Katie Lee Koven, executive director of the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art at Utah State University, shares her thoughts on the “Black Mountain College: Shaping Craft + Design” exhibit.

FROM THE EDITOR It’s a bad time for freedom of speech.

But while the recent “The Interview” movie/North Korea fiasco was somewhat upsetting, it was relatively harmless other than the probable loss of box-office dollars.

But a dozen lost lives in France? That’s a whole other matter.

The horrific shooting at the office of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo on Wednesday has brought together the journalistic and comedic world in a way few other things ever have. Mostly because we all know there is always the

potential that someone may take offense to something we write or say to the degree of seeking to do us bodily harm.

I’ve worked at The Herald Journal for more than two decades, and from the time I started, it’s always kind of been a dark, running joke that someday, a disturbed and well-armed reader will burst through the front door seeking revenge on the editorial staff for a story that they didn’t agree with.

Fortunately, while there are occasionally some very heated discussions or angry phone calls, we’ve never quite gotten to that point yet. Which is why I have a hard time understanding what it must have been like for the staff at Charlie Hebdo to live and work with the very real threat of death lingering about every time they

printed a cartoon that featured anything of an Islamic nature.

It certainly pales in comparison to times when I was worried that a ticked-off, much larger and more powerful athlete might desire retribution for me writing something that they viewed as being negative. Those individuals in France literally risked their lives to provide commentary and humor, and ultimately, they paid a very heavy price for that passion.

I guess you can argue whether or not it was worth it, but as journalist, you certainly have to respect the courage and determination to maintain a long-standing conviction in freedom of the press.

Festival also showcases documentary premieres Sandy Cohen AP Entertainment Writer

Based on the movies set to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, the coming year of cinema is about comedians and coming of age.

Festival organizers recently announced their selections of dramas and documentaries to debut at the independent film showcase, which runs Jan. 22-31.

all mixed up First Mascot Challenge set for Saturday The Cache Valley Fun Park is hosting the Mascot Charity Challenge from 9 to 11 a.m.

Saturday, Jan. 10, at 255 E. 1770 North in North Logan.

Members of the community are invited to come out and cheer for their favorite team or corporate mascot and enjoy some fun play in the process. Spectators pay $5, while for only $15, kids and adults can enjoy unlimited bowling, roller skating, laser tag, billiards and soft play, with proceeds

going to support the Special Olympics.

This past year, the Special Olympics has seen its funding reduced and need our support so their athletes can compete in future events. Numerous mascots are volunteering their time and efforts to showcase their skills and give the Special Olympic Athletes some much needed support.

“Our purpose for creating this event stemmed from learning that funding

for Special Olympics was reduced this year, and caused them to eliminate some of the athletic programs they have usually held, including bowling,” Bill Knopp of the Cache Valley Fun Park explained. “We felt that by bringing local mascots together to compete, it would be a fun way to raise money for the cause.

The mascots scheduled to appear are: Utah State’s Big Blue, the Chick-Fil-A Cow, the Liberty Tax Lady,

Logan High’s Grizzwald, Sky View High’s Paws, Girl Scout Cookies, MMA’s Tiger, Lee’s Marketplace’s Badger, Bowling Pin Man and Cache Valley Pediatric Dentistry’s Giant Tooth.

The Mascot Charity Challenge will use the Olympic scoring method (7 points for first place, 5 for second, 3 for third and 1 point for everyone who competes), and includes the following events: the Jungle Gym Obstacle Course, Scooter

‘Our Lives, Our Stories’ Exhibit continues through Saturday in Brigham City A generation that came of age during the darkness of the Great Depression and the storms of war in Europe and the Pacific lived through these turbulent years by standing tall and united. The magnitude of the personal challenges and the national commitment is currently illuminated in the Brigham City Museum’s national traveling exhibit, “Our Lives, Our Stories: America’s Greatest Generation” which opened Nov. 11 and will continue through Jan. 10.

Admission to the exhibit is free.

The museum is located at 24 N. 300 West in Brigham City. The entrance is on the west side. Hours are from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and from 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday.

For further information, please call (435) 226-1439 or visit brighamcitymuseum.org.

The national tour of the hit Broadway musical “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers” will be in Logan for two performances on Saturday, Jan. 31, at the Ellen Eccles Theatre.

Showtimes are at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at $39 and are available at cachearts.org, by calling 752-0026 or by visiting the box office at 43 S. Main St. “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers” is a highenergy musical combining the classic, physical dancing styles with fun and energetic situations.

Not only do the brothers have to dance eloquently at times with their brides, complete with eyecatching lifts and tosses, they also have fun and unique numbers that you would only see in “Seven Brides.”

One situation includes a complicated and physical dance with axes and another with blankets as Milly gets them to take a bath.

Finding a wife in the 1850s wasn’t easy for men living in the mountains of the Oregon Territory, especially when there are seven brothers in one family. That’s how our story begins in “Seven Brides For Seven Brothers.” Adam, the oldest of the seven, sets out for town to bring back a wife to take care of the cooking, cleaning and mending. In town, he meets Milly, the

Please help us help the Special Olympics by coming to the Fun Park on Jan. 10, or make a tax deductible sponsorship contribution by calling Knopp at the Cache Valley Fun Park at 792-4000.

The musicians will blend classic and modern jazz works with improvisation and tight technique, creating an enjoyable experience for jazz newcomers and aficionados alike.

This performance will also include some of Merrell’s original work, which can be previewed through her website at emilymerrell.com.

Merrell’s voice is ethereal, capable of striking dramatic high and low notes, and yet is also endowed with a smoky, polished, mellow tone. She excels at group singing, but visitors to the Why Sound venue will hear her stunning solo skills.

With such a voice, it is no surprise that her Salt Lake-based vocal studio draws students of all ages and skill levels and her original albums

and recorded songs win awards.

In addition to possessing a talent for composition and beautiful voice, Merrell is a hard worker whose dedication to her craft has included study of everything from vocal physiology to jazz history to technique and improvisation. Merrill holds a master’s of music from the University of North Texas, and this hard-working musician uses her own skills and knowledge to educate others and to engage the public in live performances.

Merrell’s visit to Why Sound will be a unique event: a chance to see Christiansen’s intense talent on guitar meld with Merrell’s brilliant voice, blending into something altogether new and unexpected.

COMING UP

Towne Singers Comedian coming to Eccles Theatre on Jan. 17 Seeking The Towne Singers want you. Logan’s longest run Comedian Paula Poundstone will take the stage at the Ellen Eccles Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 17.

Tickets start at $25 and can be purchased online at cachearts.org, by phone at 752-0026 or in person at the Cache Valley Center for the Arts box office at 43 S. Main St. Poundstone climbed on a Greyhound bus 25 years ago and traveled across the country — stopping in at open mic nights at comedy clubs as she went. A high school dropout, she went on to become one of the great humorists of our time.

You can hear her through your laughter as a regular panelist on NPR’s popular rascal of a weekly news quiz show, “Wait Wait … Don’t Tell Me.” She tours regularly, performing standup comedy across the country, causing Bob Zany of the Boston Globe to write: “Poundstone can regale an audience for several hours with her distinctive brand of wry, intelligent and witty comedy.”

Audience members may put it a little less elegantly: “I peed my pants.”

‘The Hobbit’ tops box office for third weekend NEW YORK (AP) — Hollywood kicked off the New Year on a positive note, with three films vying closely for the weekend box-office title that nevertheless remained with “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies” for the third straight week.

Peter Jackson’s Middle-earth finale took in $21.9 million for Warner Bros. in North American theaters, according to studio estimates Sunday, narrowly edging out the Disney musical “Into the Woods” ($19.1 million) and Angelina Jolie’s World War II tale “Unbroken” ($18.4 million) from Universal.

The weekend’s lone new wide-release, the Relativity Media horror sequel “The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death,” landed in fourth place with $15.1 million.

The first weekend of 2015 gave Hollywood the chance to begin turning the page on a rough 2014 in which box-office revenue slid 5 percent and attendance dropped to its lowest level in nearly 20 years. With a closely contested weekend at the multiplexes, overall business was strong, up 5.5 percent from the same weekend last year, according to boxoffice firm Rentrak.

In its second week of limited release, Sony Pictures’ “The Interview” earned an estimated $1.1 million theatrically. A representative for Sony said digital figures likely wouldn’t be announced Sunday.

The Reel Place Aaron Peck

Not often does the current-event climate and Hollywood intersect at the same moment quite like with “Selma.”

It’s almost impossible not to draw parallels from Ava DuVernay’s Martin Luther King Jr. biopic and current affairs taking place in America. DuVernay’s film would be impactful whether it intersected with the present political climate or not. However, with recent events in Ferguson, Missouri, New York City, and even Utah’s own Saratoga Springs, “Selma” packs a more visceral punch than it may have before.

“Selma” covers seminal historic American events surrounding Dr. King’s (David Oyelowo) actions in Selma, Alabama, which molded the Civil Rights Era, helped bring about necessary civil rights legislation and solidified King as one of America’s true historic icons.

We join Dr. King’s life at the height of his popularity. He’s just received the Nobel Peace Prize, he has regular meetings with President Lyndon B. Johnson (Tom Wilkinson), and he’s in the midst of jumpstarting voting reform in the deeply segregated South. Segregation is now illegal, but that has not stopped Southern states from adopting new laws at a snail’s pace. Dr. King heads to Selma in hopes of leading protests and bringing to light the deplorable way black Americans are being treated. His motives are peaceful, yet stern. He’s determined to overthrow unfair Jim Crow

‘Selma’ is right movie at the right time

Story by Lis Stewart Photos by John Zsiray

The Top of the Mountain exhibition at utah state highlights artwork of innovative college

Classes without grades or exams?

Sounds great. How about a college where classes were once cancelled so students could learn “the art of leisure,” where collaboration of art forms were encouraged, and some of “the greats” of the 20th Century took turns teaching a new generation of great artists and thinkers?

Black Mountain College in North Carolina may have closed 58 years ago, but Katie Lee Koven, executive director of the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art (NEHMA), hopes an exhibition at the art museum at Utah State University helps people understand the far reaching effects of this experiment in liberal arts education.

The exhibition’s uniqueness is that it focuses on craft and design, often overlooked in the world of fine arts because it is seen as an unprofessional or regionalized artform, Lee Koven explained.

“People often don’t look at Black Mountain College as it relates to its influence on craft and design movements in the United States,” she added.

The exhibition, “Black Mountain College: Shaping Craft + Design,” will be on view through Feb. 6 along with a related exhibit highlighting the work of two Utah artists were influenced by Black Mountain College.

Lee Koven curated both exhibits; she put together the first for Black Mountain College Museum and Arts Center in Asheville, North Carolina, before coming to Utah.

The show includes a variety of things to see: Textiles, ceramics, furniture, sculpture, paintings, prints and nostalgia from the college. Lee Koven adapted the exhibit to include pieces owned by NEHMA that were created by students of Black Mountain, which educated about 1,200 students during

a 23-year period.

The second exhibit, “Relational Forms,” has furniture designed by Robert Bliss, a student of Black Mountain and architect Lawrence Kocher. He would go on to get a degree from MIT. Several of his pieces are included in the Black Mountain show, as well, including an elegant chair titled, “Lady Murasaki’s Fan.” Its simplicity, yet complexity of design, is very intriguing.

Relational Forms also has artwork

by Anna Campbell Bliss, Robert’s wife, who studied color theory with a former teacher from Black Mountain. Her paintings draw on her background of mathematics and computer science.

The Blisses live in Salt Lake City; Robert was a major force in the architecture department at the University

of Utah, eventually serving as dean for the graduate school of architecture before retiring in the 1990s.

The show draws on the foundations taught at Black Mountain.

Students were required to take a materials art class and experiment while transforming and pushing what could be done with commonplace materials in art form, Lee Koven explained.

“And that’s where craft and design come into play,” she noted.

Students and their teachers explored all they could in the confines of one craft. Like weaving or ceramics, for example, Lee Koven explained.

The exhibit’s ceramics display features a name well known to USU: John Neely, a ceramics professor. Though not a student at Black Mountain himself, he studied with

Robert Turner, a major force in modern ceramics who initiated the studio pottery program at the college. Lee Koven credits Neely as one of the many examples of the reach of the little college in Appalachia.

Black Mountain offered a full array of courses requisite for a complete college education. Students studied not just the arts, but science and mathematics, and read the classics. Guest lecturers included Albert Einstein and Buckminster Fuller, known for his work in developing and popularizing the geodesic dome.

It was an experiment of sorts in education. Black Mountain College was started in 1933 by John Andrew Rice, Theodore Dreier, Frederick Georgia and Ralph Lounsbury. One of the more influential teachers was Josef Albers, who had taught at the Weimar Bauhaus in Germany. Albers is known for his study of color and abstract paintings. Anni Albers, his wife, was a well-known textile artist who also taught at the school.

The college had a communal setup; students and teachers were close.

Students worked on the farm at the school in addition to studies. One year, they designed and helped construct one of the college’s buildings.

Black Mountain College was run by the professors, and, being a small institution, struggled financially. It finally closed in 1957, after many students and teachers had left for New York City or San Francisco.

The experiment in class structure and using teaching methods Josef Albers brought from Germany, in giving students a foundation to pursue their art forms, had finished. However, Lee Koven said it can still be seen today as it is taught in classrooms and is an influence in many forms of art and craft.

Shared wisdom from ‘The Last-timer’s Guide’ two months. To complicate things further, there are a few months a year that have five Fridays, which I guess, makes it intermittently, trimonthly.

During my 35 years here, I have been the creator and destroyer of many regularly scheduled events. I was proud of all of them at one time. Some I wish I had quit almost immediately; some I wish I had given a stay of execution.

We live in a start-up culture, but let me give you “The Last-timer’s Guide to Everything” so that you know when it is time to get off the stage with dignity.

Do you find yourself

hoping you could use the excuse that he event snuck up on you like Christmas and guttercleaning time? If so, it is probably time to quit. If it is a chore for you to do it, it will probably be a chore for the people you invite, as well.

Are a lot of people saying “that again?”

Really this is matter of inflection that is hard to convey in print. It’s a lot like the difference in the order of inflection between “JUST married” and “just MARRIED.” Are people not coming because “it is too crowded?” I sponsored a couple of events that drew this response. Naturally, within two years the

event was so un-crowded that it had to end.

Do your RSVP requests remind people of waterboarding? The only things people seem to be able to commit to these days are tattoos.

Really, if you want people to register early for anything, you have to bring the price down to 10 percent of the waituntil-the-last-minute price. On the other hand, maybe people just hate French abbreviations.

Is it entropy and implosion? Some events just die a slow oozing death while others implode like the last five minutes of the movie, “The Commitments.” If you haven’t seen the movie, it is

pretty much a documentary of hope and promise that disintegrates into animosity. You will recognize your friends and colleagues (oh, it does have good music).

Have volunteers turned into employees? This is pretty much a sign of “go pro or go home.” Many a joyful fundraiser has disintegrated when some people start to get paid while others are still doing it for the love of the cause. You can either embrace it or go for a walkabout.

Book balances funny, fragile times of Hope

By Douglass K. Daniel can life.

Associated Press One thing Hope couldn’t

At one time, Bob Hope was the hottest thing in comedy, a fresh face with a fresh delivery. Really. He was cutting edge in the 1930s, practically inventing the monologue as a delivery system for jokes. Hope went on to reach the top of every entertainment medium he tried — vaudeville, theater, movies, radio and television — and became omnipresent in Ameri-

In “Hope: Entertainer of the Century,” author Richard Zoglin doesn’t ignore Hope’s insatiable ego and other flaws but also doesn’t allow them to

overwhelm his considerable talents. It’s a finely balanced and detailed biography that explores, explains and ultimately celebrates an uncomplicated man who probably made more people laugh than anyone in history.

His parents named him Leslie Hope, the sixth of their seven sons, all but the youngest born in England. His father was a stone mason who drank too much when he worked too little — and there was never much work. Hope’s mother was the family’s

Hogan delivers clever thriller

By Oline H. Cogdill Associated Press

William Heming is the proverbial quiet man, nondescript, keeping to himself, mastering “the skill of being likable, but not memorable.” Yet Heming seethes with self-righteous contempt for others and a propensity for vengeance and violence that erupts when he feels threatened, or just irritated.

His employees and clients believe the seemingly unobtrusive Heming leads a boring life, but nothing could be further from the truth in Phil Hogan’s fascinating dark character study.

Starting as a quiet tale about an odd man, “A Pleasure and a Calling” wastes little time expanding to a clever psychological thriller about a man full of menace.

Heming has owned a successful real estate agency in a “leafy, bustling” British town for 17 years, selling hundreds of houses. And he knows those houses intimately as he has kept the keys to each and, as a self-appointed guardian of

to him, or don’t pick up after their dogs, or clip an automobile without leaving a note, Heming is prepared to dismantle their lives from neverending, unexplained deliveries to being arrested for thefts they didn’t commit.

Heming’s fixation on Douglas Sharp following a minor insult swells to an obsession on Abigail Rice, the young woman with whom the married Douglas is having an affair. “Simmering with desire and hatred,” it’s time, Heming believes, to permanently remove Douglas so that he and Abigail can be together.

Hogan avoids cliches as the village, has little comhe delivers one surprise after punction about visiting those another. Heming at first seems homes when the owners are harmless, but Hogan shows gone. “I don’t peep through windows. ...

Continued from Page 12 brighten their dreary lives. A lively personality as well as music led young Les Hope to the stage.

Zoglin traces the foundations of Hope’s persona to the decade he spent in vaudeville.

First, Hope honed his skills as a comic dancer, singer and skit performer. He stood out as a wisecracking emcee at theaters, then discovered that tailoring his material to his audience generated even more laughs. (Speed up the delivery in the East, slow it down in the South.) Talking directly to the people in the seats, even gossiping about other performers and backstage antics, gave him an unusually personal connection to audiences. Along the way he picked up a new name: Les Hope became Bob, a name he thought had a ring of “Hiya, fellas” in it.

That sums up Bob Hope. No tortured soul doing battle with inner demons, just a professional yuckster seeking a winning formula for producing applause. Not that the lack of

demons meant a lack of drama in his life. The least perceptive of armchair psychiatrists could connect his threadbare childhood to an unending quest for money, attention and love. The money never stopped rolling in — and with it the means to carry on liaisons with women other than his wife of eight decades. Even in his 80s Hope was racking up millions and keeping a girl on the side.

Without question Hope gave less of himself to his family than to friends and his public.

(He left a daughter’s wedding reception early to take in the Super Bowl in Miami with Vice President-elect Spiro Agnew.)

While overseas trips to entertain the troops fed his ego and enriched his career — those TV specials were moneymakers and brand builders — there is no doubt that Hope gave America’s men and women in uniform a much-needed boost.

At least twice he came close to potentially fatal plane crashes, but that didn’t stop him from putting on shows for the troops until age caught up with him.

Zoglin enlivens his book with scores of jokes from Hope’s routines (he said of President Harry Truman, a former haber-

dasher, “Never trust a politician who knows how to measure your inseam”) and isn’t afraid to point out that his routines Continued from Page 3 could be tired and obvious. a man struggling to shed his Zoglin also offers fascinating high-school insecurities in tidbits about the business of time for his 20th reunion in being Bob Hope.
