ALMANAC WEEKLY
Nancy Campbell’s “Hometown” Some landscape painters are motivated by the sight of an awe-inspiring vista. But for Saugerties native Nancy Campbell, it’s her hometown that moves her to pick up a paintbrush. “Familiarity has bred inspiration,” she says about the place where she was raised and the village where she raised her family. Even on her annual painting trips to the region of Lazio in Italy, where her father’s family is from, it’s the familiar scenes there that she has
come to know over a decade of visits that she wants to paint: the landscapes viewed as “you start to see the nooks and crannies.” Campbell will exhibit a selection of a dozen or so of her Saugerties paintings from July 1 through August 31 at the Saugerties Public Library. Titled “Hometown,” the exhibit is an ode to Saugerties, she says. The works feature town and village scenes painted in various seasons. All of the works are oils – on paper, canvas, panels or linen. Most were painted between 2015 and 2017. A meet-the-artist reception will be held on Thursday, July 6 from 5 to 7 p.m. in the

library’s community room on the lower level. Admission is free. Campbell has written of her work that it’s about “seeing compositions and motifs in the arrangement of shapes and changing light in various seasons and times of day. It’s a simple rather than grand vision, but nonetheless challenging, to successfully render one’s reaction to a familiar and recognizable place without succumbing to sentimentality.” That’s because when a painter depicts his or her hometown, or paints the place where he or she lives, there’s an expectation that it’ll look pretty, Campbell says. “People love where they live, and the people who come to see your show – especially in this case – will probably be from Saugerties. But you don’t want to just present something beautiful. What I

“Ulcer County” history talk in New Paltz Historic Huguenot Street historian A. J Schenkman manages the ten-acre National Historic Landmark District organization and is also the author of several books of local relevance and resonance, including Wicked Ulster County: Tales of Desperadoes, Gangs & More, Washington’s Headquarters: Home to a Revolution and Murder and Mayhem in Ulster County. Schenkman’s taste for the dark side and the macabre takes center stage when the New Paltz Historical Society presents “Ulcer County: Tales of Ghosts, Immorality, Murder and Elopements.” In 1870, the New York Herald proclaimed that Ulster County was New York’s “Ulcer County” due to its lawlessness and crime. The columnist supported his claim by citing that in only six months, “it has been the scene of no less than four cold-blooded and brutal murders, six suicides and four elopements.” This event is free and open to the public. “Ulcer County” takes place on Wednesday, July 5 at 7 at the New Paltz Community Center, located at 3 Veterans’ Drive in New Paltz.

scene,” Campbell notes; but in painting it the way it appears, its beauty is revealed. And while she does particularly enjoy painting winter scenes and the reflection of light on snow, it’s really the location that piques her interest. A painting that Campbell just recently finished was inspired by a street she has often taken driving in Blue Mountain. Campbell utilizes a combination of photographs and location sketches for reference material. “It’s important, when you can, to do a location sketch, because what the camera records can be deceptive,” she says. Having lived in the Village of Saugerties since 1981, “I kind of know already what streets appeal to me. When it snows, I rush out there right afterward with a camera and take pictures before the snow turns black. For the summery scenes, I usually do a location sketch to get the overall arrangement of shapes, and also take photographs.” Campbell was executive director of the Woodstock School of Art from 2010 to 2015 and currently sits on the Board of Directors as vice president. In 2014 she was awarded a residency at the Cill Rialaig Arts Center in County Kerry, Ireland. Campbell has been painting seriously now for nearly 38 years, even while raising three sons with her husband, Mike. When asked if she sees an evolution in the way that she has painted over the years, Campbell says, “Hopefully, I’m improving! What I’ve been trying to do is be less literal. I’m not there yet, but that goes along with not making things too pretty. Like every painter I know, I aspire to be looser and let the paint speak, instead of trying to portray a complete narrative. It’s having the paint do the work for you and

MUSIC Billy Rogan plays Colony in Woodstock this Saturday
Billy Rogan’s meditative, facile and harmonically rich acoustic guitar playing is enshrouded in abundant ambient enhancement on his recordings and in his live performances, a little pocket cathedral that abides wherever he might wander; but there is no question where the mood in this mood-music really comes from. Rogan is a technically adept guitarist with a great feel for the intersection of fingerstyle folk music (with echoes of Baroque) and the abstracted, majorkey-themed colors and modern rhythmic undercurrents of New Age Minimalism. His technique combines fingerpicking with the slap-tappy percussive attack associated principally with the late New Age pioneer Michael Hedges, but also with such descendants as Kaki King and jam’s clown prince Keller Williams and, in the pop sphere, Ani DiFranco and Dave Matthews. There is a lot going on in the music

Abby Hollander Band to play Rosendale Café The One Mile Gallery in Kingston presents “Golden Years,” the photos of Ed Rosenbaum, a rabid New York City music fan who documented performances by Lou Reed, David Bowie, the Jam, Thin Lizzy and Bruce Springsteen, to name only a few. “It was a way to remember the shows you went to,” Rosenbaum recalls. Unseen for years, the rediscovery of Rosenbaum’s photos is a significant event in the world of rock ‘n’ roll photography. Not only did he capture many great artists at their peak, but also with a sense of dynamic composition that’s rare for an amateur. “Golden Years” is on display through July 29, with a wine and deejay reception for the artist on Saturday, July 1 from 6 to 9 p.m. The One Mile Gallery is located at 475 Abeel Street in Kingston.

IT’S RAINING POETRY IN ROXBURY THIS SATURDAY
I Only once a year, it seems, the Abby Hollander Band returns to the upstate area for a date at the Rosendale Café, one of its favorite venues. Fortunately, it happens to be coming up, at 8 p.m. on Friday, June 30 at the Café, located at 434 Main Street in Rosendale. Hollander, a singer and multiinstrumentalist who fronts the band with a stand-up bass and features mostly her own songs, is originally from Woodstock, where she grew up listening to her parents play with Bill Keith, John Herald, Eric Weissberg and Cindy Cashdollar, among others. She spent some time in Texas absorbing the music and culture, another year or so in Spain, and has been working with some of the finest young musicians in Brooklyn in her current band. She’ll be joined by Ellery Marshall on banjo, a terrific, soulful picker. Jason Borisoff, co-founder of the Brooklyn Bluegrass Collective, plays guitar, sings harmony and co-writes songs. They’ll be joined by Jake Tilove, of the Lonesome Trio, on mandolin. The band has been featured in numerous bluegrass festivals and publications,

f it rains on Saturday, July 1, poetry will appear like messages from the mists of time or the foggy beyond or the mysterious washes of memory. And if it doesn’t rain, visitors walking the streets of Roxbury will be supplied with watering cans to douse the sidewalks themselves and reveal the hidden poems left there by local wordsmiths. Twenty-one of these disappearing and reappearing poems will be stenciled on sidewalks with water-repellent spray. When wetted down, the biodegradable, invisible “ink” emerges in verse. Raining Poetry was conceived by Robin Factor, who admits that poetry can seem somewhat intimidating. “Or it can seem separate from life as you go about daily tasks. Bringing it to folks in this playful way can make it less intimidating.” Still, poetry is meant to surprise and poke the senses, especially when it’s presented in public places; think of the MTA’s “Poetry in Motion,” the provoking display of poems on New York City subway cars, Metro Cards and touch-screen kiosks. Like sidewalk chalk art that defies visual perspective, unexpected engagement with poetry can have a similar effect. “It’s ephemeral,” Factor says of the medium being used in the project, “kind of the way people think of poetry to begin with. [The poems] go in and out of view, so you can remember the poem and then see it again. “This is the second year we’ve done the project. Last year we had ten poets and poems. I received a grant to expand it, and we put out a call for submissions – for poems with a maximum of 16 words and four lines.” Poets appearing “on the sidewalk” this year include Lloyd Barnhart, Bill Birns, Ellenora Cage, Esther Cohen, Esther de Jong, Melody DiGregorio, Eddie Donoghue, Chris Durham, Naomi Fisch, Connie Horne, Ginnah Howard, Judith Lechner, Gail Lennstrom, Gary Mead, Katie Miller, Mark Osterweil, Chris Rosenthal, Sharon Ruetenick, Teri Julig Schlobohm, Anique Taylor and six-year-old Ellie Waters. Factor means to generate familiarity and comfort with this fun street-art project, surprising pedestrians with the written word through a novel delivery system. An open-air reception will follow later in the afternoon in front of Roxbury General, where participating poets will read their works and do a question-and-answer session with the audience. Come to Roxbury this weekend to water the streets and read the poems! Raining Poetry in Roxbury 2017 is sponsored by WIM, a not-for-profit organization serving upstate communities by providing a nurturing environment for the practice, appreciation and sharing of creative writing. The project is made possible, in part, with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts’ Decentralization Grant Program, with the support of governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, and is administered in Delaware County by the Roxbury Arts Group. – Ann Hutton Raining Poetry, Saturday, July 1, reception/reading 3 p.m., Roxbury General, 53587 Main Street, Roxbury; (607) 326-6118, http://writersinthemountains. org.

Washington’s HQ tours this Sunday offer “before & after” views One of the pleasures of visiting a historic site is imagining what it looked like “back in the day.” Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site in Newburgh will offer visitors the tools to make that easier on two special tours to be offered this Sunday. Tourgoers on “Through Different Lenses:
Views from Two Centuries” will be given stereoscopes and stereograms to use to compare the way the rooms at the site looked when it opened in 1850 and the way the rooms look now. According to site manager Elyse Goldberg, participants on the tours will hear a short talk about the history of the site before being taken into the house to make those comparisons between the present and the past while surveying the room from the same perspective. In most cases, says Goldberg, the rooms look the same, but the contents have changed dramatically from when the site opened on Independence Day of 1850 as the

It should be noted that these activities on Sunday, July 2 comprise the historic site’s Independence Day celebration. Washington’s Headquarters will be closed on July 4. The City of Newburgh will also celebrate Independence Day on Sunday, July 2 with fireworks at 9 p.m. The display will be launched from Unico Park (People’s Waterfront Park) at Front and Fourth Streets in Newburgh.

T
he two-day Tiny House and Green Living Freedom Fest will be held Saturday, July 1 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday, July 2 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. As its name suggests, the new-to-New Paltz festival will be an event that highlights both the tiny house lifestyle and sustainable living. Builders of tiny homes will offer tours of at least 15 small dwellings (attendees to the Independence Day celebration the evening prior can view the houses, but tours inside will not be offered until the Freedom Fest). The event offers artisan vendors, live music, alternative energy displays, a full program of speakers each day and sustainability workshops. Single day admission costs $20 for adults (age 13 and older) and $7 for ages 9-12. Those age eight or younger get in free. A two-day pass for adults costs $40 at the gate or $35 with advance purchase online, which includes a chance to win an allinclusive Mohonk Mountain House getaway for two and four free passes to Rail Explorers USA (the Catskills division of the company will open next year). Junior weekend passes to the Freedom Fest for ages 9-12 cost $10 with advance purchase. There are also camping packages available for those who wish to bring their own tiny house, tent or RV to stay the weekend; details are at TinyHouseFreedomFest.com. Purchasing tickets in advance also allows early sign-up for workshops, like the one on solar panel installation. Attendees to the Freedom Fest are welcome to bring lawn chairs, blankets and towels for sitting on, but no coolers, grills, pets, or outside food. Beer and alcohol will be available. For people who are considering the move to a tiny home, the festival will offer plenty of information, inspiration and advice. Ten presentations on Saturday and nine on Sunday will address topics that include how to build a tiny home, tips for living in one -- embracing minimalism is key -- and dealing with codes and zoning when living small. (Each presenter speaks both days in different time slots, with an additional speaker on Saturday.) A few of the talks will offer firsthand experiences shared by tiny-home enthusiasts who blog about their experiences living mobile lives on the road. There will also be re-use and salvage experts who will give their take on making the most of very little. The barn at the fairgrounds will host several film screenings during the festival, of two different documentaries tackling sustainability topics: The ReUse Documentary and Minimalism: The Value of Time. The Tiny House and Green Living Freedom Fest will be held rain or shine. More info is available at TinyHouseFreedomFest. com.
nation’s first publicly owned historic site. The idea for the tours came about when the staff was discussing how to make people feel that they’d been transported back in time, she says. The special tours will take place on Sunday, July 2 at noon and 3 p.m. Tickets cost $5, which covers the expense of materials (visitors may take home the modest stereoscopes and stereograms). With space on the tours limited to 12 to 15 people, advance reservations are strongly suggested. Regular tours of the site will also be offered throughout the day. In honor of Independence Day, and the site’s
history on that date, general admission to the headquarters and museum on Sunday, July 2 will be free to visitors, compliments of Newburgh’s deputy mayor Regina Angelo. Hours are from 1 to 5 p.m. Visitors to Wa s h i n g t o n ’s Headquarters that day will also have the opportunity to make a 19th-centurystyle whirligig to take home.

Smiles of a SummerScape night New York City Ballet kicks off Bard’s seven-week, Chopin-themed festival
T
hese days, music scholars are spelling Chopin’s first name the native Polish way: Fryderyk, not Frederic. Though the body of the great Romantic piano innovator lies buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, where he spent most of his adulthood, they took his heart home to Warsaw. It was in the folk melodies and patriotic anthems of Poland that he grounded his compositions, which then went on to conquer
the affections of the French and other Western Europeans. Through his art, nationalist sentiment was transmuted into something much more universal. This engagement between still-wild East and overcivilized West supplies the loosey-goosey sort of framework that the minds behind Bard SummerScape seem to like best. “Chopin and His World” is the theme of the 2017 Bard Music Festival, and much attention – in the form of concerts, recitals, lectures and

panel discussions – will be paid to his stunning influence on how the piano is used in classical music. Weekend One, August 11 to 13, will examine “Chopin, the Piano and Musical Culture of the 19th Century” and Weekend Two, August 18 to 20, “Originality and Virtuosity.” But that’s getting ahead of the game; you’ll read more in these pages about the most Chopin-centric aspects of the annual summer music festival on the Bard College campus as August draws nigh. It’s time now for a peek at SummerScape’s first month of offerings, which begin as usual with dance. New York City Ballet MOVES, a subgroup of NYCB directed by Peter Martins, makes its SummerScape debut at the Fisher Center’s Sosnoff Theater with performances at 7:30 p.m. on June 30, July 1 and 2, plus a 2 p.m. Sunday matinée on July 2. The program will trace NYCB’s choreographic lineage from George Balanchine to Jerome Robbins to young rising star Justin Peck. No choreographer is more closely associated with Chopin than Robbins, who set four major ballets to his music; his Dances at a Gathering (1969) will be the centerpiece of the SummerScape program. Works by Stravinsky and Philip Glass are also on the menu. The seven-week arts festival then moves on to theater: the world premiere of the

ALMANAC WEEKLY
June 29, 2017 what Andy Warhol is to America: an iconic postwar artist whose influence continues to resonate far beyond his own country,” according to the official SummerScape writeup, which also calls A Pink Chair “an exploration of ecstasy, despair, nostalgia and memory.” Weaving together live performance, music and video with material from Kantor’s archives, the new piece takes the form of a conversation among the company, Kantor’s ghost and his daughter, Dorota Krakowska, who is collaborating with the Wooster Group on this piece. Elizabeth LeCompte directs; the performers include Zbigniew Bzymek, Enver Chakartash, Jim Fletcher, Ari Fliakos, Dorota Krakowska, Erin Mullin, Danusia Trevino, Kate Valk and – most intriguingly – singer Suzzy Roche (of the Roches). Bard’s black-box LUMA Theater will host ten performances of A Pink Chair between July 13 and 23. Next comes SummerScape’s annual tradition of dusting off some splendid opera that has been unjustly semiforgotten. This year’s rediscovery is Antonín Dvorák’s Dimitrij (1882), in a new production by Obie-winning Bard alumna Anne Bogart (Class of ’74). Rarely staged outside the Czech Republic, Dimitrij is set in 17th-century Russia, following the death of the tsar Boris Godunov. Believing himself to be the lost son of Ivan the Terrible, Dvorák’s protagonist leads the Polish army to march on Moscow, only to fall in love with Godunov’s daughter. The opera “has long been recognized as an exemplar of Dvorák’s signature lyricism and masterfully stirring choral writing,” says the press material. “Ultimately tragic, the story of the False Dimitrij pits Orthodox Russia against Catholic Poland, a conflict Dvorák captures by setting Eastern Orthodox liturgical harmonies against the mazurka’s triple time.” With Leon Botstein leading the American Symphony Orchestra, Dimitrij will run for five performances between July 28 and August 6. While all this mainstage stuff is going on – with ticket prices typically starting at $25 – lighter, fizzier fare can be found within the glittering Spiegeltent beginning June 30. As usual, there are edgy cabaret performances and dance parties on weekend nights, with Justin Vivian Bond presiding as emcee; Thursday evenings are the province of the Catskill Jazz Factory. At $10 per ticket, SummerScape’s biggest bargain is the Film Series, presented in the Ottaway Film Center on Thursdays and Sundays between July 27 and August 20, this year with the theme “Chopin and the Image of Romanticism.” Besides Charles Vidor’s Hollywoodized 1945 Chopin biopic, A Song to Remember, the lineup will include works by Polish directors Andrzej Wajda, Roman Polanski, Aleksander Ford, Krzysztof Zanussi and Krzysztof Kieslowski. Three Ingmar Bergman films that make powerful use of Chopin’s music will also be screened: Autumn Sonata (1978), Smiles of a
Summer’s Night (1955) and Cries and Whispers (1972). Tickets are now on sale for all Bard SummerScape events, which run from June 30 to August 20.

Green Day's American Idiot in Rhinebeck Green Day’s concept record American Idiot continues to find new life adapted as a staged musical – a musical that became a smash hit in New York and London, no less. Now American Idiot comes to the Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck with Friday, Saturday and Sunday performances running from June 30 to July 16. American Idiot tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia.

Tickets cost $27 general admission $25 for children and seniors. For an additional $10, you can join the 21st Century Club and have the full-on American Idiot Experience. Show up 45 minutes before showtime, and have a drink (or two) on set at the 7-Eleven and leave your mark on the walls while the sounds of rock are blasting away.

NIGHT SKY
Things are looking up It feels wrong to list myself among the spectacles available this summer. But I’m doing it chronologically, and I’d love to have you come to my illustrated talk at the Poughkeepsie Library this Saturday evening, July 1 at 8 p.m. I’ll preview the great upcoming sky spectacles for the next few years and highlight new astrodiscoveries. And the price is right. Do you know the location of the main library there? Me neither. I guess I’ll find it. July 4, before the fireworks. It’s when the most people in our country watch the sky, as they wait for darkness. This year, bring your binoculars. Point it to the brightest “star,” which will be left of the sunset. That’s Jupiter, whose moons will show up through the binoculars if held steadily. Then check out the Moon. It will be gibbous: the perfect phase to show off craters and mountains that, yes, are visible through binoculars, especially if they are 10x and hopefully imagestabilized. One of the two brightish stars far to the Moon’s left is Saturn. August 11/12, the Night of the Shooting Stars. It’s our annual Mohonk Mountain House program, but you really only need a dark spot in your backyard. The Moon will not interfere this year. And the Perseids should perform for two nights,
providing some insurance against clouds. August 21, the Great Total Eclipse. People keep saying, “Yes, I’ll watch it from right here in Rhinebeck!” No, you won’t. Stop thinking that you want to see an “eclipse,” and instead think “totality.” Because only a solar totality provides the rare stunning sight of pink flames leaping off the Sun’s edge, and the eerie corona with its strange filaments splaying far across the sky, and stars in the daytime, and animals acting strangely. That’s only seen from within the path of totality. Around here, you’d get a 75 percent partial eclipse: the kind you’ve seen before, which requires eye protection and is just a so-so experience. And stop imagining that totality’s main attraction is “blackness at midday.” First, your surroundings don’t actually get truly dark during totality, but somewhat brighter than a Full Moon night. Second, the thrill is what’s happening overhead: the bizarre and astounding Sun/Moon combination and the unique feeling it creates. As my ex-wife put it, “It felt like the home of my soul.” A partial eclipse doesn’t come close. So don’t stay home. Fly down to Nashville a few days earlier and visit your cousins or that old friend from school, and watch it from their backyard. More evidence? I’ve never seen anyone in our previous seven totalities who even bothered watching the hourlong partial eclipse after totality was over. After totality, people reach for their filters and take one or two quick glimpses at the partial, then call it a day. The show is over and they’re stunned and reeling. If you miss this one, you could pay five or six thousand bucks and let a good science tour company (e.g., http:// specialinteresttours.com) take you to Chile for totalities in 2019 and 2020 or Australia in 2023. Or spend double that and go to the one in Antarctica in 2021. Or you could just cool your heels until April 8, 2024, when totality again comes to our country – that time as close as Buffalo, Syracuse and Burlington. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

he Golden Age of New Paltz,” an exhibition in three parts celebrating the New Paltz artists of the 1960s, takes a nuanced and intimate look at the factors that fostered the cultural and artistic vibrancy of the small college town at that time. The first installment focuses on the art of New Paltz faculty, students and community members in the years of 1959 to 1963: a pivotal period nationally, something like the gathering of a storm. “The Golden Age of New Paltz” is thus both broad in its cultural resonance but acute in its focus not just on one locale and period, but on an intimately connected group of friends, makers and mentors who, together, created a lasting body of work ripe for reappreciation. At the heart of the exhibition is the notion of a Golden Age, an unlikely but historically explicable confluence of people and conditions that led to a period of flowering and a loosely shared aesthetic. Like the digging of a canal or the discovery of a new passage, the completion of the New York State Thruway in 1954 played its part: a two-way connection between the young artists upstate and the currents and energies of the indisputable capital of the American art scene at what was a time of transition between the Modernist art that defined the first half of the century and the radical, political and Pop art innovations that would steal away with the second half. The young artists of New Paltz did not

have to find a sense of local significance and identity entirely on their own. They found antecedents in the famed Hudson River school of painters, such as Frederic Church, Thomas Cole and, closest to home, Jervis McEntee, the painter of the Rondout (with strong New Paltz ties) whose significance has been recently reassessed regionally and nationally. Proximity to Woodstock provided a more immediate and modern sense of identity and importance, its pre-counterculture legacy of art schools and colonies and the incubation of 20th-century thought. Exhibition curator Jack Murphy understands the creation and evolution of the SUNY system itself as another factor that brought these people together at this time. The State University of New York was formed by legislative act in 1948, with the New Paltz Teachers’ College included in its fold. In 1951, an Art Education program was added to the curriculum (a full BFA program would not developed until the 1970s). Most of the artists in this show were affiliated with the college, the art faculty and their students. Some, however, were drawn into the same circle from the larger community, interacting in the various venues and clubs in New Paltz at that time. Murphy recalls, “I came to New Paltz as an art student in June of 1967, and met some of these people that first summer I was here. Some had already been elevated to ‘legend’ status, and many had never left New Paltz, opting to stay and raise a family, take up an occupation, but, usually, continue making art. I heard the stories of the ‘old days,’ and met more of the ‘pioneers,’ becoming friends with many of them. Even though many have left the area, and too many have died, the friendships and connections made over 50 years ago are still strong today. It was a pleasure bringing this work back to the public, and recognizing it as timeless art, by accomplished artists.” While Murphy does not seem to be campaigning for recognition of New Paltz as a “school” or making outsize claims about historical significance, he does note than an uncommonly large proportion of the New Paltz artists represented in this show did go on to work professionally and achieve recognition, as makers and, of course, as educators. The exhibit is

dedicated to the memory of Marjorie Myers Simon, who came to New Paltz in the early 1960s as an Art Education student and who was a friend to many of these artists. She had conceived a similar show at the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY-New Paltz to celebrate the 50 years since many of them graduated. Her plans were derailed by the development of an aggressive cancer. Jack Murphy, who was an art student in the late ’60s, stepped in to help realize Margie’s vision. She died in November 2016. “The Golden Age of New Paltz: Part
One” will be showing at Sevan Melikyan’s Wired Gallery in High Falls – a fixture and foundation of what may be the new mid-Hudson Valley Golden Age – from July 1 through July 30, with an opening reception on Saturday, July 1 from 5 to 7 p.m. The exhibit includes works by professors Manny Bromberg, Ben Bishop, Harry Hurwitz, Ilya Bolotowsky, Bob Schuler and Edith Holt; students Karen Avey, Patricia Herz Deahl, Bob Draffen, Shelley Farkas Davis, Orelle Feher, Bill Gersh, Marie Greene, Betty Greenwald, Adrian Guillery, Robert Jones,
All living things, whether rooted or mobile, comprise what’s called the Earth’s biota: the naturally occurring flora and fauna of a given geographical region. We humans are endlessly fascinated with the lifeforms with which we share territory, and the depiction of biotic variety has been compelling to artists since…well, perhaps since prehistoric cave art was made. Most recently in the Hudson Valley, artists of the Tivoli Artists’ Gallery (TAG) have applied their talents to render the different facets of life around us in artistic expression. TAG’s exhibit “Flora and Fauna” opens on Friday, June 30 and runs through July 23, a show that explores such themes as nature, animal life, indigenous botanicals and our rich natural surroundings. Among the exhibiting artists are TAG members co-curator Maria Kolodziej-Zincio, Karl Volk, Cecelia Sinclair, Frana Baruch, Susan Picard, Joseph Turner, Gilbert Rios, Peggy Farrington, Andrew Marchisio and co-curator Julia Aneshansley. Additional artists include Anita Kiewra, C. Michael Bufi, Marie Cole, Fumiko Sugaya, Valerie Hoffmann, Janet Jappen, Sue Martin and Pam Tucker. An opening reception will be held this Saturday, July 1 from 6 to 8 p.m. A supervised children’s art table will also be set up, where kids can create their own interpretations of flora and fauna works of art and express their own passion and creativity for the world in which we live. According to Aneshansley, “This is simply one of my favorite shows. Life breeds life, art is life, and this exhibit is the coming together of the physical and artistic connections between it all.” TAG is a community-based organization dedicated to the artistic growth of Hudson Valley artists through rotating monthly exhibits in diverse media and subject matter. Summer hours are Friday from 5 to 8:30 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. or by appointment. – Ann Hutton “Flora & Fauna” opening reception, Saturday, July 1, 2-4 p.m., Tivoli Artists’ Gallery, 60 Broadway, Tivoli; (845) 7572667, www.tivoliartistsgallery.com.
Under the auspices of Lace Mill Arts, the exhibition aptly titled “Mavericks at Lace Mill” will run from July 1 through the 26th of the month in Lace Mill’s Main and West Galleries. Curated by Gallery committee member James Martin, the show will feature the works of five accomplished artists from the region: Kate McGloughlin, John A. Varriano, Eric Angeloch, Staats Fasoldt and Marsha Massih. Their reputations precede them; “Mavericks I” promises to be an awe-inspiring collection of works that First Saturday gallery-hoppers won’t want to miss. Each of the renowned artists has excelled in his or her unique style of painting, reports Martin, whether it’s still life, landscape, realistic or leaning towards the abstract. He notes each one’s deft techniques and prolific abilities. “In the title of the show, the word ‘mavericks’ has

Hardy orange’s flavor is nearly as sharp as its thorns t’s about ten years since I planted the cherry tree – a sweet, self-pollinating variety called Stella – on dwarfing rootstock. During that time, the trunk swelled to about seven inches in diameter and the branches shot skyward to 20 feet. Stella is now gone, and it was all my doing. She took ten years to grow, but only about an hour to cut down (with my new Stihl cordless electric chainsaw, which I highly recommend). The afterlife of her trunk is as firewood, her branches as chipped mulch. I warned Stella, who never bore one cherry, that this was her last chance. Finally, this spring she was loaded with blossoms, for the first time, followed by a good crop of developing cherries. A couple of weeks later, all the cherries were gone, except for two green ones that I noticed on a cut branch. The weather could not have been at fault, nor birds at this early stage in the game. My guess is either an insect (probably plum curculio), or that the tree from the nursery was mislabeled and it wasn’t Stella. Most varieties of sweet cherry need another variety nearby to set fruit. She was pretty, but not pretty enough to grow as a strictly ornamental plant.
I
Waiting to replace Stella was a citrus(!) tree, a tree I could not have planted even a couple or years ago. One reason I couldn’t have planted this tree is because it wasn’t a citrus tree back then. It’s a plant called hardy orange, previously assigned the genus and species Poncirus trifoliata. It has always been a close relative of citrus, even used as a rootstock on which to graft commercial citrus trees. Only
recently has it been fully welcomed into the fold and reassigned the botanical name Citrus trifoliata. So previously I would have been planting a Poncirus but now I planted a Citrus. Same plant, different name. The other reason I couldn’t have (or shouldn’t have) planted hardy orange under any name previously is because it’s only just barely winter-hardy here. Winters of a few years ago were consistently colder and would have killed the plant down to the ground. With stems cut back from cold, the plant would never have borne flowers, which have the look and delicious fragrance of other citrus flowers, or fruits, which look just like golfball-sized oranges. The flavor of the fruit is nothing to rave about: citrusy, yes, but also very sour, bitter and not very juicy. Used with restraint, though, the fruits can be used for homegrown citrus flavoring. The stems themselves, and their ominous thorns, are hardy orange’s selling points here. The plant is evergreen – not because it holds onto its leaves through winter, but because the stems are bright green year‘round. My hardy orange is the variety Flying Dragon, whose twisting and turning stems are lined with ominously large, recurved (and also green) thorns. Flying Dragon is a very interestingly attractive plant that can be used as flavoring, which is more than could have been said for my Stella. Except for Stella cherries, this year is shaping up to be an excellent year for fruits – even apples, plums and other tree fruits, which are always chancy on my farmden, which is a naturally poor site for fruitgrowing. Among many other fruits in the offing is a bumper crop of bright-red, gold-flecked gumi fruits (Elaeagnus multiflora). The fruits followed sweet-smelling blossoms that perfumed the air earlier in the season and are an ornamental adjunct to the silvery leaves. Plus, the fruits have good flavor if picked thoroughly ripe. The birds are having a field day with the gumis, so I only get to eat the fruits in their puckery stage when just that hint of good flavor can be detected in the background. I’ve hung old CDs among gumi’s branches (also among my mulberries’ branches), hoping the flashes of reflected light will scare birds away. It probably won’t, because visual deterrents, when they are effective, are so mostly against flocking birds. The gumis are being enjoyed mostly by robins and catbirds. Let the birds have their fun. Blackcurrants, which birds ignore, are also now ripe. And blueberries (my favorite) are ripening, and safe from birds, enclosed in the netted “blueberry temple.” – Lee Reich Any gardening questions?

Salma Hayek in Beatriz at Dinner
Emphatically empathic Brown woman confronts white privilege in Beatriz at Dinner
I
t’s Tentpole Time in Cinemaville: that period between Memorial Day and Labor Day when the big Hollywood studios haul out their bloated-budget action flicks with a vengeance. The discriminating viewer may hope for a few worthy popcornchompers over the course of the summer, and endure a few lesser offerings of shiny eye candy for the sake of the air conditioning alone. But in a week like this one, when one has already seen 20 minutes’ worth of some previous installment of the Transformers franchise while on the treadmill at the gym and firmly concluded that one need never see one minute more before shuffling off this mortal coil, a bit of digging may be required. Happily, this is also a time of year when art films that premiered at places like Sundance in late winter are trickling into the theaters, ready to reward one’s explorations. I’m going to save you a step of research by pointing you toward a little gem currently playing at Upstate Films, for which you will thank me. You may not like the ending. But you will have this movie stuck in your head long afterwards, for sure. The film is titled Beatriz at Dinner, directed by Miguel Arteta from a screenplay by Mike White. It’s being touted as the movie industry’s first overt fictional shot over the bow of the Trump administration, although the Trumpesque character – little-people-stomping real estate magnate Doug Strutt, played with
relish by the great John Lithgow – more closely resembles the guy before he took up politics as a hobby that requires less walking than golf. Lithgow is half the reason to see this movie, adding a twinkle of brash charm and perspicacity to an otherwise almost entirely repellent character. The other half is Salma Hayek, who brings her whole thespian game – and it is formidable indeed – to the portrayal of the title character. Between these two actors, who are absolutely electric together, Beatriz at Dinner is lifted far above any peril of straying into cartoonish polemics. That’s despite the fact that Beatriz is the sort of Southern Californian as easy to lampoon as a boorish capitalist: She’s a masseuse and holistic healer who keeps goats in her Altadena bedroom and both a Virgen de Guadalupe medal and a Buddha bobblehead on the dashboard of her beatup car (a car whose perpetual state of disrepair precipitates the story’s central crisis). As I’ve had cause to lament often before (I take it a bit personally), Hollywood has a dreadful track record of trying to render hippies realistically, without condescension. This film is a welcome exception. Though an early montage informs us that she is adept at every esoteric alternative healing modality known to Californians, Hayek’s Beatriz is no airy-fairy New Age caricature. She is an Empath with a capital E and a calling, period. The actress doesn’t need
to say much to convince us; it’s there in her centered carriage, her hyperfocused attentiveness. This is a born healer who knows instinctively what’s wrong with people, animals, the planet. An occasional magical-realist camera shot (the Pacific Ocean bleeding, for one) reinforces the impression, but they’re not laid on with a trowel. Hayek carries the weight of the world’s pain on her petite shoulders and still stands upright. After a trying day at a cancer clinic, Beatriz makes a house call on a wealthy client, Cathy (Connie Britton), who wants a treatment before she throws an important dinner party to celebrate the closing of business deal in which her husband Grant (David Warshofsky) was a key player. We discover that Cathy imagines Beatriz to be “a member of the family” because of the close bond that the healer formed with her daughter, a Hodgkins survivor who is now away at college. But when Beatriz’s car won’t start after the massage session and Cathy impulsively invites her to stay at their fancy house in a Newport Beach gated community for dinner, Grant is not happy. He has the legendary Strutt to impress, and Beatriz is Mexican-born. Predictably enough, the tycoon takes the last-minute guest for one of the household help, and things go downhill from there. As Beatriz is alternately ignored, talked over, belittled, badgered and eventually asked to leave, she remains utterly alert, clearly seeing through the vacuousness of these nouveau-riche types to their
inner damage – even Strutt. Once a few glasses of wine have loosened her tongue, Beatriz ignores all cues to play the social game and gives them what-for, focusing always on the human costs of their callous business dealings. She cuts right to the chase, telling how her own family was displaced and scattered when a huge resort development project similar to the one being celebrated descended on a little town in Mexico that none of the rich folk can pronounce. The women present keep trying to steer Beatriz back to less awkward small talk, but she has Strutt in her crosshairs and won’t shut up. And, to Arteta and Lithgow’s credit, Strutt is intrigued by her gentle chutzpah. Beyond the biting (and often very funny) satire, the possibility of real human connection hovers tantalizingly over this scene of social disaster, which belongs in any Top Ten list of movie dinners gone awry. But one healer, however gifted, cannot fix the whole world or stop the rampages of its worst human predators. Thus, audiences are stuck with a downbeat, vaguely symbolic ending when we might have wanted to march out of the cinema pumped for political battle. It’s almost as if the screenwriter and director felt that realism compelled them to end on a note of magical realism. No matter. Go join Beatriz at Dinner anyway. The wounded world needs a whole lot more Empaths right about now. – Frances Marion Platt

BOOK
GAIL GODWIN LAUNCHES NEW NOVEL THIS FRIDAY AT WOODSTOCK’S GOLDEN NOTEBOOK
G
etting into the head of a fiction writer requires you to understand that she has the uncanny ability to consider her characters to be real. Then you, too, begin to care about them. You get hooked by their humanity. It’s tricky business. So when New York Times book reviewer Sarah Lyall writes that Gail Godwin is “a forensically skillful examiner of her characters’ motives, thoughts and behavior,” she’s giving the author this godlike quality to have created very human characters – so much so that writing the story becomes a process of hope: hope that they behave themselves and that it all turns out in the end. Hope that some basic truth rings and that readers can relate and become inspired by it. Hope that it’s believable. Grief Cottage, Godwin’s latest offering, gives readers a glimpse into such a mind. The author genuinely takes responsibility for her characters’ authenticity. She is careful not to abuse them – especially when they are young, as is the case in this novel. Marcus is an orphaned 11-year-old, forced to move in with his dead mother’s alcoholic aunt, a taciturn artist accustomed to being alone. Exploring the South Carolina island on which she lives, Marcus encounters a mystery in the ghost of an unnamed boy who died in a hurricane 50 years previous. He is compelled to discover who this boy was; his family were renters on the island when the catastrophe struck, and no one remembers their names. Meanwhile, he adjusts to living without a mother, displaying a marked level of self-discipline and resourcefulness. If early trauma and loss are to be considered character-building, you want your hero to be handled as gently, albeit realistically, as Godwin handles Marcus. His maturity is tempered with just enough youthful abandon that the reader senses she’s not going to torture him. Still, scary things happen, making him question his own sanity, his own ability to carry on. Godwin has earned numerous literary accolades over the decades: National Book Award nominations, a Guggenheim Fellowship, an Award in Literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, grants from the National Endowment for the Arts for fiction and libretto writing. This is her 15th, one that she’d just started when I had the honor of interviewing her for her last book, Publishing. At the time, she had decided that her main character’s great-aunt would sustain an injury, so she experimented with painting with her own non-dominant hand. “Once you do it, even with your non-dominant hand, you get very seduced by it,” she told me. “And it has flowered. At first I tried to paint things that Aunt DION OGUST Gail Godwin Charlotte would be painting. Then last November I started drawing seriously. Now I have a blog on my website in which I present these pictures with an attached essay. You might say that writing Grief Cottage brought me into a whole new skill.” She says that, in turning to painting at a point in life in which you find yourself absolutely wordless for one reason or another, you can use shape and colors to express your feelings. I asked how the possibility that young children have open channels to the supernatural (angels, fairies) helped her to create this 11-year-old sensing the ghost of a long-dead child. In the novel, Godwin quotes D. W. Winnecott, one of the most respected child psychiatrists of the 1940s and ‘50s, who wrote that feelings of hopelessness or futility can cause the psyche to become “loosened,” and that the value of the ghost story lies in its drawing attention to the precariousness of this psyche/soma lack of anchoring. “I read all of Winnecott when I was writing this book. What really got Marcus going is when my sister invited me to come share a house with her at the beach for two weeks. I went and stayed with her and three young boys. At my age, I’d never watched so many boys in one room. I thought: A) they’re different and B) these particular boys are really secure. Then I started thinking about what it would be like if you weren’t secure. Every morning I walked on the beach and thought about [my late husband] Robert and about death. “One morning at dawn, I thought, ‘Everything seems to be sending me a message.’ I realized that this could be Marcus thinking. He’s on that borderline, too. Some things are good and some are not so good. He’s skeptical, and he’s death-oriented, but he’s a very kind person. It worries him that nobody misses the long-dead boy. And that nobody is going miss him. Then he feels the spirit and sees the spirit twice. Some time warp, combined with spirit, got them together.” Godwin’s expertise in setting a scene and moving a plot forward is reflected in her own heritage. Born in Alabama and raised in Asheville, North Carolina, she is adept at creating a very regional texture and pace. Meanwhile, her own pace at 80 may have slowed down, but she has already started a new book. “It’s quite different from this one. I’m sure nobody is going to like it,” she quips. “I’m sure Marcus is my best.” Then, “I just got home from my two-week book tour, and I’m feeling 100. But this book tour has given me things that were supposed to happen. At my final appearance in Washington DC, “Politics and Prose,” after I’d read, a small woman about my age came up and introduced herself. She went to St. Genovese with me; I’d known her since I was seven. She has become a renowned child psychiatrist and was president of the American Psychiatric Association. She said it seems that Marcus is going to go this way. Children who know how it is to be at danger, at risk, if they’re a certain kind of person and are curious about it, they want to save others. It was a fitting end to that tour. It was like a completion: I wrote about grown people for awhile, and then I wrote about a teenager, and now this story about a child. It’s going back almost to the source. And there was this friend from 1945!” Braiding multiple thematic strands – the orphaned child, familial alcoholism, the supernatural/psychological element, the threat of demise, childhood relationships – Godwin intertwines them all to tell the story of one young person’s ultimate selfauthentication. Grief Cottage is a recapitulation of sorts. It could even be true. – Ann Hutton

FOR ADOPTION- 2 sweet Cat Brothers and a loving Lab Mix. I must move because of health reasons. Please let me know if you can give my sweet boys loving homes for the rest of their lives. BOSS and KITTY are 4-year old cat brothers who love to cuddle, wrestle & sleep together. They’re very sweet, well behaved cats, neutered, up to date w/ shots, litter pan trained, good w/dogs & other cats as long as they aren’t bullies. BARRON is 3-years old, neutered & up to date w/shots. We think he’s a Lab mix, 63 pounds, loves to go on walks, hikes & enjoys play dates w/other dogs. He likes to play w/his ball and chew on bones. When he has a ball or bone in his mouth, he parades it around so everyone can see. If you’d like more information about my sweet animals, please text or call my friend at 917-282-2018 or email DRJLPK@aol.com Want to help but can’t adopt a cat? Don’t forget about our Foster Program!
