T
he School of Art Annual Spring Dance Concerts will be held on Thursday, May 30, and Friday, May 31 and Saturday, June 1 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, June 2 at 2:30 p.m. in Wellin Hall, Hamilton College. Guest choreographer Larry Keigwin has created a new work, Pivot Step, to celebrate Nancy Long’s 30 years as Director of the Dance Program. Amanda Thomas, Trevor Jones, Elizabeth Andrews, Angela Mia Belmonte, and Hannah Straney travelled to New York City to learn this piece which will be presented at each performance.
final movement of Down to the River will also be performed as an encore on the Ballet Program. This year Kathy Ryan will premiere two new works: Rock Me Amadeus, a whimsical tap dance with a twist on classical music featuring 23 dancers dressed in period costumes complete with Mozart-style; and The Rhythm Divine reminiscent of a timeless Parisian Bistro, danced by the select senior ensemble. An audience favorite, I Like Mike, features a record number of highly talented young dancers, 54 in all, who will perform to the music of Michael Jackson in a fast-paced and entertaining piece. The Saturday night and Sunday matinee repertory program opens with reconstructions of two short ballets: “Raymonda Variations” performed by twelve dancers in elegant white and gold tutus has been staged by Lynn Bollana and Nancy Long after the choreography of Marius Petipa. Graduation Ball staged after David Lichine is a wildly entertaining story ballet about the escapades of young women and men meeting for the first time at a ball. Guest dancer Nik Allen will partner alternately Hannah Straney and Elizabeth Andrews in the lead Pas De Deux. A bold and flirtatious girl in outrageous pigtails, danced by Anna McEvoy-Melo, captures the attention of all the cadets. In the end, however, the Headmistress and Head Master appear to have had the most fun of the evening.
Keigwin is known as one of the hottest young choreographers in New York City and his company has received accolades for his fresh, edgy and humorous take on modern dance.

POPism, The Warhol Sixties by Andy Warhol and Susan Hackett
Pen and Watercolor Images Featured on Cards in Gift Gallery
T
he artwork of Deirdre Turner is now available at the Gift Gallery. Deirdre has a charming selection of pen and watercolor images available as packaged blank cards that make a great Mother's Day gift idea. Deirdre Turner grew up in post-war Britain where her early childhood was filled with bleak grays and beiges of a British boarding school. The whimsical pen and watercolor paintings that characterize Deirdre's work perhaps reflect the desire to reframe those early years in brighter colors. Twenty years as a pre-K teacher further influenced her art. The vibrancy and energy of young children inspires Dee's use of color, whimsy, and spontaneity.

Exhibition and Book Signing Celebrates Local Artist Henry DiSpirito
U
tica sculptor Henry DiSpirito had a profound effect on his community and the art world. An exhibition of his works from the MWPAI permanent collection will be on view May 10 through September 1 in honor of a new book on DiSpirito. Breathing Life into Stone: The Sculpture of Henry DiSpirito by Ashley Hopkins-Benton and published by Fenimore Art Museum, Cooperstown, is a comprehensive exploration of Henry DiSpirito’s Henry DiSpirito (1898-1995), Young Bison, 1961, life and a celebration of stone, 14 ½ x 15 x 13 ½ in., stone. Museum his legacy. Purchase, 60.217.
Born in Castleforte, Italy in 1898, DiSpirito began working in stone with his father, who was a stonemason. After emigrating to America in 1921, DiSpirito became a stonemason and bricklayer. He pursued his artistic aspirations at Munson-Williams-Proctor, where he studied sculpture with Richard Davis in the 1940s. DiSpirito’s method of directly carving stone was partly determined by his training, but greatly influenced by the modernist sculpture which he was exposed to under Davis. DiSpirito received much recognition during his lifetime. He exhibited at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Art Institute of Chicago, and his work is in numerous collections, including MWPAI’s Museum of Art. DiSpirito’s sculpture Leaping Frog is among the Museum’s earliest acquisitions. In 1961 DiSpirito retired from construction work. From 1963 until his death in 1995 he was Artist-in-Residence at Utica College. DiSpirito is best known locally for his home sculpture garden, his presence in Utica, and his frequent forays to fish on Otsego Lake.

The accompanying catalogue won four awards including citations from The Association of Art Museum Curators, Historic New England, the Victorian Society in America, and the Victorian Society Metropolitan Chapter. The Wall Street Journal referred to her summer 2012 exhibition at MWPAI, Shadow of the Sphinx: Ancient Egypt and Its Influence, as “delightful and memorable.” Anna’s periodical publications include articles for The Magazine Antiques, 19th Century (the magazine of the Victorian Society in America), and book reviews.
