The girl in the centre is dreamy Lily, whose latest failed love affair forms the purpose of the weekend, as Lily's friends set out to help her ensnare an unwitting father for her unborn child. Next to her is Norman, a Marxist romantic hell-bent on seducing his milk-white hostess; behind them is old, persecuted Shebah; and, slightly apart, the young man on whom all hopes are pinned: quiet, pleasant Edward.

Con New Wave si definisce un movimento musicale e artistico incredibilmente eterogeneo, sviluppatosi tra la seconda metà degli anni Settanta e i primi Ottanta: difficile immaginare qualcosa in comune tra i Duran Duran di Rio e i Joy Division di Love Will Tear Us Apart, eppure c’è: sfruttando l’energia, gli stimoli e il dinamismo ancora in circolazione del punk, numerose band hanno scelto di reinventare estetiche e suoni, creando così un’onda musicale nuova e multiforme.

James Harmon has always had a passion for ambitious causes. As a banker, he successfully advised corporations, like Starbucks, and helped them to become cultural institutions. Dabbling in the movie and music industries, he found meaning in funding the art he felt would make people happy and add to the public good. His unique perspective on investment led him to the Clinton White House as head of EXIM Bank and, eventually, to Egypt, where he represented the State Department shortly after the Arab Spring. Still ​"up and doing," today he co-chairs the board of the World Resources Institute.

Separation from family and friends during ’Pandemic 2020’ has made me feel empty and unable to socialize. In March, I started buying flowers as a way of adding a little bit of outside in my home. I would sip my boozy coffee while thinking about how much an ambivert like me missed chatting with people and absorbing their energy. After weekly posts of my coffee and flowers, my network encouraged me to create a space in which we can chat and reconnect the way we do over cocktails. Thus, ’Weekend Coffee Guh’ was born.

It was Benjamin Franklin who came up with the list - temperance, silence, order, resolution, frugality, industry, sincerity, justice, moderation, cleanliness, tranquility, chastity, humility. Writer and visual artist Teresa Jordan wondered if Franklin's perhaps antiquated notions of virtue might offer guidance to a nation increasingly divided by angry righteousness. She decided to try to live his list for a year, focusing on each virtue for a week at a time and taking weekends off to attend to the seven deadly sins.
