Brooklyn's only black-owned Jazz Club and musician-run nonprofit supporting the arts and community since 1981.

New York / Bar

A dark (and decidedly hip) bar on the LES, the only light at Beverly’s comes from the glow of its neon signage. The walls of this watering hole are lined with artwork by local artists, but only those whose art has previously been exhibited in galleries. The drinks are cheap and the music is good, and the vibes are perfect for hanging out, chatting, and maybe even getting drunk enough to start a dance party.

New York / Art

In 1963, the Italian-born sculptor Costantino Nivola filled a playground that covers an entire city block with avant-garde abstractions. In the middle of an Upper Manhattan housing project, there are cuboid cutouts sculpted in cement, a fountain made with two diamond-shaped boulders, concrete play horses, and a sand-casted relief carved high into a wall. In the northeast corner, a matriarchal figure known as “The Nanny” rises from the ground. The artist’s sculptures were built in an era when urban development incorporated art in its effort to uplift communities and express democratic ideals. “A work designed for a public space is less a work of art than a civic act,” Nivola once said. “It concerns the ways in which we live together, and in which we influence each other.”

Paris / Restaurant

Delicious food, great selection of wines and great armosphere, the staff is really nice and welcoming, I love going there for a glass of wine, a few plates to share or a big meal, they make the most delicious leg of lamb

Hong Kong / Place

I almost didn't include this purely for ubiquitous nature of the photo, just see the image results when googling Hong Kong and you'll know what I mean. However I can't deny the beauty of this view from one of many tourist destinations, The Peak, which visitors will ride a 1930s wooden tram for 15 minutes just to take this photo. I also like it for it's architectural aesthetic. I think it's only when you view Hong Kong's cityscape like this, that you realise the density of the buildings, something you might not realise at ground level.

San Francisco / Shop

Adobe Bookshop brings me much happiness. Not only are there a zillion wonderful used books of all kinds, there is the man behind the books, Andrew McKinley. He is the heart and soul, and his wise, welcoming and super fun personality draws all sorts of colorful characters to gather and be eccentric.

Milan / Cafe

Gramm Cafè is a super lovely place, born just few months ago in the warmest part of Milan: Navigli. Great for sharing some moments with friends, tasting great quality cocktails in a stylish designed interior. One of the best drink is for sure "Prete Rosso"!

London / Shop

A very charming little shop with an amazing selection of spices, herbs and grains all stored in glass jars NO PLASTIC! :) You can also buy just the jars if you want to, they are really nice too. Finally a zero waste grocery store in the area. Thank you Charles!!

Paris / Photographer

Linda Bujoli lives and works in Paris Photographer and visual artist, Linda Bujoli studies light and its many variations. Through photography, she captures light’s broad range of effects to visually sculpt a body, a face or an object. She endeavors to construct aesthetic domains in which disciplines are combined to form a single, collective dimension. Driven by the desire to touch all five senses, Linda Bujoli conceived of and produced LAND ME, a multi-sensory work incorporating music, image and sculpture, in collaboration with the musical group AIR. This prior project, exhibited at Espace ArtStudioK, the Parcours Saint-Germain and Palais des Beaux-Arts in Lille, now finds its natural extension in the artist’s current work. Playing with the technical processes of the photographic apparatus, Linda Bujoli delivers pictorial intention that manifests itself through chromatic variations, visible vibrations, luminescent traces and evanescent impressions – resulting in a veritable “writing of light”. Having been invited by the National Audiovisual Institute (INA) to create a livre-objet commemorating Michel Drucker’s 50 years of television, Linda Bujoli now presents to you CALL TO LIGHT, an artistic display that showcases the very essence of photography.

Milan / Art Director

I am an art director and set designer. I believe that there is a strong correlation between the worlds of design, art and fashion. That in order for you to create innovative and lasting ideas you must approach projects with a fluid and artistic mindset, as opposed to a more strategic or business-minded thought process.

Patrick Jacobs lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. He studied art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and is represented by Pierogi Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. His work, including sculpture, photography and video, is often characterized by a kind of pseudo-science or homespun natural phenomena. "When one settles down to a new home, they immediately set out to discover those things which captivate and hold meaning for them. I moved to Brooklyn, New York in 1999 and twelve years later, I'm still writing my own personal travel guide of the city's unlimited attractions and temptations."
