Native American Director Introduces Mozart’s ‘Magic Flute’ To Woodlands
Chagall ‘Flute’ Exhibit Complements Glimmerglass Festival’s Centerpiece CHAGALL/From B1 Murdock, The Fenimore Art Museum’s director of exhibitions. “The rest of the costumes are very classical shapes, but his costume was inspired by the opening of India. “It perfectly represents that time period,� she said. Eight Chagall-designed costumes and four masks went on display Wednesday, April 1, as The Fenimore opened for the season. It’s the fourth summer collaboration with the Opera. “We collaborate to reach a wider audience,� said Todd Kenyon, NYSHA public relations director. “If you come to Cooperstown and you’re an opera lover, an exhibit like this makes the trip that much more important.� “The more we collaborate, the more it benefits everybody,� said Murdock. “You can experience the arts
at large. You see this exhibit and you say, ‘Let’s go see the production,’ or vice versa.� When Zambello announced that the festival would perform “The Magic Flute,� Murdock reached out to the Metropolitan Opera. “Lo and behold, they had these costumes!� she said. Chagall, the early modernist who worked in virtually every artistic medium – painting, stained glass, ceramic and tapestries – designed the costumes in his style: asymmetrical and layered with color. “He has a very dense type of illustration and he transferred it onto these costumes,� said Murdock. “There’s a face on the hem of the magician Sarastro’s cloak that really imparts his style.� The costumes are heavyweight silk, cotton and polyester; the masks are paper

A production of “The Tempestâ€? at the Brooklyn Lyceum launched her professional career, and since 2012 she has been artistic director at the Mad & Merry Theatre Company in New York. Among other honors, she received the White House Champion For Change Award. To recast “The Magic Fluteâ€? as a Native American opera proved problematic. “I’m against red-face,â€? the director said, and simply couldn’t find an indigenous cast. (During the opera’s development, however, set designer Hourie discovered previously unknown Native American roots in Canada.) In addition to the cast, a Native American opera would have to be built around a “point of view missing from American stories. What we see is stereotypes. What I am concerned about is empowering the community to make sure our stories are set in a way that liberates and humanizes us. “In very subtle ways, ‘Magic Flute’ brings up elements of that. But it still is ‘The Magic Flute.’ Ultimately, ‘The Magic Flute’ is going to be a very Western story.â€?

As Scientists Explore Her Brain, Lonni Sue Johnson Paintings In 2 Exhibits LONNI, From B1 minute or two,” wrote Zalewski. “Once an event slips her mind, it’s gone for good.” Before her illness, Johnson lived on a farm near Middlefield Center, providing artwork weekly to the New York Times and occasional covers to the New Yorker. She kept a biplane at her farm, and wrote a semi-weekly column, “An Aerial Perspective,” for The Freeman’s Journal. Immediately after her illness, she showed no interest in creating art again. But slowly, recuperating in a nursing home back in her hometown, Princeton, N.J., she began to draw again, creating gridded puzzles filled with artwork. In one example, a puzzle shaped like a coat hanger is quickly filled with words like “sweater” and “skirt.” Her caregivers, sister Aline
and mother Maggie, credit her “puzzle world” with helping her retain her extensive vocabulary. “I’m so pleased that she’s drawing more deeply,” said Lonni’s friend Ellen Tillapaugh, Cooperstown’s deputy mayor and an art restorer. “The whimsical element of her work has returned. I saw her show at the Waters Museum in Baltimore, and it was more linear, just alphabet letters. Those whimsical elements were such a part of her artwork before she got sick.” Nicholas Turk-Brown, a cognitive neuroscientist at Princeton, is studying Johnson’s amnesia in hopes of learning more about memory disorders, Zalewski reported. He has a theory that the hippocampus builds up a model of the world, which a person then relies on to make predictions
about a similar situation based on past events, and Johnson’s case could help prove his theory. Last August, Turk-Brown and four other researchers published a paper reporting that she couldn’t detect patterns in shapes, sounds or scenes that unfolded over time, proving that statistical learning seems to require that hippocampus. “Though they have met some 30 times, Johnson continued to regard him as an amiable stranger,” wrote Zalewski. In reading the article about her friend, Tillapaugh noted that her personality was beginning to show through again. “She was always able to find the bright spots,” she said. “As I was reading about her, I could see her positive, cheerful personality shining through again.” It’s a story that fascinates
nearly everyone who hears it. Mike Lemonick, a science writer for Time, ran into Lonni’s sister, a former classmate, walking down a sidewalk in Princeton. In small talk, he learned about Johnson’s illness. “I was in the high school band, so I knew her through her music,” he said. “She was such a creative and accomplished woman.” Intrigued, Lemonick co-authored the profile in Time magazine in 2013 and is currently working on a narrative non-fiction book
about his former classmate. “This book came from that conversation on the street.” The book, working title “The Woman Who Lost Herself,” intersects the story of Johnson’s life with the unfolding science of memory. “I want to introduce readers to her so they can see what was lost,” he said. “The Woman Who Lost Herself” is forthcoming from Doubleday in Spring 2017. An exhibit of her work both pre- and post- illness, “Puzzles of the Brain: An
Artist’s Journey Through Amnesia” was shown at the Morvan Museum in New Jersey, as well as the Walters. “I’d love to see it come to Cooperstown,” said her friend Ellen Levine. But to Tillapaugh, who hasn’t seen Johnson since she moved from Cooperstown, the article was an uplifting source of news. “It’s good to see her evolving a little,” she said. “She’s so bright; it doesn’t surprise me that she’s progressed as much as she has.”
