University Gallery Exhibits Art on Social Justice in Philadelphia CALL TODAY! 610-359-8632 ext. 11
Panel co-sponsored by the Catholic Intellectual Series also planned irst coined by Jesuit scholar Luigi Taparelli in 1840, ‘social justice’ refers to economic, political and social equality —a theme often explored by artists who hope to effect change. In accordance with St. Joseph University’s commitment to social justice, the University Gallery will showcase the work of four Philadelphia artists – Daniel Heyman, Glen Sacks, Sarah McEneaney and Susan Hagen – who examine social justice issues in their work. Titled “Look! Contemporary Art and Social Justice in Philadelphia,” the exhibit was curated by art historian Emily Hage, Ph.D., assistant professor of art, and will be on display at the University Gallery in Merion Hall, February 17 - March 28, with a reception scheduled on Thursday, February 20, from 5 - 7 p.m., in the University Gallery. “A focus on the city often goes hand in hand with social justice issues,” says Hage. “Living in Philadelphia has sparked many artists to take on a range of concerns, spurring them to create socially engaged works of art and to be active in their communities.” Hage will also moderate a panel discussion of artists and community leaders, titled, “An Artistic Lens: Looking at Social Justice in Philadelphia,” on Thursday, March 20, at 5 p.m. in the Cardinal Foley Campus Center, with a reception to follow. The panel is co-sponsored by the Office of Mission and Identity’s Catholic Intellectual Series. “Art has always been seen as a powerful and most effective communicator of justice in the Catholic tradition,” says Daniel Joyce, S.J., assistant to the Vice President for Mission and Identity. “This panel discussion will be a great lens into the social justice issues of our city in our time.” Exhibit Participants: “Regardless of the effect, these paintings, prints, photographs, drawings and sculptures evoke the rich complexity of the human condition, specifically as it is manifest in the city of Philadelphia,” Hage notes. • Painter and printmaker Daniel Heyman’s portraits of incarcerated fathers call attention to poverty and imprisonment in the city. The portraits include interview quotes from Heyman’s sessions with his subjects, which were held in the Philadelphia’s National Comprehensive Center for Fathers. The text, hand-written on the background of the portraits, chronicles each subject’s life experience. • Glen Sacks, who describes himself as a “street photographer,” focuses his work on Philadelphia homicides. He will display photos of street memorials created for murder victims that document stuffed animals, flowers and other meaningful items left by loved ones on-site. His piece, “Naming the Numbers,” which lists the names of Philadelphia murder victims in 1988, communicates their deaths in chilling starkness. • Sarah McEneaney’s paintings are inspired by her commitment to revitalization efforts in Philadelphia. Her works featured in the exhibit focus on initiatives in the city’s Callowhill neighborhood, and highlight her role in co-founding the Reading Viaduct Project, which aims to convert an abandoned elevated rail line into a public green space similar to New York’s High Line. • Susan Hagen’s labor-intensive sculptures feature average citizens, protestors and the homeless in Philadelphia. She primarily uses linden wood to carve her sculptures, then sands, paints, burns or bleaches the surface, covers the entire piece with paste wax and then burnishes it. A single sixteen-inch

Pasión y Arte Presents Philadelphia Flamenco Festival Featuring International Sensations Israel Galván, Pastora Galván and Rosario Toledo March 1 - 16 Drexel University’s Westphal College of Media Arts and Design, Drexel University’s Mandell Theater, Longwood Gardens, the Kimmel Center, International House Philadelphia, WHYY, Temple University and the Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts will all be hosting exciting festival events. Event tickets range from $10-$35 with Festival Passes starting at $90. “Building on the extremely successful first Philadelphia Flamenco Festival in 2012, this year’s Festival will continue to develop new audiences and understanding of the evolving flamenco art form by bringing internationally renowned flamenco performers/choreographers to Philadelphia,” said PyA Artistic Director, Elba Hevia y Vaca. “We are thrilled to be able to feature the artistry of the Galváns and Rosario Toledo, who, by offering differing perspectives on flamenco’s century’s old aesthetics, keep the form relevant and revitalized in the 21st century.” Acknowledged worldwide as a major force in revolutionizing flamenco into a serious contemporary art form, Israel Galván was honored with Spain’s prestigious National Dance Award. His work represents a new vision for flamenco. Galván’s work respects the form’s many traditions, but it is also embraces elements of other dance forms. Humor, narrative, and theatricality are additionally added to Galván’s artistry; purposefully expanding the Philadelphia’s Flamenco Festival, March 1 - 16, 2014, will traditional form of flamenco and speaking to new audiences.

“Frost” Exhibit Presents Work of Amie Potsic & Nancy Agati t is safe to say, this has been a winter of surprises with temperatures plummeting well below what we usually expect for this region and snowfall far above. This cold is actually at the heart of the Schuylkill Center’s upcoming exhibition, Frost. In the Environmental Art Gallery, two Philadelphia artists take on winter as their subject with a show that runs from February 15 - April 18. Amie Potsic and Nancy Agati delve into the meaning of winter through photography, installation, and mixed media. An opening reception on March 1, from 4 - 6 p.m. offers a chance for the public to see the artwork and meet the artists. The Schuylkill Center is located at 8480 Hagys Mill Road in Philadelphia, PA. In winter, patterns emerge from the harsh relief of cold temperatures and heavy snow that illuminate the relationship between ourselves and the changing environment we live in. Potsic explains, “I find winter to be particularly seductive as it simultaneously highlights the stark beauty of our “Endangered Seasons (detail),” 2013, Installation using Archival Pigment environment’s dormant cycle while hintPrinted Silk, by Amie Potsic. © Amie Potsic 2013 ing at the potential growth of spring.” Agati’s work, exploring the ephemeral through use of natural materials, emphasizes the cyclical patterns of the natural world. Agati writes eloquently about the details that are highlighted by winter: “Working in the studio while the snow falls – again. Linear patterns are further defined as I notice the stark contrast of branches against a pallid backdrop.” Agati and Potsic draw elements of nature into their work, giving voice to the natural world and putting it in dialogue with both the viewers and the artists themselves. Potsic’s photographs and installations focus on the intersection of the physical, socio-political, and natural worlds, highlighting the change of seasons as indicators of ecological well-being. Agati’s sculptural installations use natural materials to create forms which resonate with the patterns, shapes, and complex structures of the natural world. Whether it is Agati’s striking natural constructions or Potsic’s photographic installation that transports you, Frost creates a world that is both uniquely its own and deeply connected to the natural world that inspired it. Both artists have shown their work extensively in the Philadelphia area as well as worked with the Schuylkill Center. “It is an honor to show my work at the Schuylkill Center, where my love of trees and my concerns regarding climate change can join the collective conversations within a community interested in protecting our environment,” says Potsic. The Schuylkill Center is thrilled to welcome back both artists for Frost. The Schuylkill Center also welcomes Christina Catanese, new Director of Environmental Art. With a strong grounding in both art and science, Christina has a Masters in Applied Geosciences from Penn, complementing her BA from Penn in Environmental Studies and Political Science. She’s coming to us after a three-plus-year stint as a physical scientist for the EPA, where she has won awards like Communicator of the Year for her Healthy Waters blog. On the arts side, she is a dancer, the founding member of the Nova Dance Company, and creator and choreographer of innumerable dances, including one featured in the Fringe Festival. Meet Catanese and the artists at the Opening reception on March 1. The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education (SCEE) was founded in 1965 as the nation’s first urban environmental education organization. Its 365-acre sanctuary serves as a living laboratory to foster appreciation, deepen understanding, and encourage stewardship of the environment. SCEE reaches over 15,000 Philadelphia-area residents each year with an array of educational programs, including standards-based programs for schoolchildren, continuing education for teachers, and a full calendar of events for the public. The environmental art department sparks awareness of the natural environment with exhibitions of the highest quality that attract, educate and inspire the public. Its wildlife clinic treats 3,200 injured, orphaned and sick animals annually—the only clinic of its kind in a four-county region. For information, visit www.schuylkillcenter.org or call 215-482-7300.

Hagley’s NatureFest Looks for Answers Blowing in the Wind e blown away by Hagley Museum and Library’s 2014 NatureFest on May 3. This year’s theme is the power of wind. Learn about the importance of wind from pollinating plants to creating energy. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is $5 for non-members, $2 for members, and free for all children 5 and under. Use Hagley’s Buck Road entrance off Route 100. NatureFest celebrates the science and beauty of the natural world with fun, hands-on activities for families. Join a nature hike, explore the E.I. du Pont garden, and take a behindthe-scenes tour of the greenhouse. NatureFest is held rain or shine. Outdoor and weatherappropriate attire is recommended. E. I. du Pont, the founder of the DuPont Company, was an avid lover of the natural world. He declared his occupation as “botanist” when he immigrated to America with his family. His family established a tradition of taking a nature walk on the first day of May. E. I. du Pont’s youngest daughter describes one of her explorations in a letter to her sister in May 1828: “The Dogwood and hawthorn are in bloom all around… and their white blossoms contrast beautifully with the varied green of the young leaves, that just begin to throw a shadow over the thousand flowers that bloom beneath them.” NatureFest is held in their honor. For information, call 302-658-2400 weekdays or visit www.hagley.org.

Rubens stressed the importance of maintaining the balance between honoring Philadelphia’s musical past while aiding in the cultivation of its future. “It’s imperative that the Philadelphia Music Alliance continues to equally prioritize the recognition and preservation of our widespread musical heritage along with creating programs which give back to the Philadelphia community through music education,” he said. “Our ultimate legacy rests in assuring that Philadelphia’s musical landscape remains fertile for generations to come.” The Philadelphia Music Alliance Walk of Fame, a living tribute to Philadelphia’s rich music history and a vital force unifying the city’s diverse cultural communities along the Avenue of the Arts, is currently planning its 2014 induction.The PMA’s most recent induction, held in October, welcomed the dozens of musicians who played the sound heard ‘round the world, the Philly Sound, as members of the MFSB Orchestra, the Salsoul Orchestra, and John Davis & the Monster Orchestra; “Dean of American Folk DJs” Gene Shay; producer and label executive Joel Dorn (“Killing Me Softly”); songwriting team Madara & White (“At the Hop”); producer-songwriter-publisher Jerry Ross (“I’m Gonna Make You Love Me” with Gamble & Huff; “Venus”); producer-arranger-conductor Vince Montana Jr., and Macy’s Grand Court organist Peter Richard Conte. The induction of this diverse group of legends, as well as the election of the new executive members of the Board of Directors, combine to further the renewed commitment of the Philadelphia Music Alliance (PMA) to shed new light on the City's cultural legacy and its incredible contribution to the world of music past, present and future as a major tourist attraction. This agenda to recognize more local music greats in all genres is part of the community based, non-profit organization's overall mission to encourage the creation, celebration and historical preservation of Philadelphia music, and the foundation of a renewed commitment to schedule induction ceremonies each year. A brand-new, full-color, tri-fold brochure spotlighting the Philadelphia Walk of Fame is currently being distributed throughout the Delaware Valley.

Long, MD, Chief, Section of Infectious Diseases at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children has been appointed to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s (FDA) Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee. This committee is made up of 12 experts from the medical and biological sciences, who review and evaluate data on the safety, effectiveness and proper use of vaccines and other related products. “This is a great honor, but I’m not surprised,” says Carolyn Jackson, St. Christopher’s CEO. “Dr. Long has worked for many years to improve the overall health of children, with research and direct patient care. Her vast knowledge and broad experience in pediatric medicine is an asset to St. Christopher’s and now the FDA.” Four times a year, this committee meets to conduct reviews of vaccines and similar products, making recommendations to the FDA for licensure. The committee also comments on the FDA’s research program to optimize scientific backing for vaccine regulation. The appointment on this committee is for a four-year term, which starts on February 1, 2014 and ends on January 31, 2018. “Being a part of the FDA’s vaccines committee is an opportunity to extend my service to children beyond current areas of education, clinical research, clinical care and policy,” says Dr. Long. “This is chance to bring optimal vaccines to clinical practice melded with the responsibility of assuring the highest safety standards. It’s an honor to be a member of this committee and I am eager to get to work.” To learn more about the FDA’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee, go to www.fda.gov/ AdvisoryCommittees/CommitteesMeetingMaterials/BloodV accinesandOtherBiologics/VaccinesandRelatedBiologicalPr oductsAdvisoryCommittee/default.htm To learn more about St. Christopher’s, visit www.stchristophershospital.com.

America. Young is the author of seven books of poems: Ardency: A Chronicle of the Amistad Rebels; Dear Darkness; For the Confederate Dead; Black Maria; Jelly Roll: A Blues; To Repel Ghosts; and Most Way Home, which was selected for the National Poetry Series. Young’s The Grey Album: On the Blackness of Blackness, which combines essay, cultural criticism, and lyrical chorus to illustrate the African American tradition of lying-storytelling, telling tales, fibbing, improvising, and “jazzing,” was a finalist for the 2013 National Book Critics Circle Award and on the shortlist for the 2013 PEN Open Award. He is currently Atticus Haygood Professor of Creative Writing and English at Emory University. Young will read from his work Thursday, February 20, 2014 at 7:30 p.m. in The Music Room, Goodhart Hall, Bryn Mawr College. Writing of his work, the poet Lucille Clifton has said, “This poet’s gift of storytelling and understanding of the music inherent in the oral tradition of language re-creates for us an inner history which is compelling and authentic and American.” Bryn Mawr College Creative Writing Program Director Karl Kirchwey notes, “There may not be another poet working in America whose exuberance is so ingeniously and variously grounded in grief as it is in the work of Kevin Young. Remix, blues, film-noir: every genre of art, and every medium, is available to him, and his ambition works at book length.” This reading has been made possible with the support of the Jane Flanders Fund and the Marianne Moore Fund for the Study of Poetry. Goodhart Hall at Bryn Mawr College is located at 150 N. Merion Avenue in Bryn Mawr, PA. All readings are free and open to the public. Readings are followed by book signings and sales. Books from each series guest are also available for purchase through the College book store. More info is available online at brynmawr.edu/arts/cwprs.html or by calling 610-526-5210. The Bryn Mawr College Creative Writing Program Reading Series continues its 2013/14 season with: Francine Prose, Wednesday, March 19, 7:30 p.m., Thomas Great Hall; and Chang-Rae Lee, Thursday, April 17, 7:30 p.m., Goodhart Music Room For info visit www.brynmawr.edu/arts/cwprs.html.

For more information on Gunnar Montana and “HYBERNATE,” visit www.gunnarmt.com. Born and raised in Montana, Gunnar currently resides in Philadelphia, PA. He attended The University of the Arts, graduating in 2011 with a BFA in Modern Dance Performance and a profound interest in choreography and creative movement. Before branching off on his own, he danced and collaborated with Brian Sanders’ JUNK, including the recent works of “Sanctuary,” “Dancing Dead,” and “The Gate Reopened.” His most recent productions have been ”RUB,” “BASEMENT,” and “DRAG ME TO HELL,” as well as scattered appearances in “Bearlesque,” “The Weird Beard Revue,” and “Boylesque.” Infusing movement and visual arts, Montana’s work refuses to be defined. His artistry as a whole is an array of visual art installations, prop-based choreography, set design, costume design, transformation of atmosphere, and innovative movement, concepts, and ideas. He is most interested in conceiving original work.

College Admissions Workshops Offered this Spring resentations of the four-session workshop Understanding and Demystifying College Admissions will once again be held this spring. Originally conducted at the Bala Cynwyd Library in the summer of 2000, these interactive sessions will aid both parents and students in comprehending contemporary college admissions. Topics to be covered will include guidelines and parameters of present college admissions; the process of creating a college search; differences among colleges and universities; how an admissions committee operates and what criteria they seek; standardized testing (PSAT, SAT, Subject Tests, ACT); financial aid; hot topics and current trends in college admissions; and special admissions considerations. The workshops will be conducted by Bala Cynwyd resident Cigus Vanni. Mr. Vanni is lead guidance counselor at Cherry Hill West (NJ) High School and past director of counseling at Bishop Eustace Prep School in south Jersey. A former assistant dean and admissions counselor at Swarthmore College, Mr. Vanni served as an elected assembly delegate for the New Jersey Association for College Admis sions Counseling to its parent organization, the National Association for College Admissions Counseling from 2003 to 2006. He was also appointed as a member of the Professional Development Committee of the national organization from 2007-2010, assisting in the creation and implementa-
P
tion of opportunities by which high school counselors and college admissions personnel can improve their professional skills. Mr. Vanni presently serves as co-chair of the National College Fair in Atlantic City, a position he has held for the past six years. The sessions will be held at the Radnor Municipal Building (130 Iven Avenue, Radnor) from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. on successive Sundays: March 2, 9, 16 and 23; at the Tredyffrin Public Library (582 Upper Gulph Road, Strafford-Wayne) from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. on successive Mondays: March 17, 24, 31 and April 7; and at the Penn Wynne Library (130 Overbrook Parkway, Wynnewood) from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. on successive Thursdays: April 24, May 1, 8 and 15. Sessions are cumulative (students and parents may attend all as a series) but cover different topics and concerns (parents and students may attend any of the sessions independently). There is no fee associated with these workshops and no pre-registration is required. Sessions are hosted but not endorsed by the Radnor Chapter of the PA Association for Gifted Education; the Tredyffrin Library System; or the Lower Merion Library System, and are intended to augment – rather than supplant or substitute for – high school counseling efforts.

nown for an artful blend of hip hop and contemporary dance with a parodic twist, the inventive dance troupe Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. comes to the Annenberg Center this March for a lively and original evening of dance. Two-time Bessie Award winner and Guggenheim Fellow Doug Elkins is “one of the most musical, witty and inventive choreographers of his generation.” (The New York Times) The performance includes the Philadelphia premieres of Mo(or)town/Redux and Hapless Bizarre, two pieces that playfully pay homage to Shakespeare and silent film. Presented by Dance Affiliates and the Annenberg Center, performances will take place on Thursday, March 6 at 7:30 p.m., Friday, March 7 at 8 p.m. and Saturday, March 8 at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 - $55 (prices are subject to change). For tickets or for information, visit www.AnnenbergCenter.org or call 215-8983900. Tickets can also be purchased in person at the Annenberg Center Box Office. Known for an artful blend of hip hop and contemporary Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. opens with Hapless Bizarre, dance with a parodic twist, the inventive dance troupe Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. comes to the Annenberg Center a new work that explores the March 6 - 8 for a lively and original evening of dance. intersections of physical comPhoto/Christopher Duggan edy, choreography, flirtation and romance in silent film. Originally conceived by Elkins with Fräulein Maria collaborators and co-directors Barbara Karger and Michael Preston, this highly-energetic piece has a swinging, vaudeville era flair. Brimming with charm and cleverness, Hapless Bizarre features a cast of six versatile actordancers in Oana Botez’s fun-loving colorful costumes. True to the title, the work explores the funnier side of choreography with hat tricks, eccentric entanglements and near-misses. The program concludes with the whimsical Mo(or)town/Redux, a new school twist on Shakespeare’s Othello and José Limon’s classic modern dance work The Moor’s Pavane. Praised as one of The New York Times’ Top 10 Dance Favorites for 2013 and “one of the most compelling dance creations of this century” (New York Times), Mo(or)town/Redux features a score of Motown favorites Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, eclectic songstress Amy Winehouse and more. Exploring themes of power, love, jealousy and betrayal, Elkins transforms the text of Shakespeare’s tragedy into a dance for four characters and a simple prop of a white handkerchief. Relationships are examined through intimate duets, riveting solos and dramatic quartets that bring new awareness to the classic pavane form, a majestic processional dance from the 17th century. Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. was part of the 09/10 Dance Celebration season with their award-winning, full-length work Fräulein Maria, an innovative deconstruction of The Sound of Music. Dance Celebration Artistic Director Randy Swartz notes that “Elkins engages with humor but always has an underlying serious message that gives his work substance and value. Rarely can you find an artist that entertains and makes you think at the same time.” Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. came into being in summer 2009 as the next logical step in organizing independent dance, theatre and teaching projects for Doug Elkins. Founded by Elkins, Ben Munisteri, Lisa Nicks and Jane Weiner, the original Doug Elkins Dance Company debuted at the 11 O’Clock News series at New York City’s Dance Theater Workshop in 1987, and toured nationally and internationally for 15 years as an ensemble of eight. Doug Elkins has garnered numerous awards during his dance and choreographic career. He is a two-time New York Dance and Performance (BESSIE) award-winning choreographer and a 2012 John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Creative Arts Fellow. Elkins’ choreography has appeared throughout the U.S. and internationally, and he has worked with such companies as Batsheva Dance Company and MaggioDanza. In 2010, Elkins received an Elliot Norton Award for Choreography for his work Fräulein Maria, a loving deconstruction of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s The Sound of Music. Most recently, Elkins became a full-time faculty member at Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University, the State University of New Jersey. Elkins brings his wide range of experience to his work for Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. and his precise choreographic work will certainly be on display at the Annenberg Center. Audience members are invited to stay after the March 7 performance for a talk back with the company. In addition to the performances, Doug Elkins Choreography, Etc. will conduct two outreach activities: a Student Discovery program on Friday, March 7 at 10:30 a.m. and a master class as part of Dance Celebration’s Artist to Artist Series on Friday, March 7 at 1:00 p.m. For information, contact Anne-Marie Mulgrew at Dance Affiliates by calling 215-6369000, ext. 110 or emailing Annemarie@danceaffiliates.org.
