		Following Gorky's emigration to the U.S. in 1920 and his name change from Manouk Adoian (he claimed to be the cousin of Russian writer Maxim Gorky), Herrera establishes the bulk of the narrative around Gorky's paintings, describing what he was working on when and under what circumstances.

		For Arshile Gorky, born Vosdanig Adoian in Armenian Turkey around 1900, painting was "like trying to twist the devil," a phrase emblematic of the heroic struggles of his brief and arduous life.

		As you listen to 20, a collection of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci's early singles, it's hard to understand how the Coral became a critical and commercial phenomenon while Gorky's remain a cultish footnote in rock history.
		In the mid-90s, the Carmarthen teenagers stumbled upon many of the same attributes that have served the Coral so well: a faintly alarming eclecticism that usually coalesces into something in the neighbourhood of psychedelia or folk-rock, a proud disconnection from prevailing trends and a quirky, almost hippyish sense of humour.
		But the magic of Gorkys is also their determined oddness and unpredictability.
