Pollock & de Kooning $500 Mil Sale

By Jessica Mackin

contemporary art ever sold.

Here, we take a look back at both artists, and the small hamlet of Springs where they created a rich artistic history.

Springs is known as the epicenter of the abstract expressionist movement, with artists like Pollock, de Kooning, Lee Krasner, and John Ferren living and creating in the hamlet. The Post-World War II art movement put New York on the map as the center of the western art world.

Many artists were attracted to the natural light and the area’s rural nature.

Property values in Springs were also lower than those closer to the ocean in East Hampton.

Both Pollock and de Kooning were a part of The New York School, an informal group of American artists (painters, poets, dancers, musicians)

The largest sale of contemporary art ever made was reported last week.

And the artists both lived and worked in Springs.

Billionaire Chicago-based hedge funder Ken Griffin is said to have purchased the artwork of abstract expressionists Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning from David Geffen’s foundation for the sum of $500 million in a private sale.

The deal is a record for both artists, and the largest sale of contemporary art of all time. The works of art purchased were de Kooning’s 1955 oil on canvas “Interchanged� and Pollock’s 1948 canvas “Number 17A.� Both paintings are now on loan to the Art Institute of Chicago.

The de Kooning piece is believed to be the most expensive work of

in the mid 1900s in New York City.

Pollock was known for his individual style of drip painting. In 1945, he married the painter Lee Krasner and moved out of the city to Springs. With the help of art collector Peggy Guggenheim, they bought a wood-frame house and barn at 830 Springs Fireplace Road. The barn was converted into Pollock’s studio.

This space is where he perfected his technique, with which he is permanently identified. Pollock enjoyed considerable fame and notoriety as a major artist of his generation.

Pollock struggled with alcoholism.

He died in an alcohol-related car crash on Springs Fireplace Road in 1956. The 2000 film Pollock, depicts the story of his life, with Ed Harris as the title character. The film was shot in Springs and includes landmarks such as Pollock’s house and studio and the

Springs General Store. “Every so often, a painter has to destroy painting. CĂŠzanne did it.

Picasso did it with Cubism. Then Pollock did it. He busted our idea of a picture all to hell. Then there could be new paintings again,� de Kooning once said of Pollock, according to www.artsy.net.

The Pollock-Krasner House and Studio is now run by Stony Brook University and open to the public for tours, which include Pollock’s studio where paint splattered on the floor and walls evoke Pollock’s signature work.

According to de Kooning’s obituary in the New York Times he had moved to East Hampton to escape interruptions that came with his escalating fame. He had first come to Springs in 1948 to visit Pollock and Krasner. “I like to go out when I feel like it, maybe for an hour in the morning and again in the afternoon, and I like to ride around without being bothered,� said de Kooning, speaking of the hamlet.

De Kooning led the 1950s art world to a new level with his abstract paintings. He “never fully abandoned the depiction of the human figure� stated theartstory.org. His well-known Woman series represents some of his most recognized works. “From 1940 to the present, Woman has manifested herself in de Kooning’s paintings and drawings as at once the focus of desire, frustration, inner conflict, pleasure,� wrote art critic Harold Rosenberg.

The female figure was a significant symbol for de Kooning’s art, career, and life. In 1943 he married Elaine de Kooning, also an abstract expressionist.

De Kooning died in 1997 at the age of 92 in East Hampton.

Both Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning were major contributors to our local history. Springs continues to be an art hub today with frequent exhibitions at Ashawagh Hall, The Pollock-Krasner House, and The Fireplace Project. The area is home to an array of artists, both established and up-and-coming.

BCMF Spring Broadway

C-5

Reporting From

By Isa Goldberg

Fiddler On The Roof

By Jessica Mackin

After The Bridgehampton C h a m b e r M u s i c F e s t i v a l ’s successful first “BCMF Spring” last year, the decision was made to expand the series from two concerts to three this year. Marya Martin, the festival’s founder and flutist who also performs in two of the programs, points to local support of the festival for its success.

“My heartfelt belief that East End audiences would embrace a series of spring concerts was confirmed last season,” said Martin, “and their over whelming support has allowed us to expand this year’s offerings. I am touched by the wonderful reaction from the community.”

Harpsichordist Kenneth Weiss is featured in the first concert on Saturday at 6 PM at the Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church. Weiss, one of the world’s most prominent harpsichordists, is a native New Yorker whose parents built a house in Montauk when he was 12 years old.

His engagement with the BCMF since 2014 is particularly meaningful to him, as it combines the world-class music-making that is his life’s work with the part of the world that feels like home to him.

He is based in Europe, but tries to spend as much time as he can in Montauk, always eager to meet more of the creative people who populate the East End – and he particularly appreciates how different, and special, a BCMF concert experience can be.

“People listen to music differently” when they are not in the city, he observes. The slower pace “takes concert-going back to what it used to be.”

The three programs of BCMF

Spring 2016 are “Bach’s World,” revolving around the life and times of Johann Sebastian Bach on Saturday; the Miró Quartet, returning to the spring series, performing Beethoven and Ginastera on April 9; and a program of chamber music gems by Haydn, Mozart, and Schubert on May 14.

The artists, in addition to Miró, Martin and Weiss, are the festival’s hallmark mix of esteemed BCMF veterans and bright young talent: violinist Ani Kavafian, who performed at the first festival in 1984, and cellists Peter Wiley and Edward Arron, alongside up-and-coming violinists Bella Hristova and Tien-Hsin Cindy Wu, and pianist Juho Pohjonen.

A student ticket price of $10, introduced last spring, will again be available. New this year is discounted pricing for subscribers to the threeconcert series. For subscriptions, single tickets priced at $40 and $50, and information on student tickets, visit www.bcmf.org or call 212-7419403.

The BCMF’s 33rd summer season, which will take place in July and August 2016, will be announced in May.

Director Bartlett Sher brings a welltextured sense of drama to this revival of Fiddler on The Roof at The Broadway Theatre. In a production that feels somewhat slow paced for a musical comedy, Sher’s Fiddler evokes a sense of loss, of the need to leave behind a life that has been uniquely our own.

For many people, there is nothing in the American songbook that speaks to “Tradition” as memorably as Fiddler.

Written by Joseph Stein, and premiering on Broadway in the early ‘60s, the play is essentially an expression of the Jewish immigrant experience. And as staged here, the forced exodus of the Jews from their beloved Anatevka brings to mind the loss of the ancestral estate in Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard.

It is an emotionally effecting production, with Danny Burstein as the humorous, troubled, but loving patriarch, Tevya, and Jessica Hecht as his heckling, albeit caring, wife.

Joined by an ensemble of actors who blend beautifully, Jerry Bock’s and Sheldon Harnick’s music and lyrics remain delightfully fresh, as is Hofesh Schechter’s choreography, based on the original by Jerome Robbins.

Michael Yeargan’s minimalist set with beautiful painted backdrops portrays the ongoing life of this small Russian village -- fading into the distance, while Donald Holder’s lighting creates the darkness that eventually engulfs it.

Levity And Fun

The Bedlam Theater’s production of Jane Austin’s Sense and Sensibility, adapted for the stage by Kate Hamil, at the Judson Gym, exudes energy and wit. Staged in an open space, fishbowl style, with the audience overlooking the action, the show flaunts the kind of innovative stagecraft that makes Austin’s tale feel as sassy today as it conceivably was then. Indeed, her satire about “people making such a ta doo about money and greatness” still rings true.

As helmed by Eric Tucker, the narrative -- a spinning wheel of rumors and chatter -- unfolds, assisted by set

(& Sometimes Off)

pieces on wheels that the actors move as they create each scene. In a tale that is rife with romantic deceptions and duplicity, not to mention poor judgment, several of the actors play multiple roles.

To that end, Jason O’Connell gives an outstanding performance as the spineless, unfulfilled Edward Ferrars as well as his brother, a hopelessly spoiled nincompoop. As the Dashwood sisters, Andrus Nicols as the sensible sister Elinor and Kate Hamil as the romantically confused Marianne, are also exceptional.

The production plays like a romp, rife with Victorian references and camp wit about our social mores.

It’s Another World

Unlike like the planet Mars with a famished Matt Damon fighting for his survival in the movie The Martian, the world of I And You, at 59E59 Theaters, has the banal appearance of a teenager’s bedroom. Indeed, most of this 90-minute drama, performed without an intermission, feels entirely too obvious.

Caroline (Kayla Ferguson) and Anthony (Reggie D. White), two adult-looking teenagers, address the conflicts of race and gender while discussing a homework assignment they can’t resolve. Anthony’s penchant for the poetr y of Walt Whitman doesn’t necessarily sit well with Caroline. Her reticence confuses him. Were it not for Lauren Gunderson’s use of poetic language, one would be at a loss to ascertain why these two kids hang on to each other.

Less loving toward one another than “David and Lisa,” in that titular drama, Caroline and Anthony, however, remain true to their quest -- to be true to themselves, regardless of their troubling environment. Helmed by Sean Daniel, the story, at the end, ignites in a flash of revelation that brings relief from planetary distress.

Broadway By The Year

Raconteur Scott Siegel explores the history of The Great White Way through song at Town Hall, for the 16th season. On Monday, he brought the musicals of the 1930s by Porter, The Gershwins and Rodgers & Hart to life with Broadway songbirds Emily Skinner and Tonya Pinkins, among others.

The series continues on March 28 with Karen Akers and Marilyn Maye, and a cast of Broadway stalwarts illuminating the songbooks of the 1950s with works by Lerner & Lowe, Rodgers & Hammerstein, and other American masters. On May 23 it’s the ‘60s, featuring the incorrigible Bill Irwin, and on June 20, Broadway by the Year celebrates the musicals of the ‘70s, from Sondheim to Hamlish to Coleman. It promises to be, as always, a starry starry season.

The ARIES (Mar. 20 - Apr. 20) Realize your highest ideals through your actions. You must bring about the changes you want to happen in the world. When we are grateful for the many blessings in our life, angels send us more of them.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 21) Enjoy being independent. Self-reliant people who seek to understand and support each other make the best partner. When we embrace love, it embraces us back in miraculous forms both seen and unseen.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 22) To be a good leader, you must know how to follow. If you put the needs of the group ahead of your own, you will succeed. Focus and clarity comes from the practice of being one-pointed in your attention. Breathe in discipline as an enjoyable daily ritual.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Learn valuable lessons by studying the past.

The best way to change the future is to let the past guide your actions today. All things great and small flow and grow and follow their destiny. Breathe in the ability to go with the flow.

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 23) Be patient in the face of delay and obstacles.

Patience is a great teacher. It is a sign of maturity and wisdom. Enlightenment comes from understanding the dualities of life. We are each but a speck in this universe and yet, to each of us, its center.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23) Enjoy exercising, eating healthy foods and doing what is good for you. Put your fear of the unknown aside and embrace positive change. When life overwhelms us, it is time to get outside and touch the earth to ground ourselves, reestablishing our essential unity with nature.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 - Oct. 23) Forgive yourself and those trying to improve.

Forgiveness is an essential quality of a truly successful person. Though we all

suffer life’s challenges, it is equally true that almost all of us are more fortunate than others in some way.

By Miles X. Logan

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22) Discard what has outlived its usefulness.

If you want new people and ideas to come into your life, you must make room for them. Each time we change ourselves, the whole world is changed.

Breathe in the ability to see what needs to be changed.

It’s inspiring – some will argue it’s propaganda; it is what it is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) Have faith in miracles to bless and protect you. The miracles of everyday life suggest that other miracles are all around us. When we open ourselves up to the truth, we show real faith -- and then miracles can happen.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20) Enjoy being generous. Those who are cheap are also petty and stingy with their love. Embrace the abundance the universe gives you. We are all connected in the unbroken circle of life. Breathe in the feeling of love and wholeness that starts in the heart and radiates out to the world.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 19) Do not take things personally. Your sense of peace and contentment is worth maintaining at all times. Peace comes when we allow all expectations to float away. Breathe in acceptance of the ways others express their points of view.

PISCES (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20) Bravely face your shadow-self. Do not allow your ever-present shadow side to cause self-doubt or weaken your resolve. The sun’s dawning brings back warmth, light and color and to a darkened world. Breathe in the infinite promise of a new day NOTE: If you were born at the end or beginning of a sign, also read the sign before or after your birthday.

Now Playing Glassland (NR) Toni Collette steals the show in this grim drama about a hard working son (Jack Reynor) who has to cope with his alcoholic mother. Gerard Barrett’s Irish drama is depressing, relying on Reynor (Transformers: Age of Extinction) to capture and hold the attention of the audience, and he for the most part gets the job done.

An asterisk (*) denotes an Indy Best Movie pick.

New To Theaters Race (NR) Stephan James plays Jesse Owens, in retrospect probably the most important sports figure (of any color) in the history of this country. It is an important lesson for those who don’t know the story of the track and field superstar, but unfortunately the film focuses on the magical performance by Owens in the 1936 Olympics – in front of Hitler, and not on the trials Owens had to endure afterwards.

Keep It Simple, Tavern Style

Independent / Emily Toy

By Emily Toy Last week, I traveled to downtown Amagansett to pay a visit to Indian Wells Tavern for a bite. I was familiar with the casual locale, having enjoyed countless burgers, chicken wings, quesadillas and other bar bites over the years.

Upon arrival, my friend and I were warmly greeted by Margaret, who promptly showed us to our seats, smiling the entire time. The 30-foot bar and surrounding area with high-top tables was lively for a Tuesday night.

Beer was flowing, there was a jovial murmur buzzing around. The vibe was good.

This feeling continued as we sat down in the newly furbished dining area. Red banquets adorned the brick walls, with newly finished tabletops on the chic black metal bear claw tables.

Raul, our server and a veteran in the biz, was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly.

As we perused the menu, he suggested a chef’s choice tasting which featured menu items available a la carte. We decided that may be a good way to have new chef Tyler Hannabal show us what he’s got.

I had a margarita to drink first, my friend a Blue Moon. The Tavern has about eight specialty cocktails as well as well-priced glasses of wine.

But it’s the dozens of beers (both draft and bottled) available that are sure to

please anyone wanting to wet their whistle.

Bread service was the introduction to the meal and it was a solid one, with sesame seed crackers and warm slices of wheat bread served with both butter and a house-made sundried tomato spread. As someone who usually has one piece of bread, if any, when I go out, I found my hand wandering over to it more than once.

Highlights included a grahamcracker dusted calamari salad with a pesto drizzle. Although a little sweet, a quick spritz of lemon brightened it up immediately.

Described as a regular favorite, the potato-crusted cod was served over a risotto with pieces of bacon with a beurre blanc sauce. Although a bit starch heavy, the cod was cooked perfectly and the beurre blanc had just enough zing to it to counter the heaviness of the dish.

nice way to end our meal.

All in all, Indian Wells Tavern is reasonably priced, with no frills, and has been a staple in the local community for close to a decade serving solid bar food. Be sure to check them out for daily food and drink specials that include happy hours and prix fixe.

The Tavern is located in the heart of Amagansett at 177 Main Street. Call 631-267-0400 for more information.

Next came a rib eye with grilled asparagus. The asparagus were cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of char. The rib eye itself, so so, but if I could, I’d put the horseradish crème fraiche it came with on anything.

So yummy!

For dessert, we opted for something classic, and nothing is more classic than a crème brulee. The vanilla-flavored delicacy was close to perfect and a
