When the Muses are Heard: Creativity Amidst Chaos
הרצאה בעברית
Yaara Kedar invites you to a special evening where we will discover how music, art, and cinema can offer hope in difficult times. Join us on an emotional journey through war singers, inspiring songs, and cultural gems that remind us that there is beauty in every pain.
About:
Wars are destructive and dark events, but often, artists turn trauma, pain, and loss into creation. History, just like these days, teaches us that cultural works created under challenging moments can give us inspiration, hope, and comfort, reminding us that words, colors, and sounds have a healing and necessary power. Yaara Kedar invites you to a special event about the ability of music, art, cinema, and poetry to offer meaning in times of crisis: War singers – from Leonard Cohen to Marilyn Monroe, the poppy flower that surprisingly bloomed from the ruins, the poetry of Yehuda Amichai and Wisława Szymborska, the encouraging role of the mustache, the strange story about tattoos, and also the origin of the yellow ribbon that marks the hope for returning home—musical direction in soundtrack, singing, and playing: Oren Brazilay.
