The American bass-baritone Davóne Tines, hailed as a rock star of classical music, returns to Bozar with an extraordinary recital alongside his ensemble, The Truth. In this performance, Tines transcends traditional recital boundaries, blending opera, lieder, spirituals, and protest music to convey a deeply personal narrative.
Let’s discuss all this during Sofa Session #1. Sofa Sessions is a new series of intimate, intergenerational discussions launched on the occasion of the When We See Us exhibition.
With your ticket for the Sofa Session, you can visit the exhibition When We See Us at you own pace between 6:30pm and 7:30pm.
How have artists from Africa and its vast diaspora depicted daily life over the past century? Koyo Kouoh, Executive Director and Chief Curator of Zeitz MOCAA in Cape Town, and her team have sought to answer this question with a landmark exhibition. Bozar proudly presents this vast kaleidoscope of Black figurative painting from the 1920s to the present day.
With cultural journalist Clarice M.D. Gargard, Sofa Session #1 offers an intimate opportunity to explore his artistic practice and discover how he harmonizes the diverse facets of his multidisciplinary artistic practices and engagement in the everyday.
Davóne Tines will perform the remarkable Recital No. 2: Robeson, accompanied by his band The Truth, on February 8 at 8 pm at Bozar.
