Pianist Matthew Shipp persists as a resilient outsider, maintaining strong ties to NYC's free-jazz community even as he assails its orthodoxies. His strengths lay in listening to his own voice and taking risk in both composing and performing. His abilities are unmatched and appreciation of them is growing apace with the vitality they convey.

Barb Januszkiewicz DC multimedia artist/filmmaker see's her art as to celebrate creativity. Her actions have advocated taking art outside of the boundaries of the (art) system and to open it up to multiple possibilities bringing creativity into all areas of life like that of Joseph Beuys. Her strength lies in her drive to take risks and see opportunities in alternative approaches that answer well those of Shipp. The interweaving of each others gifts promises to offer the  rarest artistic collaborations and expressions.
