Emerging science has established the importance of the human microbiome to health, and some are now warning that its potential destruction is leading to a large-scale health crisis.
Threat to a vital organ Experts meet to discuss the Microbiome at Bard’s public Hannah Arendt Center symposium
W
hen functioning properly, the human microbiome – trillions of microorganisms on our skin and in our gut that work with our immune system to serve as a filter between ourselves and our environment – acts as a vital organ protecting human health. When the overuse of antibiotics, declining air, water and soil quality and modern industrial farming practices negatively impact the human microbiome, chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma, obesity, Alzheimer’s, arthritis and such autoimmune diseases as lupus, type 1 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis are often the result. Emerging science has established the importance of the human microbiome to health, and some are now warning that its potential destruction is leading to a large-scale health crisis. Research is already showing that missing microbes
from Caesarean births, massive overuse of antibiotics in food and medicine, hormones produced by stress and processed foods and chemicals in our environment are impacting our internal ecosystems in ways we are just beginning to understand. We are altering the human microbiome in ways that have potentially radical consequences for our world. On Thursday and Friday, September 19 and 20, the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities at Bard College will hold a symposium of leading scientists, medical practitioners, farming experts and philosophers to explore further what the decline of the human microbiome could mean to global health and how we should respond. The two-day symposium, “Reimagining Human Health: The Microbiome, Farming and Medicine,” takes place at Blithewood, the research and conference facility of the Levy Economics Institute of Bard College. Participants will
discuss soil, water, livestock, antibiotics, farming and the microbiome, including such topics as human health and the microbiome, antibiotics throughout the food system, biofarming and antibiotic stewardship in the treatment of livestock. Symposium participants include: Rodney Dietert, professor emeritus, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Cornell University, author, The Human Superorganism: How the Microbiome Is Revolutionizing the Pursuit of a Healthy Life; Martha Carlin, CEO and cofounder of The BioCollective; Don Huber, professor emeritus of plant pathology at Purdue University and a leading critic of glyphosate pesticides like Roundup; Dr. Laura H. Kahn, physician and research scholar with the Program on Science and Global Security at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University; Dr. Louis J. Cohen, assistant professor and
practicing gastroenterologist, Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai; and Larry Weiss, CEO and founder of Persona Biome, a San Francisco skin microbiome company, and founding chief medical officer, AOBiome. The symposium is free and open to the public, but registration is required at https://bit.ly/2lEWyzu. You can also register to access a live webcast of the conference that will be streamed for those who cannot attend.

Dzieci Theater Co. to perform sitespecific Makbet at Widow Jane Mine
B
ased in Brooklyn, the Dzieci Theater Company characterizes itself as “an international experimental theater ensemble‌dedicated to a search for the ‘sacred’ through the medium of theater.â€? Part of the troupe’s approach to theater-as-ritual is a fondness for developing site-specific staging for the plays in its repertoire. Wherever it’s staged, Dzieci’s Makbet crosses conventional gender boundaries in its casting. It also incorporates Eastern European folk music and chants, with their often-otherworldly harmonics, into the performances. When preparing for their second annual performance of Makbet at Opus 40, founder Matt Mitler said, “Dzieci has presented our Gypsy-infused take on Macbeth in countless alternative spaces, from cemeteries to shipping containers, but no location has had the sweep and monumental impact that Opus 40 does.â€? Once you’ve had Harvey Fite’s bluestone labyrinth for your stage, how in the world are you going to top that for a setting? Well, how about a cave with such wonderfully eerie acoustics that Pauline Oliveros herself couldn’t resist recording there? The Dzieci Theater Company will perform Makbet on Saturday, September 14 at 3 p.m. in the Widow Jane Mine, located on the Snyder Estate at 668 Route 213 in Rosendale. Arrive at 2 p.m. for an opening “ceremonyâ€? in which a riotous clan from the “Old Countryâ€? will greet you outside with song, dance and divination, then lead you through the shaft, between the gargantuan stone pillars and around the subterranean pools, in a wild whirlwind of witchcraft, omens, passion and vaulting ambition. Bring a folding chair and dress for cool, damp, drippy weather. Tickets cost $20 general admission, $15 for Century House Historical Society members, free for children under 12. To reserve via PayPal, visit www.centuryhouse.org/dzieci-makbet-2019.

ver go to an event at the Ulster County Fairgrounds and wonder how people can focus on the activities on offer while the gorgeous, profoundly distracting panorama of the Shawangunk cliffs beckons not far off to the west? Well, this year the Taste of New Paltz celebration, coming up on September 15, will capitalize on its stunning setting by offering opportunities to take a ride in a helicopter above the Ridge. This isn’t the only new feature of the 29th annual Taste: There will also be an assembly of antique and vintage cars at the site. Coming back for the second year is the “Best of the Taste” competition, in which attendees get to vote for their favorite “taste” in each of three categories: Restaurant, Food Truck and Winery/Distillery. From free activities for kids to craft beer, there is something at the Taste of New Paltz for everybody to enjoy, besides great food. Craft vendors, demos and health and wellness practitioners will tout their wares and services, and some of the best local bands will be performing live, including Yard Sale, Soul City, Blue Plate Special and the rising 14-year-old singer Laila Mach. Taste of New Paltz 2019 runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, September 15. Entry tickets for age 13 and up cost $3 in advance and $5 at the gate for this annual fundraiser for the New Paltz Regional Chamber of Commerce.

Basilica SoundScape in Hudson

asilica SoundScape is an annual festival loaded with experimental art, literature, music and film. Held in the cavernous and heightened spaces of Basilica Hudson’s reclaimed waterfront factory, SoundScape has earned its stripes year after year as one of the least compromising festivals dedicated to the new thought and different art. New for 2019, Basilica SoundScape will host the Poet Trolley, a bill of innovative poets and writers who will perform their work in the unusual setting of a vintage Hudson trolley car. The Poet Trolley is curated by author Jenn Pelly, who returns to Basilica SoundScape for her third year in the role of guest curator. Friday’s bill of poets features the likes of writer, arts organizer and zinemaker Megan Manowitz; writer, bookseller and musician Dave Morse; and Peter BD. Basilica SoundScape turns over its Back Gallery programming to writer and musician Meredith Graves, who will host a bill presented by Kickstarter Music and featuring visual art, live music, film, discussion, zines, deejays and more. The highlights include a panel examining the work, influence and legacy of the late Icelandic composer Johann Johannsson, who would have turned 50 on September 19. The Basilica SoundScape Back Gallery lineup will also boast the US premiere of the music documentary I’ll Be Gone, in which two American filmmakers reframe the legacy of Broder Daniel, Sweden’s most divisive rock band – ten years after its tragic end. The screening will be followed by a question-and-answer session with director Amelia Trask and producer Sasha Hecht. The Back Gallery will feature live performances by Brooks Ginnan and Roger Miller of Mission of Burma’s Trinary System, plus genre-spanning deejay sets from Brooklyn band Sannhet’s NO DAWN project, alongside Endash and Pictureplane. The bill will also feature Kickstarter’s Let’s Swap! zine library and creative workshop and haircuts by Bree Ritter/Goodbye Horsegirl. For a full description of this almost incomprehensibly eventful and arty festival, visit the website to get your bearings. Ticket prices begin at $80.

Although the band’s most identifiable voice, Bob “the Bear” Hite, passed away in 1981, and cofounder Alan Wilson died more than a decade earlier, Canned Heat has remained a touring and recording concern for all these years, anchored by the original rhythm section of Adolfo
“Fito” de la Parra and the respected bassist Larry “the Mole” Taylor, who passed away in August of 2019. Still Canned Heat revels in their eccentric, boogie-rich take on the blues.

N
o stranger to super-stacked music festivals, MASS MoCA presents Freshgrass, a modern take on the bluegrass festival, on the weekend of September 20 at its North Adams, Massachusetts location. This is a lineup heavy on Millennial superstars: the Southwestern-flavored mythmakers Calexico performing with early-2000s author of the “new quiet,” Iron and Wine; the great progressive folk songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird (no doubt in his more traditional folk mode); legendary vocalist Mavis Staples; Malian desert blues innovators Tinariwen and many more. This lineup is a literal field of dreams for the well-educated indie-folk fan of the early 2000s. All that star power is augmented with more than a few nods to the progressive newgrass tradition that got a lot of balls rolling, such as Darrel Anger and Mike Marshall, Tony Trischka and Bruce Molsky. Plus, it all takes place on the site of one of the biggest and bestcurated modern art museums in the country. For a full list of stages, performers and attractions, visit the website.

Pollution in the 800-square-mile Wallkill watershed – recently classified as an “impaired water body” by the Department of Environmental Conservation – remains a concern since the peak algal blooms of 2015-16 (pictured above). The main culprit behind the algal blooms is elevated levels of phosphorus from soil runoff, aging sewage plants and home septic systems. Increased public awareness moves the Wallkill, like the Hudson, closer to the day when it becomes swimmable again.

Betty and the Baby Boomers will supply spirited live music at the park from 12:30 to 3 p.m., and there will be a food truck onsite. Attendees will learn more about the work of the Wallkill River Watershed Alliance and best practices for caring for the watershed. Paddlers may wish to volunteer for the Alliance’s “boat brigade,” which organizes public paddles to monitor the river’s health by visual inspection and by collecting water samples. Paddlers can drop off their boats between 9 and 10 a.m., then park offsite. New Paltz Climate Action Coalition volunteers will shuttle race participants to municipal parking lots in electric cars before and after the race. Boats should be in the water by 10 to have everyone ready for an 11 a.m. race start. Competitors also need to preregister at www.wallkillalliance.org/race. There’s a $25 fee per entrant, which supports Wallkill River Watershed Alliance’s monitoring, education and cleanup efforts. Supporters who won’t be paddling on that day have donated enough funds to sponsor six race participants for whom the $25 fee would constitute a hardship. New Paltz Kayaking is offering a special deeply discounted rate of $10 to rent a kayak for the day, for those who don’t have their own boats. Visit https:// npkayaking.com to reserve your craft.

Shadowland presents East Coast premiere of Jeff Daniels’ Flint Whether you know him as the Emmy-winning star of The Newsroom, one of the two title characters in the Dumb and Dumber movie franchise or the latest incarnation of Atticus Finch in the current hit Broadway production of To Kill a Mockingbird, there’s no denying that Jeff Daniels is a versatile and talented actor. What fewer people know about him is the fact that he’s also a gifted playwright – as well as prolific, already having written a dozen dramas for the Purple Rose Theatre Company that he founded in his childhood hometown of

Chelsea, Michigan. (The troupe gets its name from the 1985 Woody Allen movie that gave Daniels his first-ever starring role on the big screen, The Purple Rose of Cairo.) Ten years ago, Ellenville’s Shadowland Stages staged a production of one of Daniels’ earlier plays, Guest Artist, starring John Astin. Now Shadowland is about to become only the second theatrical venue in the country to stage Daniels’ latest play, Flint, which had its world premiere at the Purple Rose in 2018. It opens on Friday, September 13, and runs through September 29. Word has it that Daniels was working on a comedy, but set it aside for something
more serious and topical after a conversation with gadfly documentarian and fellow Michigander Michael Moore. The result is a searing drama about two couples in Flint, Michigan – one black, one white – whose lives have been upended by the closure of the local automobile plant where both men had worked. The action occurs in 2014, just as the scandal of the as-yet-unresolved Flint water crisis is about to break. Drinking the poisoned tapwater are characters portrayed by Brendan Burke, LeeAnne Hutchison, Brandon Rubin and Jammie Patton, under the direction of James Glossman, whose voluminous previous work at Shadowland has included the abovementioned Guest
Artist and last year’s US premiere of John Cleese’s Bang Bang! See the American Dream unravel Thursdays through Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Tickets for Flint cost $31 for previews, $39 for evening performances and $34 for matinées.

NIGHT SKY
Secrets of this weekend’s Full Moon
T
his Friday night brings the most famous Full Moon of the year: the Harvest Moon. (You’ll see it listed in many almanacs as Saturday because the moment of Full Moon is just after midnight in the Eastern Time zone, and in Greenwich Time. But forget that. It’s happening Friday night, not Saturday night.) It’s a great time to learn fascinating, little-known facts about that sole sky-object that appears absolutely, perfectly circular. The Moon is out-of-round by just one part in 500, which is utterly unnoticeable. (The Sun looks round, too, but is rarely safe to look at.) On just one day out of 30 does the Moon reach its Full phase – hardly the dominant motif of the lunar month. But this is the phase most favored by poets and artists. Garnering the lion’s share of lore and myth, it is endowed with supposed powers and abilities never attributed to any other phase. A “full” appearance, of course, only tells us that sunlight then shines straight down on the lunar surface from our perspective – that our planet must be neatly positioned between Moon and Sun. If we sat exactly in the midpoint, the Moon would lie in our shadow and be eclipsed, which will next be visible from the US in May of 2021. But most months, the lunar orbit’s five-degree slant makes the Moon pass a bit above or below the precise antisolar location. Still, the Full Moon always floats close enough to that opposite-the-Sun location to exhibit several logical consequences. It thus makes sense that the Full Moon: rises as the Sun sets sets as the Sun rises is highest when the Sun is lowest (at midnight, or 1 a.m. during Daylight Saving Time) is the only phase never seen in daytime is the only phase that is out all night long is the only possible phase that can be eclipsed.
On average, the Moon’s terrain reflects just eight to 13 percent of incoming sunlight, which matches the darkness of asphalt.
By the light of the Full Moon The Moon is one of only four celestial objects that can cast shadows on Earth (the other three being the Sun, Venus and the rare fireball meteor). Still, the Moon is not a good reflector of light. In fact, it’s awful. On average, its terrain reflects just eight to 13 percent of incoming sunlight, which matches the darkness of asphalt. By comparison, Earth reflects 35 percent of the sunlight hitting us, while shiny Venus reflects 76 percent. If a Moon-sized Venus sat at the Moon’s distance from us, it would appear seven times more brilliant than the Full Moon: enough to give us a blue sky at night. Very few objects in the known universe are duller than the Moon, which looks bright only because it stands against the even-darker background sky. But it would become no blacker if some ambitious real estate developer paved its entire surface with asphalt and turned it into an enormous parking lot. Still, the Full Moon dominates the night with a brilliance that is surprisingly difficult to pin down subjectively. Since no direct comparisons are ever possible, it’s no wonder that a survey showed people almost always incorrectly guess sunlight to be between 50 and 200 times brighter than full moonlight. This is understandable because a moonlit beach or snowy countryside can seem positively brilliant – bright enough to read by. Yet the truth is that the Sun is 450,000 times more luminous than the Full Moon.

September 14. Through the combined efforts of the Maritime Museum, the Trolley Museum of New York, the Volunteer Firemen’s Hall and Museum of Kingston, historic fireboat John J. Harvey and area fire, police and rescue departments, Heroes’ Day highlights the courage, selflessness and sacrifice of emergency service personnel. The museum will feature deck tours of the fireboat John J. Harvey; (shown above) on September 11, 2001, she pumped water from the Hudson River to the disaster area for 80 consecutive hours after the Twin Towers fell. The Trolley Museum of New York will showcase its Port Authority Trans Hudson PA-1 car 143, which was salvaged, intact, from the rubble of the Twin Towers after the 9/11 attack. In addition to deck and trolley tours, kids and families can participate in fire safety training drills using the Kingston Fire Department’s Fire Safety Trailer.

Sizing it up Measuring the apparent size of the Full Moon produces another surprise: Its disk is far smaller than commonly remembered. Asked to put a value on the Moon’s dimensions, most people guess that a line of 30 to 50 Full Moons stacked like zeroes would stretch from the horizon to the zenith straight overhead. The true figure? It would take 180 Moons to fill that span. To pack the sky completely, 105,050 Moons would be needed to fill every space. Moon weather The air nearest to the ground experiences a worldwide monthly warming of about 0.04 (four 100ths) of a degree Fahrenheit during the period from five to eight days after the Full Moon. This tiny monthly temperature rise is still not understood, but may be caused by the Moon’s hot daytime surface throwing infrared heat our way like a bathroom heater. In addition, there is a statistically greater probability of cloudiness, storminess and rainfall around the Full Moon than would be expected by chance. This effect, too, has not been fully explained. Touring the Zodiac The average Full Moon interval of 29.5 days, known as the synodic month, typically delivers 13 Full Moons each year. There are also 13 constellations that the Moon routinely occupies, including the “forgotten” zodiacal pattern of Ophiuchus the Serpent-Bearer and a few others, too. On Friday night the Full Moon starts out in Pisces, but crosses over into Cetus the Whale in the wee hours before dawn. The far side The Full Moon always displays the same features. Even the most ancient cultures noticed this strange and unique property: that the same face is always aimed in our direction. There is no other body in the universe that forever shows us just one of its sides. So there exists a lunar hemisphere eternally unseen from Earth. Until October 4, 1959, when the first Russian spacecraft flew around to the back side and transmitted its images, all we could do was guess how it would appear. Virtually everyone assumed the far hemisphere would look a lot like the one we see. As usual, we were wrong. The distant hemisphere appears entirely different. On the near side, huge, frozen ancient lava flows are the most conspicuous features visible to the naked eye. The far side almost totally lacks these maria or seas. These are a few of the lunar oddities that may spring to mind when we see Friday’s Harvest Moon. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

New Paltz sailor and seeker Michael Projansky publishes memoir Michael Maruti Projansky’s autobiographical memoir I Don’t Know…I Love (Epigraph Publishing, 2019) might have been restricted to the literary technique of episodic collage by the unique conditions of its writing. A genuine exit project, I Don’t Know…I Love finds the well-known New Paltz patriarch, psychologist, world traveler and spiritual seeker in his own words, “progressively disentangling from being human,” in his late 70s and five years into a struggle with a rare form of ALS that will claim his life – within half a year, by the author’s own estimation at the time of publication.
The debilitating physical effects of the disease required Projansky to dictate much of this memoir to his peer Fred Mayo and to a much younger friend, Zachary Rausch, as well as to call on the expert eye and steady editorial hand of newspaper publisher/executive and friend Jim Ottaway, Jr. Whether it is a desultory and multi-texture book perforce or by design matters little, however. I Don’t Know…I Love works exquisitely well as a richly woven, shapeshifting narrative, both acute and broadly world-embracing. It comprises episodes that vary dramatically in scope and level of detail, but the whole is unified by the coherence of Projansky’s simple, feeling, playful language and by the deep philosophical consistency of his “take.” Whether by serendipity or design, the styles and storytelling modes and their allocated content work rather perfectly together. The dictated segments of the book tend toward short, imagistic episodes connected in time and place, but also allowed to stand freely, each with its own koan- or haiku-like resonance. Their themes are implied but seldom called out – that elusive, suggestive “I’ll just leave this here” reportorial style so often favored by poets, journalists and spiritual teachers.

wives, children, parents and hired hands. Projansky observes it vividly through lenses Buddhist and humanist. This span of nearly 40 pages is rich in characterization, studies in the minute offices of love and duty, chilling evocations of place and a welling sense of humility and compassion. The other broad block of content written long ago is a kind of sailor’s diary, chronicling Projansky’s years spent in somewhat exotic global sailing adventures, crisply described with, as always, an eye for both character and spiritual resonance. Also present in the sailing section is a sense of bildungsroman: Projansky’s own delayed-onset, middle-aged schooling at the hands of the big wide world and its dangers. Both the Hospice and Sailing sections (III and IV) lend themselves to freestanding publication. Projansky is adamant that this is not a book of spiritual teachings or encoded lessons, but rather a collection of life stories told by a person with a spiritual bias. In fact, his very thesis, encapsulated in the title, discourages any kind of didactic design. On numerous occasions in these pages, Projansky rues the years he spent caught up in cleverness, self-doubt and the pursuit of status and material/ intellectual achievement. His life’s progress is the shedding of that pretense and those concerns in favor of an uncritical, openarmed acceptance of being and the call to love. There is no spiritual braggadocio here; he does not claim to have reached that pinnacle except in fleeting glimpses and, recently, via the divestments of age. The book is overwhelmingly positive and accepting. It presupposes no mountaintop wisdom, but possesses a good crop of it just the same. It is a work of value, obviously, to the community that has known the man; but beyond that, it stands as a lively contribution to the history of Eastern spirituality in America and as a work of genuinely warm literary value in this, the age of memoir and oral history.

Slabsides in West Park is the name of the cabin that John Burroughs built in 1895. It was in this building that Burroughs (shown above) wrote some of the essays that made him America’s foremost nature writer of his time, as well as entertaining such callers as Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, Thomas Edison, Walt Whitman and Henry Ford, up until his death in 1921. Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1968, Slabsides is preserved today much as Burroughs left it.

Most of these evocative micro-stories concern Projansky’s experience traveling and seeking in India or consorting in America with his friend Ram Dass and other well-known teachers and thinkers. It reads a bit like a chatty scrapbook of stories from the heart of the spiritual movement of the period, and a bit like a complex expose of values, philosophies and habits of mind encoded in a series of evocative snapshots. The center of the book is given to two blocks of stout, serious memoir that Projansky had completed earlier in life: two meaty chapters that constitute the bulk of the book’s literary claim. First comes what is perhaps the most fully realized and
emotionally compelling storytelling in the book: Projansky’s accounts of a series of hospice visits that he made in New York City, accompanying Dr. Fred Schwartz on some visits and Bonnie Weissberg, MSN, on others. Not surprisingly, the section of the memoir that has the least to do with Projansky himself is the one in which his values and his nature are most clearly distilled and substantiated in action. With his two professional guides, he visits all manner of socioeconomic settings in the City, finding everywhere acts of extraordinary love and service committed by the caretakers of the dying – their

“Woodstock Collects” Five-venue exhibition opens Saturday
A
townwide reception on Saturday, September 14 will launch “Woodstock Collects,” a first-time collaboration among five not-for-profit arts organizations: the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild, the Woodstock Artists Association & Museum, the Historical Society of Woodstock, the Woodstock School of Art and the Center for Photography at Woodstock. Sourced entirely from local private collections, the works in this joint exhibition have rarely been seen in public spaces. Each of the five participating organizations uses a different curatorial approach, telling a story that illuminates that organization’s history. On view through October 20, Center for Photography at Woodstock’s exhibition, curated by Hannah Frieser, features the experimental photographs of Konrad Cramer, Manuel Komroff and Nathan Resnick, focusing on their changes from Pictorialism to abstraction. Deborah Heppner, curator of the show at the Historical Society of Woodstock, on view through October 27, invited board members to submit works of personal or historical significance, along with written narratives of how the artworks came into their possession. The Woodstock Artists Association & Museum’s contribution, titled “An Artistic Legacy: 1+1+1,” curated by Janice La Motta and running through December 29, presents three-tiered groupings, each consisting of a work by a historic Woodstock artist from WAAM’s permanent collection, the work of one of the artist’s descendants and the work of a contemporary artist selected by the descendant. The Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild’s “Legacy of the Arts: Friends, Families, Lovers,” runs through October 13. Curated by Tina Bromberg, Abigail Sturges and Sylvia Leonard Wolf, it celebrates artists from every stage of the Guild’s history, from Ralph and Jane Whitehead’s Arts and Crafts utopia to the formation of the Woodstock Guild of Craftsmen in 1939 to the merger between the Guild and the Byrdcliffe Art Colony in 1976 and the addition of the Kleinert/James Center for the Arts in 1996. Jenne M. Currie curated the exhibition “The Art Students League in Woodstock 1947-79,” on view through October 12, for Woodstock School of Art. It examines the vital role that instructors at the Art Students League (housed until 1979 at what is today WSA’s campus) and their peers in the artistic community have played in the town’s rich cultural history. While each venue’s exhibition has its own personality, the sum of the five shows reveals the mutual sustainability of the arts in Woodstock, held together by a community of artists, collectors, cultural leaders and donors. Public receptions will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. on September 14 at the Center for Photography at Woodstock, the Historical Society of Woodstock, the Woodstock Artists Association and Museum and the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild. The day ends with a celebration at the Woodstock School of Art from 5 to 7 p.m. Admission is free.

Kahn & Selesnick photo exhibit opens at Opus 40 on Saturday
The Gallery at Opus 40 in Saugerties features new work from Hudson Valley artists Kahn & Selesnick from September 12 through October 20, with an opening reception on September 14. The collaborative team of Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick focuses on fictitious histories – past and future – using photography and installation art. These include documentary-style panoramic and square photographs that combine absurdist fantasy and bogus anthropology as well as elaborately crafted artifact, costumes and sculpture, often constructed of unlikely materials such as bread or fur. Their current work features the recreation of the Truppe Fledermaus’ Memory Theatre of 1932 with its full complement of Batfolk, Greenmen, Rope-Slingers and DeathDancers.

t was Winston Churchill who, in a 1946 speech at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, coined the term “Iron Curtain” to characterize the growing divide between the capitalist and communist wings of the World War II Allies. Churchill’s granddaughter, the noted artist Edwina Sandys, MBE, has called the Berlin Wall “the physical embodiment of the Iron Curtain.” After the Wall was dismantled in 1989, the reunited German government gave Sandys her pick of eight of its concrete panels to use as a medium for her art. The result was a sculpture titled Breakthrough, which retains the Wall’s original graffiti but is penetrated by voids in the form of two human silhouettes, one male and one female. Breakthrough was installed on the Westminster College campus by then-president Ronald Reagan in 1990, and in 1992, Mikhail Gorbachev, the Soviet leader whose reforms enabled the reunification of Germany, visited the site and became one of many who have embraced the symbolism of walking right through the remains of the once-daunting Wall. But what became of those two cutouts? Sandys preserved them, and in 1994 they were installed as a separate sculpture in an area called the Freedom Court on the grounds of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum in Hyde Park. Now titled BreakFree, the 12-foot-tall concrete figures emerge from a tangle of oversized barbed wire. In 2007, Sandys also commissioned a bronze head of her grandfather by Oscar Nemon to join the bust of FDR in the Freedom Court. On Saturday, September 21, looking forward to the 30th anniversary this November of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Sandys returns to Hyde Park to give a talk on BreakFree and her historic family legacy. Attendees will gather at 4 p.m. in the lobby of the Henry A. Wallace Visitor Center and walk to the sculpture site. Your $10 admission fee enables you to visit the FDR Library and Museum from 9 a.m. on, so you can make a day of it, learning about the important working relationship between Roosevelt and Churchill during World War II.

UFO talk with Linda Zimmermann on Sunday in Rhinebeck Among its many other distinctions and claims to historical significance, the mid-Hudson, it seems, can be fairly characterized as one of the most active and important hot spots of alleged UFO activity in the world, with sightings dating back over a century. Linda Zimmermann, a research scientist-turned-author, will appear at the Starr Library in Rhinebeck on Sunday, September 15 at 4:30 p.m. to share her research on the subject. Zimmermann starred in the documentary In the Night Sky: I Recall a UFO, based on her research into sightings in the Hudson Valley. The film won the 2013 People’s Choice Award at the EBE Film Festival at the International UFO Congress. Admission to this program is free.

refurbishing this large cemetery at the intersection of Route 94 and Union Avenue, and its beautifully carved monuments have many stories to share. Opened in 1870 with the initiative and investment of Newburgh mayor George Clark and a group of colleagues, Woodlawn is a fine example of the 19th century’s movement to establish landscaped rural cemeteries. Its winding lanes and deliberate plantings gave comfort in an age when cemetery visitation was a weekly ritual for many families. On Sunday afternoon, September 15 at 2 p.m., historians Glenn Marshall and Mary McTamaney will lead visitors around Woodlawn and share the stories of dozens of interesting people who came to rest in this beautiful place. The walking tour is sponsored by the Historical Society of Newburgh Bay and the Highlands. Call (845) 561-2585 in case of inclement weather. The tour is free for Newburgh Historical Society members, and a donation of 5$ is suggested for the general public. Please visit www.newburghhistoricalsociety. com for more information. Woodlawn Cemetery is located at 93 Union Avenue in New Windsor.

Rail Explorers offer pedal-powered Catskills tours through November 3
A
s foliage season draws nigh, consider a gently paced ride through the Catskills via Rail Explorers: The Catskills Division. This new modality for hands-free touring via custom-built pedal-powered rail bikes along the historic Ulster & Delaware Railroad tracks winds up its 2019 season on November 3. Embarking four times daily, Thursdays through Mondays from the historic Phoenicia Railway Station, the Rail Explorers tours travel eight miles along the spectacular Esopus Creek and through the beautiful woods of the Catskill Mountains. Rail Explorers vehicles come in two-seater and four-seater models, each equipped with four steel wheels, hydraulic disc brakes and pedals for each seat. Riders (except for toddlers) have to pedal, but don’t have to steer because you’re following the rails. So, you can snap photos or shoot videos to your heart’s content. All the Rail Explorers leave at the same time, with a tour guide in the lead and another in the last vehicle. Each vehicle must have at least one rider aged 16 and up to operate the brakes. The group spreads out along the track, so that there is up to 500 feet between you and the Explorers ahead and behind. This allows each group to enjoy the freedom of the outdoors and the magic of the railroad at their own pace and in their own space. There’s no passing, obviously. The tours are timed so that all Explorers have reached the destination before they are turned around for the next tour. There’s a picnic spot at the creekside turnaround where you can hang out during the change of direction. Since the return trip is slightly uphill, the Explorers feature optional electric motor assistance for less vigorous pedalers. Allow two hours for the full round-trip tour. Rail Explorers operate rain or shine, provided it is safe to do so. The tours run in light-to-moderately-inclement weather, but will not run in heavy rain that is unlikely to stop, or if threatening weather appears imminent. A decision to cancel a tour because of a thunderstorm is typically only made 30 minutes before departure. Umbrellas are provided on every Rail Explorer and ponchos are available. Each vehicle has a basket for bags and backpacks, cameras, phones or water bottles. Many tours sell out quickly, particularly on weekends, so booking ahead is strongly recommended. Tickets cost $85 for a Tandem and $150 for a Quad. There is also a special Beer & Pretzels Tour on Fridays at 4:30 p.m. in autumn, featuring special edition beer from Woodstock Brewing and soft organic pretzels by Bread Alone. That price is $95 for a Tandem and $160 for a Quad. Parking at the Rail Explorers depot at 70 Lower High Street in Phoenicia is free. To reserve your tour, visit www. railexplorers.net/tours/catskills-ny.

WHY NEWSPAPERS? Print is dead, right? Wrong. Studies show readers retain more of what they read in print because it’s easier to focus. Fewer distractions. The web is great for breaking news bytes, but our in-depth stories are best consumed in print. We only write local stories, so every issue is bound to contain something you didn’t know about your community. You lose that sense of discovery on the web, where you’re less likely to happen on something you weren’t looking for. And while our website is too primitive for such things, many sites collect browsing data for advertising. Our ads would never be so presumptious. We print on recycled paper when possible, so it’s sustainable—and accessible to those without the Internet or iPads; not to be overlooked in a Democracy.
