Christy Rupp exhibition opens this Saturday at Cross in Saugerties Cross Contemporary Art at 99 Partition Street in the Village of Saugerties will hold an opening reception for “Christy Rupp: Catastrophozoic” on Saturday, September 30 from 5 to 8 p.m. The show will remain on view through the end of the month. Rupp’s paper collages and sculptures focus on the ways that humans contribute to climate chaos with indiscriminate carbon emissions, water contamination and resource extraction. (The term “catastrophozoic” refers to an alternate classification of an era that emphasizes animal life rather than human existence.) Her welded-steel-and-plastic sculptures study the vulnerability of birdlife through the lens of art history, utilizing the imagery of Frida Kählo’s frightened Parrots to Fabritius’ captured Goldfinch. Rupp constructs the birds from discarded plastic netting used in supermarkets for wrapping produce: a reference to the manner in which plastic persists in the environment, threatening wildlife. In some of her works on paper, reproductions of Hudson River School paintings are bisected by train-pulled oil cars or a maze of leaking pipelines.

Dutch decorative art collection at Historic Huguenot Street Historic Huguenot Street (HHS) in New Paltz will present “Living in Style: Selections from the George Way Collection of Dutch Fine and Decorative Art.” The exhibit will open on Sunday, October 1 and remain on view through December 17. The special installation of a period room in the historic Jean Hasbrouck House celebrates the enduring impact of Dutch culture and the New Netherland colony in the Hudson Valley. A preview of the room will take place on Saturday, September 30 as part of HHS’s Fall Harvest Celebration. Highlights of the period room to be installed at the Hasbrouck House include two elaborately carved side chairs based on the engraved designs of Daniel Marot, a French Huguenot architect and designer largely responsible for the interiors at William of Orange’s palace at Het Loo. Marot worked for William before and after the latter became coregent of England, Ireland and Scotland with his wife, Mary II. The chairs feature serpentine stretchers, trumpet legs and ball feet, all typical of the Dutch Golden Age: an unprecedented era of economic prosperity and high artistic achievement in the arts and sciences. Other furniture in the period room include a tulip-carved lift-top chest with the initials of its original owners and dated 1701, a graduated chest of drawers, various side chairs, a barleytwist walnut stool and a rare carved rack designed to hold 14 pipes. The room will also feature a Dutch-made cupboard or kast, a furniture form that was popularly adapted in the Hudson Valley into the early 19th century. Examples of these American kasten (plural) will be featured in adjacent rooms of the Hasbrouck House, to compare and contrast with the Dutch cupboard. Seventeenth-century Dutch portraits, still lifes and genre scenes in oil will enhance the furnishings, along with Delft ceramics and other decorative pieces. Way’s collection of iron and brass utensils will be featured

Celebrate the Stinking Rose Hudson Valley Garlic Festival in Saugerties this weekend

T

he Hudson Valley Garlic Festival returns to Cantine Field in Saugerties on Saturday, September 30 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, October 1 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Single-day admission costs $10 at the gate and it’s a rainor-shine event. Advance tickets cost $7 for adults and $5 for seniors over age 65, available online and at all Adams Fairacre Farm locations and Smith’s Hardware, M&T Bank and Sawyer Savings in Saugerties until 5 p.m. on September 30. Children under age 12 are admitted free

when accompanied by an adult. The Garlic Marketplace will have an abundance of farmers and growers selling softneck garlic and the harder-to-find hardneck garlic along with garlic scapes: those curling extensions of the stalk that appear about a month after the first leaves when it’s growing. Usually they get cut off and tossed out, since they’ll divert the plant’s growing strength away from the bulb; but the scapes are edible and can used as an ingredient in cooking or chopped in a salad for delicate garlic flavor. Garlic-based products likely to

be available at the festival include salsa, hummus, pasta sauce, sausage, pickles, olives, cheese and even chutney, as well as garlic caramels, fudge and ice cream. In addition to all the garlic activity, live entertainment will be provided by Ian Flanigan, Annie and the Hedonists, Mark Rust, the Bondville Boys, James Rissacher, Bells & Motley Olden Music/Dance and Storytelling, the Homegrown String Band and Sundad. There will be traditional harvest dancing by the Morris dancers, and One World Puppetry’s Garlic Giant and Garlic Fairy will walk the festival grounds. Saugerties-based Arm-of-theSea Theater will perform the Turtle Island Medicine Show, featuring their blend of live music and larger-than-life puppet characters that appeal to adults as well as kids. The craft vendors will be out in force and the children’s area will feature

pumpkin-decorating and other fun activities, face-painting and a climbing wall. Chef demos and lecturers include Saugerties-based chefs and restaurateurs Jorge Rodriguez of the Main Street Restaurant and Ric Orlando of New World Home Cooking, chef Noah Sheetz and vegetable expert Crystal Stewart from Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ulster County. And don’t forget to cast a vote for your favorite poster for next year’s Hudson Valley Garlic Festival. The Kiwanis Club of Saugerties, which puts on this garlic extravaganza every year, sponsors an annual poster contest in which artists submit designs in advance, and then the three finalists are displayed at the Garlic Festival at the information/press tent. The public chooses the winner from those three, based on creativity, originality and a style that would translate well into tee-shirt design, promo posters and printed materials for next year’s event. The winner receives cash and a poster and tee-shirt featuring his or her design, and the pleasure of seeing their work in the upcoming year promoting the 2018 incarnation of the Festival to come. Preferred on-site parking is available for the annual festival, offering the only onsite parking available within the complex. The cost is $10 per vehicle, which allows parking several hundred feet from the festival entry booth on Small World Avenue. Preferred parking saves the hassle of taking shuttle buses or walking varying distances from satellite parking lots. On-site RV parking is available with electrical and water hookups. To purchase a preferred parking pass, use the link provided when purchasing advance tickets for the festival at www.hvgf.org or access the link directly at www.kiwanisicearena. com/garlicfestivalpremiumparking.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

The nose knows Sweet Annie is worth growing for its scent alone

S

ome plants straddle the fence of being defined as a weed. Case in point: sweet Annie. On looks alone, the plant could easily fall to one side of the fence, qualifying only as a weed. It’s nothing more than a nondescript upright plant (until it bends over from its own weight) that’s green, clumps of them sprouting all over the place. Despite being a member of the daisy family of plants, sweet Annie’s flowers are small, pale-green and not notable. I, and many other gardeners, grow the plant for its rich, resiny aroma. Bundles of them are for sale from many farms at Maine’s Common Ground Fair; it’s the signature aroma there. So, I also grow sweet Annie to bring me back, olfactorily speaking, to my good times at the Fair. As a sometime weed, sweet Annie is, of course, easy to grow. I first planted it three years ago, sowing it, unnecessarily, in pots for later transplanting. No need to plant it again; it self-seeds enthusiastically, my job now being to contain that enthusiasm. Amazing how that plant can move around. It managed to find its way from the back of my house to the front of my house without going around either side. It manages to sprout in spaces between the bricks of my terraces holding the thinnest slivers of soil. Sweet Annie is sometimes cultivated as a row crop for harvest and extraction of artemisinin, which has some medicinal uses. As for me, I just weed out plants in the wrong place (as defines a weed), and harvest a few bunches to hang near the door for an olfactory treat as I brush past it.

Sweet Annie is sometimes cultivated as a row crop for harvest and extraction of artemisinin, which has some medicinal uses.

The peaches on a friend’s tree were small, marred with bacterial spot disease and still showed some green on their skins. So burdened with fruits was the tree that it had burst asunder from their weight, splitting one of the main limbs. Still, the friend insisted that the peaches tasted good. As further enticement, the tree had a history, having sprouted on the grounds of a nearby 18th-century house that had an orchard. The tree was evidently cold-hardy also. So, I twisted one fruit off and took a bite. In spite of being not quite ripe, the fruit was delicious, quite sweet – as is usual with white peaches such as these – and with an old-fashioned, intensely peachy flavor. I took up the offer to take a small bag of them home with me – and not only for eating. My plan is to save the seeds from many of them for planting and for making into new trees that should taste very much like their mother tree. Peaches are self-pollinating (in contrast to apples and pears), so progeny often resemble their parent. Peaches also bear within just a few years from seed, so I could weed out some or all plants whose fruits were not up to snuff. The first step to a peachy future was to crack open the shells surrounding each seed, and then drop the seeds into a plastic bag filled with potting soil on the workbench in

On October 1 from 2 to 5 p.m., I will be hosting a Fall Fruit Workshop and Tasting at my farmden in New Paltz. This workshop will cover what fruits are best and easiest to grow, and how to grow them. Participants will also get to taste delectable fruits such as pawpaw, persimmon, hardy kiwifruit, aki-gumi and more.

my unheated garage. In their natural environment, peach seeds ripen in summer, but wouldn’t sprout until spring. If they sprouted immediately, winter cold would likely kill the very young seedling. Hormones within the seeds sense when winter has ended by the number of accumulated hours at cool (30 to 45 degrees Fahrenheit) temperatures. The number of hours depends on the genetics of the tree, but for most hardy fruit trees, about 1,000 hours, or about a month-and-a-half, do the trick. And I do intend to trick them, to give them an early start on the season, indoors. The more that they grow each season, the sooner they bear. I’d like them to sprout in early March, so will put the bag of potting soil and peach seeds into my refrigerator in early December. Once they sprout, I’ll pot a few up and, once they emerge from the soil, move them to the sunniest window or the greenhouse; then, when weather warms, outdoors.

NIGHT SKY

Clouds Things you never knew

W

e are now in the middle of our region’s clearest time of year. Long-term statistical meteorological studies show that late-August-to-late-October has our fewest clouds. And it’s not a subtle phenomenon. In the midHudson Valley and adjoining areas, the period November through April averages 65 percent cloud cover: two-thirds cloudy. And much of that includes full days of solid overcast. But right now, it’s only half as cloudy. We average one-third cloud cover in early autumn. The changeover usually happens abruptly, around the first of November, so that it’s not wrong to generalize October as being a sunny month and November as a cloudy one. The types of clouds vary, too. From May through August, we see lots of puffy individual ones. These cumulus clouds are often due to convection, meaning uprising daytime heating. So the common summer scenario is to awake with totally clear skies, but then see a few individual puffs forming between 9 and 10 a.m. as the daytime heating begins to take hold. Their number increases in late morning, and by afternoon they may take up half the sky. Some can develop into thunderstorms, and their scattered nature yields sunshowers, which in turn can produce rainbows (but only after 4 p.m., since a rainbow cannot appear if the Sun is more than halfway up the sky). Our warm half of the year thus creates interesting-looking clouds with cauliflower designs that nature-lovers stop to admire…and possible rainbows. By contrast, our cold half of the year often features flat stratus clouds with few if any shapes to them, and no chance for rainbows. Thus it’s not just a matter of degree of cloudiness; their varieties are seasonal, too. The average cloud weighs a million pounds. So when kids wonder how a cloud can stay aloft, it’s not a dumb question. The answer is that this weight is so spread out, each cubic yard (or cubic meter, if you prefer) can easily hover in any sort of updraft. Each cubic yard of cloud weighs just half a gram, or about 1/50th of an ounce. This is the weight of its liquid water, since there’s half a gram of water in each cubic yard of cloud. The air contained in the cloud has weight, too, but we’re not counting it since it’s the same as the surrounding air. The other type of cloud we commonly get is cirrus, made entirely of ice crystals. These

The average cloud weighs a million pounds.

Occasionally at this time of year, when the Sun is lowish but not extremely low, look overhead and you may see an upside-down rainbow called a circumzenithal arc.

feathery or wispy clouds are always very high up, and are often semi-transparent. They are responsible for colorful halos around the Moon or Sun, and parhelia or sundogs, which are brilliant colorful blotches to the right or left of the low Sun. Very thin cirrus can be invisible, and here is where their magic can truly shine. Occasionally at this time of year, when the Sun is lowish but not extremely low, look overhead and you may see an upside-down rainbow. This giant “smile” shape is an arc that precisely surrounds the zenith; hence it is called the circumzenithal arc, or CZA. Typically the arc is one-third of a circle, or 120 degrees, and never a complete circle around the overhead point. Its colors are astoundingly vivid – more saturated than even a rainbow’s. But it’s not a rainbow. It’s magically seen against a blue sky, not superimposed on distant rain. And it’s not opposite the Sun. And its source is ice crystals, not liquid droplets. So there you have it. When water is in its gaseous form, it’s invisible. When it’s liquid droplets, it’s a cloud (or fog if it’s on the ground). When it’s ice crystals, it’s cirrus clouds, which create so much colorful magic. Now in October we enjoy the final sunny period, before clouds rule our lives until late next spring. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

Catskills Lark in the Park events get underway this Saturday The 14th annual Catskills Lark in the Park will be held from Saturday, September 30 through Monday, October 9. The Lark was started in 2004 by the Catskill Mountain Club (CMC) on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Catskill Park. Since its inception, the Lark has brought together thousands of people and dozens of organizations hosting hundreds of recreational events, all aimed at heightening the awareness of the Catskill Mountain region and the Catskill Park. Activities have included organized hikes, bicycle trips, paddles, stewardship, cultural and educational events. The coordination of the Lark is managed through a partnership among the Catskill Mountain Club, the Catskill Center and the New York/New Jersey Trail Conference. During the Lark’s ten days, there will be a great variety of outdoor workshops teaching everything from fly-fishing to nature photography, kayaking to “leave no trace,” educational walks, local history, ecology, invasive plants, mushrooms and local wildlife. Each year there are maintenance workshops to improve the park’s 350 miles of foot trails and leantos. These events are held throughout the park within Delaware, Greene, Sullivan and Ulster Counties.

Events this year include a Backpacking Essentials hike on Saturday, September 30 from 2:30 p.m. until Sunday, October 1 at 5 p.m. An experienced long-distance hiker will host a backpacking hike and workshop for aspiring and novice backpackers. Paddle the scenic Pepacton Reservoir on Saturday, September 30 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. A film screening of America’s First Forest: Carl Schenk and the Asheville Experiment will be held on Saturday, September 30 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Open Eye Theater in Margaretville. Sponsored by the Catskill Forest Association, the film explores how, at a critical time, an extraordinary group of men converged at the magnificent Biltmore Estate in North Carolina to address a critical question: Could the Scientific Revolution stop the Industrial Revolution from destroying America’s forests? The Catskill Park and its Forest Preserve are a 705,000-acre patchwork of public and private lands. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation is responsible for managing the 350,000 acres of “forever wild” forest preserve lands within the park. The primary objective is to provide public outdoor recreation and access. In addition to the Forest Preserve lands, the New York City Department of Environmental Protection owns and manages more than 150,000 acres, protecting New York City’s watershed for drinking water. The remaining property within the park is owned privately.

STAGE Disgraced to open at Shadowland Shadowland Stages in Ellenville is getting ready to produce Ayad Akhtar’s explosive, Pulitzer-winning 2013 drama Disgraced. Melisa Annis directs. Centering on an upscale dinner party conversation that goes horribly awry, the play wrestles with issues of ethnic, political and religious identity that have become even more timely since it was written. The characters include Amir (Raji Ahsan), a successful Pakistani-American attorney who’s trying to put his Muslim heritage behind him; his Anglo artist wife Emily (Carey Urban), who appropriates Islamic themes in her painting; his cousin Abe (Kanwar Singh), who talks him into testifying on behalf of a possibly radical Muslim cleric who Abe suspects is being railroaded; Jory (Monica Rounds), his Michael Rhodes and Molly Parker Myers star in Constellations (photo by Deborah Lopez Lynch)

Rom/com with a Rashomon spin Constellations at Tangent in Tivoli

T

ivoli’s adventurous Tangent Theatre Company will present Nick Payne’s two-character 2012 play Constellations beginning this Thursday, September 28 and running through October 22. It’s a thoughtful rom/com with a Rashomon sort of spin: How would this romance play out differently if its participants could tweak one tiny thread or another, such as the tone of voice in which a particular statement was made? Marianne (Molly Parker Myers), an astrophysicist, espouses the multiverse model of reality; and Constellations poses the what-if questions over and over, allowing Marianne and her beekeeper boyfriend Roland (Michael Rhodes) to replay key scenes from their relationship to see what different outcomes they might generate. Mix in a dash of infidelity and a major health

crisis, and you get a recipe for some wistful, rueful humor. The amazing and ubiquitous Christine Crawfis directs. Tangent held a pub reading of the play last year, which proved to be one of its most popular to date. “The audience reaction was so strong. We knew this story would resonate with our audience and would be a unique, immersive experience. With so much conflict in the world today, this play will get people thinking about life, love, fate and consequences,” said Rhodes. Constellations will be performed at 8 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and at 3 p.m. on Sundays for the next four weeks at the Carpenter Shop Theater, located at 60 Broadway in Tivoli. Tickets are for unreserved seating and go for $25. To purchase, call (845) 230-7020 or visit http://tangent-arts.org.

I

very nearly passed on seeing Stronger, David Gordon Greene’s new film about the rehabilitation experiences of Boston Marathon bombing survivor Jeff Bauman, simply because I found the movie’s tagline off-

putting: “Strength defines us.” Seems to me a reductionist, flag-waving approach to an onscreen consideration of the complicated experiences of post-traumatic stress disorder and adaptation to a sudden physical disability. Fortunately, the movie transcends the usual inspirational-true-life-TV-movie tropes to a considerable degree, largely due to the layered

performances by the main cast. I still would’ve liked it to send me out into daylight with more of a takeaway message of, “How do we define ‘strength’?” Each audience member will bring his or her own experiential mix to a tale like Bauman’s, and ask more or less of it thereby. I came to it with a history of several months of PTSD following a traumatic brain injury 15 years ago. Having been precipitated by a moment of foolish inattention while rock scrambling, my experience carries none of the political weight of having been a victim of a terrorist attack; nor does it include survivor guilt, short of the inconvenience

that my temporary disability imposed on my inner circle. Moreover, my incapacity was not nearly so profound nor as lasting as losing one’s legs at the knee. But I do know that PTSD terrors and flashbacks aren’t necessarily as literal, as one-toone as they are rendered onscreen in Stronger. In my own experience, they were often more symbolic or absurd, like dream imagery. Would audiences have “gotten it” if Greene had delved more deeply into the murk of Bauman’s unconscious, instead of simply intercutting shots of his mangled legs in the immediate wake of the bombing as he recovers his memories of that day? Maybe not. But it might’ve been more profound and thought-provoking cinematic art. What Greene, his core cast and

Getting “stronger” is mostly about learning to take full responsibility for one’s choices.

A fantasy in four-wheel drive Ellenville’s Northeast Off-Road Adventures is the brainchild of engineer Scott Trager

“A

bout ten years ago I had a Jeep, and I drove it back and forth to the Metro North train station, and that’s about as far as I went,” says Scott Trager, founder of Northeast Off-Road Adventures (NORA). “I was about to get rid of it, and my oldest son said, ‘Before you do, could we try going off-roading for once?’ I said, ‘Sure.’ So in 2007, I got involved in a Jeep Jamboree out in Pennsylvania. Took my two oldest kids, and we got stuck a lot! And it was fun! It was exhilarating being out in the woods, out away from the office. It was just amazing. I came back, and the engineer voice inside of me said, ‘Let’s put on bigger tires and do this again without getting stuck.’” Trager explains some of the modifications to the suspension and drive train that he did on this vehicle before heading out to another Jamboree in the Catskills. “Then I joined the Hudson Valley Four-Wheelers, which gave me access to private land and, more importantly, people who know what they’re doing. I started going out as much as I could – twice a month for several years – and became an officer of the club. I realized over time that this is what I’d want to do when I get out of my corporate life.” This is the short version of how Trager turned his passion into a reality when he invested in the purchase of 68 wilderness acres at the top of a hill south of Ellenville and turned them into a successful business: an off-road driving school and adventure tours. The longer version of the story entails six months searching for the right property, then a couple of years getting through the permit process with the Town of Wawarsing. “In order to do this, you can’t just go before the Planning Board and say, ‘Hey, I want to open a driving school.’ You have to own the land first. It’s a huge gamble. The Planning Board was receptive, and then they set up a public hearing in the Town. And for the next year-and-a-half, there was a lot of organized opposition.” People were worried about the noise and degradation of the environment, even the potential harm to indigenous species in the area. Through it all, having to hire more lawyers and engineers and satisfying everyone’s concerns, Trager was determined. “This is my dream, and I wasn’t about to let someone falsely shut me down. We are an off-road driving school, not the truck-racing, beer-guzzling fiends that they talked about. Now, in the years we’ve been in operation, we’ve helped out local charities, and it’s all good. The insurance was killer at the beginning. I got in touch with Sprague and Killeen here in Ellenville, and they helped us. It was expensive at first, but as the years have gone by and they’ve seen our track record – we’ve trained over 800 students without incident – our insurance keeps dropping.” He says that it was a “family-and-friends effort” finally to open in 2014. “The first year was sort of tough; not too many people knew about us. But even if we had one student, we’d run the class. The second year we started marketing and word got out, and it picked up. This year has been phenomenal. We’ve got 68 acres with GPSaccurate trails throughout the property to train anyone from beginners to advanced skills – training such as how to use recovery gear on a vehicle, a high-lift jack, a winch, recovery devices. Recovery as in, ‘I’m stuck, and I need to get unstuck.’” Trager and NORA’s vice president John Mapes are certified by the International

Four-Wheel Drive Trainers’ Association. In fact, Trager says that there are only 80 or so individuals in the world who have been certified. “The process culminates with a 200-question examination that goes in depth in terms of your understanding of off-road vehicle operations, mechanics, safety, terrain, all aspects of vehicle recovery and principles of adult education. When we have really big events, we can pull from this high-caliber group of individual trainers.” Typically, NORA runs classes for up to 25 vehicles, breaking that number into multiple groups. “We have a staff that loves doing this,” says Trager. “Our focus is providing quality education and experience. In addition to the offroad driving school, we’re an adventure company. We offer themed events, and we’ll take people in our adventure club to different locations and do barbecues, take them out for a night ride, which is pretty cool.” “We are extremely mindful of our terrain. What we teach are techniques to maintain traction at all times. It’s not about pointing and shooting, or flooring it. We go as fast as necessary, but as slow as possible. We don’t want to rut up our trails. We trim back the trees so that expensive vehicles that come out will not be ‘pinstriped’ by branches.” NORA has also trained Federal Emergency Management Agency teams. “They are the true heroes that go out to keep things running,” says Trager. “To be able to train them to do their job is just a great feeling.” He hopes to offer classes in wilderness medicine, too. Trager's enthusiasm for off-roading is infectious. “What we’re doing here is giving people the skills to do these adventures. To be able to have a mechanized vehicle to help you – and it’s so easy to get stuck and panic. You can break stuff when you panic; you strain your components and your drive train. We teach vehicle preservation. We want you to come out of those woods with your vehicle intact, and be environmentally conscientious about it.” Trager is a computer scientist and electrical engineer with a Master’s degree in Management Science. “I’ve done all these engineering-type things, which are very cerebral. I needed some outlet, aside from sitting down and calculating stuff. So getting out in nature sounded good, and I got totally hooked on it. This is a passionbased business, one that offers the freedom of being outdoors. You can’t always be on; it’s stressful and so unhealthy.” – Ann Hutton

“We are extremely mindful of our terrain. What we teach are techniques to maintain traction at all times... We go as fast as necessary, but as slow as possible.”

screenwriter John Pollono do get right is Bauman’s bewilderment at being treated as a hero, simply for surviving (and for helping to identify a suspect, though the hunt for the perpetrators is entirely – and rightly – peripheral to his story). I can verify that when someone wellintentioned comes up to you and says, “You’re so brave,” when all you’re doing is enduring what you cannot choose but to endure, and continuing to put one foot (whether prosthetic or metaphorical) in front of another, you may well feel an urge to smack them upside the head, or at the very least roll your eyes. You want credit for what you do on your own volition, not for what happened to happen to you. As we probably all learn eventually from life, whether we ever find ourselves in a PTSD-inducing situation or not, getting “stronger” is mostly about learning to take full responsibility for one’s choices. Stronger is unflinching, and Jake Gyllenhaal’s performance mesmerizing, when the camera homes in on the simple physical frustrations of coping, sans legs, with life in a walkup apartment in a bluecollar Boston suburb. Compounding his physical limitations is the fact that Bauman – a feckless, directionless (though occasionally charming) man/boy when we first meet him – is surrounded by family and friends who have few ideas about

how to help him cope, beyond getting drunk with him. The worst and most fully realized of these is his smug, resentful, alcoholic harridan of a mother, Patty, played with extraordinary fearlessness by the great Miranda Richardson. I couldn’t help feeling sorry for Jeff Bauman’s reallife mother, wondering how she feels about her memory being captured for the ages in so blatantly unflattering a form. The rest of the protagonist’s crew of profane, beer-swilling Red Sox fans comes across as pretty stereotypical urbanredneck, and there are some class-based judgments implicit in this script that, shall we say, lack nuance – especially once we meet the more educated, genteel family of Bauman’s on-again, off-again girlfriend, Erin Hurley (Tatiana Maslany). But there are some nicely underplayed moments for his loutish friends as well, such as a barbecue scene at which this gang of guys who are apt to sling around “faggot” as a casual insult learn to appreciate the support that their buddy has been receiving from his gay boss, Kevin (Danny McCarthy). Most of the finer acting beats in Stronger come from Maslany, renowned for her chameleonlike mastery of multiple roles on the TV series Orphan Black. Erin’s reinvolvement with ex-boyfriend Jeff is at first spurred by her sense of guilt that

he was in the path of the bomb merely because he wanted to impress her by cheering her on in the marathon. But she also susses very quickly that his clown car of a family isn’t going to get him through this, and that she needs to stay quietly involved despite his mother’s hostility to her. Through her eyes we get to see Baumann at his nastiest and his most winsome alike. Admiration for Erin’s steadfast supportiveness is kept below the cloying level: I wanted to cheer when she finally said “enough” and left Jeff in a parked car to drag himself upstairs on his own. Even self-sacrificing movie heroines need to have their limits, and defining hers is part of Erin’s own process of growing stronger. They’re also something that Jeff needs to acknowledge if their relationship is to continue. In real life, we know, there was no fairytale ending. This couple married,

had a baby and then, earlier this year, announced their divorce. If there is ever to be a sequel, I hope that it’s mainly about Erin Hurley and where her own arc is heading – preferably with a woman directing. In a perfect world, Maslany, Gyllenhaal and Richardson would be up for playing these roles again. – Frances Marion Platt

Jazz supergroup Hudson plays Bardavon

T

he radical reading of standards, musical theater staples and pop songs is a jazz rite of passage. But does pop culture still produce a vibrant supply of subjects for jazz transformation? Brad Mehldau would say yes. The great and epochal jazz guitarist

John Scofield really began to express his abiding interest in non-jazz covers on 2005’s That’s What I Say, a tribute to the music of Ray Charles on which Scofield, in the manner of Wes Montgomery in the ‘60s, temporarily suspends the cerebral difficulty of modern jazz, invoking his instantly recognizable voice as a player

to “state” Charles’ memorable songs and to comment on them within strict and reverent limits. I think it might have scored a Grammy – maybe his first. The trend continues on Sco’s exceptionally fine 2007 record This Meets That (really, one of his best), in which he offers up a brilliantly lyrical rendition of the country standard “Behind Closed Doors,” a swinging and eccentric duet with Bill Frisell on the theme of “House of the Rising Sun” and a propulsive Ray Charlesinspired take on “Satisfaction” amidst a set of Scofield originals, alternating between his Minimalist groove mode and his extravagant gift for heartbreaking, cheesefree ballads. When Scofield got back together with his once-a-decade studio bandmates Medeski, Martin and Wood for the 2014 effort Juice, their third, the spirit of classic covers was still very much in the air, and the rules, as one would, expect, were considerably looser. “Light My Fire,” “Sunshine of Your Love” and “The Times They Are a-Changin’” get fully Martinized, at times unrecognizably. So that is your background for understanding the group behind the album Hudson. This is indisputably a supergroup. It finds Scofield reuniting with the Jazz Rushmore drummer and Woodstock icon Jack DeJohnette, who drummed on Scofield’s 1990 record Time on My Hands, which was arguably the pivot point in Scofield’s career, from “just another” late-era fusion guitarist and Miles alum/disciple to one of the most distinctive and vital voices that the instrument and the genre have known. On keys, we find none other than the aforementioned John Medeski, whose primacy in the reclamation and reinvention of fusion simply cannot be overstated. Before MM&W, fusion was dead. It was TV themes, blue blazers and bad alto. It was, in short, G. MM&W and the other New York City scenesters of the

time (from which milieu Scofield would recruit his Über Jam band) reconnected to the Minimalist, skronky, spontaneous and “sound art” element of Miles’ first forays into fusion. They did it with such verve, topicality and irresistible groove that they almost singlehandedly rekindled the interest of rock fans in jazz precepts. From there, it is only 13 complex steps to understanding how Scofield ended up in Phil Lesh’s band. On bass is Larry Grenadier. If you haven’t heard of him, rest assured that every big name in jazz has. They keep his cell number in their breast pockets. An extraordinarily fluid and sympathetic player, who, like all the great bassists, operates as a free agent at the intersection of harmony and groove, Grenadier is probably best-known for playing the Scott LaFaro role in Brad Mehldau’s empathic piano trios, but the list of people with whom Grenadier has collaborated begins and ends with “everyone.” Whether the quartet is led by DeJohnette, I am not sure; but his name comes first because he is Jack freaking DeJohnette, and jazz is an art of tradition and deference as much as of innovation and ego. Well, actually, now that I look at it, the masthead is alphabetical: D, G, M and S. So, apologies to the collective and to Jack in particular for implying that he would demand or even recognize such obeisance. Personally and professionally, I have no problem with Jack coming first. Hudson is not a pure covers record. It begins with what is, honestly, a somewhat meandering and long funk jam (the title track) in the tradition of Miles’ polarizing ’72 record On the Corner (on which You-Know-Who drummed). But this is, despite its rock ruses, a jazz record, and in jazz the hand that has writ moves on, without apology. I cannot even count the

September 28, 2017 number of great jazz records that begin forbiddingly, with a red herring of a freejazz exploration, before getting on with the real content at hand. It’s an anticommercial strategy if ever there were one, but it has been a very long time since jazz was commercial music. “Hudson” is followed by “El Swing,” a delightful straight-up modern jazz/swing number penned by Scofield. Then the cultural horseplay begins with a take on “Lay Lady Lay,” a gorgeous and fairly staid reading of Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock,” some more Dylan, some more group originals and finally, a thematic linchpin: Medeski, on piano, driving a deliriously off-kilter ragtime reading of “Up on Cripple Creek.” See, the album is called Hudson: the Band, Woodstock, Dylan. It’s a thematic thing. To hear DeJohnette paying such profound and genuine homage to the deep pocket of his neighbor Levon Helm brought the buds of genuine tears to my eyes, but I’ve got work to finish here. DeJohnette, Grenadier, Medeski and Scofield perform at the Bardavon in Poughkeepsie on Wednesday, October 4 at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $49, $59 and $79.

The high-character and detail-oriented songwriter is broadly “in the tradition” of his parents; but so are most of us, when you think about it – if we play guitars at all. Mendelson is not a bad sur- for your name, either, if you add an “h” and an extra “s” and claim descent from the great brother-and-sister prodigy pair of Felix and Fanny. Well, I’m not sure that the gifted progressive folk/pop songwriter Leslie Mendelson cares much about those twin titans of Romantic music; but on her 2017 effort Love & Murder, there is plenty of evidence of deep, genre-defying range in the record’s variety of ambient mood pieces and whispered piano Impressionism.

U “Thompson,” the sur- in Teddy Thompson’s name, is not a bad music industry handle – especially if you have any interest whatsoever in the great school of British progressive folk and all of its downhill streams. In that tradition, Teddy’s father Richard Thompson is a royal among royals. And in the opinion of many of his admirers (including me), the best work Richard ever did was the six albums with Teddy’s mother Linda Thomp-

ntangle the Wainwright/McGarrigle/Roche et cetera family tree if you dare. Or just sit back and enjoy the many streams of an authentically importantly confluence of folk music and family. Sloan Wainwright, obviously, fits in there somewhere (sister of Loudon Wainwright III), and has enjoyed her own distinct and productive career as a songwriter and record-maker. A profoundly commanding singer and eclectic writer, as likely to channel jazz ballads and low-key blues as folksongs, Sloan Wainwright has been releasing records steadily since her 1996 debut. That’s the key: Her use of harmonic structures outside the pale of traditional folk aligns her more closely with James Taylor than with her famous brother. What a beautiful pairing at Colony in Woodstock on Saturday, September 30 at 8 p.m. On the bill with Sloan Wainwright is one of the Hudson Valley’s most luminous and gifted “expanded folk” talents, Jude Roberts: a writer of deceptively complex and crafty folk-pop armed with exceptional skills as a singer and selfaccompanist.

There’s no overestimating the influence of the Cowboy Junkies on the aesthetics of "low", leading, decades after they rocked the world with whispers, directly to the phenomenon of dreampop and to the genre that I hereby deem closet folk (think early Iron and Wine). Appraised in context with such peers as Portishead and Mazzy Star, Margo Timmins and the band recalibrated the dynamics of rock, and their path remains evergreen with those with the courage for quiet and slow. Funny that their latest, a quite strong 2016 roots-rock spaceout called, almost too descriptively, Notes Falling Slow, begins with wrenched squalls of fuzzedout electric guitar. They are, of course, spacey and strangely discomfiting squalls; and when a tremolo-guitar arpeggio takes over the carriage of the song, the fuzzed electric immediately becomes what I always knew it would be: peripheral, a fringe disturbance. But on Notes Falling Slow, the Cowboy Junkies do in fact display a higher gear dynamically.

For our current purposes, let’s define environmental art as visual art installations as well as temporal arts (music, dance, theater) and the electronic ones, integrated into and communicating with the settings in which they are performed/displayed. The move is hot with grant-providers and grant-hunters alike. But here’s the thing: It helps to have a great environment to cast as a player in your concept. Factories are cool, even if the notion that a lotta MoCAs can replace, like, manufacturing as the economic engine of America’s bottomless supply of small, dead cities is patently absurd. Places like Storm King

and Manitoga have a leg up, in part because they themselves are environmental art – from go. Manitoga is the “estate name” for the wonderful, secluded Russel Wright Design Center. It was the proof-of-concept home of the important 20th-century industrial designer, a man all about the integration of functional art into the living spaces and environments of Everymen, like me. Wright’s simple credo was “good design is for everyone.” The philosophy was no different, really, from the failed mission that drove William Morris and the English Arts and Crafts movement in the Victorian Age, of which our own Byrdcliffe and Maverick were New World extensions. But Wright was working with the Industrial Age and not against it. Wrote Diane Pilgrim, “Every newlywed couple from the late 1930s through the ‘50s knew his name, stamped on the bottom of their new china, along with all the other useful and handsome objects that made them proud to be Americans.” Manitoga is both a modest home and a spectacular one, set on cliffs around a deep quarry pool and acting all, like, “What? I’m just here, like the trees and rocks.” It is also a museum and a magical venue that has become a focal point for the disproportionately high concentration of avant-garde artists in all media currently residing in the Beacon/Cold Spring/ Garrison area, along the east banks of the Hudson. Manitoga’s annual fall conceptual musical performance comes this year from the experimental composer and electro-flautist Suzanne Thorpe. Thorpe is well-known locally both as a stalwart of the late Pauline Oliveros’ Deep Listening community and as a founding member of the internationally famous space-rockers Mercury Rev, who have called the Hudson Valley home for decades. She is currently a PhD candidate in Music/Integrative Studies at the University of California at San Diego, and co-director of Techne, an organization that introduces young female-identified women to technologyfocused artmaking, improvisation and contemplative practices. Thorpe’s piece is called Resemblance and Resonance. Thorpe writes, “Much of my attention these days is focused on musical expressions of human positioning in relationship to our environment. Questions arise, such as: Do we situate ourselves as dominant, separate or singular in relationship to nature? Or do we locate ourselves as part of a milieu, entangled and flowing?” Featuring recorders, electronics, trees, insects, birds, animals, water, wind, granite and audience involvement, Resonance and Resemblance will begin with a sound walk, followed by a listening meditation around the Quarry Pool, where four recorder-players on boats will weave their sound into the soundscape and activate its resonant features. Suzanne Thorpe’s Resemblance and Resonance will be performed at

Ani DiFranco to play the Bardavon

A

s influential for her funk- and punk- (and NOLA and Afro- and…) inflected take on singer/songwriter acoustic rock as for her rigorous self-determination and relentlessly energized activism, walking the talk where so many others are content merely to talk it, Ani DiFranco is simply important. She’s a lightning rod for polarized opinion as well, but that just comes with her territory. Artists as well-known for their extramusical work as for their music are prone to having their art overlooked, and that’s unfortunate, for DiFranco has remained a vital, productive and stylistically restless writer throughout most of a career that is now approaching the end of its third decade. DiFranco’s latest release Binary (released on her own Righteous Babe label) is a lively effort: street-tough as ever, rhythmically happening in ways that are current and global. Her guitar playing, always excellent, has grown new dimensions. And her spiel remains, as ever, vibrant, funny, smart and combative.

school of Abstract Impressionism, Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011) valued immediacy in her art. “A really good picture looks as if it’s happened at once,” she told her biographer, Barbara Rose. “One really beautiful wrist motion that is synchronized with your head and heart, and you have it.” Frankenthaler turned the New York art scene on its head in 1952 with an unusually delicate nonrepresentational painting titled Mountains and Sea, inspired both by the Nova Scotia coastline and by Joan Miró’s experiments with what eventually became known as “soakstain” technique. By diluting oil paint with copious amounts of turpentine and painting directly onto unprimed canvas, Frankenthaler discovered that she could create ethereal images in oil that looked more like watercolor wash. Morris Louis and Kenneth Noland, among others, followed in her footsteps Soak-stain painting made Frankenthaler’s international reputation,

but she soon moved on to other techniques and media. She took up lithography with Tatyana Grosman in the 1960s and woodcuts with Kenneth E. Tyler in the 1970s, seeking to evoke in the more static and labored arts of printmaking the same spontaneous, ephemeral feel that characterized her painting style. The results of these explorations aren’t often viewable gathered in one place; but a Portland, Oregon-based collector named Jordan D. Schnitzer has amassed more than 10,000 art prints, including a fair few of Frankenthaler’s. Now the Jordan Schnitzer Family Foundation has put together a traveling exhibition of more than two dozen of them and taken them on the road. It makes its only stop in the Northeast at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center on the Vassar College campus, opening on October 6, and remaining on view until December 10. “Fluid Expressions: The Prints of Helen Frankenthaler, from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation” includes examples of the artist’s works in lithography, etching, aquatint, screenprinting, pochoir, Mixografia and woodcut, dating from 1968 onward. The Opening Reception gets underway next Friday, October 6 at 6:30 p.m. in the Atrium at the Lehman Loeb, preceded at 5:30 p.m. by a lecture in Taylor Hall 102 by Douglas Dreishpoon, titled “Helen Frankenthaler: Poetic Ambiguity.” A Poughkeepsie native, Dreishpoon is director of the Catalogue Raisonné project at the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation in New York City and chief curator emeritus at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo. Other special events associated with the fall exhibition include a Family Day tour and hands-on printmaking activities for children aged 5 to 10 on from 1:30 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, October 22. The exhibition and all activities are free and open to the public, and all galleries are wheelchair-accessible.

A

friend sent me this question: “What would the You of today tell the ‘pre-Head On, Heart Strong’ You?

Here goes. 1. Not everyone experiences cancer like you will. Knowing one person with cancer only means you know one person with cancer. Make no assumptions about the person in front of you and what their health or life is like. Be mindful. 2. Cancer holds many parallels to your pregnancies: endless reading and research; random, passionate-yet-useless advice from people who know nothing about you; cravings for mint chocolate chip milkshakes; loving cards and gifts; and a constantly changing physical form, including wearing a slamming bikini at the waterpark. 3. Those dreams of walking a labyrinth in your own yard? A moms’ getaway in DR? Meeting the very heroes who inspire you like you’ve never needed before, just to get out of bed after impossibly painful

treatments and procedures? It’s all going to happen. You haven’t yet heard of Hamilton: An American Musical, but trust me, you are in for a ride. 4. You will need so much help, especially when you are restricted from driving. The best ways for you to get the assistance you need is to ask: Create a calendar listing the tasks; request that people give some random dates and times they are available during a given week to help with errands; and let yourself succumb to a good cry after doing so much begging – I mean asking (and eat your feelings, perhaps in the form of a mint chocolate chip milkshake). Repeat after me: Receiving the help is also a gift to the giver. 5. Picking up a tennis racquet again Please join us for a

will feel so good. However, that stupid stubborn backhand will be right there where you left off after 16 years. 6. No matter what the world tells you, you did nothing to cause your cancer. It just is. And you will die of it. 7. Despite a few palate changes, you will still despise raisins and celery. 8. Surprisingly, purchasing your burial plot will be one of the most empowering things you ever do. The more end-of-life preparations you make, the freer you will feel as the transition approaches. 9. Your entire family will continue to be loving and supportive. Your friends will still be smarter and funnier than you. Casey will somehow find a way to bark even more than before because of all of

Be a trailblazer and join the first Flights of Fancy Vintage Aviation Steampunk Day taking place this Saturday, September 30 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. The whole family is encouraged to dress up for the costume contest, enjoy a Victorian picnic with food purchased on-site or bring your own, take in an old-fashioned air show, delight in traveling minstrels and cheer or jeer during tea dueling. Tea dueling? I’d never heard of it either! It’s basically a sassy competition between two competitors who briefly dunk a biscuit into hot black tea and trash-talk each other until they choose to eat it before it breaks, the winner being the last one to ingest, or “nom,” the intact cookie. In addition to the plane museums, I highly recommend my favorite part of the Aerodrome, the biplane ride!

with the solution that nobody else has.” He’s talking about a spray-on product that his wife, a 25-year senior consultant in the beauty industry, formulated to protect their son. Good-Buy Bugs contains no DEET, fragrance, dyes, phthalates, parabens, pesticides, alcohol, formaldehyde preservatives or petrochemicals. “The federal government recognizes three products that kill ticks; one is DEET,” John says. “One is permethrin, and one is cedar tree oil. The first two can cause neurological side effects in humans, and cedar tree oil does not. We’ve sprayed our son 4,000 times over the past two years with this, and he has baby-perfect skin. He’s had no ticks in two years. It’s effective.” “We wanted to save our child from getting Lyme disease," he says. "My wife worked on the formula by herself.

we’re in 60 stores that are selling out. This product is taking off. We had no intention of doing this, but it’s taken on a life of its own and we’re going with it. We’re never gonna be profitable.

Learn about George Henry Sharpe this Wednesday in New Paltz The New Paltz Historical Society will present “Ulster County’s Forgotten Civil War Hero, George Henry Sharpe” with guest speaker Paul T. O’Neill. The lecture will be held on Wednesday, October 4 at 7 p.m. in the New Paltz Community Center at 3 Veterans’ Drive in New Paltz. George H. Sharpe was a Civil War spy, confidante to generals and the president and the man who brought down Tammany Hall. His intelligence during the summer of 1863 ultimately led to the Battle of Gettysburg and helped to seal the fate of Robert E. Lee’s Confederate Army. Residing in Kingston, Sharpe wore many hats during his lifetime, from colonel in Ulster County’s 120th New York Infantry to founder of our modern military intelligence system. He was America’s first CIA agent and the US marshal who tackled the Boss Tweed Ring. Guest speaker Paul O’Neill grew up in New Paltz, and is now commissioner of jurors for Ulster County. The event is free of charge to attend and open to all.

ow do such obtuse characters pull off fun, singalong-able songs? That’s the magic of Morgan Taylor, the artist and musician behind the delightful Gustafer Yellowgold series. Gustafer is a cartoon creature from the Sun who settles in Minnesota and befriends an eel named Slim, among others, and they sing stories.

We think this sweet girl is about 2-years old. HAPPY is a not so happy 3-year old black female cat. Many cats get depressed and sad being in a shelter, no matter how nice the shelter is and Happy is one of those cats.
