Het is het jaar 1942 en Rocco Raven, een automonteur uit Brooklyn, arriveert op Malta. Hij is de verbindingsofficier van een kleine groep Amerikaanse soldaten en weet niets van de rijke geschiedenis van het mediterrane eilandje - de neolithische grotten, de tempels uit de bronstijd, de forten gebouwd door de johanniters. Wat hij weet is dat Duitsers en Italianen onvermoeibaar bommen blijven gooien, dag en nacht. Het eerste wat hij doet als hij aankomt op Malta is rennen voor zijn leven, het eerste wat hij ziet is rook en de flitsen van bominslagen - en hopen puin. Maar niets is wat het lijkt op Malta. Rocco's kwartier blijkt zich in een bordeel te bevinden, zijn commandant is een ritselaar die winst weet te maken uit de oorlogssituatie, en de Maltezers zelf leven door alsof er geen oorlog is. Ze dansen, drinken, lachen en bedrijven de liefde. Rocco is pas enkele dagen op het eiland als het bordeel wordt gebombardeerd. Compleet verdwaasd doolt Rocco door de straten van de hoofdstad Valletta, waar hij een vrouw door de puinhopen ziet lopen. Zij levert de jukeboxen af die haar neef Zammit bouwt uit het verwrongen metaal en het gebarsten glas die de bombardementen achterlaten. Ondanks de uitzichtloosheid van de oorlog bloeit er een gepassioneerde liefde. De jukebox-koningin van Malta is een intense en betoverende roman. Muziek en bommen, romantiek en oorlog, een jukebox en een geweer; deze contrasten maken het verhaal tot een bijzonder en ontroerend boek over de kracht én de waanzin van de liefde.

The Jukebox Queen of Malta is an exquisite and enchanting novel of love and war set on an island perilously balanced between what is real and what is not. It's 1942 and Rocco Raven, an intrepid auto mechanic turned corporal from Brooklyn, has arrived in Malta, a Mediterranean island of Neolithic caves, Copper Age temples, and fortresses. The island is under siege, full of smoke and rubble, caught in the magnesium glare of German and Italian bombs. But nothing is as it seems on Malta. Rocco's living quarters are a brothel; his commanding officer has a genius for turning the war's misfortunes into personal profit; and the Maltese people, astonishingly, testify to the resiliency of the human spirit. When Rocco meets the beautiful and ethereal Melita, who delivers the jukeboxes her cousin builds out of shattered debris, they are drawn to each other by an immediate passion. And, it is their full-blown affair that at once liberates and imprisons Rocco on the island. In this mesmerizing novel, music and bombs, war and romance, the jukebox and the gun exist in arresting counterpoint in a story that is a profound and deeply moving exploration of the redemptive powers of love.

With honesty, humour and occasional anger, performer Bette Bourne tells the playwright Mark Ravenhill about his brave and flamboyant life. Crafted from transcripts of a series of long, private conversations, actor Bette Bourne reminisces and replays scenes from his life from a postwar childhood,a stint as a classical actor in the late 60s, to living in a drag commune in Notting Hill and being an active member of the Gay Liberation Front. Bette then talks about his touring with the New York based Hot Peaches cabaret group and founding his own cabaret troop, Bloolips, which redefined the term gay theatre by creating their very own unique celebration of dramatic and colourful homosexuality. The piece, in three parts, marks a different series of events in Bette's life to reveal both a portrait of a pioneering, radical individual and a historical document of the struggles and achievements of gay liberation.

What is the function of art in the era of digital globalization? How can one think of art institutions in an age defined by planetary civil war, growing inequality, and proprietary digital technology? The boundaries of such institutions have grown fuzzy. They extend from a region where the audience is pumped for tweets to a future of “neurocurating,” in which paintings surveil their audience via facial recognition and eye tracking to assess their popularity and to scan for suspicious activity. In Duty Free Art, filmmaker and writer Hito Steyerl wonders how we can appreciate, or even make art, in the present age. What can we do when arms manufacturers sponsor museums, and some of the world’s most valuable artworks are used as currency in a global futures market detached from productive work? Can we distinguish between information, fake news, and the digital white noise that bombards our everyday lives? Exploring subjects as diverse as video games, WikiLeaks files, the proliferation of freeports, and political actions, she exposes the paradoxes within globalization, political economies, visual culture, and the status of art production.
