South African rocker Johnny Clegg rose to prominence in the 1970s and ’80s as the leader of Juluka and Savuka, two racially mixed bands in a time and place where that was nearly unthinkable. Anthemic songs like “One (Hu)’man One Vote” and “Bombs Away” (both from 1989’s Cruel, Crazy, Beautiful World) inspired those working to dismantle apartheid within Clegg’s homeland and fans of Afro-pop around the world. But as South Africa changed, so did the demand for Clegg’s work. He’s continued to write and sing about love and war, but last year’s Human (Appleseed) was his first record since 1993 to be released in the U.S., and his current tour is a rare chance to hear his powerful voice in this hemisphere.

our physical being can shoot off in unexpected directions — yet if we delve deeper, we discover things are not quite so random. Our emotional history, surreptitiously tucked into our subconscious, takes control and sweeps us into a “surrealist matrix.” Pretty cool, huh?

created his own 1950s fashion house around tautly tailored women’s wear. Six decades later, he remains a huge influence on the style world. As part of the PMA’s spring exhibit “Roberto Capucci: Art into Fashion,” Friday’s Art After 5 features a runway showdown among local fashion students, judged by experts like Jay McCarroll, Marla Green DiDio and many more.
