Those are the three keywords upheld by Rolex\u2019s Mentor and Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 Arts Initiative since its creation in 2002. Every two years, four distinguished artists, each in their respective fields, are chosen to guide rising talents. A perfect environment for exchanging, sharing, and above all, securing the transmission of artistic excellence regardless of geographical and generational barriers. For the upcoming two years, cinema (Spike Lee), theatre (Phyllida Lloyd) and visual arts (Carrie Mae Weems) are in the spotlight. Add to this list a new \u201copen category\u201d, mentored by American composer, actor and lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda, who will reveal his prot\u00e9g\u00e9\u2019s identity in early March.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/rolexmentorprotege2021-5.jpg\" alt \/><\/p>\n<p>Mentor Phyllida Lloyd and her prot\u00e9g\u00e9e Whitney White<\/p>\n<p>These four categories will join four other that previously shared the spotlight last year, that is architecture, dance, literature, and music. Eight eclectic categories total, in which young artists were, and will be able to develop their passion under the experimented and watchful eye of these artistic masters. It all has to last for at least six weeks, but more often than not, this period is extended, much to the candidates\u2019 and the audience\u2019s delight. We do indeed have the opportunity to see their creations on Rolex Arts Weekends, and this year, it is happening in Cape Town, South Africa.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/rolexmentorprotege2021-4.jpg\" alt \/><\/p>\n<p>Mentor Carrie Mae Weems and her prot\u00e9g\u00e9e Camila Rodriguez Triana<\/p>\n<p>All those who play a part in the program, and whose names were unveiled during a public ceremony at the Baxter Theatre Centre in Cape Town, will therefore join fifty others who had already taken part in the Rolex initiative. Among the best-known are Nobel literature prize Toni Morrison, directors Alfonso Cuaron and Martin Scorsese, songstress Jessye Norman, and visual artist Anish Kapoor. All in all, a hundred and eight profiles are selected to represent Rolex\u2019s commitment to global culture by helping ensure that the world\u2019s artistic heritage is passed on to the next generation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/rolexmentorprotege2021-3.jpg\" alt \/><\/p>\n<p>Mentor Lin-Manuel Miranda, whose prot\u00e9g\u00e9 will soon be revealed<\/p>\n<p>Photos credits : \u00a9Rolex\/Bart Michiels &#8211; \u00a9Rolex\/Audoin Desforges<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rolex has unveiled its list of mentors and mentees for the upcoming two years of its artistic mentorship initiative.
