Pink Floyd fans: Syd Barrett offical web site
 | Syd Barrett Official Website Launch 6 January 2016 |
| Wednesday 6th January marks what would have been the 70th birthday of Syd Barrett, founder member of the Pink Floyd and one of the most influential musicians in British pop history. To mark the occasion, Syd Barrett’s new official website will be launched at 12 noon on Wednesday (GMT). Celebrating his unique life and career, both of which continue to inspire and enthral, it is a unique resource that offers an unrivalled insight into this enigmatic musician. sydbarrett.com The website has been created by those who knew him best - his family and friends. The clean, modern design offers an intimate experience for Syd’s fans, incorporating his favourite colour indigo and offering previously unseen, restored family photographs. Going forward, regular updates will reveal even more exclusive material, photographs and information. Featured songs will receive detailed analysis alongside reviews, essays and images from a range of celebrity guest writers. Syd’s nephew Ian Barrett says “2016 promises to be an exciting year for Syd Barrett’s fans and we hope that in keeping with my uncle’s talents, this online resource will act as a springboard, inspiring a new generation of artists - both musical and visual.” Social Links: https://www.facebook.com/Syd. https://wakelet.com/@ Notes: Syd Barrett was with the Pink Floyd for just three years (1965 to1968), yet when the band released their greatest hits album in 2001 he had written over a fifth of the tracks. Born Roger Keith Barrett in 1946 in Cambridge, Syd obtained his nickname from regulars at a local jazz club who christened him after an old drummer from the area. At the age of seventeen Barrett left Cambridge to study at London’s Camberwell Art School where he was reunited with his old friend Roger Waters. He joined Roger’s band the Pink Floyd and quickly became their main songwriter. The band was named after two Georgia blues men Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Their experiments with feedback and electronic sound quickly made them the hippest band among London’s early psychedelic set. Although still a prolific songwriter, Syd’s experimentation with drugs meant his grasp on reality was slipping away. He didn’t turn up for interviews and started to behave erratically, to the extent that an American tour had to be cut short. In January 1968 the band excused Syd from performing live to enable him to concentrate on songwriting and David Gilmour was asked to take his place. By 1968 the band had parted ways with Syd, leaving him to record and release two solo albums ‘The Madcap Laughs’ and ‘Barrett’ and a single ‘Octopus’. 1970 saw Syd retreat to his mothers house in Cambridge where he formed The Stars with some local musicians though his involvement was shortlived. The following years saw him moving between Cambridge and London, where he stayed on friends’ floors. In 1978, having tired of London, he walked back to Cambridge, where he lived reclusively until his death on 7th July 2006, aged sixty. | |

Ruinart Champagne Presents 2015 Collaboration with French Artist Hubert le Gall
Le Gall’s “Glass Calendar” Sculptures and Limited-Edition Signature Coffret to Enhance Ruinart’s Legendary Blanc de Blancs for US Debut at Art Basel in Miami Beach
— Maison Ruinart, the world’s first established Champagne House, presents their newest creative collaboration with French artist Hubert le Gall at Art Basel in Miami Beach, December 2 – 6. Providing a visual narrative both original and fantastical, le Gall expresses all the luminosity and the lightness of the Ruinart Blanc de Blancs through twelve sculptural works fabricated in Venice’s inimitable Murano glass. Each work le Gall has created for this collaborative effort reflects and represents a moment in time, a month for each work on a “glass calendar”— a year-long journey through Ruinart’s legendary Reims vineyard and its harvest. The collaboration continues Ruinart’s longstanding and ongoing relationship with the arts, and its commitment to commissioning artist works over the centuries, from such luminaries as Maarten Baas, India Mahdavi, Alphonse Mucha, Gideon Rubin, Patricia Urquiola, Piet Hein Eek, and Georgia Russell. For these contemporary artists, Ruinart has been a source of limitless inspiration. Its history, creativity, and worldwide reputation, as well as its constant search for perfection, make it a favored subject, whatever the mode of expression.
During Hubert le Gall’s first visit to the Sillery vineyard at the home of Ruinart, he felt that the origin of the magical radiance of Ruinart champagne stems from the year-round forces of nature. Within these sculptures, le Gall represents the passage of time in Ruinart’s now legendary Champagne locale using both vine and grape as symbols of the cycle of life. When Hubert considered glass for expressing his vision, the studios of Murano’s master glassmakers immediately seemed the obvious place for him to work—their histories as deeply rooted in tradition as Ruinart’s.
Art Basel in Miami Beach 2015 also represents the U.S. debut of le Gall’s limited-edition Ruinart coffret design—a singular vision of another tradition: the perennial design element encasing Ruinart’s renowned Blanc de Blancs bottle. On it, le Gall’s flowing stylized lines are also emblematic of time; interrupted only when the box is opened. This rare limited-edition display case will be showcased alongside le Gall’s “glass calendar” sculpture installation in the VIP/Collectors Lounge at Art Basel in Miami Beach from December 2–6—where Ruinart is the official champagne sponsor—and will be available only through select retailers in an editioned number of 2,800.
Prior to Art Basel in Miami Beach, works in le Gall’s Ruinart collaboration were on view at Art Basel in Basel, Art Basel in Hong Kong, MIART in Milan, Art Brussels, the Venice Biennale, Gallery Weekend in Berlin, and Masterpiece London.
About Hubert le Gall
Hubert le Gall was born in Lyon, France, in 1961, and moved to Paris in 1983. Five years later he began to exercise his creative talents by designing functional and poetic pieces of furniture imbued with fantasy and humor, as well as working as a designer for numerous national and international exhibitions. Le Gall is represented by galleries all over Europe, the United States, and Asia, and his creations can be found in both private homes and museums. Le Gall currently works in Paris’s storied Montmartre neighborhood, famous for its history as an artist residence for centuries.
About Ruinart
The House of Ruinart was founded during the Enlightenment, in 1729, by Dom Thierry Ruinart—a Benedictine monk who foresaw the promising future of “the wine with bubbles.” Ruinart remains devoted to the tradition of a limited production of champagne with uncompromised quality, and appreciates that essential ingredients are the key to the creation of exceptional Champagnes—harvesting only the finest Chardonnay grapes with a high concentration of Premiers Crus. Contained in iconic, transparent bottles inspired by the very first champagne bottles created in the 18th century, Ruinart champagne is stored in former Gallo-Roman chalk quarries that became French Historical Landmarks in 1931, and that were most recently added to the prestigious UNESCO World Heritage Site list. These crayères offer the triple benefit of a constantly stable temperature, a complete absence of vibration, and a perfect humidity level, providing ideal conditions for the aging of Ruinart wines and the golden thread of the Ruinart taste: fresh, luminous, and elegant. Dom Ruinart’s vision and heritage of excellence have been passed down through the generations as Ruinart’s core values. Ruinart also remains a committed partner of the arts around the world and the official champagne of more than thirty global Art Fairs worldwide.
