5 of Series--Genius at Work: WILLY BARUTI, Congolese Painter

Kinshasa, 2003.--In this series of clips, the color sculpture takes on its final volume. Dogs, roasters, birds, Willy's humming and whistling along a song by his also talented brother BARLY BARUTI playing on the stereo in the background--it seemed as the whole nature was bustling in unison with the creation materializing on canvas. And I sat there in awe, restraining as much as I could a bad fit of cough that was dogging me all that summer in Kinshasa... Oh!, I almost forgot: cold crisp Primus beer was omnipresent...
