Downtown Los Angeles. The performance is part of the first U.S. tour of the wildly playful, all-male group that Dance Magazine Japan describes as "eros with madness and joyfulness." The JAT is located at 244 S. San Pedro St. Tickets are $20/$18 reserved, $17/$15 JACCC Members, $12 Students/Seniors/Groups. "Both mysterious and nuttyIf there had been an applause meter on the premises, the needle would very likely have swung off the high end for Condors." NEW YORK TIMES CONDORS: This crowd-pleasing, all-male "bad boys" of comedic dance theater from Japan premiered their signature brand of sexy, spoofy dance theater to rave reviews in NYC in January 2000. With a corps of "utterly untrained and vicious" dancers, the company consists of a dozen neer-do-wells who perform hilarious and high-energy skits as sumo wrestlers, bowling pins, and smirking bald brides and grooms, among other iconic images. Director/choreographer and lead dancer Ryohei Kondos weightless and razor sharp movement is combined with unique and kinetic stagecraft, taking the audience on a wild, rock and roll ride through pop culture. The company will film footage in L.A.s Little Tokyo for use in their West Coast premiere production at the Japan America Theatre. Utilizing a casual, free-form, streetwise, movement style reminiscent of Stomp!, most of the dancers are formally untrained but all possess unique stage personalities. The groups standard costume is the gakuran, a traditional military-style uniform worn for decades by most Japanese schoolboys. The use of the gakuran within the context of performances that subvert Japans patriarchal male identity has gained them much fashion/style publicity in their home country. The company performs regularly to enthusiastic audiences throughout Japan. This performance is part of their U.S. premiere tour, which begins in New York. RYOHEI KONDO (Director/Choreographer) Ryohei Kondo was selected as one of the top 100 21st Century Cultural VIPs by Japans SPA Magazine. Kondo is credited as the new Messiah of the Japanese contemporary dance by creating his own world of a comedy dance theatre, which overturned the pre-existing concept of dance in Japan. "He may be the Messiah who turns Japanese contemporary dance world into mainstream entertainment." Bridge Magazine. Born in Peru and raised in Argentina, Ryohei Kondo founded Condors in 1996 in Tokyo. He has directed and choreographed nearly a dozen works for the company while also working with other artists and maintaining a solo performance career. His work, "P-kies Summer Concert 1995," was created for Fuji Television and toured to more than 40 venues in Japan. He has also helped international screen and stage star John Lone realize Lones stage show, "Night and Day." Kondo made a major international debut as the lead dancer in Kota Yamazakis "Inflection" in 1994 at the prestigious International Choreographic Competition in Bagnolet, France. He has also performed with butoh pioneer Akira Kasai and such well-known choreographers as Kuniko Kisanuki and Toshiko Takeuchi among others. DIRECTIONS & TICKETS: The Japan America Theatre (JAT) is located at 244 South San Pedro Street (between 2nd and 3rd Streets) in Little Tokyo, Downtown Los Angeles. For tickets, call the JAT Box Office, 213-680-3700, Mon.Sat., 12-5pm or Sun. after 12pm on show days. # # # Selected Year 2000 PRESS QUOTES for Condors: "A comfortable, harmonious world is instantly overturned by the group who call themselves the Condors, a rough gang of bad boys. They are criticizing dance which heretofore exhibited a taste for conventional beauty and emphasis on technique. But rather than loudly critiquing or laughing, they snicker and play on the st

Hello LACN folks, I'm hoping you can help spread the word that the city is about to destroy (for the 2nd time) a mural of Chiapas's heroic Sub-Commandante Marcos (it also shows Zapata). It's at 6th and Westlake and was painted by Salvadoran sign painter, Hector Ponce. Joe Smoke, representing the city, should be flooded with phone calls. His number is 213 473-8346. Last week he told me I could fill out some paper work for Hector to get him a permit for the mural. Now he says that won't do as the owner of the building wants it gone. It's been there for weeks if not months and not a word from the owner. The Zapatista struggle in Mexico has broad popular support. They've just marched to Mexico City as part of their struggle for indigenous rights. I hope there are enough people in L.A. who support their struggle who can be called upon to rally to save this symbol of that struggle, the only mural of its kind in L.A. It was already quietly destroyed once before. Let's not let it happen again. Judy Baca of the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC)(310 822-9560) has been notified and is talking about putting out a press release to the local papers. Please pass this on to others.

LAST NOTES Please remember, if there is a time to invest in a conference and a time to make the arts visible, the Joint Congress is our opportunity to unite to make the work of local arts agencies, the California Arts Council, the numerous artists and organizations who create our artistic heritage and the many donors, foundations and corporations visible and intrinsic to our lives. This is the time for you to invest in making the case for the arts in return for the many grants and support we have all received over the years. See you at the Joint Congress of Arts.

Update regarding mural by Hector Ponce featuring Emiliano Zapata and Chiapas leader Marcos at 6th and Westlake. Thanks to all who called Joe Smoke at Cultural Affairs. I have now learned that the Dept. of Building and Safety is planning to paint out the mural any day. The Senior Inspector is Brad Neighbors at 213 738-5674. His reason is that it has no permit and he can't reach the owner. I reached the owner's representative and discovered the building owner has no problem with the mural. The original complaint was made by someone at the Ramada Hotel down the street who objects to there being a gun in the mural. Since the owner is ok with the mural, I am trying to submit an application for a permit right away. We need people to call Brad Neigbors at Bldg and Safety to postpone destruction of the mural so that the permit application can be submitted by the beginning of next week. Also, letters of support for the mural wouldn't hurt to submit with the application, says Joe Smoke at Cultural Affairs. Please fax letters of support on organization stationary, if possible, to the Mural Conservancy of L.A. at 818 763-7647. Thank you. Robin Dunitz MCLA
