WEEKS AGO, WE INTRODUCED READERS TO THE BEAUTIFUL

2017 Ladue News Show House, located at 110 Dielman Road. Although it’s hard to believe that the Show House has officially closed its doors, it’s with great pleasure that we share the hard work of everyone who made it possible. Starting on p. 35, we hope this special edition not only showcases the talented designers who exquisitely executed this year’s Show House, while accentuating the natural beauty that abounds in this abode, but also shines a light on the generous sponsors that made the project possible. Whether you were a participating designer, a generous sponsor or a patron who perused the estate, we thank you. Because of the part you played, no matter how big or small, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital is one step closer to purchasing a cortical stimulator – a machine used during surgery to stop epileptic seizures. Even today, epilepsy remains a great unknown, and anything we can do to help is not just a benefit but a blessing. All the best,

Alecia Humphreys

he Saint Louis Art Museum has a longstanding commitment to contemporary German art. This dedication has led to the museum’s next big exhibition: “Thomas Struth: Nature & Politics.” The ticketed Struth exhibition opens on Sunday, Nov. 5, and will feature the German photographer’s work over the past decade. Over the last 10 years, Struth has been traveling to photograph technology in its behindthe-scenes stages. He’s visited engineering facilities and scientific research labs to capture the complexity of the most cutting-edge aspects of modern technology. These photographs have been reproduced on a large scale – some of them measuring 12 feet wide. This isn’t the first time Struth’s works have been on display at the Saint Louis Art Museum. Exhibition curator Eric Lutz says Struth’s work came to the museum in 1993. “We caught [Struth] at an early point in his career in America,” Lutz says. “Now we’re catching him at the height of his career. It’s wonderful to have a longer relationship with an artist and be able to return to their work.” Lutz notes that Struth’s work has taken a “shift in direction” with this past decade’s subject focus. He’s been active since the 1970s and is known for his expansive photographs of urban architecture and cultural spaces. In the museum’s exhibition, viewers will find more

than 35 photographs of epic proportions that take them into spaces that aren’t usually accessible to the everyday person. Struth has captured aeronautical centers, robotics laboratories, surgical suites and nuclear fusion facilities in this series of work. “I’m sure Struth would love for his work to be points of discourse, conversation and deeper thinking about technology and engineering today,” Lutz says. “Some people might feel alienation and critical about what they see, but others might see sights of intense creativity and hope in technology. You can feel both of those things at the same time. This brings the scientific field and the art field together.” To fully take in the scale of these photographs and their composition, Lutz says it’s something a visitor needs to see in person. “Struth has always pushed the boundaries,” Lutz says. “These are some of the biggest photographs being produced today. You really have to see it in person to be enveloped in it. He’s one of the best-known photographers working today.” The exhibition runs from Nov. 5 to Jan. 21, 2018. Struth will be visiting the Saint Louis Art Museum for a panel on Nov. 5 to discuss the exhibition. Saint Louis Art Museum, 1 Fine Arts Drive, St. Louis, 314-721-0072, slam.org

issouri Baptist Healthcare Foundation’s A Night in Bali Hai fundraiser, held at Laumeier Sculpture Park, helped raise money for a new 3-D mobile mammography van. The van enables Missouri Baptist Medical Center to provide screenings to women in St. Louis, as well as many underinsured and uninsured women in 30 Missouri counties outside St. Louis. Guests enjoyed Polynesian cuisine and drinks and Polynesianthemed performances. According to one estimate, the mammography van – just one of the projects the foundation plans to benefit this year – will serve more than 3,500 patients.

For 46 years, Birthright [Counseling,] St. Louis has been here for any woman who needs support during her pregnancy, particularly women who are facing an unplanned pregnancy. An abortion-minded woman often feels that she has no choice – no choice but abortion. Through practical assistance, emotional support and professional counseling, Birthright helps her to see the strength and courage within her, which empowers her to choose life for her baby. The greatest gift is seeing the happy mothers and babies who visit our offices. Thus far in 2017, we have celebrated the births of 491 babies.

These are returning citizens and so much more … Navigating the return to the community after prison can be an overwhelming and fragmented process. To ease the transition, the Concordance Academy team centrally coordinates all re-entry services for the individual – assisting formerly incarcerated people with finding a path to success by engaging Academy and community assets. Concordance Academy is a St. Louis-based nonprofit that offers the country’s first set of integrated, holistic and evidence-driven services to individuals returning to society from prison. Led by President and CEO Danny Ludeman, the organization assists participants in three primary areas: behavioral health and wellness; education and employment; and community and life skills. The Academy starts working with individuals six months prior to release and continues assisting for up to a year after their return to the community. We are committed to restoring individuals, rebuilding families, transforming communities and advancing the field of re-entry services. Faced with the stigma of being a felon for life, Academy participants were challenged to describe themselves in one word that answered the question … WHAT DEFINES YOU?

When Fashion Becomes Furniture By Laura Powderly

‌F

urniture can become obsessive, especially when it’s that one-of-a-kind piece that makes the heart quicken and the inspiration flourish. When this happens, that piece of furniture will likely start or even drive the design process of a space. Whether it be a lounge chair covered in jeweltoned velour or a graphic painting with contrasting brushstrokes, a furnishing can certainly influence one’s design decisions. A person’s wardrobe can have the same effect, as well. An individual whose closet predominantly has black garments is likely drawn to a more neutral color palette when it comes to selecting both flooring and paint. However, if an individual frequently adorns herself in Kate Spade, a trendy space that’s both light and feminine would be perfect! The colors and patterns that attract our attention can impact how we look at remodeling our homes. For example, Belgian fashion designer Raf Simons,

30   November 3, 2017 | LadueNews.com

who has worked with Dior and Calvin Klein, recently teamed with the Danish textile brand Kvadrat. Together they produced a series of fabrics that were featured on iconic furnishings at the National Academy Museum in New York. Some of Simons’ inspirations were derived from art, which is not uncommon for designers in all media. Colors, textures and form, which we see throughout our day, can play a role when creating new things. In the same respect, similarities can often be found in both furniture fabrics and clothing. Although the construction of garment and upholstery textiles can differ, the inspiration behind the designs can be relative. Menswear is one area of fashion that often has correlating features of furniture designs. The texture and weaving patterns of some men’s suits can be like that of a compact large-grained weave used for furnishings by Kvadrat. With design, beauty is indeed in the eye the beholder,

and we do tend to be consistent with what kind of beauty moves us. Next time you stand in front of your closet to pick out your day’s ensemble, take note of any recurring themes or perhaps your favorite item. Then find the favorite piece of furniture you own. Are they similar? What do both pieces say about your design style?

AGENT PROFILE

Lizzy Dooley

OF LAURA MCCARTHY REAL ESTATE By Amanda Dahl ‌For Lizzy Dooley, matching homes with people was an instinct that ran in her blood. “Real estate found me!” Dooley says. “I grew up respecting my many family members who are in commercial and residential real estate. After three years as a teacher at an elementary school, I decided to give [that career path] a try. I completely fell in love with the fast pace and daily challenges of the industry.” Joining Laura McCarthy Real Estate, Dooley developed a team as dedicated as she to serving clients most effectively. “Be honest and available,” she advises. “Do whatever it takes to get the deal done. Our motto is to ‘love where you live.’ The Lizzy Dooley Group is known for being hardworking, honest, enthusiastic, extremely responsive to clients and knowledgeable about the market.” Dooley found a career path in which she can thrive at every step. “I am a networker, a people person and a total problem-solver,” she explains. “Real estate is a perfect fit. I love working closely with my clients. It is

an honor to help with this huge life change.” As with any occupation, challenges arise – but Dooley proves her savviness with each transaction. “Buyers are picky and smart,” she shares. “Getting homes looking great and priced right from day one is so important. It can be difficult to suggest making changes to sellers’ homes because they sometimes get emotional. However, how we live and how homes need to look when it is time to sell are two very different things.” Her essential understanding of the ins and outs of real estate makes Dooley a natural guide for people looking to buy or sell their homes. “November and December are great months to get together for a free consultation about what your home is worth – and what needs to be done to get it market-ready for the spring,” Dooley says. “Here at The Lizzy Dooley Group, we love our jobs.

hat’s better than one architecturally significant home? One architecturally significant home quite literally inside a second house, of course! That’s exactly what you’ll find at one-of-a-kind 110 Dielman Road in Ladue, the 2017 Ladue News Show House. Originally built in the 1930s, 110 Dielman Road started out as a charming stone cottage featuring a pattern of triangles and horizontal lines in light gray. Decades later, a massive contemporary addition was added, but unlike modern additions built onto the back of a home, this one engulfed the property, leaving the cottage and its stonework as the nucleus for the extensive estate. Samantha Goldenhersh grew up in the home from 1987 to 1998, when the

majority of the major renovations took place. Her mother and father, Jennifer and Mark Goldenhersh, bought it from Mark’s childhood friends’ parents, the Broida family. They made substantial improvements to the home, including adding the great room, movie theater, additional bathrooms and upstairs loft. Her father even had a tennis court built on the property, although it was later removed by a subsequent owner. Today, 110 Dielman Road features four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a halfbathroom throughout its 5,175-square-foot interior. The new exterior features oversize windows framing the view of 2-plus acres of property. Inside, the original stonework abounds, as well as other show-stopping design details like multiple vaulted wood-beam ceilings and a cobbled stone-and-marble floor. Ted Wight of Dielmann Sotheby’s International Realty, the Realtor on the $1.549 million residence, says the home is a great fit for the Show House because of its variety of aesthetic and design elements. “There’s a wide assortment of traditional and nontraditional rooms [that] will appeal to all people’s tastes – and it gives designers the ability to be contemporary or traditional,” he says, adding that it features “a lot to look at” and “all sorts of exciting design choices to experience” for visitors. “It’s not just a standard center-hall colonial home.” Rooms featured in the 2017 Show House involve both the main floor and the stately lower level. Downstairs, the abode features a variety of modern luxuries, including a family room, wet bar, sauna, wine cellar and bedroom suite. “It has contemporary flair but [a] wonderful traditional feel to it,” Wight says of the estate. Outside, 110 Dielman Road features an attached two-car garage, as well as a detached one-car garage with workspace. A large patio nestles into the manicured yet organic-feeling landscaping, but in case that isn’t enough outdoor entertaining space, the home also features an enclosed, open-air courtyard at its center off the great room. This unique space features ample stonework and endless design possibilities. When asked what space he’s most excited to see transformed, Wight says: “My favorite room is the great room, with the timbered ceilings, skylights and windows that look out onto the courtyard and backyard – it’s a very dramatic, large space.” He also mentions the adjoining open-air courtyard, saying, “It’s very unique, and I’m sure it’s going to be exciting.”

his year’s Ladue News Show House provides a unique opportunity to step back in time and discover how Ladue, where 110 Dielman Road is located, evolved over time – and continues to evolve today. Andy Dielmann of Dielmann Sotheby’s International Realty, presenting sponsor of this year’s Show House, speaks on his family connection to the property’s surrounding area. “Dielman Road was named after my greatgreat-grandfather,” he says. “When my family came over from Germany in the 1800s, they built the original Dielmann farm where the Briarcliff subdivision now stands. In high school, my older sister and some friends of hers were digging in their garden inside the Briarcliff neighborhood. They found an old horseshoe and thought it had to belong to our family’s farm.” The street was then named for the family (although no one can explain the lack of the second n at the end of the name). When asked how his great-greatgrandfather would react to seeing the Show House happening in this transformed neighborhood, Dielmann responds, “He’d likely be shocked.” The Dielmanns, however, aren’t the only ones who remember what the land formerly looked like. Ted Wight, the listing agent for the residence, grew up in the neighborhood, often exploring the area surrounding Dielman Road with friends. “I lived in Briarcliff, which is right next door,” he shares. “We used to wander and cut through yards. You’re right in the middle of all these wonderful family neighborhoods with trails. I love the location because it’s convenient for people from all over St. Louis to visit.” The home was originally built by a stonemason outside of the city. As the greater St. Louis area built up and expanded toward the property, the family maintained privacy with a forest enclosure. “Surrounded by greenery, it’s very private and creates a wonderful space where kids can play and build forts, with a large yard and creek,” Wight says. “The one thing that’s important for a Show House home is to have enough rooms to offer a true variety – not just your standards. There are several options in this home. The center of the home is an original 1930s stone cottage, with a beautiful patchwork of different [natural materials] repeated throughout.” A perfect canvas for the Show House designers to test new styles, the property branches out from its original dwelling with effortless flow. The house wouldn’t force designers to go in one direction or another, Wight reflects, adding, “It has an organic feeling to it, which creates interesting architectural elements.” One can’t help admiring the fine materials used throughout, such as the granite and limestone, leaded glass windows and great room, with beamed ceiling. The abode’s first addition, built by a Croatian stonemason, matches the original stonework for a seamless transition. “The Show House always gives inspiration,” Wight says. “You see current decorating trends and how they might work in your own house. You experience a multitude of styles, which appeal to people in different ways. This home is more than 5,000 square feet. Explore your favorite rooms and the gardens. It’s the kind of home where you can linger.” The Show House typically evolves over a three-month process, creating a real estate masterpiece – and it’s all done in support of the community. “We’re honored to have been chosen for this signature event, which supports SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital,” Dielmann says. “We’re humbled to be able to give back.”

SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital By Robyn Dexter

ver many decades, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital has worked consistently to maintain its mission of revealing the healing process of God through exceptional health care services. Since 1956, the hospital’s world-class physicians have provided exceptional medical care to thousands of infants and children each year – whether they’re able to pay or not. One aspect of the Cardinal Glennon community, the Glennon Guild, is committed to helping Cardinal Glennon through raising funds, volunteering in the hospital and advancing the welfare of the medical center and its patients. The guild comprises more than 150 women who donate their time and talents for the betterment of Cardinal Glennon. As the beneficiary of this year’s Ladue News Show House, the Glennon Guild will be able to assist with the purchase of a cortical stimulator. Guild member Gretchen Schulte says that the cortical stimulator will be used during surgery to help stop epileptic seizures. “It’s an incredibly expensive piece of equipment, but we will be able to fund it with the Show House’s help,” she says. While many other hospital guilds run the building’s gift shop, that isn’t the case with the Glennon Guild. The guild’s members used to run the gift shop, but no longer do so after realizing that it took time away from their efforts to directly serve patients, which many guild members do. Instead, the guild gets its funding through other avenues, like the Show House, the Glennon Card and the annual fashion show. “We’re

always working to help children with disabilities,” Schulte says. “We do it through God’s help and all the people who are affiliated with the hospital.” The fashion show celebrated its 38th year this past April and raised thousands of dollars for inpatient and outpatient cancer services in the Costas center of the hospital. Additionally, the Glennon Guild is supported by generous donors, which is critical since the guild isn’t affiliated with a university or other hospital. In past years, proceeds from the Show House have helped fund a dialysis reverse osmosis machine, along with aiding in the redesign of the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Diagnostic Imaging Center and Bob Costas Cancer Center. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital provides superior medical care to more than 200,000 infants and children each year in Missouri and Illinois, throughout the country and in many other countries, whether patients can afford to pay for medical care or not. One year, Cardinal Glennon was able to provide more than $3 million in free medical care. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital employs more than 200 of the best pediatric experts in St. Louis practicing across 60 specialties.

Picturesque Dining

Dining Room

Designer: Gigi Lombrano of Gigi Lombrano Interiors By Julia Cain | Photos by Michael Jacob

W

here some saw a room with design-limiting builtins, Gigi Lombrano of Gigi Lombrano Interiors saw possibility. Her dining room is filled with artwork from Atrium Gallery and anchored with gray furniture. A round dining table on an architectural base brings functionality to the room. To soften the space, Lombrano explains the paint color, created by Paint Imagery, has a soft metallic finish with just a touch of shimmer, known as “greige” for gray and beige. The art wall is Lombrano’s favorite part of the dining room. “I loved selecting all of the pieces of art for the niches,” she says. “I have more than 14 artists represented in my space. I think there’s something for everyone … I love that some of the pieces are small and can be used in bookcases or other small spaces. I’ve left some of them propped to suggest easily swapping out pieces as the mood strikes. You don’t have to hang it and leave it forever – move things around!” Outside of the built-in artwork area, Lombrano also added some mismatched seating along the wall, colorful table sculptures, a blue rug and window treatments in an ombre of blues. Lombrano’s biggest consideration was using restraint, she says, noting the importance of properly editing a room. “What restraint brings is an elegance and comfort that clutter doesn’t allow,” she says. “You need breathing space, not only for the art but for standing-around room for guests.” Gigi Lombrano Interiors, 314-707-7291

Sunny and Sparkling

Kitchen/Butler’s Pantry

Designer: Tori Webbe-Hunt of Tori Design By Julia Cain | Photos by Michael Jacob

T

ori Webbe-Hunt of Tori Design says she tried to play up the existing kitchen and butler’s pantry with accessories, flowers, furniture and artwork. The result? Warm and inviting with modern touches. “The flowers and the wood accessories would have to be one of my favorites,” she says of her additions to the rooms. “It just goes to show that bringing current accessories, rugs and furniture into a dated room can bring it back to a current look. It also goes to show that hiring a design professional can help you make your dream home a reality.” Mimicking the wood cabinetry, wood accents in a similar tone can be seen in added cutting boards, centerpieces and a tabletop cookbook holder. At the end of the room, a cozy seating area for two creates the perfect place for breakfast. “I didn’t really have any problems, except I had to change my table to a smaller round and only two dining chairs in the breakfast room,” Webbe-Hunt says of her few design challenges. What the seating area loses in size, it makes up for in comfort, with slipcovered chairs in a fun pattern complete with pillows.

S

maller spaces don’t necessarily make for easier design projects. Designer Amy Herman of brooksBerry Kitchens and Baths took the once-dated powder room and upgraded it with new architectural elements and colors. A blue cabinet sits below a statement sink and dark counter, and brackets were added on the side to allow for a longer countertop. The original terra-cotta tile and light-toned door pair nicely with these cool additions, as well as with the warm-colored circular mirror now placed above the vanity. Herman notes the wallpaper as her favorite addition. “It has a soft-looking texture with a metallic sheen in colors that complement the space,” she says. Some of it was damaged during the installation of the ceiling woodwork, but she says it was able to be repaired. “The light pendant I used had to draw power from one of the existing can lights,” Herman says. “The wood ceiling grid was added to camouflage the connection of the new ceiling pendant while adding visual interest to the space.” A snug fit, it now looks as though it’s always been part of the house. brooksBerry Kitchens and Baths, 751 Old Frontenac Square, Frontenac, 314-872-7720, brooksberry.com

T

he Show House great room features ample standout architectural details, from the tiled flooring to the window-filled walls to the beamed ceiling. A space this expansive and intricate requires bold design for balance. Annie Genovese, Maggie Genovese and John O’Hara from Forsyth accepted the challenge. The finished room features Forsyth’s signature vintage furniture upholstered in high-quality hides paired with colorful art and layered textiles. A four-person game table with vintage chairs sits atop layered rugs. Nearby, the seating area includes two love seats, two armchairs and a lounge surrounding a red-and-zebra rug and petite coffee table. “My favorite part of the room are the twin Milo Baughman love seats opposite each other,” Annie Genovese says. “The golden color of cowhide is warm and inviting, and they are the most comfortable things in the history of furniture.” The finished room differs significantly from the original design, but unlike most changes that are caused by missing items or too-small spaces, this was altered due to an abundance of room. “Our original plan did not include the dining table and our set of 10 midcentury Swedish steel chairs,” Annie Genovese says, noting how happy the team was when they realized there was space for it all. “That room is meant for entertaining, and that includes throwing raucous dinner parties!”

T

he expansive master suite was decorated by designers Teddy Karl, Melissa Hummel and Liz Basler of The Great Cover-Up. The team turned the room into a luxe, traditional escape filled with cozy upholstery. A few small changes were made to the room from the original plan, Karl says: “The nightstands I originally intended were not in stock and would not have arrived in time. Same with the wall sconces. Other than that, just a few tweaks.” The room’s narrow entryway complicated getting the chandelier box inside, he explains, but problems with the space were fairly small. The bed and its surrounding alcove are Karl’s favorite part of the room. “I love the way it turned out,” he says. “[It] exceeded our expectations. I like the way the color is scattered throughout the room, with a neutral base.” The statement wall includes blue-and-white china above the upholstered bed and coordinating nightstand vignettes. At the foot of the bed, a cream love seat features two plush pillows and sits in front of a Blue Willow-patterned coffee table. That color palette extends into the adjoining master bathroom. “I’m also pleased with the more modern paintings,” Karl says. “Normally, I’m very traditional in my taste in art, and this was a very nice surprise.”

Flanking the bed are matching vintage sea-foam chests with Greek key detailing. “With today’s beds often having higher mattresses, a pair of chests worked nicely as nightstands and add a lot of storage to

F

rom the tiled floor with a textured rug to the wood ceiling with a tumbleweed light fixture, interesting details can be found in every inch of the hearth room. Vicki Dreste of Victoria Dreste Designs tackled the unique space. “I’m very happy with the way the room turned out,” Dreste says. “One of my favorite things about the room is the color palette. I love the combination of navy blue and a caramel color. I think those two colors blend and work really well in the space with the tile in the dark wood ceiling.” Size and timing did cause a few changes to her original design, Dreste explains; a rug was not available when she needed it, and a side table appeared too large once in the space. “Neither of these changes affected the overall design of the room,” she says. Another challenge? The light fixture is made of an actual tumbleweed, which gives it both visual interest and serious transportation problems. Dreste explains it cannot be put in a box or set down, but instead must always remain suspended. Victoria Dreste Designs, 314-308-5759, victoriadreste.com

J Knapp of Yours by Design turned the spacious loft into a cozy, family-friendly area. The room features colorblocked walls in blue and white, natural wood tones and layered, traditional fabrics. Multiple seating areas create space for a plethora of activities. “You could read or work a crossword puzzle in the big comfy chairs, stretch out and relax on the sofa, play a game of cards sitting on the polar bear bronzes, work on a school project at the table or play a game,” she says. (And yes, you read that right: The fluffy chairs are actually multiuse bronze polar bears.) “It’s a great family space as well as a party place.” Knapp had to make a few changes from her original design. For example, the polka-dot fabric she planned on using for the drapes wasn’t available on time, so she found a stripe to replace it. “I fell in love with the stripe for the tent flaps, and then I found the blue linen print to put with it,” she says. “Rooms are like a puzzle. I always know what I want in them, but sometimes, quantity or placement will change from the initial concept.” It’s this drape-covered alcove furnished with furry beanbags that Knapp notes as her favorite part of the room. In addition to this space, Knapp decorated the adjoining bathroom with the family in mind, giving it a pirate theme complete with sword curtain rods and a treasure map across the ceiling.

M

uch of the Show House is decorated in neutrals and regal blues, but the lower-level family room is the exception. Outfitted in burnt orange, the space by designers Linda Williams and Ruth Nowlin from Dau Furniture is colorful and retro. Midcentury details can be spotted throughout in accents like blown-glass table decorations, brass accents and arched light fixtures. “We turned a lower-level blank space into one that’s interesting as well as functional for a variety of activities,” Williams says. Both designers note the center of the room as their favorite part. “The bold color just infuses life into a remote, lower-level living space,” Nowlin says. A white sectional sofa and white coffee table sit atop the colorful rug and balance out its bright hue. Lower-level rooms come with a variety of challenges, such as getting large-scale furniture down tight staircases. The Dau Furniture team was, however, able to get it all into the space. Another hang-up? Eyesore doors. “We used a drapery treatment to hide a set of unsightly doors,” Williams says. “Draperies can also be a way to bring interest into a room that lacks architectural details.” Dau Furniture, 15424 Manchester Road, Ellisville, 636-394-3005, daufurniture.com

nne Smith and Liz McGovern of June Roesslein Interiors turned a window-filled room into a green and lush guest suite. Two taupe hues color the walls (North Hampton Beige and Ashley Grey, both by Benjamin Moore) and are paired with airy upholstery throughout. “Architecturally, the room is stunning,” Smith says. Changes to the original design included selecting a new chandelier and sham fabric. “The fabric reselection required revisiting the finish selected on the headboard – a domino effect,” Smith explains. “Our favorite portion of the room has to be the ‘living wall,’ with the two chairs strategically placed next to a round wrapped rattan table,” Smith says. “The tablescape is reflective of a romantic celebration with champagne flutes and a strawberry-chocolate cake. We’re excited to share the entire space with our guests.” The natural details don’t stop with the plants. From woven baskets to the knotted table base, elements of the outdoors are seen throughout. The room features few pieces of wall art, instead focusing on framing the lovely view through the oversize picture By window. The tranquility of the bedroom extends to the adjoining bathroom. Dark woven baskets add a touch of nature and extra storage, and a fur-covered vanity stool in a light hue brings a bit of glam without going overboard.

The exterior of the home is engulfed in fall hues like orange and yellow. “I think our favorite part of the landscape was the walkway up to the front door,” Andria Graeler says of the manicured entryway, flanked with colorful mums and greenery. “Between all the fall color and the planter bowls, it was just a really nice, lush example of how we create a space.” The Chesterfield Valley Nursery team ran into some issues with size, she explains, noting a few plants that were too tall for their original intended locations. Minor adjustments fixed these issues to create a warm and welcoming yard. The outdoor spaces at the house include not just the front entryway but also a side yard complete with an outdoor living room. “I was most excited about this area … [It] has a lot of our large planter pots, and it also had a really nice box Japanese maple to create a more natural feel to that outdoor space,” Andria Graeler says.

Ladue nail salon Tints Polish offers memberships with unlimited polish changes in a trendy, tranquil atmosphere.

magine being able to change your nail polish to match anything from your mood to your outfit – all for one price, any time you like. It’s possible at the Ladue nail salon Tints Polish. The contemporary nail salon, which opened at 10281 Clayton Road in August, offers three unique membership levels, including the Pure Polish Club, which allows clients to receive unlimited classic polish changes for $49 a month. “Nail polish is a fantastic way to accent your personal style in a range of colors and designs, and unlimited polish changes are included in all of our monthly membership packages,” says operations manager Lisha Tang. “We aim to delight our clients with beautiful and professional-looking nails, a modern and clean atmosphere, and a relaxing and hassle-free experience.” The salon has two additional membership packages: Nourishing Nail Club at $99 per month, offering one manicure and one pedicure per month with your choice of The Natural (classic polish) or The Trendsetter (gel polish), along with your choice of unlimited French manicure-style polish or classic polish changes, and Endless Envy Club for $149 a month, offering two manicures and two pedicures per month with your choice of The Natural or The Trendsetter polishes, along with your choice of unlimited French manicure-style polish or classic polish changes. The shop’s services are designed for convenience and simplicity, Tang explains. “We’ve eliminated the hassle of add-ons and confusing pricing,” she says. “You’ll get a great manicure or pedicure for a fixed price.” Gratuities are included in the cost; tips are not accepted. Aside from its memberships, the salon provides “à la carte” manicure and pedicure services for clients not interested in a monthly commitment. Clients who write a review will receive a one-time special of $5 off any service, Tang adds. Tints’ most popular services include pedicures and gel polish manicures. “For pedicures, we offer an extended massage tailored to your preference for firmness,” Tang says. “For gel services, we carry a pioneering line of Japanese gel polishes, which are considered one of the highest-grade professional nail tech products available.” Tang says the shop’s clean and serene environment sets it apart from other salons. “Our newly renovated space is designed with client comfort in mind – elegant and modern décor, immaculate standards for cleanliness and even complimentary adult beverages,” she notes. The salon’s dedication to nail health and

tip-free pricing also distinguishes it from the competition, Tang says. “We want our clients to have beautiful nails without having to compromise on unhealthy practices used in typical salons. We carry a variety of [nontoxic] ‘five-free polishes,’ which are free of harmful ingredients, such as

formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate [DBP], formaldehyde resin and camphor, as found in conventional polishes,” Tang notes. “And we protect our clients from unnecessary ultraviolet [UV] exposure by using LED-drying lamps and LED gel polishes that dry six times faster than conventional UV curing gels.” Tints also is one of two area salons carrying the full line of K. Ferrara Color, a St. Louis brand of five-free polishes. To further promote customers’ nail hygiene, all of the salon’s metal tools are sterilized in a surgical-grade autoclave between clients, and all nail files and buffers are individually packaged and disposed of after each use. “We use ceramic pedicure basins in lieu of traditional whirlpool pedicures, which are often contaminated by clogs and water backflow,” Tang explains. “In addition, we don’t offer acrylic services or use electric drills to ensure that we eliminate unpleasant odors and dust in our salon.” Tints’ staff members are professionally licensed and highly trained manicure and pedicure technicians who are especially attentive to nail

shaping, cuticle care and neat polish application, Tang notes. “Our employees are not incentivized to upsell [products or services],” she says. “Workmanship and professionalism are paramount. If there is any part of our service a customer is not entirely satisfied with, we will do whatever it takes to make it right.” St. Louisans are taking to Tints’ membership packages, Tang says. “Our customers love having fresh-looking nails and unlimited polish changes at one fixed cost. We’re developing a loyal membership base.” Tang invites clients to stop in to experience the salon for themselves and try its fall-hued polishes. “Customers should walk into Tints and expect nothing short of perfection,” Tang notes. “As you enter the shop, you’re immediately welcomed by pleasant aromas, the appealing modern design, the smiling faces of our enthusiastic staff and a complimentary glass of Chablis. Our goal is to make this a soothing destination that all our clients look forward to.” Tints Polish, 10281 Clayton Road, Ladue, 314-896-3826, tintspolish.com

Bedtime Skin Care

‌T

o keep skin youthful and radiant, ladies, implement a bedtime routine involving high-quality products, among them a face wash, an exfoliator, a toner, serum, and eye and face creams. One such skin care routine, involving just five steps, follows: Remove makeup. Do so with both the face and eyes with either a makeup wipe or a face wash. Next, exfoliate. If you own a facial cleansing brush like a Clarisonic, use it; if not, use an exfoliator with a sandy or gritty texture to scrub dead skin and impurities from your face. Tone. Add a gentle toner to a cotton ball, and pat it across your face, excluding the areas near your eyes. While cleansing, toner helps to unclog pores and to rid you of dead skin cells. Apply serum. Serum – easily forgotten but extremely useful – should be applied to cleansed, exfoliated and toned skin. Put on serum before moisturizer to allow the latter to properly penetrate your skin and work wonders. Apply eye cream. Spread eye cream using your ring finger. The delicacy and thinness of skin under your eyes explains why that skin so easily betrays aging

signs – but eye cream prevents fine lines and wrinkles from forming prematurely. Apply facial cream. Using upward motions, apply facial cream not only to your face but also to your neck. The specific type of cream to use depends on the nature of your skin. Those with dry skin should benefit from a

thicker cream; those with oily skin should benefit more from a lighter cream (or a gel-based lotion). Finally, ladies, bear this in mind. No matter your age, it’s never too early to develop a bedtime skin care routine – and the sooner you start such a routine, the healthier your skin will look and feel!

GAME ON!

Thoughts for NOVEMBER

By Frank Cusumano

‌Here are half a dozen things on my mind this month:

1.

4.

2.

5.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tommy Pham should be paid. He doesn’t have to be, and he likely won’t be, but in my opinion, if you’re the best player on the team, the cash-rich organization should reward him. Imagine Dexter Fowler made $16.5 million this year, and Pham, a better player, made $500,000. This year, he’ll make slightly more, but his arbitration doesn’t come up till the following season. It’s not my money, I know, but the man should be paid. I love his skills. I love his attitude. This may not be the most popular opinion, but I think the criticism of Mike Matheny is much too excessive. Is he Tony La Russa in his prime? Is he Whitey Herzog? No and no! However, Matheny lost both closers, he didn’t have a cleanup hitter, and he was given a roster with minimal defensive players. Hall of Famer Rick Hummel brought up a great point, that La Russa got to manage both Albert Pujols and Matt Holliday in the primes of their careers, hitting third and fourth all year long. For the most part, Matheny has a pretty good rapport with his players, and they do play hard for him.

3.

What the Cardinals need and what Matheny needs is a cleanup hitter. His name is Giancarlo Stanton. He’s big, strong and charismatic. The fans deserve to have some star power. They support the franchise with 3.4 million tickets bought. Only the Dodgers sold more. Stanton’s contract is crazy: $295 million left. So is the money coming into the organization? What’s not to like about this marriage? The Marlins need to cut payroll. The Cardinals are flush with cash and desperate for stardom and power. Make it happen!

I love the future of the Blues. I’m hoping they can withstand these injuries to core players. Doug Armstrong is a bit like John Mozeliak. They’re big-picture guys who constantly are thinking about the future and stocking the franchise with talented young players. I think the Blues may be closer to winning it all than the Cardinals. I’m not sure the last time I thought that. The only item of concern is just how good the Central Division is.

I don’t know if there’s anything better in life than watching playoff baseball in the fall, especially when it’s cold outside and you don’t have to worry about going to work – although I do think sitting in a hot tub with a chill in the air watching those games with a beer in your hand is pretty good. The worst is the thing I normally have to do: watch the game on a small screen while I’m editing and writing scripts for the show.

6.

That leads me to my final point – what I’d be doing if I weren’t a sportscaster. I think I could get my busboy job back at Kemoll’s – so I have that going for me, which is nice. I’d also love to be a high school basketball coach. However, the job I’d really love to have one day is to work at Kennelwood Pet Resorts. Spending eight hours a day with a bunch of lovely dogs would be heaven for me.

How long do we wait for a court judgment in Family Law? St a n g e L a w F i r m , P C

Going through a divorce or family law matter can be a tough experience. In some cases, parties are not able to settle their case and the case goes to trial. Trials in a divorce or family law matter can sometimes be done in a day. In other cases, a divorce or family law matter can take multiple days based on the circumstances. The more complex the case, the more time it might take to have the case heard. After a trial finally ends, many wonder how long it will take for the judge to make their decision. Many have watched courtroom television shows and may think that the judge rules from the bench at the end of the trial. If that does not happen, many can become very disappointed. The reality is that every situation is different. What happens can vary greatly based on the jurisdiction, venue and the judge who has heard the case. Thus, it is vital that a party speak to an attorney who is licensed and competent to practice law in their jurisdiction. But in a general sense, parties oftentimes need to temper their expectations in terms of the length of time it takes for a judge to issue a

judgment. In many instances, it can take a judge weeks, if not months, to enter a decision after the conclusion of a divorce or family law trial. When parties hear this, many are confused and dismayed. Many ask, “Why does it take so long many ask?” or “Why can’t the judge just rule from the bench after the trial?” Truth be told, the judge might not have made up their mind after the trial. They might need some time to think it over. If there was a lot of evidence submitted, the judge may need the time to review it all. The judge may want to go back and review the trial transcript as it relates to certain evidence. Judges also may have to make specific legal findings and findings of fact in a written judgment pursuant to the laws in the state in which the case was heard. Thus, it might be inappropriate for the judge to rule from the bench without issuing a written judgment that explains what they found and what law was relied upon. Some judges might feel that they may be better able to explain what their findings are in a written judgment versus trying to explain it from the bench. There is also a risk

as well that parties might be better able to understand the judge’s decision by reading it some time later versus hearing it when emotions are still high right after a trial has ended. Judges also can hear many cases, have busy dockets and other important items on their agenda, etc. This can result in a waiting period as well. These are just a few reasons why the waiting time for a judgment may vary. Stange Law Firm, PC limits their practice to family law matters including divorce, child custody, child support, paternity, guardianship, adoption, juvenile matters, collaborative law and other domestic relation matters. Stange Law Firm, PC gives clients 24/7 access to their case through a secured online case tracker found on the website. They also give their clients their cell phone numbers.

Bedwetting Basics

By Dr. Joseph Kahn

‌T

he dreaded wakeup call of a child who has wet the bed is not a good way to start the day. Bedwetting, also known as enuresis, is urinating while asleep after the age when most children are expected to be dry through the night. Most children are dry well before the age of 5. However, by age 7, a few kids still wet routinely. Boys are more at risk for bedwetting, as are children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or a parent who wet the bed as a child. If your child still wets the bed often despite being older than 7; begins to wet the bed after having been dry through the night for a few months; has painful urination, pink or dark urine, excessive thirst or hunger, or chronic constipation; or snores loudly at night, it’s time to talk with your child’s doctor. The physician may perform a urine test to rule out infection, diabetes and other abnormalities. It’s rare, but on occasion imaging tests may be ordered if an uncommon structural abnormality in the kidneys or bladder is suspected. How can you help your child? Consider these possibilities:

‌Limit the amount of fluid your child drinks after supper, unless your child plays sports in the evening. ‌Avoid drinks with caffeine, which is a bladder stimulant and irritant. ‌Be sure your child urinates before bedtime, and consider waking him or her later in the evening when you yourself are ready for bed. ‌If your child is constipated, discuss with your doctor a recommended treatment regimen. ‌Watch for irritant rashes that can occur when your child is wet at night. Your physician may recommend a nighttime moisture alarm. In my experience, these work well although they require patience. It may take two to three weeks to see initial effects and three to four months to see resolution.

Medications are sometimes prescribed and effective, including DDAVP (the trade name for desmopressin), a hormone that reduces nighttime production of urine. There’s little or no evidence that alternative therapies such as hypnosis, acupuncture, chiropractic therapy and homeopathic herbal remedies are effective. For more information or specialist advice, please visit mercy.net/lnbedwetting. The most important therapy is support and understanding. Your child is not wetting the bed voluntarily, and this is often very embarrassing for him. Be supportive. This too shall pass.

Peerlift connects high school students of all backgrounds to a proven selection of exceptional opportunities for college.

T

he task of choosing a college is no easy feat. Across the St. Louis area and throughout the country, high-school students comb website after website in search of their next step in life. They’re seeking an institution that matches their interests and that offers scholarships to help make college more feasible. Oftentimes, finding the right resources can be a struggle. Enter Peerlift, a student-led national organization that offers hundreds of curated opportunities for high school students – all with financial aid. The 501(c)(3) focuses on helping low- and middle-income students find the resources they need to succeed in their college search. It was started by a group of Coca-Cola Scholar students who saw a need for an online program that connected students to great opportunities – regardless of their financial background. Each year, 150 students across the United States are chosen by the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation to receive $20,000 scholarships to the college of their choice. Among them was Tejas Sekhar, one of the three Missouri students selected to be a Coca-Cola Scholar. He graduated from Saint Louis Priory School in May 2017 and has gone on to attend Northwestern University, based in Evanston, Illinois. During his college search, Sekhar noticed that though many resources he was receiving were tailored to his interests, the price tag was outrageous. He joined the Peerlift team to help spread resources evenly across all future college prospects and reduce inequality across the American school system. The Peerlift website, which launched just a few months ago, provides a simple format for its resources. Under the “Opportunities” tab, students will find awards, college fly-ins, internships, scholarships, studyabroad options and summer programs – all with a simple, clear format for pricing, deadlines and grade level. They’re also able to filter their results based on deadlines, along with additional tags like diversity, service, low income and more. “There’s so much work to be done,” Sekhar says. “Privilege creates inequality among students. [Peerlift] is an equalizer that can promote experiences to students who might not have had this information in the first place.” In Sekhar’s role with Peerlift as a student ambassador, he works with St. Louis schools to ensure that the program’s resources are being distributed to local high schoolers who need those resources the most. Joining him in this local student ambassador role is Will Polster, a Pattonville High School junior. Polster heard about Peerlift through a fellow Pattonville student who now attends Harvard University. She nominated him to be a student representative, and Polster was given the opportunity to help sculpt the nonprofit before it launched. “The main initiative for us as high school ambassadors is outreach,” Polster says. “I work with local school administrators and counselors to integrate Peerlift into their programs and make sure it’s something all students have access to.” Polster says he’s quickly discovered how great a resource pool Peerlift can be and has personally applied to three programs on the site already. “I discovered how essential it is to me in my search, and that’s what motivated me to reach out and help extend it,” he says. Since Peerlift is still fairly new, the student ambassadors are also working with counselors and high school administrators to get feedback on how the material is being presented and make sure it’s being delivered effectively. Polster is hopeful for Peerlift’s future in the St. Louis area and wants to see it being expanded to include many more schools in the area. “In the coming months, I hope to be working more one-on-one and in-person, spreading beyond just schools near Pattonville,” Polster says. “I know we can personalize Peerlift to fit each school.” Sekhar has similar hopes for Peerlift both in St. Louis and across the nation. “Peerlift is a great way to give everyone a fair shot at a great education,” he says. “There’s a fundamental need in society for students to be able to do whatever they want to do, but without a good education, you don’t get the chance. I see how fortunate I am, and I see how much work there is to be done.”

Joel Castillo and Shirley Walla co-own Salina’s 2, and Castillo (a native of Tamaulipas, Mexico) relates that it sports an entirely new menu distinct from that of its Chesterfield counterpart. “We offer taco salads, chimichangas, burritos, enchiladas, tacos, quesadillas and fajitas, and then we have things like tripe, menudo, [tacos al] pastor and barbacoa, tortas and whole fried tilapia that Americans might not be as familiar with,” says Castillo, who creates Salina’s 2 dishes using recipes from his mother and grandmother. Each meal begins with complimentary chips and

house-made bean dip – a blend of pinto beans, melted cheese, butter and nacho salsa. Castillo prides himself on making everything from scratch, including frying tortilla shells to order for his crispy tacos. Highlights from the menu include pollo feliz with grilled chicken breast, shrimp, onions, bell peppers and tomatoes. Another popular pick, parrillada, incorporates steak and chicken fajita meat, chorizo sausage, avocado, queso fresco, onions, bell peppers and tomatoes. Additional specialties include chile relleno and sun devil pork featuring grilled, seasoned pork tenderloin topped with sweet jalapeño sauce. All of those dishes sound incredibly

ituated in St. Louis’ Bevo neighborhood since August, Salina’s 2 features an extensive menu of Mexican-American favorites and original dishes, as well as a host of authentic Mexican fare. The original Salina’s opened in 1992 in Chesterfield. Since then, a few other siblings have opened and closed – one in Town and Country and another in St. Peters. Salina’s 2 fills the space once occupied by Bosnia Gold, with an occupancy permit for 128 inside and another 38 on a pet-friendly patio. Inside, wood-paneled ceilings and stone walls are accented with festive decorations.

tempting as gustatory precursors to a viewing of Titus Androgynous from the YoungLiars collective. From the Salina’s 2 bar, patrons can choose from soft drinks, Mexican and domestic beers, wine, cocktails and more. Specials throughout the week include discounted margaritas and micheladas – what Castillo claims as the best cure for a hangover – with beer, spicy and sour sauces, tomato juice, lime and chili powder. Also, a happy hour menu’s coming soon.

ln

‌Story:  ’Tis a bloody time, indeed, when Roman general Titus Androgynous returns victorious after defeating the Goths. Murder and mayhem reign supreme, as described in song by a master of ceremonies named Valentine. Tamora, queen of the Goths, plots revenge against Titus for the death of her eldest son, Alarbus, encouraged by her lover, the devious Aaron the Moore. Her bloodthirsty surviving sons, Demetriass and Chiron, take sadistic pleasure in raping and torturing Titus’ daughter, Lavinia, chopping off both of her hands and cutting out her tongue. The Goths then offer a reprehensible deal to Titus, offering to free his daughter in exchange for his own severed hand. They don’t reckon on Titus’ resilience, however, setting the stage for some creative ways for the ruler to shed copious blood as he exacts his crazed revenge. Highlights:  YoungLiars celebrates Halloween with its bloody tongue-in-cheek adaptation of Titus Andronicus, the Bard’s most violent play. Artistic director Chuck Harper’s version blends an entertaining musical score with commedia dell’arte and considerable blood and guts in this amusing, albeit repetitive, presentation. Other Info:  YoungLiars’ outrageous, over-the-top approach to Titus Andronicus is especially fun in Act I, before it becomes just more of the same throughout its second act. A major reason for the show’s success is Michael Ferguson’s witty, finger-snapping score, with original musical compositions by Paul Cereghino. The steady beat is pleasant, while the lyrics are wry. David Blake’s ghastly scenic design incorporates a dirty sheet of plastic hanging in the background, which opens onto a bare stage save for a table suitable for maiming a body – or four. Ben Lewis lights it all in ways that heighten the macabre effect and grisly humor. Harper cleverly arranges his players so that an audience can’t really see how the bloody prosthetics supplied by Roger Speidel and Jim Wulfsong are applied or how “blood”-gushing devices enable players to spew copious amounts of red onto the stage. Katy Keating and friends deserve extra applause for their perpetual mopping of excess fluids from the space. Harper’s enthusiastic cast delivers a number of fine performances, playing to the hilt this garish version of the Italian comic theatrical form known as commedia dell’arte centuries ago. Plenty of exaggerated emotions match the ridiculous amount of bloodshed in the story, which by its nature allows for amusing interpretations. Cereghino is engaging as the flippant Valentine, offering commentary with a dry wit while he and percussionist Michael Ferguson provide the intrusive, but welcome, music from stage left. Jonah Walker is properly vexed and confused as the morally compromised title character, whose ill-advised decisions

put so much anger and villainy in motion. Maggie Conroy is grand and glorious as the imperious Tamora, hatching nefarious plots against Titus while enjoying mutual lust with Aaron the Moore. The latter is convincingly etched by Erin Renee Roberts, who is highlighted with some bizarre makeup of her own whilst Aaron sews the seeds of contempt. Ellie Schwetye and Amanda Wales have a jolly good time portraying Quintas Androgynous and Martius Androgynous, decadent sons of Titus, and then ratchet up the vile and filth to another level as Tamora’s soulless sons Chiron and Demetriass. Katy Keating amuses as Tamora’s son, Alarbus, who meets a gruesome end at the behest of Titus. She also portrays Titus’ son, Mutius, who, too, is killed by the bloodthirsty ruler. So she has a tough time generally, although she does get to portray Young Luscious, grandson of maniacal ruler Titus. Isaiah de Lorenzo looks effectively crazed as the conniving Saturnanus, son of the later emperor, and Mitch Eagles does well as his manipulated brother Bassianus as well as Titus’ son, Luscious. Rachel Tibbetts has a bloody good time as the most unfortunate Lavinia, while Jeff Skoblow limps along as the doddering Old Marcus Androgynous, father of Titus. YoungLiars has the good taste to mount this decadent production during the Halloween season, performing for a sold-out audience on opening weekend. To be sure, Titus Androgynous is as much treat as trick.

HEATHER BENNETT

t a glance, the beribboned rectangular solid looks less like an enigmatic gift than an outsize ice cube darkened by a black background. At more than a glance, though, it looks much, much colder than any mere chunk of frozen agua – degreesKelvin cold. The perplexing present in question forms the focus of a 2015 piece of art by St. Louisan Heather Bennett titled Patron for Stan, a 65- by 44-inch digital photograph printed on treated all-cotton paper. It numbers among an octet of similar works by her in an exhibition entitled “Photos of Gifts” on display at Clayton’s Bruno David Gallery. The dreadful frigidity of Patron for Stan derives, ironically enough, from an element of indisputable fire: the visage of a raven-tressed beauty printed, whether actually or virtually, on the gift’s wrapping paper near its base. The woman’s head rests or appears to rest on the left triceps of a shirtless, bearded rake. (Asleep? Dead? Who knows?) Moreover, her expression conjures that of some mid-20th-century Hollywood film noir diva – she rather resembles the now-littleknown American actress Carol Ohmart – albeit a diva

ready to defenestrate someone. Her heavily lipsticky mouth has congealed into a terrifying scowl, while her kohled feline eyes have become a glare sharp enough to lase a girder. The woman behind that woman earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in printmaking from Washington University in St. Louis; Bennett then earned a Master of Fine Arts in painting from New York City’s Hunter College. She currently serves as a lecturer at Washington University. Unfortunately, regarding the manifold mysteries posed by Patron for Stan, including its title, Bennett (as is an artist’s prerogative) provides few clues in reflecting on the work and its related works. “Photographic images have traditionally depicted space, revealing people and objects,” she states. “They are the stuff of illusion. They are also things. “At the intersection of these identities is a kind of gooey vacillation, as we look at and through a photographic image in contemporary culture. This work seems to depict exactly what the series title, ‘Photos of Gifts,’ describes. “However, objects are often wrapped with magazine images complicating illusionistic space, as well as

obscuring object identities. Women acting as objects for magazine advertisements are subtly transformed here to the focused subjects of the images, only to then be flattened, inextricable from the object portrait, as they are wrapped around that object and tied with a bow. The subject/object reversal of the female form gets a seasickening treatment. “The small act of wrapping a gift becomes a potent metaphor, exploding within its supposedly quiet, often assumed-to-be-feminine place.” It bears noting that those wishing to contemplate Patron for Stan and its seven related pieces at their real size have roughly a week yet to do so. Bennett’s “Photos of Gifts,” which opened Oct. 14 at the Bruno David Gallery, will continue to run there till Nov. 11. In the context both of Halloween and of the mysteries implicit in that exhibition, some visitors may have to strain not to pack a deerstalker and a meerschaum.

on Japanese art By Bryan A. Hollerbach | Photos courtesy of Pulitzer Arts Foundation

Two new pulitzer arts Foundation exhibitions give insight into rare and arcane visual works from the East Asian archipelago.

A

s suggested by two related exhibitions opening today at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation, art invites and often compels us to view the world in a new light, whether in Ladue – or in the Land of the Rising Sun. “Living Proof: Drawing in 19th-Century Japan” and “Rough Cut: Independent Japanese Animation,” the exhibitions in question, both run till March 3, with the former organized by Pulitzer associate curator Tamara H. Schenkenberg and independent curator Kit Brooks and the latter by Pulitzer assistant curator Stephanie Weissberg. Schenkenberg’s exhibition centers on 70-plus preliminary pen/brush works created for use or potential use in woodblock printmaking during Japan’s Edo and Meiji periods (respectively, 1603 to 1868 and 1868 to 1912). Weissberg’s focuses on a trio of brief pieces of animation – two 35-millimeter films transferred to video, as well as a third digital offering – created in 1929, 1961 and 2008. Both exhibitions illuminate the ways in which creators in their respective media produced or produce art in Japan, with Schenkenberg and Weissberg helpfully distinguishing between them and similar artwork in the Western tradition. “These works are not ‘studies’ in the conventional sense, wherein the artist records observations from life,” says Schenkenberg of “Living Proof” (whose title puns on the technical art definition of proof, meaning, loosely, a preliminary woodcut or other print to ensure quality before a full run). “Rather, many of the works in the show mark interstitial points in the trajectory of the longer woodblock printing process. While some artists in Japan did draw from nature, in order to refine and advance their skills most artists trained by copying the works of a master artist in the studio or from a copybook, often for many years. “It’s also important to note that there’s no simple term for drawing in Japanese; instead, a number of words describe the variant products of

draftsmanship, based on both the work’s intended function and the circumstances of its production.” Similarly, Weissberg differentiates between the three works in “Rough Cut” – by title, The Golden Flower by Noburō Ōfuji, Stamp Fantasy by Yoji Kuri and Daumenreise #6 Kyoto by Maya Yonosho – and the products of mainstream anime, Japanese animation ranging from the Americanized 1960s’ Speed Racer to 1997’s Princess Mononoke. “These films are divergent from what many might commonly associate with anime,” says Weissberg of her exhibition. “The exact definition of anime is contested among film scholars, but some would argue that the films included in ‘Rough Cut’ represent a separate lineage due to a number of factors, including the release date, format and distribution method. “Despite their differences, the films share many of the same early roots as more commercially oriented animation in Japan, including the influence of manga, or Japanese comic books and graphic novels. The films on view in ‘Rough Cut’ offer a broadened perspective on Japanese animation, providing insight into how early independent Japanese animation and attention to the material histories of paper paved the way for later experimental films.” The two Pulitzer curators likewise provide enlightening commentary on the procedural backgrounds of their exhibitions, early and late, with Schenkenberg explaining the scarcity of prelims like those showcased in “Living Proof.” The Pulitzer’s brief on them states that such prelims frequently hit the circular file and that “surviving examples have

seldom been collected, studied or exhibited”; that brief also positions “Living Proof” as “the first U.S. exhibition in three decades to explore work of this kind.” Schenkenberg adds: “Many of the works were destroyed as a necessary part of the printing process – a carver pasted the drawing onto a woodblock, dampened the paper to roll the top layer of fibers away and reveal the lines, and then carved into the woodblock through the paper. Other works may have been discarded as unimportant because they were viewed largely as archival rather than artistic material. “The drawings that do survive to the present day were largely retained or salvaged by individuals that recognized their value as educational or artistic documents, including students, dealers and family members. It seems likely that some works were saved because students bound them into albums. Many of the drawings by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, for instance, appear to have come from the same album. … Additionally, some drawings survived because the print series for which they were created were never realized.” Reflecting the comparative youth of the medium on display in “Rough Cut,” Weissberg likewise sketches the milieu in which Stamp Fantasy and Daumenreise #6 Kyoto, at least, arose. “Post-World War II, many of the production practices in Japan have mirrored those in the United States,” she says. “Japanese animators began using celluloid in the postwar period at the same time the industry saw a rise in major animation studios that produced relatively high-budget, feature-length films. These films employed dozens of designers and artists who helped achieve the overall project, and this practice continues today with digital films.” Ironically, the subject matter common among the works in “Living Proof” sounds eerily similar to what might appear in much commercial anime today – or, for that matter, at the average U.S. cineplex. Beyond the natural environment and everyday happenings, Schenkenberg mentions “scenes from brothels and the Kabuki theater, in addition to supernatural beings, [and] historical and literary figures.” She also enlarges on the procedural background to Japanese printmaking of the two historic periods involved, further suggesting the rarity of the “Living Proof” works. “The effort and time taken to create them varied by the artist or studio,” Schenkenberg says. “Some artists in the Edo period produced as many as 40,000 designs, while others produced 10,000 or fewer. It also depended on if multiple people were involved in creating a single drawing – sometimes the master artist would produce a design and pass it to a senior pupil, who would fill in any details left blank.” Finally, she also partly explains the curious, if fortuitous, way in which some of the exhibition’s art survived – itself suggestive of an intriguing cultural divergence between the U.S. and its Pacific ally. “Some of these works were mounted in albums, which gives art historians insight into how they were viewed,” Schenkenberg says. “Rather than public spaces such as museums, art in Japan was typically viewed in private spaces. The preservation of works in an album format supports this type of localized and occasion-specific viewing, as albums allow for more intimate interaction with the drawings.” Now, thanks to the Pulitzer, those works have, in an ironic way, traveled 180 degrees – from album viewing in Japan to museum viewing here.

Each month, the two restaurant locations feature a local nonprofit and donate 100 percent of one day’s earnings to the charity. Give Back Tuesdays take place on the fourth Tuesday of the month at the restaurant’s Rock Hill location, and take place on the second Tuesday of the month at the new location in Town and Country. In October, proceeds from the Rock Hill location went to Lydia’s House, a local nonprofit that works in faith to end domestic violence by providing transitional housing for battered women and children. Proceeds from the Town and Country location went to Team Activities for Special Kids, a nonprofit that provides athletic and social opportunities for children and young adults with special needs in the St. Louis area.

Since the initiative’s inception in 2014, Give Back Tuesdays have raised more than $150,000 for local charities. Katie Collier, who co-owns the restaurants with her husband, Ted, says these monthly events are a great way to help out the community that has supported them through the years. “This is a great time of the year to give back,” she says. “We have a lot of different noodles in various shapes and colors, so it makes a really pretty gift,” Collier says. Katie’s Pizza & Pasta Osteria also provides catering services for the holidays for parties of all sizes. In addition, the new Town and Country location is approximately 40 percent larger than the Rock Hill location, making it perfect for bigger parties. “We can handle more groups, large parties and walk-ins in the new space,” Collier says. “We encourage people to use us for catering for their holiday events.” Collier speaks highly of the staff of both restaurant locations, noting that most of the top
