Photographers’ different views to be on display

Take any situation and there are always differing points of view that define it. Usually, two people don’t see things the same way. When it comes to Lesa and David Cummings’ photographs of the Bordeaux Water Mirror in France, both husband and wife are in agreement on Hervey defining the setting. Folsom But the two images, Artists in Action placed side by side, are entirely different in capturing the moment and mood. The display of this two-piece photo taken in Bordeaux, a coastal town in southwest France, is one of the features that makes the current art exhibit in JSU’s Hammond Hall Gallery so enticing. But all the pieces draw the viewer near, and with each it’s easy to apply one’s own thoughts and memories. The Visual Arts Society Members Summer Show displays more entries than usual this year, according to Dr. Jauneth Skinner, art department head. Each entry has a message, she said, and it is a show of great variety. Two art students’ works are in the display and viewers will see more photography than before. The exhibit is up through July 7. The differences in vantage points that the Cummingses speak of seem to be a natural experience for them. Often, when the two return from their travels and study their pictures, they are amazed at what they see. “There we were, standing shoulder to shoulder in Bordeaux, snapping shots of the same setting just minutes apart,” Lesa said. “But when we compare the images, each time we see the differences in our focus.” David agrees. “Looking back on them, it’s like we went on two different trips,” he said. The Bordeaux Water Mirror is a popular attraction to tourists and photographers alike. It is a block-long city gathering place with a fountain system of multiple sprays. The result is a changing mirror and mist effect. An ornate 18th century stock exchange building stands tall in the background. “I was interested in the mist, the mystery, and the people, while David had an eye for the building’s architecture and its reflection on the wet paving,” said Lesa. To this viewer, it’s easy to imagine movement by the children splashing in the haze and (since the photo is dated August 2010) to conclude that this just might be the last hurrah of summer.

Trent Penny/The Anniston Star

David and Lesa Cummings hold their photographs of the Bordeaux Water Mirror that are on display in Jacksonville. In another part of the gallery Lesa’s photo entry is historic. Monet’s Water Garden shows lush greenery and a pond on the land where the painter lived in Giverny, which is still a village in Normandy, France. This is the first formal exhibit Lesa has entered. “Thus far, I’ve been simply along for the ride,” she smiles. “I’ve been a photographer by accident.” But after she won two ribbons—first place and an honorable mention—in the recent Gadsden Museum of Art photo contest, she was encouraged to enter the VAS show. The response to the Cummingses’ photographs has been a warm one. Longleaf Style Magazine has pictured illustrations

by both, and David regularly contributes photographs to the Knox Concert Series publications. And, David is the only American to have two prints in the prestigious touring International Print Exhibition of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain. The society is now in its 153rd year of touring photographic art. The exhibit is being shown in 12 European sites. Carol Record’s digital photo illustration is two-fold: It reflects a house where she lived and an accompanying poem. The home, built just before 1900, is abandoned now but important to the art department graduate because it housed three generations of her family. The poem is by Pakistan writer Ayesha Isha, whom the artist com-

municated with this summer. “The poem conveys my feeling of emotional attachment to this place,” Record said. In addition to the exhibits, new design opportunities are in place for JSU art students that the community can appreciate. The cover for next season’s Knox Concert Series’ souvenir program was designed by JSU art student Crystal Stillwell, who graduated this past semester. The program cover was one of several projects completed in the Graphic Design Workshop, a senior course taught by Dr. Jinsook Kim, associate professor of art at JSU. Hammond Hall Gallery is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Everyone is invited to see the exhibit.

When summer and the Braves Lady Gaga goes get you down, just f lip around gaga over Japan You know what they say: Man can’t live on baseball and CSI reruns alone. Not that baseball is bad, mind you, but you need some diversity while navigating the TV summer doldrums or else you’ll get scurvy. Or something like that. Bobby It’s that time of Bozeman year when all the Pop network shows Cultured are on hiatus. No more new episodes of Community or South Park for a while, and no football or basketball make it kind of rough on the couch. But don’t worry, there’s plenty of TV out there for those who know how to find it — because Lord forbid we go outside.

new shows WILFRED Starts June 23 on FX, Thursdays at 9 p.m. It’s got Elijah Wood’s piercing blue eyes staring in this remake of an Australian comedy that is apparently supposed to be really funny. I haven’t seen it yet — because it hasn’t aired — but all the advance marketing videos and everything look really funny and has a lineup of guest stars that include Ed Helms (The Hangover), Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation) and Nestor Carbonell (Lost). Oh, and the whole show is about a dog, Wilfred, which Wood sees as a man in a dog costume. So, there’s that.

FALLING SKYS Started June 19 on TNT, Sundays at 9 p.m. I haven’t gotten a chance to catch the post-apocalyptic alien drama from TNT (I know, it just sounds silly when you realize that this is the same channel that airs a drama about a middle-aged Ray Romano) but I’ve heard some good things about it, and Stephen Spielberg is an executive producer, so you know it won’t be underfunded. Basically, most of

TOKYO — Lady Gaga says that if you want to help Japan recover from its tsunami disaster, come visit. The flamboyant pop star, in Tokyo this week for a benefit concert for tsunami victims, said Thursday in an interview with The Associated Press that she’s making a point to get out and enjoy the city and its food, and that her fans should do the same thing. “I can’t say enough to people all over the world that the majority of Japan right now, Japan in general, is very safe,” she said. “It’s fine to come here. It’s beautiful.” Many performers and athletes have canceled appearances in Japan after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that caused widespread destruction and set off a crisis at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant about 140 miles (220 kilometers) north of Tokyo. — Associated Press

Futurama TM/Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp

Everyone should throw up their hands with the utmost joy that Futurama returns for the second part of its sixth season. Earth’s population has been wiped out and the few remaining survivors have to, well, survive. One episode in and apparently they already want to renew it for a second season, so no reason not to get in on this show now.

Returning shows BREAKING BAD Starts Season 4 July 17 on AMC, Sundays at 9 p.m. First off, Breaking Bad is back and oh so good. If you haven’t been keeping up with this gem from AMC (which will probably be stealing a lot of Emmys since Mad Men didn’t air this year), then forget your summer reading list and get on this. This is one of the most brutal and intense shows on the air. The story of the Walter White, the chemistry teacher who starts making meth after he finds out he has cancer, is unforgiving and we love it for that. White is played by Bryan Cranston, and he just continues to bring an ‘A’ game as this show gets better and better each season.

CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM Starts Season 8 July 10 on HBO, Sundays at 9 p.m. Larry David is back after being gone for more than a year for one of the funniest shows on TV. If you’ve been missing out, Curb is like Sein-

feld (David was a co-creator) turned up all the way and on HBO. It’s kind of improvised, kind of scripted and really funny.

FUTURAMA Starts Season 6B July 28 on Comedy Central, Thursdays 9 p.m. Futurama is splitting its seasons similar to how South Park does, doing half a season at a time, so this is season 6B for them. There will also be a season 7A in 2012 and 7B in 2013, assuming the world lasts that long. After returning from doing the four movies that constitute season 5, Futurama started airing on Comedy Central and things were kinda up and down to begin with. Maybe they hit their groove again, maybe not, but I never turn down free Futurama — or pizza — and never should you.

TRUE BLOOD Starts Season 4 Sunday on HBO, Sundays at 8 p.m. Well, if True Blood and HBO’s new Game of Thrones keep getting renewed, I’m going to have to buy stock in whatever company manufactures fake blood. True Blood isn’t going to be winning any awards, but it’s a good time, even if it does have fairies now. Plus, it’s on HBO, so it’s not like there won’t be gratuitous nude scenes if things start going south.

Jack White, Kings of Leon, The Black Keys, Ke$ha and country crossovers Lady Antebellum and Taylor Swift now share the spotlight and there are vibrant Christian and gospel, punk, pop, folk and roots music scenes. White, a transplant from Detroit and music council member who Karl recently gave the first Music City Ambassador

He moved his family and his business here a short time later. “It’s definitely very encouraging and supportive because the environment that any artist is in starts to dictate the creativity of the artist and the output of the artist. So if the environment is supportive it can be very helpful to the creativity,” White said, before comparing it in some ways to European nations where the arts and artists are fostered and supported through government aid. “Obviously in this town you can see from the mayor’s office on down that they’re very supportive and interested in the idea of Nashville’s musical culture.” In the past, artists like White came to Nashville despite the indifference of city leaders.

The council is even building artist housing. The initiative goes beyond making Nashville more friendly for the average musician. The music council recently partnered with the Nashville Entrepreneur Center, a tech business incubator run by Vanderbilt professor Michael Burcham. The council will pair music industry leaders like DuBois, former Sony Music Nashville chairman Joe Galante and tech business pioneers Tawn Albright and Mark Montgomery. “I’ve been hired by other cities to look at what they do, but I don’t see any other city that has the commitment of the chamber, the commitment of the convention and visitors bureau, the mayor and the public at large putting their money where their mouth is,” said Montgomery.

Dave Matthews takes break from the road Band to play 3 ‘caravan’ concerts across the U.S. By Nekesa Mumbi Moody Associated Press

NEW YORK — Dave Matthews has just started a telephone interview when the shrieks of a child interrupt his thoughts and he has to go to another room to escape the commotion. “It’s not easy to find a quiet place in my house,” quips the leader of the Dave Matthews Band. “There’s a lot of action.” But it’s that kind of action with his 3-year-old son and two 9-year-old daughters that Matthews was craving when he decided last year, after spending 20 years on the road, to take a hiatus from touring. However, the 44-year-old rocker’s love of music couldn’t keep him away from the stage for long, and this summer, the band — which includes Carter Beauford, Boyd Tinsley and Stefan Lessard — is performing in four cities — three nights in each city — in a “caravan” of concerts. The concerts in Atlantic City, N.J.; Chicago; New York; and George, Wash., features the Dave Matthews Band as headliners and includes acts like the Flaming Lips, Ray LaMontagne, the Roots and Dispatch. The acts will vary in each city. “I hope that people will go away from it, probably a little exhausted, but feeling like they had a really special experience,” Matthews said. AP: When you ended your tour, people assumed that was it for a while. What made you decide to do the “caravan”? Matthews: There’s some different reasons. A lot of the guys wanted to play and I love playing with this band. I’ve just been wanting to take a break from being on the road. ... I’m not as up for the crazy tour schedule this year ... but I still love playing music. It does seem like a good way not to live on a bus and go to someplace and see some good musicians play, and then work a little bit. AP: What have you been doing during your time off? Matthews: I’ve just been with my family and nothing else. ... Last year I spent was away from my family a lot.

Bon Iver’s new release has crossover potential BON IVER Bon Iver (Jagjaguwar, HHH1/2) By getting lost inside his own head, Justin Vernon gains the world. Back in 2007, the man who is Bon Iver retreated to his cabin in the Wisconsin woods to make his beautiful beardy record For Emma, Forever Ago. With gauzy production and a falsetto from another time, Vernon came off like a mystic soul man who needed to go back to the land to save himself. It paid off in a swelling indie audience and some side work with a guy named Kanye West, who used Vernon’s voice to ghostly effect on “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” and primed this self-titled sophomore release for crossover potential. It might happen, because the music on Bon Iver is so unabashedly pretty, and because in the closing “Beth / Rest,” Vernon embraces his inner Bruce Hornsby to point out one possible avenue to softrock stardom. And it might not, because on Bon Iver, those mainstream roads are mostly not taken, as Vernon prefers to construct gorgeously sung, muted tone poems that are more about getting lost in a lushly melodic dreamland than making linear sense. — From wire reports

Dave Matthews Band will be performing in four cities for three nights each this summer. The accompanying will vary in each location. It’s hard for me to leave my kids, and it’s harder on me than it is on them. It’s funny, I get a little quieter with time. I don’t want to chase my tail and one day repeat myself and repeat myself and one day have kids going to college and not have memories that I should, because I was too busy doing my thing. ... I’m always playing music and trying to make new sounds, but mainly, it’s been trying to hear theirs. AP: Do you think your break might be a little bit more extended, or do you not want to put a timetable on it? Matthews: I’d like to get into writing again and I think a lot of it for me is just trying to figure out how I can do both, and a lot of people have done it. ... It’s a hard switch, but I’m working on trying to figure out how to do it. I don’t want to stop — I don’t think I really can stop making music. ... I’m not planning going into the studio for a specific month or anything like that. But I imagine I am going to. I don’t see an end to that. AP: There’s a new book, So Much to Say: Dave Matthews Band — 20 Years on the Road. What are some of the things included in the book that might surprise people?

Matthews: You know what’s going to make you laugh? My mother told me there was some book out about us, and that’s the first I heard of it. ... I had no idea. I am so in the dark about everything, which is OK. I’ve always kind of been, I’ve never really kept up with the culture around me, so it’s not surprising that some book came out and I was oblivious about it. ... I have yet to see it. ... I have a pretty good idea of what happened in the last 20 years, and there’s a lot of books out there that are about other things that I would much rather read than read a book that has details of my life. AP: You have talked about trying to do things that might better the world. What are some of the projects you’d like to tackle? Matthews: I think it’s always on my mind and all of our minds, especially when I became a father, about what kind of planet I’m leaving for my children, and so that preoccupies me a little bit, and then opportunities tend to come up because there are people that are more directly focused on more specific ways into improving or sustaining a healthier direction for the planet.

OH, NO! Pixar takes a page from Cash for Clunkers with Cars 2 By Colin Covert Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

With Cars 2, Pixar goes somewhere new: the ditch. Reprising its least-inspired effort (albeit one that has spawned a $2 billion aftermarket in toys, T-shirts and lunchboxes), the studio has rolled out an inferior encore. Cars 2 is one Cars too many. Is it awful? No, just humdrum. Does it look astonishing? Yes, but so do Transformers movies. Will children like it? Yes; they are children. Is it up to Pixar’s standards? It is so-so by DreamWorks’ standards. Saddled with a hectic story, flat-lining character arcs and action sequences apparently conceived as levels for a video game, Cars 2 is all motion and no emotion. The film was directed by John

“Is the Popemobile Catholic?” and mishaps with the toilets in Japan (there are numerous potty gags here, besmirching Pixar’s reputation). In a second plot strand, superspy Finn McMissile (Michael Caine) and his aide Holley Shiftwell (Emily Mortimer) use their spy gear and firepower to bring down a cabal of clunkers scheming to sabotage the race. The first film was a gentle satire of salt-of-the-earth Americans — and by extension the audience — that was executed with aw-shucks charm. The sequel piles on scenes of Mater’s inappropriate idiocy as he becomes the lead character and Lightning recedes to the background. The country bumpkin is pulled into the spy thriller subplot through — sigh — mistaken identity, and there we all are, trapped in hillbilly hell, our IQs eroding by

We expect more than perfunctory time-wasters from the wizards who brought us Up, the Toy Story series and Wall-E. Heck, we expect more than entertainment. We view their films to experience enchantment. This time we get disenchantment. The good news is that Pixar hasn’t lost its touch. Before Cars 2 begins, there’s Toy Story Hawaiian Vacation, a playful short about the toys turning Bonnie’s room into a tropical paradise when Barbie and Ken’s plan to hitch a ride to Waikiki in Bonnie’s backpack goes awry. In under 6 minutes, it delivers more laughs, heart and art than the two-hour film that follows.

Bad Teacher barely passes By Connie Ogle Miami Herald

All legs and hair and eyeliner and attitude, Cameron Diaz makes a formidable bad teacher in the raunchy new comedy from director Jake Kasdan (Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, Orange County). She’s nasty, conniving and selfish as Elizabeth Halsey, a middle-school instructor who cares more about scamming money for breast implants than about student participation or test scores. Diaz is funny, all right, but she is no miracle worker, so she can’t erase the movie’s slow spots or make it feel shorter than its 92-minute running time (it feels much, much longer, never a good sign for a comedy). Bad Teacher is as uneven as that wobbly desk you got stuck with in seventh grade. It’s amusing in plenty of spots but wastes too much time focusing on jokes that are repetitive and exaggerated (Lucy Punch as Miss Squirrel, the goody-two-shoes teacher determined to expose her rival as a drugaddled cheater) instead of rewarding better characters with more screen time (Jason Segal as a laid-back gym coach intrigued by Elizabeth is the film’s secret weapon, and he’s virtually invisible for the first half hour). As the film opens, Elizabeth is saying goodbye to the colleagues she despises at John Adams Middle School (or “JAMS”), happy to be leaving her job to marry a rich guy. But he’s onto the fact that she’s only after his money and dumps her, leaving Elizabeth with no choice but to return to the world of preteen crushes, school dances and long, dull mornings of sleeping off hangovers at her desk while her students dutifully watch Stand and Deliver. Then a savior arrives in the form of substitute teacher Scott (an appropriately goofy Justin Timberlake, who turns out to be a braver comedian than you may have imagined). Scott reveals that his family has money. Elizabeth immediately starts trying to seduce him but, foiled by Scott’s general cluelessness, realizes she must formulate another plan of attack. She believes she needs the breasts of her dreams to pry Scott’s attention from

But when Elizabeth inevitably starts caring about her students’ success — for all the wrong reasons, naturally — and gradually grasps the sly appeal of the gym coach, Bad Teacher takes off. Thank Segal in part, because the guy is always funny, and Timberlake gets some of the biggest laughs in a particularly crude sex scene (though the song with which his character woos Miss Squirrel is perhaps the film’s funniest moment). The movie may not earn an A-plus, but at least it’s far from getting an F.

‘The Adjustment Bureau’ trivializes lofty question By Rick Bentley McClatchy Newspapers

This week’s DVD releases includes four films about people on a mission to change their lives. Unknown, Grade Bplus: A man (Liam Neeson) wakes from a coma to discover someone has taken over his life. Director Jaume Collet-Serra has created a tantalizing cinematic puzzle based on the smart script by Oliver Butcher and Stephen Cornwell. As Neeson’s wife, January Jones is the biggest flaw. The nature of her role requires aloofness, which comes off more as bland. Even when she shows a different side, she’s lifeless next to Neeson, Frank Langella, Bruno Ganz and Diane Kruger. Consider Jones’ work a bump in a brilliant mystery. The Adjustment Bureau, Grade C: A politician (Matt Damon) discovers that life is often changed by a greater power. Emily Blunt co-stars.

The Adjustment Bureau ponders the theological question of whether everything we do is predestined or subject to free will. It’s a

lofty question that gets trivialized by an action story that tries to build suspense out of running down streets and going through doors. The Eagle, Grade Cminus: Two men go beyond the edge of the known world. Channing Tatum, Jamie Bell star. The Eagle takes a less barbaric approach with its focus on honor and family. But the tactic fails because in between the emotional moments are scenes as cold and barren as the Scottish Highlands in winter. Elektra Luxx, Grade Bminus: Carla Gugino turns in a superb performance in this story of a famous porn star who wants to lead a less erotic life. Gugino brings just the right mix of sexuality and sensibility to make the movie work. Director/writer Sebastian Gutierrez should have focused on Gugino’s story more because his multiple storylines and quirky artwork never completely comes together.

‘Duke Nukem’ just an ugly, mean-spirited mess By Lou Kesten Associated Press

There’s a sequence in “Duke Nukem Forever” (2K Games, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, $59.99; PC, $49.99) that’s destined to be remembered as one of the all-time low points in the history of video games. It takes place in the Hive, a sort of alien incubator. The Hive is filled with naked human women who have been abducted and impregnated by the aliens. When Duke — the “hero” — accidentally kills one of the women, he makes an extremely tasteless joke. Duke eventually stumbles upon two women. They beg for their lives. Duke responds with an F-word-based pun and watches as the two women explode. I’m not a squeamish person, but there’s a point at which even the strongest stomach says enough is enough. Unfortunately, I had to keep playing “Duke Nukem Forever” — and while it never again reaches that low, there’s nothing that justifies that level of sadism and misogyny. You may be familiar with the long, strange history of “DNF.” It had been in development since the mid-1990s — the adolescent years of the first-person shooter, before “Halo” and “Call of Duty.”

knocks you off your feet, so you have to hide from her while your “ego” (this game’s equivalent of health points) recovers. That’s right: During one of the core battles in “DNF,” the hero — established as the toughest, most fearless hero Earth has ever seen — spends most of the time hiding. And if Duke runs out of ego (which he will, often), you’re subjected to a 30-second-plus loading screen. Pile up enough of those and you’ll eventually decide the limited amount of “fun” you’re having isn’t worth the aggravation. Survive the alien queen and you’re treated to a pointless fetch quest in which you have to find three items in a strip club. Your reward? The creepiest lap dance ever. All of which left me wondering: Who is Duke Nukem? The character was established in the ‘90s as a parody of two-fisted 2K Games photo action heroes like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jean-Claude Van Damme. But during Last year, it was finally rescued from the day shooter if they were better executed. Duke’s decade-and-a-half in limbo, those scrapheap by Gearbox Software, the studio Instead, when you finally get to do sometargets became toothless, and the gags behind 2009’s superb role-playing shooter thing fun — like driving Duke’s monster here about contemporary stars like Chris“Borderlands.” truck, the Mighty Foot — the game grinds What Gearbox has assembled is a to a halt by forcing you to stop and find gas. tian Bale and Justin Timberlake fall flat.
