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.
