Sexy sax photo by: marek smejkal Dutch alt-saxophonist Candy Dulfer, on her autumn tour Candy Dulfer & Band 2005, comes to Prague, where she’s appeared several times already to enthusiastic crowds. Dulfer has been playing since the age of seven, and the charm of her craft can be best appreciated at her live performances. She returns to European stages after spending almost all of 2004 in America as a guest on the gigantic “Musicology” tour of the legendary singer Prince, whom she joined for more than 90 concerts and entertained more than 1.5 million excited fans. Before her own autumn tour, she played throughout Japan and at several jazz festivals, too. European audiences can look forward to her “funky saxophone” but also to a special guest – keyboard player and vocalist Chance Howard from Prince’s band. Candy Dulfer & Band 2005, Lucerna Music Bar December 13, from 21.00, price CZK 495 No tabu Blanka Jakubčíková (1971) was born in Brno, where she studied at the faculty of architecture at VUT and at the faculty of fine arts. At present she is living and performing arts in Prague – namely painting and writing poetry. Her poster-like transparent paintings resembling comics are odacious, ironic, sarcastic and absurd, sometimes accompanied with advertising slogans. Her art deals with the problem of gender battles, but also with a Freudian question of eroticism, an open sexuality or sexual orientation. At Gallery Art Factory, you can see an exhibition of Blanka Jakubčíková’s latest collection of “draw-paints”, acrylics and pencil works. Blanka Jakubčíková: Od Krista k Ježíši, Galerie Art Factory Open from January 20, Mon – Fri: 10-18, price CZK 20
