EXHIBITION

“Ring the bells that still

can ring/Forget your

perfect offering/There

is a crack, a crack in

everything/That’s how

the light gets in.” These

lines from his song “An-

them” are the inspiration

for “Leonard Cohen: A

Crack in Everything”, an

exhibition at the Jewish

Museum in New York.

The Canadian singer

and poet (1934–2016)

thrilled — and infuriat-

ed — millions during his

lifetime. This exhibition,

which includes record-

ings of his songs as well

as interviews, videos

and photos, originated

in Cohen’s hometown of

Montreal, at the Musée

d’art contemporain. It is

open until 8 September.
