8 FOO FEST FIELd GUIdE _ b y P HILIP EIL Foo Fest is “AS220’s signature event where all its parts come together,” a celebration of “the creative spirit of Providence and Rhode Island.” That’s how gallery director Neal Walsh describes it. The bash is a sprawling sensory overload of music, food, art, an Anarchist Book Fair, and a pneumatic tube system that delivers advice from comic book characters. And so much more. Dig into the layers of goodness — and get an explication of this week’s cover art from the artist himself.

Phillipe + Jorge’s Cool, Cool World

good old days on the hill a history lesson; more caprio follies; a good man Longtime Biggest Little

residents are getting a huge f chuckle from Federal Hill busi-

ness owners’ indignation over the fact that the neighborhood is now being viewed as a hotbed of violent crime. P&J remember the not-so-recent past when Da Hill was regarded as a quiet place full of small markets, a vending machine company, and bustling ethnic society clubs. You wouldn’t find many people raising a ruckus, primarily because they had an aversion to broken limbs or bullets to the back of the head.

Yes, those were the Mayberry days of Federal Hill, despite scurrilous yellow journalists describing the area as the hub of organized crime in New England.

Raymond Patriarca would sit quietly (albeit with a stare that could melt your face and innards) at his office of the National Cigarette Service, with local residents sighing, “Why can’t they just leave that poor man alone?” when he was visited by federal law enforcement agents taking a break from bugging every phone from Route 95 to Valley Street and snapping pictures of everyone who walked in and out of the Atwells Ave storefront.

In those days people simply spoke of “Raymond,” who was on a first name basis with the public like “Elvis” or “Marilyn.”

And who could argue with all the boisterous fun and kooky antics Raymond’s crowd brought to local clubs and restaurants, where one could discuss opinions of who might win a sporting contest with nickel, dime, and 10 thou bets? And where the checks mysteriously vanished at the end of a feast?

They were a colorful group of rascals with nicknames like “Baby Shacks,” “The Blind Pig,” “Joe Onions,” “Bobo,” and “The Moron,” all of whom loved their mothers and gave freely to the local Catholic Church. OK, so they all had no visible means of support and showed unfriendly dispositions on occasion — which meant most people made sure to always sit with their backs to the wall — but all the talk of “made men,” “swimming with the fishes” and, most absurdly, “The Mafia” (whatever that means?) was just a frivolous verbal accessory to everyday life on glorious Federal Hill. As Raymond’s attorneys always said, “There is no such thing as the ‘Mafia.’ ” And if you can’t take a mob lawyer’s word as the truth, whom can you trust?

And crime-free? You bet. You saw no graffiti on buildings, and

the idea of a rape was a non-starter in Mr. Raymond’s Neighborhood, unless the perpetrator had a rocket ship prepared to take off for Mars, where he would still no doubt be tracked down and shorn of his wedding tackle.

So P&J can understand the feelings of today’s upstanding business owners about places like the $3 Bar, where three singletons gets you a Captain and Coke, and enough Dutch courage to call out anyone who looks at you the wrong way.

How these new establishments, which care so little about the Opie-and-Andy way of life that has forever been at the heart of Federal Hill, could now see to disrespect it leaves a bad taste in P&J’s mouths — sort of like the sapor that miscreants in Raymond’s reign tasted from a .22 caliber slug lodged in their tonsils. Those were the “good old days.”

A fAmily AffAir

Speaking of Italian families, when it comes to overplaying your hand, you can always depend on the Caprio family, notable the grasping Judge Frank Sr., golden-boy-in-waiting Frank Jr., and young political insider David.

Frank Sr., the ambitious municipal court judge in Providence who actually got WLNE-ABC6 to air his courtroom proceedings in an embarrassment called Caught In Providence, has long been seen as the hyper-pushy father who bullied his sons into the political arena. This effort has come with some success — but never enough, it appears. Frankie Jr. is the former state general treasurer now running again for that office, which he held prior to running for governor in 2010. Unfortunately, young Frankie managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in that race when he told President Barack Obama

to “shove” his endorsement when it became evident that Barry O. was in the corner of his former US Senate colleague, Linc Chafee.

This verbal gaffe and lack of basic courtesy to a sitting Democratic president cost Frankie Jr. the election in our deep blue state. He eventually staggered across the finish line in third place.

Now we have the manchild, David, embroiled in the Beach Blanket Bozo affair that involves state Rep. Peter Palumbo (DCranston) and their alleged collusion on food concession contracts for the Misquamicut, “Scah-Bro,” and Roger Wheeler state beaches (credit to WJAR Channel 10’s Parker Gavigan for breaking the story last week).

Not one to flee a fight when he is in the right (honk!), David immediately quit his post as chairman of the Rhode Island Democratic Party, citing the fact that he was too busy to give

proper support to Dem candidates statewide.

The Caprios have apparently never believed they had to play by the rules of government or civil society. Not only did Frank Senior show an abominable lack of humility and bad taste in “starring” in Caught In Providence, but he had a run-in with the state Ethics Commission while chair of the RI Board of Governors for Higher Education, when he helped to arrange a $41,000 job for Donna Mesolella, wife of former Rep. Vincent Mesolella, a month before the couple held a fundraiser at their Lincoln home for — wait for it — Democratic gubernatorial candidate Frank T. Caprio. That event raised $30,000 for Junior.

Now David is carrying on the proud family traditions.

Legalisms aside, the whole Caprio-Palumbo smoke-andmirrors concession deal stinks like a couple of dead eels washed up on the beach. And as P&J always say, if it looks like two eels, squirms like two eels, and talks like two eels, it’s probably another good ol’ boy insider deal in Quahog Central.

JAmes BrAdy

P&J would like to add a few words about James Brady, the former White House Press Secretary who passed away at age 73 on Monday.

Ronald Reagan had only been president for a couple of months when John Hinckley attempted to assassinate him outside a hotel in Washington, DC, in March of 1981. Four people were shot that day, with only the President and Brady seriously wounded. Brady was confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life but, as his family noted in a statement released after his passing, “His zest for life was apparent to all who knew him, and despite his injuries and the pain he endured every day, he used his humor, wit and charm to bring smiles to others and make the world a better place.”

Brady, along with his wife Sarah, became leading voices for gun control and, in 1993, the Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act was signed into law by then-President Bill Clinton. It is a measure that has blocked an estimated 2 million gun sales to “criminals, domestic abusers and other dangerous people,” according to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

The press briefing room at the White House is named for the former press secretary. He was a good man who made a difference. ^

Mounted Patrol

Anniversaries

With tales of brawls, bookies, and ‘Blood Alley,’ the Providence PD turns 150

“I call him the Buddy Cianci of the 19th century,” Providence City Archivist Paul Campbell says, pointing to the portrait of Providence’s 9th, 11th, and 13th mayor, Thomas A. Doyle, hanging in Campbell’s office on the fifth floor of City Hall. In 1864, in his first inaugural address, Doyle — who held office through 1869, then again from 1870 to 1881, then again from 1884 to 1886 — called for the establishment of the Providence Police Department. He was, as Campbell explains, a micromanager who designed the badges and buttons on the city’s first police uniforms.

It’s rich, obscure details like these, combined with vivid images from Providence’s past, that fill the newly released book marking the PPD’s 150th anniversary, Images of America: Providence Police Department. Ever heard of John A. Murray? He’s the bareknuckle, brawling cop who helped clean up “Blood Alley,” the row of saloons near the corner of Westminster and Union streets in the late 1800s. What about Arthur “Daddy” Black?

That would be the celebrated World War I veteran turned Jazz Age gangster who ran an illegal numbers pool that got him dubbed “Providence’s Richest Negro.”

Campbell co-authored the book along with two retired Providence police officers, John Glancy and George Pearson. And through pictures and captions, it provides a surprisingly comprehensive timeline of policing in Providence. Starting back in the colonial days when petty crimes were punishable by humiliation, the book oscillates from minutia (the first police badges were brass) to more significant developments like the evolving role for women on the force.

The Phoenix met with the authors last week to talk about their book, the history of the Providence Police Department, and what it was like to be part of Providence’s finest. Our conversation has been edited and condensed.

FBI agent was able to grab one of the guys and throw him to the ground, and then I jumped on top with the machine gun. And while we had him pinned down we realized we didn’t have any handcuffs.

That dramatic photograph was me yelling to someone to get some handcuffs. I did not know the Journal-Bulletin was there. [The photographer] did get an award for that picture.

It was a tense moment. Had they shot at us we would have had to kill them, and of course there were civilians involved. That’s the reality of police work.

GLANCY: I was on the team that hit the door to the apartment at the housing projects. We went into the apartment and they went out the windows. My God, those guys, it was an army. Those guys had tons and tons of guns.

f

PROVIDENCE IN THE LATER 19TH CENTURY SOUNDS LIKE THE MOVIE GANGS OF NEW YORK: DIVIDED ALONG ETHNIC LINES, AND FULL OF SALOONS, THIEVES, AND CAREER CRIMINALS. NOT AN EASY PLACE TO POLICE. CAMPBELL: It was a challenge for the police

to handle. The city [was] growing rapidly, almost quadrupling in population over a 40-year period. Alien peoples [were] coming in successive waves of immigration. And just communicating became a difficult problem.

YOU TELL THE STORY OF HOW, IN 1938, WITH HELP OF THE GOVERNOR’S OFFICE, INFAMOUS MOB BOSS RAYMOND PATRIARCA WAS RELEASED AFTER SERVING ONLY MONTHS OF AN ARMED ROBBERY SENTENCE. HOW MUCH OF PATRIARCA’S SUCCESS SHOULD BE ATTRIBUTED TO CORRUPTION? PEARSON: There’s no doubt about it. He was a political entity — and not just in the city of Providence, but in the state of Rhode Island. You can’t overlook prohibition: the mingling of regular citizens and the criminal element, they had a coziness about them.

The citizens wanted alcohol. After it became

THERE’S LITTLE MENTION OF POLICE MISCONDUCT IN THE BOOK. WHY WAS THIS FACET OF THE DEPARTMENT’S HISTORY NOT COVERED? CAMPBELL: If you want to criticize it, you

might say it’s more celebratory of the police history and less analytical than a more academically oriented book would be. Does the department deserve a much more analytical look? Absolutely.

CITY HISTORY (Clockwise from left) Mayor Thomas A. Doyle; a mugshot of Raymond Patriarca; a SWAT team member rappelling. legalized those relationships continued. And he’s part of that.

I WAS SURPRISED TO READ HOW LITTLE VIOLENCE THERE WAS DURING PROHIBITION. TODAY’S PROVIDENCE HAS ALMOST 100,000 FEWER PEOPLE, BUT THE CITY AVERAGED ALMOST FIVE TIMES AS MANY HOMICIDES BETWEEN 2000 AND 2010 THAN IN THOSE YEARS. CAMPBELL: Back then you had sort of

crimes of opportunity. Now they’re almost crimes of necessity. You have people hooked on drugs . . . and also the breakdown of the family unit.

PEARSON: I also think you had institutions like the churches that kept people in line for the most part. And I think people felt upwardly mobile as well.

GLANCY: Providence [today] has a gang issue.

The ages of these kids who are killing themselves are not 25, not 45, they’re all 19, 18, 17 year-old kids. It’s not even business, it’s turf.

IT SEEMS LIKE CRIMINALS USED TO BE MORE PROFESSIONAL. PEARSON: They were aware of their status as criminals, and their relationship — I’m going to say it’s a special relationship — with the police, and . . . the politicians. I used to see Raymond Patriarca as a young beat patrolman. He’d wave to you and you’d wave to him. [He looked like] a little innocuous Italian man that you’d never suspect.

I knew that there were FBI agents, and state police, and Providence police watching him,

watching me watch him. So when people say that, “Wow, the Hill was safe and quiet,” yeah, it was quiet, but there were plenty of things going on underneath it and you wouldn’t dare say what [those were] ...because you wouldn’t be around for very long.

THIS QUESTION IS FOR MR. PEARSON: THERE’S A PICTURE OF YOU FROM 1988 ON PAGE 115,WITH AN FBI AGENT AND ANOTHER COP. YOU’RE TOTING A SUBMACHINE GUN, AND THE THREE OF YOU ARE KNEELING OVER AN APPREHENDED SUSPECT. WHAT’S THE STORY BEHIND THAT PICTURE? PEARSON: A gang came down from Boston.

They were going to take over the drug trade in Providence. They set their headquarters up at the Holiday Inn opposite the police department — probably not the brightest group.

They were dangerous. We were working in conjunction with the State Police. The State Police were going to use their SWAT team to take down the unit that was at the Holiday Inn. And the Providence Police were going to go out to the Hartford Projects and hit the other group that was assembling up there.

The raid went down. I was on the outside perimeter. And the team went in, and the next thing I knew the criminals started coming out of the second floor window. There were about two or three of them. Then they started running towards us as we ran towards them. And in between us there were civilians. I was saying, “Oh my God, I hope I don’t have to shoot because I’ve got civilians.” It was chaos, people screaming and yelling. An

WHAT WERE THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES PROVIDENCE’S POLICE DEPARTMENT FACED WHEN YOU WERE ON THE FORCE? WHAT ARE THEY TODAY? PEARSON: Every day is a challenge.

AND THAT’S STILL TRUE? GLANCY: Absolutely.

PEARSON: You’re dealing with the absur-

dity of life, and the cities contain that. You’re dealing with the unpredictability as [you] try to put predictability on this incredible energy of different people out there with different goals and aspirations.

ARE THERE THINGS THAT YOU RELUCTANTLY LEFT OUT OF THE BOOK? IF SO, WHAT ARE SOME EXAMPLES? PEARSON: We can’t really show the up-

close photographs of death [which run] the gamut from just a car accident with a person killed in it to a bloody shooting. But that’s our reality.

GLANCY: If I had a nickel for every time I’d have to take my shoes off and leave them on my front steps before I walked into my house because in my boots, in the soles of my shoes, were bits and parts of human flesh. That’s a hell of a job to work.

PEARSON: Just one more comment. We are really the first responders and we are the eyewitnesses. Whether you like the police or hate the police, it doesn’t matter. We are a constant. We have to be, for people to live together in this city, in the City of God, in the City of Providence [laughing].

There are currently two exhibits covering the history of the Providence Police: one at City Hall (25 Dorrance St), the other at the Providence Public Library (150 Empire St). Also, August 9’s WaterFire – beginning downtown at sunset, 7:55 pm — will be celebrate the P.P.D’s 150th anniversary. More info at waterfire.org. _Jesse Geman

foo fest field guide Get ready for aS220’S frenzy of muSic, art, and attitude

_By Ph iL iP e iL

WHO’S PLAYING?

The concept of Foo Fest is simple: it’s AS220’s annual, one-day extravaganza taking place on Empire Street between Washington and Westminster.

But, in practice, things can get complicated. This year’s Fest will feature a indie/punk/post-hardcore band called Ask the Dead, a vegan ice cream truck, an Anarchist Book Fair, a nine-year old rapper, a .gif photo booth, a performance by a industrial-music legend, and a pneumatic tube system that delivers advice from comic book characters.

It can all be a bit overwhelming — that is, unless you have some kind of guide to provide info and context. That’s what we’re here for.

Read on, Foo friends.

f

There are 23 musical acts performing on two stages — one indoor, one outdoor — at this year’s Fest, and they range from AS220 Youth’s hip-hop squad, Zukrewe, to the one-woman experimental dance music project, Samantha Vacation, to the guitarmarinated Americana of Rich Ferri and the Wealth On the Water.

We’ve done our share of background research on this epic bill, but we can’t compete with the online interview archive AS220 and its interns have put together (foofest.as220.org). There you’ll find performer and accordion-toting badass Alec K. Redfearn telling the story behind the name of his band, the Eyesores — “[It] comes from when they put that hideous clock tower in front of the Johnson & Wales quad,” he says — and local noise maestro Scott Reber (appearing at Foo Fest as Work/Death) explaining why, during his time working as an AS220 night janitor, he recorded the sounds of ceiling fans and buzzing fluorescent lights, then played those sounds back during performances. “Those things are a language in and of themselves,” he says, “and each of us is experiencing that through our whole lives and building up a library and personal archive of what those sounds are and those experiences in our lives, and when you hear those things back, it triggers memories and ideas.”

AS220’s archive didn’t stop us from doing some reporting of our own, though. We sat down with the Providence-based political dance-punk duo Malportado Kids for a translation of their jittery anthem, “Mi Concha.” The refrain of that tune, “My concha no es bastante blanca para ti,” means, “My vagina isn’t white enough [for you],” singer Victoria Ruiz told us.

So, now you know what you’re screaming along to.

WHAT IS FOO FEST, ANYWAY?

WHAT ABOUT THAT 9-YEAR-OLD RAPPER? michaeL andrade

Veteran AS220 gallery director Neal Walsh provides a helpful intro to Foo Fest for the uninitiated. It is “AS220’s signature event where all its parts come together . . . to host a real great party that celebrates the creative spirit of Providence and RI, while also being an essential fundraiser for AS220,” he says.

But we also heard a few other definitions worth mentioning.

This year’s Foo Fest MC, the local artist/designer/comedienne, Muffy Brandt says the event, “covers a unique spectrum of wholesomeness to eccentricity seldom simultaneously experienced here [in Providence].”

Prolific printmaker and 2014 Foo Fest Free Culture Award recipient Ian Cozzens lovingly calls it a “weird mess.”

Foo Fest 2014 co-Artist-in-Residence, Julia Gualtieri, of the Providence Comics Consortium says, “I don’t know this for certain, but I imagine it’s the most affordable music festival, at least in the region, if not the entire country . . . [It’s] $7 for 12 hours of music.”

And then there’s Brent Legault, the owner of Providence’s Ada Books, who will bring a table of literary goodies — “from Austen to Auster, from Dickens to Dick, Smythe to Smith, and Wolfe to Woolf” — to Foo Fest’s Anarchist Book Fair.

Legault sent us a lengthy prose poem about Foo Fest that we can only sample here, due to space considerations. It begins, “Remember that dream you had where you were some kind of demicreature — maybe half-bug or -bat — and being chased by a giant slice of buttered toast on wrought iron legs? And you turned a corner and fell off a cliff but you just floated like a fetus for a while, listening to distant laughter?”

This intro followed by an interlude featuring “some muffin crumbs doing a Morse code dance,” and a moment “in a bar with some of your childhood friends who are all grown up and misshapen with weird teeth and belly-buttons on their cheeks and foreheads,” before the finale, which reads, “And when you wake up you try to tell your wife what happened, about your dream, and there’s so much more that you can’t remember, but it was all so wonderful and strange, so worldly and unearthly at the same time? It’s something like that.”

So, that’s Foo Fest.

WHO’S WHO Kayciblu, cozzens, an art car, a Spider Lion tote bag, and malportado Kids (clockwise from top left).

We’re not afraid to pick a favorite among this year’s Foo performers.

Her name is Kayciblu. She is a rapper from Providence. She’s well under five feet tall and her voice is endearingly chirpy when she spits lines like, “I thought I told you that my swag’s on a million, money top billin’, hands to the ceilin’ . . . Even the school nurse couldn’t cure me, illin’.”

It’s pretty much impossible not to root for Kayciblu, who will enter fifth grade this fall. There are her dance moves, like when she prances and struts in front of a multicolor “PROVIDENCE” mural in her “Swagg On a Million” video. There’s her political message, like when she told us, “A lot of people get bullied in the world, and it’s actually not a very nice thing and I don’t know why it exists.” And then there’s her style. She showed up to her Phoenix interview wearing bright pink boots, skinny jeans, a Spider-Man T-shirt, a denim jacket covered in white hearts, and a pair of gem-encrusted pink eyeglasses, minus the lenses. (Her dog, Zoe, had chewed those out.)

“We call my style C.C.P.,” she said.

“Cute, colorful, and powerful.”

Swagg on, Kayciblu.

ICONIC Psychic tV are the headliners.

Continued from page 8

WILL THERE BE FOOD AT FOO FEST? Yup. Tacos, vegan burgers, hot dogs, dough boys, jerk chicken, and BBQ from the Julian’s traveling smoker, among other offerings.

There will also be Del’s Lemonade, obviously.

WHAT ELSE?

The AS220 Media Arts crew will be running a .gif photo booth, where folks will have numerous photos taken of them by a digital camera that are then uploaded to Tumblr, overlaid with a Foo Fest graphic, and .gif-ified to become an ever-looping mini-video for your Tweeting and Facebook-sharing pleasure. Note that the background image in the booth will be an enormous mouth and there will be props on hand, so guests are advised to start practicing their skills wielding an enormous tooth brush.

Aside from the booth, there will also be an “art car” on the Foo premises: a 1975 Volkswagen Rabbit with its drivetrain removed that’s been painted white, placed on a tarp, and propped up on blocks by the Providence-based, public art-obsessed nonprofit, the Avenue Concept. There will be plenty of chalk and paint nearby; guests are encouraged to leave their mark.

“Most people never get to paint a car and they’re pretty shocked that they can walk up to something like this and start painting it,” Avenue Concept founder and artistic director Yarrow Thorne says. “It’s never about making really beautiful good art. It’s about how many people can make art and just turn it into this ever-changing collage of color.”

WHAT ABOUT THE “ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE”?

We’re delighted to report that Providence Comics Consortium has been named this year’s Foo Fest Artist-in-Residence. Regular Phoenix readers will remember PCC’s Walker Mettling, whom we honored in 2013 as a “Local Hero” for his work running free comics workshops for local youngsters at public libraries; publishing their work in handsome, hand-printed anthologies; and pairing them up as co-writers with renowned comics artists around the world.

So, what happens when AS220 gives PCC the keys to Foo Fest? You get a booth with a pneumatic tube system that delivers life advice from PCC characters like Glitter Bear, Chainsaw Platypus, and Jellelephant. You get other creatures — Spider Lion, for instance — making appearances on Foo Fest T-shirts, coasters, and tote bags. And, then, at some point during the day, you’ll also encounter what Mettling would only describe as “a big fake school bus and a parade.”

By the way, that’s Mettling who designed our kickass Phoenix cover this week. His explanation: “Performing is the Mutant-a-nator. In the audience is Stinger the Zombie, Stacy the Slime Blob, Raymond Ray, Dr. Entrails, Rod, a Lijk, Mustache Unicorn, Slime Giraffe, Snake Boombox, Watermelonhead, and in the background Tippy the Cheeseburger is talking with Alison Rutsch [the person running the PCC Advice Comics Booth] about getting advice from the PCC Advice Comics Booth.”

Doesn’t it all make much more sense now?

AREN’T YOU GOING TO MENTION THE HEADLINER?

Yes, we are. After booking up-and-comers for the past two Fests (Big Freedia and SSION), AS220 program manager Maralie Armstrong wanted to find someone a bit older — “an icon, basically,” she told us.

She found one.

When Genesis Breyer P-Orridge and Psychic TV take the stage around 12:15 am for Foo’s final set, they’ll bring with them a half-century’s worth of cultural momentum. Genesis was the driving force behind the early ’70s British art collective, COUM Transmissions (they made music with broken violins and submitted syringes and pornography for a show called “Prostitution” at London’s Institute of Contemporary Art), who went on to form the industrial band, Throbbing Gristle (“Nine Inch Nails? . . . [They’re] thanks to Throbbing Gristle,” Armstrong says), and who is more recently known for “Pandrogeny,” the process/project by which she and her lover, Lady Jaye, worked to essentially become the other. (“On Valentine’s Day 2003, the two received matching sets of breast implants,” New York magazine reported in 2009. “Eye and nose jobs followed, and in subsequent years the two would receive, altogether, $200,000 worth of cheek and chin implants, lip plumping, liposuction, a tattooed beauty mark, and hormone therapy. They dressed in identical outfits. Each mimicked the other’s mannerisms.”)

To get a full grasp on Genesis’s significance in the music, art, and performance worlds — and on Earth, in general — you’ll want to attend the pre-Foo Fest community forum, “A Conversation with Genesis Breyer P-Orridge,” at AS220’s performance space on Friday at 8 pm.

There, you might get a sense of why she was once called a “wrecker of civilization” by a British politician — and why she’s the perfect capstone for Providence’s annual arts blowout. ^ Foo Fest takes place Saturday, August 9 in and around AS220 (115 Empire St) from 1 pm until 1 am.

Tickets are $7 in advance and $10 at the gate (free for kids under 10). For more info, go to foofest.as220.org.

Dom Flemons was one of the founding members of the Carolina Chocolate Drops, which gained acclaim for its rousing and inspirational update of African-American string band music from the 1920s and ’30s, incorporating country, jazz, blues, and other indigenous strains, played on banjos, bones, jugs, and other trad instruments. Flemons left the Drops late last year but is thrilled to be on his own, and is proud of his new solo disc, Prospect Hill. “What I wanted to do was record an album where I was both continuing the work I did in that group, and continuing my own personal research into the oldest styles of American music,”

You can learn a lot about a person from their Facebook bio. Here’s nick swArDson’s: “I was born in the jungles of Vietnam. It was there I learned to play the

piano and formed the band Coldplay. I also wrote and directed Avatar.” Quite the CV! He also notes that he is “made entirely out of wood.” Nick’s the kind of guy that the teacher’s would describe as “having an active imagination.”

He’s put that creativity to good use, helping to save the rainforest with his stand-up and roles on TV (Reno 911!) and in films (his first credit: Insane Bowie Fan in Almost Famous). Nick will make you laugh — a lot — at the Newport Yachting Center at 7:30 pm | $29 + $35 | newportcomedy.com

art outward and inward Samuel Denoncour’S ‘ThiS lanD iS’ aT grin; Toby barneS’S ‘alTareD STaTeS’ aT yellow peril _by greg co o k A couple years or so back, Samuel De-

noncour spent a year traveling alone f across these United States. He made notes

and drawings in his sketchbook along the way, recording fleeing impressions that served as inspiration for the paintings in his show, “This Land Is,” at GRIN (60 Valley St, Providence, through August 16).

He was particularly taken by the West — Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, California. His canvases depict a bluff reflected in a pond, men and women wading in rivers and lakes, the profile of a butte in a Utah desert, a VW microbus kicking up dust as it speeds along a mountain road under a full moon, a man laying under a giant boulder precariously balanced on a smaller rock.

In one picture, a woman in a red dress stands between an unruly pile of logs and an old barn. The building is missing boards as well as panes from its window.

She holds a rifle to her shoulder and aims off to the right, toward who knows what.

He calls it Shooting Ghosts. Which could be a

title for the show. It’s about memories.

Denoncour, who resides in Amesbury, Massachusetts, includes a cartoonish, native-ish wood totem. From the figure’s open mouth, you can hear recordings of people and places he visited, snatches of talk and church organs and wind. It sits awkwardly among the paintings, its tone loud and garish.

Denoncour’s paintings generally have a laidback, sketchy quality, like a looser version of the Maine landscapes and interiors Fairfield Porter used to paint. The canvas All Hail the Orange Tree Before the Great Valley depicts a mountain with forest climbing around its flanks but unable to colonize the bald, rocky top. The trees and mountainsides are all warm sunset or rusty autumn oranges and browns.

This landscape can bring to mind Georgia O’Keeffe’s Western mountains in its hues and shapes and simplifying to get at the heart of something. O’Keeffe’s landscapes were often more solid, sculptural

MAJESTIC Denoncour’s All Hail the Orange Tree Before the Great Valley. forms that she streamlined into a kind of Southwestern pueblo art deco. She was fascinated by the sensual folds of flowers and mountains and flesh.

Denoncour’s landscapes are more about paint and the offhand touch of his brushstrokes. It’s a casualness that suggests him remembering ephemeral moments from drifting across the country. That wistful mood is catching when, say, he reproduces the cozy shady-sunny light under a bridge over a calm river. What sticks with you is the feeling of pleasantly unhurried meandering.

At Yellow Peril Gallery (60 Valley St #5,

Providence, through August 24), Toby f Barnes of Amherst, Massachusetts, aims

to explore the “sacred in everyday life” in “Altared States.” He writes, “I hope to prod my audience to engage with these practices in their own lives, practices that bridge with very human concerns with seeking affirmation, wanting adoration, commemoration and memory.”

A native of Miami of Thai-American heritage, he frequently begins with photos of Hindu and Buddhist traditions — the shrines or table decorations. He also uses photos of hissing cobras, nubby rubber balls, and architectural details. Barnes reworks these images digitally, often

mirroring them for kaleidoscope effect. He prints them and on top seamlessly paints hovering graphics that look like anime robots or flying icons or calligraphic script.

Rhyming the traditional ornament with contemporary computer graphics results in a wondrous too-much-muchness.

Then he adds more — laying out on shelves or on the floor in front of the paintings actual cups, bowls, bells, string, a coconut, oranges, fake flowers, soda bottles filled with vivid, candy red fluid. They don’t have the futuristic elements of the paintings, instead evoking home shrines or ones you might find tucked into a corner shop.

Barnes’s most elaborate installation is Sacred Meditation Triptych, with three paintings of what might be exploding totems or important crests. His photographic foundations here are apparently shots of the materials to make a shrine that he photographed on a monk’s cart. In front of these photo-paintings are blue tables displaying fake flowers, incense, and electric candles.

I’ve seen shrines like Barnes’s sources, but I don’t know the fullness of their meanings. Here, I’m seduced by the riots of colors and patterns and reflections, the awesome visual fireworks. His setups seem to be waiting for someone to come use them and, in doing so, activate their meanings. They’re patient, quiet, solitary, and private. ^

Filming periodically over 12 years, writer-director Richard Linklater follows a Texas boy from first grade to high school graduation, noting along the way how his mother’s unhappy relationships with men color the boy’s own interaction with the opposite sex. The movie is being hailed for its novel production, though in fact British director Michael Winterbottom beat Linklater out of the box with his superb, little-noticed Everyday (2012), chronicling a working-class family over five years. That movie progresses more naturally than this one, which can’t afford to introduce a single character unless there’s a significant payoff later. But Linklater’s writing is typically warm and insightful, and the cast is uniformly excellent, including Ellar Coltrane as the quiet, down-to-earth hero. With Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke. _J.R.

Dobro master and 13-time Grammy winner

A Muslim family, fleeing religious persecution in India, land in a French alpine village and dare to open a restaurant across the street from a Michelin-starred place that’s commanded by a haughty old widow (Helen Mirren). Produced

by Steven Spielberg and Oprah Winfrey and directed by the reliably complacent Lasse Halström (Chocolat, Dear John), this middlebrow drama delivers just what you’d expect from such a trio: two hours of yummy dishes and nonthreatening ethnics. I’ll spare you my usual rant about the decadence of foodies, but it should be obvious by now that, despite their discerning tastes, the movies catering to them are the artistic equivalent of dinner at the Olive Garden. Screenwriter Steven Knight (Eastern Promises, Dirty Pretty Things) adapted a best-selling first novel by former Forbes correspondent Richard C. Morais; among the cast are Om Puri, Manish Dayal, and Charlotte Le Bon. _J.R. Jones

streamlined past the point of any emotional resonance, the better for viewers to enjoy the large-scale destruction. The film reminded me of a bargain-basement monster movie from the 1950s, in that the monster — or in this case, the level-five tornado — is the only interesting element. Veteran comic actor Matt Walsh (Veep) plays a storm chaser, and it speaks to the filmmakers’ paucity of imagination that they don’t even allow him to be funny. Steven Quale (Final Destination 5) directed. _Ben Sachs

Most of the juice in this Marvel Studios behemoth comes from wisecracking Chris Pratt, completing his decade-long metamorphosis from comic chubster to chiseled action hero, and an ironic soundtrack of ’70s and ’80s dance hits, which Pratt’s character accesses from a treasured mixtape cassette that his dying mother gave him back on planet Earth. As you might have guessed, these meager pleasures are swallowed up in all the frantic action and overblown CG sequences.

artist, an icon, and a person, James Brown is such an elusive quarry that no biopic writer could hope to do more than circle around him — which is exactly how brothers Jez and John-Henry Butterworth (Fair Game) approach the singer in this straightforward but highly entertaining feature. The story is framed

by Brown’s notorious 1988 drug bust in Georgia following a high-speed car chase, yet within this frame the writers also loop back and forth in time to consider Brown’s impoverished youth, his cunning ascent of the R&B charts, his oscillating political views, and his restless pursuit of the ever-more-funky rhythms that are still being sampled today.

Mercifully, the writers downplay his three marriages (and long history of spousal abuse) to focus instead on his long friendship with backup singer Bobby Byrd, who somehow navigated Brown’s titanic ego for more than 20 years. Tate Taylor (The

Help) directed; with Chadwick Boseman (as Brown), Nelsan Ellis (as Byrd), Dan Aykroyd, Viola Davis, and Octavia Spencer. | 138m |

can be all bad when it gives John Hurt the opportunity to bellow “Unleash the wolves!” But this sword-and-sandals epic is hobbled

by Brett Ratner’s terminally clunky direction. Based on a 2008 comic book series, it deliberately obscures the hero’s divine parentage and emphasizes his more human qualities, such as his fighting skill and his rapport with common people.

This has the potential for a reflective, revisionist comic book movie a la The Dark Knight, but Rattner clearly doesn’t see it, giving the viewer little to think about between the computer-enhanced battle sequences. As the titular character, Dwayne Johnson is likable during the occasional stretches of dialogue, though his self-effacing charm has

been better better utilized in other movies (Southland Tales, Faster, Pain & Gain). | 87m |

XXW LUCY | 2014 | A young American in Taipei (Scarlett Johansson), coerced into serving as a drug mule for gangsters, accidentally absorbs a powerful new product that unlocks 100 percent of her brain capacity, turning her into a superhuman being and an asskicker extraordinaire. No one has ever accused French action director Luc Besson of thinking too hard, and this frantic exercise in pseudoscience and goofball metaphysics is best enjoyed by following his lead.

The title refers not only to the main character but also to the famous fossilized skeleton, an ancestor of Homo sapiens; Besson implies that both represent the birth of a new species, turning this enjoyable shoot-’em-up into a dumbbell 2001: A Space Odyssey. With Morgan Freeman and Choi Min-sik. | 88m |

XXXW A MOST WANTED MAN

| 2014 | This adaptation of a John le Carré novel works smashingly as a suspense film, a mood piece, and a vehicle for the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, playing a world-weary German spy who gets more than he bargained for when he investigates a suspicious Chechen immigrant.

Director Anton Corbijn (Control, The American) seems to have modeled the film’s somber look and muted drama on such paranoid ’70s thrillers as The Conversation and All the President’s Men; the most suspenseful passages tend to be the quieter, more cerebral ones.

Corbijn employs wide-screen framing to striking dramatic effect, using it to emphasize the characters’ confinement in tight spaces and their vulnerability in open ones. This is all very entertaining, though as an assessment of post-9/11 surveillance culture the movie isn’t sophisticated so much as cynical. With Rachel McAdams, Robin Wright, and Homayoun Ershadi. | 121m |

Moon signs “Is the moon tired? She looks so pale / Within her misty veil / She scales the sky from east to west, And takes no rest.” _Christina Rossetti

If you’re paying attention to your environment you know when the full moon is approaching without even looking up. This full moon is the Dog Day’s moon, also known as the “Moon When Everything Ripens,” (Dakota Sioux). Coming on the weekend, this means all festive and social occasions are definitely enhanced—so plan your party now! And speaking of “social,” do visit me on Facebook, where I have the “Sally Cragin Astrology” page.

Waxing moon in aquarius (moon voidof-course 4:09 am until 9:52 am in capricorn). there should be a word for “the day before the full moon,” just as “the dark of the moon” applies to the day before new moon. full mooniness is in bloom, particularly for chatterbox aquarius, Libra, gemini, pisces, capricorn, aries, and sagittarius. regret and chagrin could blemish the good moods of taurus, Leo, scorpio, virgo, and cancer.

full moon in aquarius, moon void-ofcourse 6:12 pm until 8:55 am monday. today and tomorrow are wonderful days for meeting old friends, new friends from exotic locales, or finding a completely fanciful solution, particularly for sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, pisces, aries, Libra, and gemini.

Leo, taurus, cancer, virgo, and scorpio could be overextended, or frustrated by people who can’t be consistent.

Waning moon in pisces. Yesterday was the “dog day moon,” and you can expect howling from virgo, gemini, sagittarius, Libra, and Leo. however, this is a good day for appreciating photography, or going behind the curtain (literally or metaphorically). also, a fine day to hear from someone you think of as reclusive (those birds make rare appearances). You don’t have to be a pisces to have a thing about shoes, and capricorn, aquarius, pisces, aries, taurus, cancer, and scorpio have super taste and instincts.

Waning moon in pisces, moon void-ofcourse 12:01 until noon, Wednesday. shop for shoes, or sympathize with an underdog. traditionally, this lunar phase and sign are considered helpful for preserving fruits and vegetables. virgo, sagittarius, Libra, and gemini: be cautious about your confidences. are you too trusting in a general sense? capricorn, aquarius, pisces, aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, and scorpio: pursue artistic or creative impulses.

Waning moon in aries. We are still really close to the full moon, and aries moons are excellent for taking initiative, or reaching out to large groups of people. fresh starts come easily to aquarius, pisces, aries, taurus, gemini, Leo, and sagittarius. however, if you love those folks, you may feel exhausted early in the day! (particularly capricorn, Libra, scorpio, and cancer who are grumpy).

this horoscope traces the passage of the moon, not the sun. simply read from day to day to watch the moon’s influence as it moves through the signs of the zodiac. | When the moon is in your sun sign, you are beginning a new 28-day emotional cycle, and you can expect increased insight and emotionality. When the moon 9 12 13 14 15 moves into10the sun11sign opposite yours (see below), expect to have difficulties dealing with the opposite sex, family, or authority figures; social or romantic activities will at their 27 best. | When the moon is in 25 not be26 28 29 30 aries, 31 it opposes Libra, and vice versa. other oppositions are taurus/scorpio, gemini/sagittarius, cancer/capricorn, Leo/aquarius, and virgo/pisces. the moon stays in each sign approximately two and a half days. | as the moon moves between signs, it will sometimes become “void of course,” making no major angles to planets. consider this a null time and try to avoid making or implementing decisions if you can. but it’s great for brainstorming. | for symboline dai’s sun-sign horoscopes and advice column, visit our Web site at thephoenix.com.

have as many options as usual? Libra, aries, cancer, gemini, and Leo: negotiations don’t find you at your best (whereas making demands comes a little too-o-o easily). scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, pisces, taurus, and virgo: follow your instincts, and go for broke.

Waxing moon in capricorn (moon voidof-course in sagittarius until 9:38 am). today’s lunar phase urges us all to look at finances, compute longterm expenses, or working with heavy tools. capricorn moons are excellent for working long hours and making good executive decisions, particularly for scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, pisces, taurus, and virgo. Libra, aries, Leo, gemini, and cancer could be forced into making rash decisions.
