For The Love Of L.A.: Simon Barrad

Artist statement: I created an audio and video recording in my studio apartment – with Kseniia Polstiankina Barrad playing piano of “Ya vas lyublyu” or “I love you” from Tchaikovsky’s opera, Queen of Spades. The aria is a profession of love and support that falls on completely deaf ears in the story. However in the context of and Listen Louder L.A., it is a plea to notice, appreciate and return the love all around us. The video is bare with a black background and an entreaty straight to the listener: “Look at me. I love you. I see you. May we all see and love one another.” Curated for The Music Center by Leeav Sofer. #ForTheLoveOfLA highlights the broad and expansive array of Angeleno creativity across diverse disciplines and geographies. More than 35 artists will be featured with a platform to express their views of Los Angeles that are relevant and reflective of the current time through music, dance and visual culture.
