What’s your favorite nail polish (see p. 36), at least for now?

BETHANY CHRISTO The only color allowed on my toes is OPI’s “Barbie” pink shade. I’ll go crazy on my fingernails, but my toenails can only be that one shade. I’ve done this forever – I’m assuming it’s a permanent stain at this point.

SARAH KLOEPPLE In the summertime, my go-to nail polish is Essie’s “Topless and Barefoot” (the best ones have the kitschiest names). The light nude color goes perfectly with any outfit or accessory.

KATIE YEADON My favorite nail polish for my toes in summer is “Come Here” by Essie. I just discovered it – it’s the perfect bright coral that seems to go with whatever ensemble I’m wearing!

Editor ‌If you are familiar with Ladue News, you know that each week we run a column in the Arts & Culture section called Dinner & A Show, in which theater guru Mark Bretz highlights a new theatrical performance alongside a dinner recommendation. Although each week I adore reading Mark’s insightful and engaging reviews and the mouthwatering dish descriptions, a busy schedule of house showings (as well as house hunting) has put going out to dinner and a show on the back burner for my husband and me.

Last week, though, STAGES St. Louis graciously invited us to attend the debut of The Drowsy Chaperone. I ended up meeting my mom for a mother-daughter date at Crushed Red in Kirkwood (which was recently voted best Fast-Casual Concept in St. Louis by readers of our sister publication, Feast, in the August issue!), and we had a blast trying out new and nutritious noms before heading over to the performance. Although we weren’t familiar with the story of The Drowsy Chaperone before the show, we were delightfully surprised by an evening of laughter and talent that really made us both realize something: We should do this a lot more.

That evening reminded me to take a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life to really enjoy some one-on-one time with the ones I love. In this issue, we offer a lot of inspiration for finding those same moments for yourself, whether it be this week’s Dinner & A Show (p. 58), getting pedicures with friends (p. 36), trying out some fresh and seasonal summer recipes to feed your family (p. 47) or exploring the latest exhibit at the Saint Louis Art Museum solo (p.

62). Whatever your daily routine, we hope these stories inspire you to add a touch of something special in the weeks to come.

All the best,

Alecia Humphreys

ach year, Mercy Kids inspires the community to make a world of difference in children’s lives. At this year’s 13th Annual Benefit for Mercy Kids, patrons were asked to aid in Mercy Children’s Hospital St. Louis’ effort to raise money for a new children-designated MRI area. Mercy Hospital seeks to provide top-notch children’s health care, but its efforts only begin there. Creating a safe haven for children is an important part of the work the hospital does. Building a Pediatric MRI Experience goes a long way toward generating that type of environment.

“We’re the premier provider of pediatric services in St. Louis County,” Dr. Thomas Applewhite, head of neurology, says. “There are two other children’s hospitals, but they are in the city. We’re out in the county and we’ve been providing pediatric services for 30 years. We have nice facilities, experienced doctors, and our program is strong.” That level of success derives from a determination to make every part of a patient’s visit or stay comforting.

“Currently, young patients share the MRI machines with the adults. Their examinations are done safely and effectively, but we don’t have the pediatric surroundings that help make children comfortable,” he says. “With the Pediatric MRI Experience, they’ll be able to stay in a kid-friendly environment the whole time.” From bidding family farewell in the pediatric wing to taking the long walk to where MRIs are currently conducted can be quite terrifying for a young patient, according to Applewhite. For an MRI scan to be effective, patients must lie still for a couple of hours. Sometimes, sedation is necessary to ensure a child doesn’t move during the lengthy process. Mercy Kids believes changing a child’s environment can drastically reduce the necessity to sedate young patients.

Applewhite describes how the new Pediatric MRI Experience transforms the room into an exploratory space for children. “Environmental augmentation [will change] the room through light scenes and put the child more at ease,” he explains. “Cartoon characters and [a variety of] scenes will mesh the room with what kids find pleasing.” From ordinary surroundings, with the push of a button, children can witness the room change into an underwater world, a jungle, a pirate ship or more through projected images splashed across the walls.

For a child battling a life-threatening disease, a hospital can be a frightening place. Mercy aims to make its halls and rooms a place of hope and comfort for its patients, and through the Pediatric MRI Experience, children might just find a little bit of peace. “A big part of the reason we have such a successful pediatric program is [due to us having] the largest service for delivering babies in the state of Missouri and the largest neonatal support, which [typically] is the entry point for a lot of our patients,” he says. “We want to [continue to] be here for them as they grow up.”

To support the Pediatric MRI Experience and other pediatric services at Mercy Children’s Hospital, Mercy recently held its 13th annual Benefit for Mercy Kids Golf Tournament, as well as a Dinner Auction at The Ritz-Carlton, St. Louis. The events raised more than $1 million for Mercy Kids.

ELIZABETH BAUMGARTNER OF LITTLE BLACK DOOR ‌A quick peek at the website for Little Black Door Designs, Elizabeth Baumgartner’s interior design firm, yields some interesting details about the woman behind the company. For example, we learn that Baumgartner loves Chipotle burritos, never leaves home without earrings and enjoys a good gin-and-tonic. Yet those fun facts barely scratch the surface of the ideas and motivations behind Baumgartner’s fresh take on interiors.

Her blog enthusiastically announces that she will soon be opening a brick-and-mortar shop where clients can expect to find “tons of great vintage furniture and lamps that have been refurbished, refinished and refreshed as well as accessories, custom lampshades and pillows, art, etc.” Ladue News talked with Baumgartner to learn more.

How and when did Little Black Door begin, and how has the business grown since its inception?

I started Little Black Door six years ago after doing small design projects for friends for years, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how we’ve blossomed.

We’ve moved into more long-term projects and wholehome designs but still enjoy small rehab projects and single-room designs. This is our biggest year of growth yet, with a lot of exciting projects happening.

Your background is in web design. How have you used those skills to hone your work for interiors?

No matter what industry you’re in, customer service is a vital component, and although the type of design may have changed, creating good work and making clients happy has always been my top priority. Utilizing that 20 years of experience in customer service and project management has served me well. That and organization – we’d be nowhere without organization.

What is your design aesthetic and process?

Color and character are the staples of my aesthetic.

As the iconic Dorothy Draper said, “I firmly believe that nothing contributes so much to the beauty of this world as color.” Shopping local is also very important to me, and I work hard to provide my clients with options that you won’t find in every chain store. We use a hip traditional eye that combines color, texture and a combination of high- and low-end pieces to curate a space that feels familiar but looks unique.

Explain your Design in a Box concept. How does that work, and what are the benefits?

Design in a Box grew out of conversations I would

26 August 5, 2016 | LadueNews.com

have with clients who had a desire to change a space in their home but wanted it to happen a little bit at a time, or didn’t have the budget to hire a designer for the whole project. This option allows me to work with a client on the design of a space, developing all the fine details and then providing them a shopping list so that they can execute the room over time at their convenience. One great benefit to this option is it provides a clear road map for a homeowner who might be intimidated about the design process. It also shows them that they do, in fact, have a style and gives them more confidence in knowing what they like.

You offer a variety of levels of service. How do they differ, and who is each level best suited for?

Just as each space is unique, so is every client. Some just need to talk through ideas for various nooks and crannies in a single consult/brainstorming session, while others want help creating and managing an entire remodel, and [still] others are just looking to refresh a space that has become stale. Whenever meeting a potential client, I always start with a face-toface meeting to discuss their needs and develop a plan that best suits them and their project.

What’s the most important thing you think our readers should know about Little Black Door?

I like to think I can help clients open the door to fun interior design in a process that is accessible and nonintimidating and results in a highly personalized style for each client’s home.

These outdoor shade items can help you beat the summer heat.

I

t’s the height of summer in St. Louis, and families and friends are gathering on backyard decks, dining al fresco on patios and relaxing poolside. But along with the outdoor fun come sweltering temperatures amid sun-drenched exterior living spaces. To beat the heat, area designers are offering the top ways to select and style the best backyard shade items, from pergolas and outdoor curtains to sail umbrellas and canopies.

Staying cool during the dog days of the season is best achieved through sail umbrellas, pergolas with outdoor curtains and roller shades, according to Heidi Sowatsky, owner and decorator of the local franchise of Decorating Den in St. Charles and the regional director for Decorating Den in the St. Louis area. Fashioned after a ship’s sail, a sail umbrella is a piece of mesh – typically blocking about 90 percent of ultraviolet rays – tensioned between multiple posts or structures. Pergolas are outdoor structures consisting of columns that support a roofing grid of rafters and, along with umbrellas and other permanent structures, are best for blocking the midday sun, Sowatsky explains. A roller shade is a piece of fabric mounted on a roller for convenient sun control and shifting shade, ideal for working against late-morning or later-afternoon beams that penetrate a covered patio at an angle.

When it comes to selecting attractive and durable exterior shade items, Sowatsky says Sunbrella is a well-regarded brand of custom-made outdoor fabric, preferred for its weather- and fade-resistant qualities. And consumers have every color of the rainbow to choose from when selecting outdoor curtains, umbrellas and canopies. “You don’t have to stick to earth tones anymore, but most people will gravitate toward the colors of nature – green, blue and brown,” Sowatsky says. Conversely, let the natural pigments of the outdoors speak for themselves, and use one pop of color, such as a vivid hue of red, orange or yellow, in various locations throughout the space – from umbrellas to outdoor curtains, rugs, and furniture cushions and pillows, Sowatsky explains. “That color will serve as an accent to the naturally provided colors of the outdoors.”

Dana King, owner of NEXT Project Studio, recommends avoiding color trends. “I favor what fits the space and the client,” she says. “If a trendy color doesn’t enhance the surroundings – doesn’t bring out the character of the stone fireplace or the cedar wood, for example – don’t feel compelled to use it.”

To add color, architecture and a lot of style, homeowners should try a sail shade – another name for a sail umbrella – with UV-blocking and fire-resistance from a quality manufacturer such as Coolaroo, King says. “One or two sail shades can provide a canopy for an intimate space, or they can be layered for more drama and to cover more space.” Curtains added to an existing pergola create an elegant sun shield for patios and decks, as well as soften the structure’s hard edges, King adds.

St. Louis designer Mary Tramelli says it’s a great idea to treat your outdoor space as an extension of the indoors, carrying the home’s interior colors and designs outside.

“I think of the backyard as another room of the house,” Tramelli says. “Whatever colors are going on inside, such as earth tones like dark rust and olive green – use those outside.” These pigments can be displayed on shade-providing products, from umbrellas to canopies, as well as through shade trees like northern catalpas or shady garden plants like orange ‘Dragon Wing’ begonias. This allows your outdoor living area to complement your home’s interior, as well as blend into the natural environment, Tramelli explains.

To position backyard shade items in style, homeowners can opt to cover their entire outdoor dining and lounge areas through canopies between trees or sail shades between posts or awnings attached to the edge of the home.

“For a truly artful installation, consult a designer who can purchase the shades and work with their installer to create the most impactful placement,” King says, noting that a custom design is the ultimate way to achieve the most attractive, tailored look.

With the right combination of complementary shade accents, local designers say cooling down your backyard living space can be a breeze.

BEAUTY BUZZ

A High-Brow

Affair

By Kimmie Gotch

A

lthough everyone has them, many women neglect them: eyebrows.

As long as they’re shaped and filled correctly, brows frame your face and positively accentuate your features, so when it comes to them, seek a professional’s help. A professional can wax, thread or tweeze your brows and address any issues you may have with shape, color and so forth.

Once your brows have been professionally shaped, follow these three steps to complete your journey to achieving the perfect look.

1. Invest in the right products. To get perfect brows, use the right products. Every woman needs to own an eyebrow pencil, and I consider the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz one of the best on the market.

One side features a retractable eyebrow pencil; the other side, a “spooley” for brushing your brows.

This ultraslim, retractable pencil also comes in several shades, allowing you to find the one that best complements your complexion and hair.

Another essential product, eyebrow gel, resembles clear mascara, but goes on your brows to keep them in place.

2. Find where your brows should start and end. All the ladies with sparse/less-defined brows need to know where to fill and where to stop. To do this, hold your eyebrow pencil vertically against your nose. The place your pencil hits your forehead marks where your brow should start. To find where your brow should end, meanwhile, hold the pencil from the corner of your nose to the outer edge of your eye for a good guide to follow.

3. Fill them in. Before you start filling in your brows with your newly purchased eyebrow pencil and gel, learn how to apply the product properly to avoid “Sharpie brows.” Also, recognize that brows are like

sisters, not twins – they have their subtle differences.

First, lightly fill in your brow following the direction of your hair growth, using little strokes that mimic brow hairs. Start by brushing your brows upward with your eyebrow pencil’s spooley. Once your brow hairs are brushed upward, begin outlining your brow with the pencil by following the curvature of your brow’s lower part. Next, brush your brow hairs down, and repeat the previous step – except do it to the top of your brow. After outlining the top and bottom, start filling in the middle and end of your brow by drawing small, hairlike strokes. When you’ve

finished this step, fill in the front of your brow, using a very light hand. You don’t want to square off the front of your brow; you want it to taper into the rest of your brow for a very natural look. Next, use the spooley to brush through your brows. If you were too heavy-handed in any area, brush that part of your brow several times to remove excess pencil. Once you’re happy with your brows, brush them with the eyebrow gel so they stay in place all day.

If you follow the preceding steps, you’ll have gorgeous brows every time that frame your face, add to your beauty – and raise more than a few gentlemen’s brows!

Nailed It

LN presents your guide for procuring the perfect pedicure this summer.

B

y now, pedicures have become a sort of rite of passage – just glance at your social media feeds. As one of parents’ many photo-documented children’s “firsts,” there are few as squealinducing as a pint-size prince or princess beaming merrily from his or her perch on a pedicure throne, feet soaking in a spa of bubbling water.

It might not just be your imagination – this is a fairly new phenomenon. The nationwide presence of nail salons has grown exponentially since 2000 and is expected to continue its rise. You have to admit, there is a certain je ne sais quoi in slipping well-coiffed feet in those sassy summer sandals or transitional fall peep-toe booties.

Despite the seemingly recent surge of popularity, pedicures have been part of culture for millennia.

During China’s Ming dynasty, as well as in ancient Egypt, nail color was an indicator of one’s social status. Back then, nail polish was made of beeswax, egg whites, gelatin and vegetable dyes. The emergence of red nail polish as a commanding color might even be attributed to the earliest practices of nail art: Supposedly, distinct shades of red were signatures for Cleopatra and Queen Nefertiti, and the way someone could distinguish Ming dynasty royalty was by their black and red polish.

Fast-forward 5,000 years, when bright, colorful toes are still the most popular selections at nail salons throughout St. Louis. Nail-polish manufacturers come out with summer lines each year, and this year, the trend has skewed heavily toward pinks, oranges and corals. OPI’s Retro Summer collection features a line of six vibrant and bright hues, including the playfully pink “Flip-Flops & Crop Tops” and the orange-red “SPF XXX.” OPI’s New Orleans collection, released in the spring of this year, features 12 brazen colors with saucy, clever names like the hot pink “She’s a Bad Muffuletta!” – a favorite at Go!Spa in Des Peres – and creamy orange “Crawfishin’ for a Compliment.”

Terri Kavanaugh, technical educator and nail technician at Ginger Bay Salon and Spa at the Town and Country location, recommends long-lasting CND VINYLUX nail polish, which has wear longevity similar to a gel polish but removes easily with an acetone remover. Ginger Bay’s hottest VINYLUX colors of the season include bright red “Lobster Roll,” creamy lavender “Lilac Longing” and deep pink “Sultry Sunset.”

If you’re hitting the beach, Huy Ho, owner at Clayton Nail Spa, recommends a gel polish, which is applied to the nail in layers and hardens for a longerlasting polish than traditional lacquer.

Ginger Bay also offers various trending nail treatments, such as crinkle foils, which give the nails a metallic-textured look, but with a smooth feel, as well as nail art, such as St. Louis Cardinals and Blues logos. “Some of our nail technicians have their own favorites,” Kavanaugh says, “like Minions, Harry Potter, flowers, fireworks, flags and other seasonal designs.”

With back-to-school and seasonal transitions, fall spurs many of us to change up our color palette.

Go!Spa owner Lisa Oliver expects shades of plum and navy to have the spotlight as popular colors darken for the cooler months.

The idea of pedicures as a treat reserved for special occasions is a common misconception. Even if you don’t like your piggies painted, regular pedicures carry their own health benefits. “Pedicures act as a preventative measure against future foot problems,” Kavanaugh says.

Kavanaugh’s recommended frequency is a pedicure every four weeks. A basic pedicure at most places includes a soak in a warm-water foot spa, a scrub with a pumice stone or foot file, nail clipping and shaping, foot and calf massage, exfoliation, moisturizer and polish.

This process is especially important during the summer months. “We’re wearing a lot of sandals, and [that tends to] dry out our heels,” Oliver says.

“Avoid wearing flip-flops,” adds Kavanaugh. “The lack of support

contributes to heel cracks, foot pain, blisters and other foot disorders. The lack of coverage exposes your feet to bacterial and fungal infections.”

All three of our experts recommend using heel and cuticle moisturizers daily between regularly spaced appointments. We might not have our toes on display during the drier fall and winter months, but it’s always a good idea to maintain healthy feet – and it can’t hurt to get a jump on putting your best foot forward for next spring.

ON! ‌A

By Frank Cusumano

thletic director Mack Rhoades leaving Mizzou for Baylor is like your wife leaving you for an out-of-work, abusing husband.

Baylor – really? They cover up murder and allow sexual offenders to play football. How bad is the Mizzou atmosphere for Rhoades to wake up one day and say, “I want to go to Baylor”?

Mizzou has the hat track going now: interim chancellor, interim president and now interim athletic director. It’s amazing to think what one boycott did to a university.

Who knows just how long the damage will last? We do know, though, that enrollment is down and sports there have taken a nosedive.

However, I am bullish on the football program’s future under coach Barry Odom. I like my coaches to be overachievers as players, and Odom was a gutsy linebacker who played on a bad knee and tackled running backs like a madman. As a coach, he made the Memphis defense one of the best in the country, and he did the same last year as Missouri’s defensive coordinator.

He’ll be a relentless recruiter. He will bring four- and five-star players to Columbia consistently. Elite prospects in our own town are going to feel bad if and when they tell Odom no, because he’s going to be all over them like a cheap suit. Every big-time recruit in town that I’ve personally spoken to has gone on repeatedly about the way Mizzou has recruited.

We need Missouri to be great. St. Louis has no NFL, and we are not going to adopt the Kansas City Chiefs. So the Tigers are our team. Many of Mizzou’s kids grew up right here in our town. Mizzou is picked to finish sixth in the SEC, but I’m not buying that. They have several future draft choices on that defensive line. They did, though, have a historically inept offense last season.

However, they have a new offensive coordinator, new running backs, new wide receivers and a new offensive line. And again, I’m bullish on Odom. We deserve a winner. Any region that had to endure the Rams should get rewarded.

THOUGHTS: In a few years, St. Louis will be home to a place called Topgolf. It will replace the Hardee’s Iceplex and will do more for golf than Tiger Woods. I just went to a Topgolf in Atlanta – imagine playing golf in a climate-controlled area with chicken wings, beer and high-definition televisions. They put a microchip in each ball, and it’s as if you are really playing the game.

■ I don’t blame any of these golf or NBA players for not going to the Olympics. I love the Olympics, but if I am a golfer worth $40 million and want to start a family with my wife, I wouldn’t risk the health of my kids just for a chance to win the gold.

■ My daughter recently fired me as her caddy. OK, I may have stopped on a few markers on the green, dropped a few head covers and read a few texts, but isn’t life about getting second chances? I really loved being on that bag. Her loss.

■ The only thing better than beating the Cubs in the playoffs would be beating them to win the division and not even have them in the playoffs. Not sure if you know this, but they have already organized a World Series parade for Chicago. I think the national media helped with the details. The Cubs are the favorites. And they are gifted. But this could still be a fun September – it always is in St. Louis.

■ Things I really like: an Adam Wainwright interview, a Cobb salad with Italian dressing, Walter White, Frank Underwood, the new Bill Walton book (Back From the Dead), watching my kids play sports and the iPhone – how did we ever live without it?

■ Say a prayer for my friend Rene Knott.

Preventing Anxiety in Children

F

By Dr. Joseph Kahn

ear, counterintuitively, can be good.

Our genetic makeup and heritage predispose us to fear certain things like tornados, which make us reflexively startle – a protective fear.

However, excessive fearfulness, often expressed as anxiety disorders, affects as many as one in four children. Conditioning, behavioral modeling and communication (beyond genetic factors) can inculcate fears, with such precipitating factors often coexisting as bad things happen – anxious parents react, with children taking note and learning from such reactions. Also, some parents excessively warn about potential occurrences, whether realistic or not.

So what can parents and other caretakers do to lessen or prevent anxiety and excessive fearfulness in children?

First, avoid conditioning as much as possible.

Recognize that children are perpetually exposed to fearful stimuli through “media” like television reports that can cause excessive fear in children exposed to situations similar to those depicted on TV. For example, children who viewed a televised riot could come to fear crowds. So if necessary, avoid exposure

Second, recognize that behavioral modeling influences children. If parents remain calm in the face of adversity or traumatic situations, their children will learn to react calmly as well. Uptight and anxious parents model uptight and anxious behaviors for their children. Be conscientious of how you react and behave.

Third, talk to children constantly. Be aware of how often you warn your children. Be safe and cautious – and keep your children safe. Teach them appropriate behaviors like looking both ways before crossing a street. However, don’t teach them to fear getting near a car.

All things considered, take care in your communication and lessons taught. You can teach your children to be safe and careful without instilling unreasonable fear in them.

Harvest

Summer

Story, recipes and photography

by Sherrie Castellano

Refreshing vegetable-packed starters, sides and sweets make the most of vibrant summer produce.

F

resh produce peaks midsummer, specifically in August. It’s a time to celebrate the Earth’s abundance of juicy fruits, savory vegetables and fragrant herbs. I think most people would agree their favorite part of the summer months has something to do with enjoying the season’s harvest. Whether you’re dining al fresco or keeping cool indoors with friends and family, fresh food brings us together. It’s something we need – and can’t seem to get enough of.

The following recipes round out all your sweet and savory end-of-summer cravings.

The tangy endive salad and salty ricotta toasts provide a fun, simple and stunning way to get your family to eat more vegetables. Endive, a slightly bitter leafy green, has a high water content to keep you hydrated in the heat. The almost-raw carrot gazpacho comes together in just minutes, keeping you and your kitchen cool, not to mention how good it is for you with all its fiber and phytonutrients.

The beet-and-berry smoothie bowls are surprisingly delicious and sweet, and are sure to impress even the harshest beet critics. Plus, they’re plenty suitable for a refreshing breakfast. And last but certainly not least are the iced-coffee ice pops – what’s not to love? They’re creamy iced latte on sticks. Go on, indulge!

Beet-and-Berry Smoothie BowlS Serves | 4 to 6 | 1 1 1 ¼ 2 ½

ACTIVE AGING: Feature Story

Active,

the gatesworth

stay

By Robyn Dexter

eeping an active lifestyle can enhance quality of life as a person ages. Helping residents stay active in a variety of ways is a priority at The Gatesworth.

Mary Dyer moved to St. Louis from Kentucky four months ago to be closer to her daughter.

When asked what a typical day looks like for her, her response is that it “depends on the day,” because she’s involved in so many activities.

“I’m in a book club. I play lots of bridge. I also go to a knitting group on Saturday mornings,” she says. “I thank God for being able to participate in so many different activities. I’ve made so many friends.”

When her husband passed away five years ago, Dyer had to adjust to being alone. Her daughter had lived in St. Louis since 1984, after going to medical school at Washington University, so Dyer thought St. Louis would be good for her, too.

“When it became obvious I was going to need to move, we looked at a lot of other retirement communities,” she says. “But we felt like The Gatesworth had a large staff and many activities, and that was appealing to me.”

Dyer also enjoys getting out in the St. Louis community.

“I’ve always enjoyed the Missouri Botanical Garden and taking my grandchildren to the zoo,” she says. “Shopping is also very easy.”

Cookie Olswanger has been at The Gatesworth for 3½ years. She moved from Memphis to be closer to her daughter, who’s in St. Louis.

“I needed someone nearby since I’m 83 years old,” Olswanger says.

She enjoys a busy, active lifestyle at The Gatesworth, just like Dyer.

“Today I’m going out to lunch. I’m busy all the time. I love the movies. I like to shop. I like everything,” she says with a laugh.

She says life is easy for her at The Gatesworth, and she is able to enjoy a life much like the one she had in Memphis.

“I’m enjoying St. Louis very much,” she says.

Dinner ...

C

entral West End visitors now have a new spot to eat and imbibe – perhaps before enjoying Tosca at Union Avenue Opera. Scarlett’s Wine Bar opened in June, featuring wine, cocktails, pizza, charcuterie plates and more.

The full-service concept comes from Alan Richman and Rachel Jones, who also own popular local watering holes Sasha’s, Sasha’s on Shaw and DeMun Oyster Bar. Nick Puccio heads up the kitchen, while Tim McAndrew and Logan Cochran serve as managers.

“It’s a cozy, laid-back wine bar,” says McAndrew. “We encourage people to stay and have a bottle. There are multiple bottles from the owners’ cellar. We have a good beer and cocktails program, as well, but overall,

58

AUGUST 5, 2016 | LadueNews.com

it’s just a comfortable place to relax.”

Scarlett’s features the familiarity of Sasha’s in a fresh new location. Ninety seats are available across an indoor dining area and a spacious outdoor patio outfitted with big red umbrellas. Design themes include a scarlet-and-bronze color scheme, marble tabletops, art deco light fixtures and, of course, an abundance of wine bottles and décor.

Unlike its sister wine-bar concepts, however, Scarlett’s boasts a sizable kitchen with an exciting new component: a wood-fired oven. In-house pizza dough gets baked with a variety of topping options, such as the most popular combination so far: thinly sliced prosciutto paired with Bartlett pears, extra virgin olive oil, scallions and fresh mozzarella.

The Neapolitan-style pies replace Sasha’s flatbread

fare in classic combinations such as the Margherita, with fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, extra virgin olive oil, basil and finely grated Parmesan. Another option, breakfast pizza, comes with bacon, Italian sausage, tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, herbed cheddar, scallions and sunny-side-up eggs.

While its meat and cheese plates mirror the offerings at Sasha’s locations, Scarlett’s offers some unique menu items. The Scarlett Burger, for instance, is a new offering made of finely ground Creekstone premium chuck seared until crispy on the edges with melted herbed cheddar, iceberg lettuce, tomato and onion on a warm brioche.

Although the kitchen currently uses Companion bread for its sandwiches, the menu eventually will transition to house-baked bread. The full menu –

‌Story: Cesare Angelotti, an escaped political prisoner in Italy in the early 1940s, seeks refuge in the church of Sant’Andrea della Valle in Rome.

There he is seen by his friend, artist Mario Cavaradossi, who has been using Angelotti’s beautiful sister as the unknowing model for his painting of Mary Magdalene at the church.

Cavaradossi hides Angelotti shortly before the arrival of the painter’s lover, actress Floria Tosca. The jealous Tosca believes that Cavaradossi is having an affair with the woman in the painting, but the artist reassures her of his fidelity.

Scarpia, chief of the Roman secret police, arrives in search of Angelotti and suspects Cavaradossi of hiding the escapee.

He convinces Tosca that Cavaradossi is unfaithful to her, hoping that in her anger she will lead Scarpia’s troops to Angelotti’s hiding place, at Cavaradossi’s villa. Unable to find Angelotti, Scarpia has Cavaradossi tortured instead, in an effort to learn Angelotti’s whereabouts. Tosca hears her lover being tortured and reveals where Angelotti is hiding.

Scarpia tells Tosca that he will free Cavaradossi only if Tosca agrees to give herself to the police chief. After he agrees to release Cavaradossi following a mock execution, Tosca kills Scarpia while he is dining. When the execution turns out to be authentic, and Scarpia’s troops come to arrest Tosca for Scarpia’s murder, she kills herself rather than be captured.

Highlights: Union Avenue Opera moves the setting of Giacomo Puccini’s tragic opera from 1800 to the early 1940s in Rome, but retains the beauty of the lush score. Strong performances in the leading roles and the assured guidance of director Jon Truitt and conductor Stephen Hargreaves make this Tosca an aural treat.

Other Info: While Truitt’s updated time period allows for the creation of some smart costumes designed by Teresa Doggett (including some innovative, last-minute work for the injured Wayne Hu in the role of Angelotti), the libretto continues to mention the impending arrival of Napoleon and his army. A little alteration of the story by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, such as deletion of certain references, would have made more sense.

Elena O’Connor, in her Union Avenue Opera debut, delivers a strong performance as the emotionally fragile title character. Her stunning soprano makes the aria “Vissi d’arte” (“I lived for art, I lived for love”) one of the performance’s strongest moments.

Doggett dresses her in a lush, red evening gown that underscores the violence in later scenes.

Mathew Edwardsen is powerful in the role of the

tortured artist Cavaradossi, accentuating his character’s nobility most noticeably in the torture scenes at the hands of Scarpia as well as his own affecting aria, “E lucevan le stele” (“And the stars shone”), which his steady tenor delivers with conviction.

Baritone Neil Nelson’s Scarpia was the people’s choice on opening night, both for his convincing portrayal of the villainous police chief and for his confident singing, while Hu delivered a compelling portrayal of the doomed political prisoner Angelotti and displayed his own arresting voice on his numbers.

Good work also came from Mark Freiman as the church’s aged sacristan, Marc Schapman and Kurtis Shoemake as Scarpia’s henchmen, Randell McGee as the jailer and Katherine Menke as a shepherd.

In addition to the curious inclusion of references to Napoleon, the production included the jarring sight of one of the prison guards in dreadlocks. Really? Not in Italy around 1940, one wouldn’t think.

Truitt elicited fine performances from his able cast and kept the production moving briskly throughout, aided by two intermissions. Hargreaves evoked many superior musical moments with a strong interpretation of Puccini’s memorable score, thanks to the excellent efforts of his orchestra.

Tosca has been one of the most popular pieces in the operatic repertoire virtually since its premiere in Rome in 1900. Union Avenue Opera’s interpretation shows why Tosca, despite its heavy dose of melodrama, continues to resonate with audiences.

he painting, a 2-foot-square botanical abstract created in 2015, bears the title Poppy Addiction II, which impishly alludes to Papaver somniferum, the opium poppy – and one should perhaps expect nothing less.

After all, its creator, Central West End resident Tim Kent-Moore, was born and raised in Sin City itself – Las Vegas.

A self-taught painter, he’s worked for more than three decades in costume design and construction, currently as creative director for a local event-design company.

Both his vocational and avocational experience, Kent-Moore says, “has culminated in a series of pieces where pigment and binding agents are poured onto a secondary surface and manipulated. When the paint is dry, it’s pealed up, cut apart and collaged back onto a painted canvas. Each subsequent layer is embedded in an additional coat of varnish. The end result has a luster and depth which I personally find intriguing.”

He then reflects in specific on Poppy Addiction II. “I might have a bit of a problem – I can’t stop painting poppies,” Kent-Moore confesses. “This one is on a larger scale. I love the way they gradate from red

through orange. I love the gather at the center and the way the petals seem to twirl out [each bloom’s] delicate ruffles – like a full skirt on a dance floor.

That’s the feeling I’ve tried to capture in this multilayered acrylic piece.”

Marshalling Martial Marvels

By Bryan A. Hollerbach Images courtesy of the Saint Louis Art Museum

The Saint Louis Art Museum debuts a breathtaking exhibition devoted to bellicose beauty.

Goya.

Across roughly two centuries, the name of that artistic titan remains inextricably linked to the subject of war, as demonstrated by a free exhibition opening today at the Saint Louis Art Museum.

“Impressions of War,” that exhibition, will occupy Galleries 234 and 235 of the museum through February, and the absence of a catalogue raisonné (alas!) makes visiting it compulsory for local art devotees.

“The exhibition was inspired by two things: the recent acquisition of the first edition of Goya’s Disasters of War, along with the upcoming exhibition of Japanese war-related prints set to open in October,” explains curator Elizabeth Wyckoff. “We are lucky to have all of the series as part of [the museum’s] collection, providing visitors an extraordinary opportunity to examine how artists have approached the theme of war and conflict over five centuries.”

Organizing the exhibition was a team from the Department of Prints, Drawings and Photographs that included Leah Chizek, research assistant; Ann-Maree Walker, senior research assistant; and Gretchen Wagner, Andrew W. Mellon Fellow in the department.

Leading that team was Wyckoff, who earned her doctorate from New York’s famed Columbia University with a specialization in early 17th-century Dutch prints and who previously worked at the Big Apple’s equally famed Metropolitan Museum of Art and elsewhere before becoming the local departmental curator in 2010.

“Impressions of War” incorporates martial artwork from three printmakers besides Goya: Jacques Callot, a Frenchman who lived from 1592 to 1635; Max Beckmann, a German Expressionist who lived from 1884 to 1950; and Daniel Heyman, a contemporary American now teaching in the Northeast.

Central to the exhibition, though, remains Goya – more fully, Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes – the Spanish visionary who lived from 1746 to 1828.

H.W. Janson and Anthony F. Janson’s magisterial History of Art (a volume weighty enough to be weaponized) characterizes Goya as “the only

62

august 5, 2016 | LadueNews.com

artist of the age who may unreservedly be called a genius” and states that “his etchings … made him the most important printmaker since Rembrandt.”

From The Disasters of War – a portfolio of almost seven dozen plates inspired by the 1808-14 Napoleonic occupation of Spain, created by Goya from 1810 to 1820 but only formally published 3½ decades after his death – the Jansons call “the greatest” The Third of May, 1808, “commemorating the execution of a group of Madrid citizens.”

In another reference, art historian David Gariff – now serving as a senior lecturer at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and an adjunct professor of art history at the Catholic University of America there – suggests, persuasively, that The Third of May, 1808, both conceptually and compositionally, inspired not only Édouard Manet’s The Execution of the Emperor Maximilian from the late 1860s, but also Pablo Picasso’s Massacre in Korea from 1951.

The Jansons add: “The same scene was to be reenacted countless times in modern history. With the clairvoyance of genius, Goya created an image that has become a terrifying symbol of our era.”

With this exhibition, Wyckoff says she and her team hope to inspire visitors with “fascination and shock with the subject matter on the one hand – also, amazement at the extent to which the artists went to convey a troubling message, but one that carries with it some hope for change.”

The Goya component of the exhibition certainly fills that bill. The Disasters of War presents a panorama of pain, a parade of cadavers and a visual chronicle of rage, spotlighting, in the words of Scottish poetic giant Robert Burns, “Man’s inhumanity to man”: rape, strangulation, decapitation.

Plate 37, by way of example, depicts the naked corpse of a civilian, mutilated and cast into a tree.

It follows a plate depicting a “mere” hanging and bears the Spanish title Esto es peor – “This is worse.”

Yes, quite.

The curatorial team hopes the exhibition offers not just depth but breadth in its presentation of the works of Goya, Beckmann, Callot and Heyman, Wyckoff relates.

“Early on, we decided to focus on exhibiting complete print series only, rather than individual prints, relating to war,” she states. “It is a rare opportunity to hang and view the entire series, revealing all the nuances of the content and techniques at play.

“Hopefully, by showing whole series rather than just individual prints, we can encourage people to dwell a bit longer on such difficult subject matter and really absorb the profound impact war and its aftermath had on each of these artists. It’s also exciting to see very contemporary works hanging alongside much earlier work.

We don’t always get the chance to make those connections in a single exhibition.”

Wyckoff characterized the preparation for this particular exhibition as “very satisfying.”

“We have paid particular attention to demonstrating the techniques, or ‘how-tos,’ of printmaking in the gallery, so that visitors will grasp the expertise of the artists represented,” she says. “Printmaking is a versatile medium that has attracted artists for centuries, and we hope visitors take away a greater understanding of how it is done, what it can accomplish visually and the impact it has had as an art form.

“We hope that visitors will focus on the story that the artists decided to tell with their series of prints. Artists and their art are necessary to help us assess and gain understanding of the difficult moments of our history.”

Assessing and understanding difficult moments, sad to say, remain integral to the present. In today’s war-riven climate, the title of one of Goya’s most-famed prints, which predated The Disasters of War by a decade or so, still resonates with apocalyptic ferocity: The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters.

Yet as this new exhibition at the museum amply displays, monstrosity, in the hands of a master, can inspire marvels.
