CHECK IT OUT Art auction for Stone Ridge Library this Saturday Anyone driving down Route 209 through Stone Ridge over the last two years must have noticed all that has been going on at the Stone Ridge Library. First there were the great wooden buttresses holding up those old stone walls; then the giant thermometer showing progress on what seemed to be one of the region’s most ambitious fundraising projects. Then came the hosannas and the visible progress made. Those old walls now look fresh, permanent. The old home that houses much of the great little library’s collection is now getting its own facelift. And as a result, the entire Stone Ridge/Marbletown community’s feeling revived, open-armed, ready for new challenges. This Saturday, May 17, the library holds yet another of its innovative, communitycentering fundraisers. This time it’s a silent auction of local artists’ works – which should be a treat, given the host of great artists living in and around the area and using this library with great fondness. Artwork was streaming in all week for the afternoon event at the Marbletown Community Center this Saturday afternoon. Combined with an active series of readings and musical events, one of the great book sales in the region, fairs and many smaller high teas and the like, one can always expect a crowd at these things in Marbletown, along with a heady group of folks drawn out by their love of the library – and of Marbletown and the entire 209 corridor. And talk about a worthy cause! – Paul Smart

Pauline Oliveros
The installation, which includes a performance by Oliveros playing her trademark digital accordion on May 25, uses the space of a major New York City museum for the composer’s groundbreaking experiments in sonic awareness. Asked her reaction to the invitation to participate in the prestigious Biennial, one of the art world’s highest-profile exhibitions of contemporary art, she replied, “I was astonished. Everybody is very impressed with the Biennial, and
The Big Takeover
I’m just doing my thing. It’s giving me an opportunity to be a sound artist, which now has cachet, with everybody jumping on the bandwagon of sound art.” Born in Texas in 1932, Oliveros was a musical pioneer, part of a group of San Francisco-based composers experimenting with the recording and playback of sounds from found instruments on magnetic tape in the early 1960s. From those early experiments she developed her Expanded Instrument System (EIS), which she describes as “a way of processing acoustic or electronic sounds by recording them and delaying them and modifying them
on the fly”; with the advent of computer programming, it has morphed into performance software. At the Whitney, Oliveros will set up a tetra-microphone in the lobby, its four capsules picking up sounds from four different directions. Doors shutting and closing, sirens on the street, the murmur of conversation, recorded announcements, a musical installation in the lobby and other ambient sounds will be recorded by the four capsules and sent on separate tracks into the EIS software, which will modify, delay, repeat and otherwise alter the recorded sounds. They’ll be played back in the adjoining lobby. The installation, which Oliveros is developing with the help of programmer Jesse Stiles, “creates an immersive environment, which is both weirdly displaced and familiar,” she said. “I’ll be hanging around because I’ll be curious as to how it works.”

The soundscape will be accompanied by moving images projected on the gallery walls in real time from a panoramic video camera mounted on the ceiling of the lobby, which will also be delayed and otherwise processed by the EIS system. Visitors will likely view themselves entering the museum, intrinsically becoming a part of the piece, since “you couldn’t get to my room unless you’d passed through the lobby,� Oliveros said. Over the w e e k e n d , performers from the International Contemporary E n s e m b l e will perform spontaneously throughout the museum. At the closing of the installation on May 25, Oliveros will play her digital accordion, an “electro-acoustic� instrument that creates a delayed sound when she strikes a key, which she then modifies with foot pedals, to the accompaniment of the EIS playback, improvising on the spot. Oliveros has created music in all kinds of environments, including caves, caverns and giant cisterns; but using the ambient sounds of a museum and pairing the recordings with a parallel video image is completely new, she said. The composer has authored five books, received numerous awards, performed internationally and continues to receive commissions, including in recent years
pieces for the Avatar Orchestra Metaverse, a group of composers and artists who gather pieces for the online computer game Second Life, and the Princeton Laptop Orchestra, a work that involved simulating an experiment in which a bell curve created by a random movement of balls was altered into a more interesting shape by a participant’s concentrated thought. Through the Deep Listening Institute, which she founded with her partner Ione, she has been working to use technology to help people with disabilities, developing a software interface that enables mobilityimpaired kids to create their own music. The EIS installation, timed for the finale of the Biennial, continues her lifelong tireless exploration of experimental music while also representing the summation of a project that began a quarter-of-a-century ago, when the possibilities of the EIS were no more than a dream. – Lynn Woods

No small Feat Bill Payne & Connor Kennedy reprise Little Feat’s debut LP this Saturday at Bearsville; Payne plays The Falcon on Friday
Jeremy Mage, Tamar-kali and Jason Charles Walker
Few bands of any era have been able to marry the feel-good and the cerebral as effectively as did Little Feat, the groovecentric, smart and funky California outfit that made a long string of classic records in the ’70s and hasn’t left the road since. While Feat will always be associated with the smoldering white-soul singing, slide guitar-playing and subtle, idiosyncratic songwriting of the late Lowell George, keyboardist Bill Payne (above in selfportrait) most fully embodies the band’s paradoxical, dual nature. His virtuosic, Dr. John-inspired New Orleans and boogie piano playing lent songs such as “Dixie Chicken� and “Oh Atlanta!� their fire and authenticity; but Payne is also the ardent progressivist in the group – the one who wrote “Day or Night,� “Red

“Freedom Songs� this Saturday at Unison in New Paltz
hree New York City music professionals – singer/songwriters Tamar-kali and Jason Charles Walker and keyboardist/songwriter Jeremy Mage – bring “Freedom Songs� to Unison in New Paltz on Saturday, May 17 at 8 p.m. The program features the iconic and inspirational music associated with the American Civil Rights movement, emphasizing the gospel and folk roots of the songs that both inspired and came to symbolize the Civil Rights struggle. In the interactive, community-building spirit of the music, “Freedom Songs� will be heavy on the audience participation, invoking the call-and-response singing style common to the traditional music of the black church and to interactive protest music. This unique fusion of the timelessness of spirituals and the topicality of political music lends the program its diversebut-coherent texture. Selections include modern classics such as Nina Simone’s “How It Feels to Be Free� and time-specific songs like Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon’s Freedom Riders anthem “Buses Are a-Coming,� as well as hymns and traditional songs that found a new resonance in the context of Civil Rights, such as “Will the Circle Be Unbroken.� All three performers can claim vast experience and fluency in these traditional disciplines, and all are also fully implicated in the popular and serious music of the present. Jason Charles Walker was a featured soloist and ensemble leader of two Robert Wilson and Bernice Johnson Reagon productions, Temptations of Saint Anthony and Zinnias. He is currently on tours with Philip Glass and Robert Wilson’s Einstein on the Beach. Walker was the composer in the Bolton Theatre’s adaptation of George C. Wolfe’s play Spunk. In recent years, he has shared the stage with Mick Jagger, Bono, Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon, Macy Gray, Lou Reed, Angelique Kidjo and Dr. John. A second-generation musician with roots in the coastal islands of the Carolinas, Tamar-kali is an impassioned and politically charged singer/songwriter who claims affinities to both Billie Holliday and Bad Brains. She has released several critically acclaimed collections of songs and has performed alongside contemporary luminaries from Paramore, Fishbone, Cassandra Wilson and John Legend to Jean Grae and the Roots. New Paltz native Jeremy Mage is a Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist, singer/songwriter, producer and composer. He toured globally with Lizz Wright (soul jazz) and Wunmi (Afro-funk), and his new record is out on Tummy Touch. He apprenticed with a range of masters, from Allen Ginsberg, Steve Gorn and Jack Hardy in New York to Fred Frith in Oakland and Srinivasan in Varanasi. Walker, Tamar-kali and Mage most recently worked together in Toshi Reagon’s “Deep Roots of Rock and Roll� with New York City’s Black Rock Coalition. Walker and Mage have also collaborated on “All Alone,� a song featured in the 2014 Cuba Gooding, Jr. film Life of a King. – John Burdick Freedom Songs, Saturday, May 17, 8 p.m., $22/$18 advance, $26/$22 at door, Unison Arts & Learning Center, 68 Mountain Rest Road, New Paltz; (845) 255-1559, www.unisonarts.org.

Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues plays the Bardavon this Saturday
CONCERT
We happy few Singer/songwriter Amy Speace at Phoenicia’s Empire State Railway Museum this Friday
I
f, like me, you cherish abiding nostalgia for the long-gone heyday of the great female singer/ songwriter, you definitely need to acquaint yourself with the work of one of the younger generation of practitioners who’ll be performing in our region this weekend. Her name is Amy Speace, and she wields an impressive set of pipes that have been compared to her forebears Judy Collins (who put out a couple of Speace’s CDs on her own record label) and Lucinda Williams. NPR has described her singing style as “grounded but wounded.” Think of a more technically pristine Karla Bonoff, or a more soulful, dramatically powerful Priscilla Herdman. Her songwriting may remind you a bit of the late Kate Wolf, and Linda RonGINA BINKLEY Amy Speace stadt’s more countryish efforts come close in vocal timbre. But it would be an oversimplification to pigeonhole Speace as a folk or country singer. Her taste and her songwriting style span the genres, and her most recent recording, How to Sleep in a Stormy Boat, is largely fueled by her years as an actor/director/playwright touring with the National Shakespeare Company. Written while she was giving her stressed-out vocal cords a rest after losing her voice for a couple of months, each song takes off from a line or two in one of the Bard’s plays: The title number is inspired by the storm scene in King Lear, for example, and “We Are the Fortunate Ones” puts a fresh spin on Henry V ’s “band of brothers” pep talk before the Battle of Agincourt. Accompanied by Megan Palmer on fiddle and vocals, Speace will play guitar and sing at the Empire State Railway Museum in Phoenicia this Saturday evening, May 17. Though she’s Nashville-based nowadays, she has a personal connection to the area: The songs on her 2009 CD The Killer in Me were composed in a small Catskills cabin that Speace rented while licking her wounds following a romantic breakup. Apparently the emotional trauma didn’t leave too many scars, because this gig is Speace’s second at the renovated 19th century railway-station-turned-intimate-music-venue. Showtime will be at 7:30 p.m. Tickets cost $15 at the door, $13 for the Fortunate Ones who reserve in advance by calling Flying Cat Music at (845) 688-9453 or e-mailing flyingcatmusic@gmail.com. While you await this tasty musical evening, you can check out Speace’s oeuvre at www.amyspeace.com, or hear her being interviewed on All Things Considered about her creative process making How to Sleep in a Stormy Boat at www.npr.org/player/v2/mediaPlayer.html?action=1&t=1&islist= false&id=177988757&m=178300018. – Frances Marion Platt Amy Speace in concert, Friday, May 17, 7:30 p.m., $15/$13, Empire State Railway Museum, 70 Lower High Street, Phoenicia; (845) 688-9453, flyingcatmusic@gmail.com.
In a story that parallels that of the American horn band Blood, Sweat and Tears, British art-rock giants the Moody Blues made their initial splash as a British R & B band under the leadership of Denny Laine, before pursuing a dramatic change in direction with the pop psychedelia on 1967’s Days of Future Passed. It was the singing and songwriting of Justin Hayward, who had joined the group around the time of Laine’s departure, that spearheaded this radical rerouting of the group’s mission. Hayward penned and sang many of the group’s mega-hits, including “Nights in White Satin,” “Your Wildest Dreams,” “Tuesday Afternoon,” “Story in Your Eyes,” “Question,” “I Know You’re out There Somewhere” and “Ride My See-Saw.” On Saturday, May 17 at 8 p.m., Justin Hayward appears at the Bardavon in Poughkeepsie. Tickets for Justin Hayward cost $62 for Gold Circle seating, $52 and $47. They can be purchased at the Bardavon box office at 35 Market Street in Poughkeepsie; the UPAC box office at 601 Broadway in Kingston; or through Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000 or www. ticketmaster.com. – John Burdick

branch of pine needles glued to it,” recalls Kligler, who subsequently found himself crossing paths with Seeger and sharing the stage with him on numerous occasions after moving to Woodstock in 1991. But Kligler says that he really got to know the musician while making the CD Let My People Go in 2005 with the Harrises and the Vanavers, who were Seeger’s close collaborators. Seeger also performed at a benefit concert for the Harrises at the synagogue a few years ago. The May 18 concert will feature Seeger’s own songs, as well as others that he made famous. It will be a mix of children’s song, political songs and anthems, classic ballads and stories by the performers. Children of all ages are welcome. The suggested donation is $15 for synagogue members, $20 for other adults and $8 for children under 16. Light refreshments will be available following the concert.

ers whom the piece’s composer, Daniel Kelly, interviewed in recent years. Think in terms of Studs Terkel and Legs McNeil set to music, Spoon River Anthology or Thornton Wilder (even Paul Simon did it years ago with his Bookends album, based on old folks’ home interviews). Rakonto means “story” in Esperanto. The composer, a pianist who has worked with a number of jazz greats and the hiphop artist Lauryn Hill, was commissioned by the state arts council to create Rakonto. “Whatever the musical context, I want to communicate a story, to have a listener get that we’re going on a journey,” Kelly noted. “For several months, people have been sharing their stories with me… we were talking about the things that mattered to them. Many people said, ‘Let’s talk for five minutes,’ and an hour later they were still philosophizing about life. Involving communities in the process of a composition is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time.” Talk about bringing these mountains that serve as our backdrop to life, along with their stories and what they do to people, year in and year out. – Paul Smart

he Woodstock Jewish Congregation will hold a concert to honor the memory of the late folksinger Pete Seeger from 4 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, May 18 at the synagogue at 1682 Glasco Turnpike, just north of the Glasco Turnpike/ Route 212 intersection. Featuring Rabbi Jonathan Kligler, Albany-area folksingers Kim and Reggie Harris, New Paltzbased musicians and dancers Bill and Livia Vanaver and local guitarist Jeff Miller, the concert will be a musical tribute to the legendary musician and activist who died in January at the age of 95. A friend of Seeger’s, Kligler had held a Shabbat service in March that incorporated some of the folksinger’s more prayerful music, and says that the congregation was “so moved” that he decided to schedule a future concert that would feature a broader selection of Seeger’s songs. “All Pete Seeger wanted us to do is sing together,” says Kligler. “That was his purpose in life, and this is the way to keep his music alive.” A well-known musician in his own right, Kligler grew up listening to Seeger’s records on Folkways Records in the late 1950s. When he learned to play guitar, his first songbook was Pete Seeger’s America’s Favorite Ballads. “Pete Seeger was one of my heroes,” says Kligler. “I remember attending a solo concert of Pete’s at Carnegie Hall when I was a young man. He stood on a small Oriental rug on a bare stage – just him, his banjo, his guitar and a full house of people ready to sing with him. At intermission he simply sat down on the edge of the stage, feet dangling, and chatted with people. There was no proscenium, no pretensions and no separation between performer and audience. I was, at the time, a professional children’s performer, and I promised myself to be like Pete, as much as I was able. I was not interested in performing for the sake of performing, but for the sake of bringing people together. My rabbinate and the way I lead today is a conscious and direct result of watching Pete Seeger.” Kligler began performing in coffeehouses while at Wesleyan University, and during this period wrote his hero a note, telling Seeger what he was doing and how he had influenced his life. “He wrote me back a beautiful note on handmade stationery with a little

MOVIE
May 15, 2014
MOST OF THE APPEAL OF FADING GIGOLO ultimately lies in the chemistry between Turturro and Paradis’ characters, whose gentle, tentative courtship throws the crassness of the rest of the movie into stark and not altogether flattering relief
John Turturro and Vanessa Paradis in Fading Gigolo
Strange arrangement John Turturro delivers a lovable, low-key Lothario in Fading Gigolo
I
f you didn’t know that Fading Gigolo was written and directed by its star, John Turturro, you’d probably think that it was a Woody Allen movie: not one of his strongest, but not one of his weakest either. It has the look, capturing the brownstony atmosphere of New York City neighborhoods like the Upper West Side of Manhattan and Brooklyn’s Williamsburg without romanticizing them overmuch. It has the requisite tasteful jazz soundtrack. It’s also intermittently funny, though not in the laugh-out-loud way of Allen’s earlier oeuvre. And it gives Allen – costarring as Murray, a bookstore owner whose business is going down the tubes – plenty of classically neurotic, rambling Woody Allen-character monologues to utter. (Turturro having portrayed a writer in Allen’s Hannah and Her Sisters, it’s not unimaginable that he let his elder auteur

have a hand in crafting his own lines in Fading Gigolo.) You know that you’ve been here before, and that there are worse places to be. The premise of the film is patently absurd, founded in male wish-fulfillment of a sort that rears its ugly head repeatedly in Woody Allen comedies but has begun to seem retro at best nowadays. Turturro’s character Fioravante is a florist, genuinely gifted with his hands, as we’re shown in many a tender close-up. But he’s having to work multiple jobs to stay afloat, including helping out in Murray’s floundering bookstore. When Murray’s improbably sexy dermatologist Dr. Parker (Sharon Stone) improbably confides in her patient her fantasy of arranging a ménage a trois with her improbably hot friend Selima (Sofía Vergara), Murray, who has a hustler’s instincts if not the experience, promptly volunteers his friend’s services as a gigolo – without first consulting Fioravante. Most of the rest of the first act consists of Murray’s blandishments and rationalizations, which eventually wear down his recalcitrant friend’s resistance to this wild proposition. That a quiet, reserved, rather ordinary middle-aged man like Fioravante could warm to a new role as a sought-after gigolo is not what puts this narrative outside the realm of credibility. It’s more the fact that none of the women who line up for his favors at $1,000 or more a pop is ugly, or

even just plain; they’re all bored, wealthy hotties who could presumably do a lot better than the gangly, hatchet-faced Turturro without spending any money at it. Maybe that’s what’s supposed to make this movie funny – though, given Woody Allen’s history, it just feels like more of his usual habit of slapping his own homelyguy-gets-younger-and-better-looking girl fantasies up on the big screen, which got old a long time ago. That fact makes Allen’s presence a bit of a distraction from the movie’s stronger points (not to mention the quibble that this is actually Turturro’s fantasy). To be fair to the director, his onscreen self is a self-effacing character who gets dragged along in Murray’s manic wake and can’t seem to believe his own success with the ladies, any more than the audience does. The sensitivity and restraint with which he portrays Fioravante would seem a plausible attractant, if only the casting of the women were a bit more, shall we say, democratic, representing a fuller and more realistic spectrum of womanhood. But then they couldn’t get male audiences into the theatres for Fading Gigolo, I suppose. The film reaches a higher level of artfulness in the sequences involving Avigal (Vanessa Paradis), the widow of a Hasidic rabbi who makes Murray’s acquaintance when she is forced by custom to sell her late husband’s personal library (though she clearly wants to read

the books herself ). Unable to modulate his hustle mode once he’s in it, Murray seeks an angle to sell Fioravante’s services to Avigal; he eventually persuades him to hang out his shingle as a masseur. Getting her first-ever massage proves a personal breakthrough for the repressed Avigal, while her luminous beauty and serene acceptance of her culture’s restrictions on a widow’s behavior provoke Fioravante to begin questioning the ethics of his new business model. Her modest steps outside Williamsburg and all its social rigidity also trigger a shakedown of the “masseur” and his pimp by Dovi (Liev Schreiber), the Hasidic security officer who has long been in love with Avigal. The movie includes some throwaway scenes involving Othella (Tonya Pinkins), Murray’s black wife (we presume, though it’s not explicitly stated), and her passel of cute, mischievous offspring who aren’t Murray’s; they mostly serve to allow Allen to mug at the kids and flail a baseball bat around. And Bob Balaban, who just has to put on his round Bob Balaban glasses to be funny as heck, has a good moment or two as Murray’s attorney Sol, who swoops in to rescue him from a grim Hasidic tribunal. But most of the appeal of Fading Gigolo ultimately lies in the chemistry between Turturro and Paradis’ characters, whose gentle, tentative courtship throws the crassness of the rest of the movie into stark and not altogether flattering relief. Their scenes together remind us that the efforts of the SUNY-New Paltz Department of Theatre Arts faculty were not entirely wasted on Turturro all those years ago. While this film will not prop up his reputation as one of Hollywood’s most consistently amusing character actors in the way that his work with Spike Lee and the Coen brothers does, neither is it an embarrassment to its maker. – Frances Marion Platt

OSKAR EUSTIS, ARTISTIC DIRECTOR OF THE PUBLIC THEATER, which puts on New York City’s famous Shakespeare in the Park series, called McCallum “one of the most accomplished and luminescent directors of his generation, as innovative as he is grounded, as collegial as he is fierce. He will make the summers bright in the Hudson Valley.”
Their exits and their entrances Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival unveils new season, new artistic director
After 27 years of helming the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival (HVSF), which delights audiences from near and far with its opulent, highly professional outdoor productions at Boscobel in Garrison each summer, Terry O’Brien has stepped down. But the show must go on; and in the hands of newly appointed artistic director Davis McCallum, go on it will, with Othello and The Two Gentlemen of Verona, along with David Ives’s adaptation of Corneille’s The Liar, scheduled to play in repertory this summer. HVSF Board president Robin Arditi described McCallum (pictured above) – chosen from a field of 110 candidates – as “ideally suited to lead us forward in the next phase of the company’s growth,” citing his “track record of creating theater of great imagination and excitement” and “real passion for both Shakespeare and the core principles of HVSF’s mission.” Said O’Brien, “Davis’ aesthetic and genuine love of Shakespeare resonates completely with what I have always tried to achieve at the Festival…. I look for great things in coming years.” Oskar Eustis, artistic director of the Public Theater, which puts on New York City’s famous Shakespeare in the Park series, called McCallum “one of the most accomplished and luminescent directors of his generation, as innovative as he is grounded, as collegial as he is fierce. He will make the summers bright in the Hudson Valley.” The Atlanta-born, Princeton- and Oxford-trained Rhodes scholar McCallum can boast an impressive stage track record. He has directed at some of the leading regional theaters in the country, including
Rehearsal for HVSF’s upcoming production of Othello
the Old Globe, the Humana Festival at the Actors’ Theater of Louisville, Hartford Stage, Long Wharf, the Williamstown Theater Festival, the Chautauqua Theater Company, the Alliance, the O’Neill, the Two River Theater Company and six summers in the Hudson Valley, at New York Stage & Film’s Powerhouse series in Poughkeepsie. He is currently represented in New York by the critically acclaimed revival of John van Druten’s London Wall at the Mint Theater Company, which was nominated for a 2014 Lucille Lortel Award for Best Revival. Last season, McCallum directed Sam Hunter’s The Whale at Playwrights’ Horizons, which won the 2013 Lucille Lortel Award for Best Play, followed by Quiara Hudes’s Water by the Spoonful, which had won the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, at Second Stage. Other notable New York credits include Queens Boulevard: The Musical for the Signature Theater Company; A Bright New Boise for Partial Comfort Productions, which nabbed Drama Desk nominations for Best Play and Best Director; and Elliot: A Soldier’s Fugue for P73, which was a Pulitzer Prize finalist. He also has plenty of experience with Shakespeare and other classics, recently directing Henry IV, Part One for the Pearl Theater Company. For the Acting Company, the country’s preeminent classical touring theater, he directed adaptations of The Turn of the Screw and Jane Eyre, as well as The Tempest and Henry V, the last of which was the subject of a feature-length documentary film, Still on the Road, which frequently airs on PBS. All three 2014 summer productions
will run at Boscobel from June 10 through August 31. HVSF associate artistic director Chris Edwards will be directing Othello, and guest directors Eric Tucker and Russell Treyz will helm The Two Gentlemen of Verona and The Liar respectively.

Artful pairing Cole/Church exhibition opens this Sunday with lecture at CGCC in Hudson, reception at Cedar Grove in Catskill
M
any have noted how the world and all in it is knowable in any molecule – or person or his or her stories. The joys associated with finding the macro in all micros has fueled the museum world and our sense of history, especially here in the Hudson Valley where the repercussions of things seemingly hyperlocal have a tendency to reveal whole worlds of influence and cascading understanding. Each year, the Thomas Cole House up in Catskill hosts a major, elegantly curated exhibit that, while small and concise, expands the world that the small museum with a big reach covers in the great Hudson River School painter’s scenic home, Cedar Grove. Combined with Olana, the Frederic Church home directly across the river in Columbia County, what results can have the force of ageless epiphanies – especially when combined with the sort of enlightened academic lectures that the Cole House presents each year. This weekend, John Wilmerding, professor of American Art emeritus at

Princeton University, longtime visiting curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and former senior curator and deputy director of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, will be giving a curator’s talk about that new show at Cedar Grove, “Master, Mentor, Master: Thomas Cole & Frederic Church,” which explores and finds
new meaning in the relationship between the area’s two best-known practitioners of the Hudson River School of painting. Because of Professor Wilmerding’s renown as a trustee of the Guggenheim Museum, the new Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Arkansas and the Wyeth Foundation for American Art, as well as for his appointment by President Obama to the Committee for the Preservation of the White House, the free afternoon lecture will be taking place in the Arts Center Theater of the Columbia/ Greene Community College in Hudson on Sunday, May 18, with a reception and free tour of the new exhibit that he has curated at Cedar Grove following. The new exhibit follows themes and tropes that unite and differentiate Cole from his great student Church, who first came to Catskill as an 18-year-old and studied with the new form of landscape painting’s founder and lead practitioner for two years, later championing him alongside the great painters of Europe as his own career rose in estimation and profit. Through early works and later masterpieces, one sees the direct influences at play in such relationships, as well as the departures that one must always take to set out on one’s own road as an individual talent. Along the way, one gets subtle glimmerings of the ways in which our culture has always grown in such ways – and not. “Master, Mentor, Master” runs in the gallery spaces of the Thomas Cole National Historic Site up until November 2. The exhibition is sponsored by the Wyeth Foundation for American Art, Eli Wilner & Co., the Bay and Paul Foundations, the Bank of Greene County, the Greene County Legislature and the Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area. – Paul Smart “Master, Mentor, Master: Thomas Cole & Frederic Church,” curator’s talk by John Wilmerding, Sunday, May 18, 2 p.m., free, Arts Center Theater, Columbia/ Greene Community College, 4400 Route 23, Hudson; reception, 3-5 p.m., free, Thomas Cole National Historic Site, 207 Spring Street, Catskill; (518) 943-7465, www.thomascole.org.
Migrating close to home Wired Gallery reopens at new High Falls venue this Saturday with “First Generation” exhibition
S
everal things about the High Falls area art scene: First off, it has a great sense of memory, combined with intense loyalty. Those who open a gallery get local support, even after it has closed. The community likes to play host to the arts, in other words – even when it means reviving the legacy of the short time when Marc Chagall lived there, or the many others who have made their homes in these hallowed hills. Second, the community embraces invention as well as history. It plays with legacies, different ways that art plays in our lives, and a recurring embrace of the fun side of culture. It keeps chuggin’ along, even when markets dry up or the huge amounts of energy needed to make a scene happen get depleted. That makes it one of the lasting cultural destinations of the region, decade in and decade out. Just consider the story of the Wired Gallery and its newest show: The energetic and inventive gallery was founded by Turkish-born impresario and transplant Sevan Melikyan, who moved to the community five years ago and just announced new digs for his baby – in the grand and elegant, homey space where Barbara Esmark previously ran her highly respected and influential Be Gallery a half-decade back. In doing so, it has not only moved into the center of this reviving community, but also brought back to life one of the area’s cultural landmarks. Then there’s the first new exhibit that Melikyan’s opening in Wired with a reception this Saturday. “First Generation” gathers a group of 13 artists from ten countries on four continents, all of whom emigrated to America to pursue their art. Not only are those artists key to what’s happening at SUNY-New Paltz, in Woodstock, Poughkeepsie and Phoenicia, as well as much closer to home in High

Slabsides (above) and Sanctuary Pond (below)
HISTORY
Take a peek inside Slabsides this Saturday in West Park
L
ast month would have been John Burroughs’ 177th birthday. Local admirers of the great 19th-century naturalist got a very nice present recently when the network of trails crisscrossing the John Burroughs Sanctuary was extended and spruced up in a major way, thanks to a grant from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation and many hours of volunteer labor. You can now follow a plank boardwalk through the swamp where Burroughs used to grow celery (instead of slogging through the muck as before), and there are new stone pathways and stairways all over the place. So, now more than ever, the 170-acre Sanctuary is a rewarding place to visit. But most of the year, the jewel of the site is like a tantalizing package that the visitor is not yet permitted to open – though its windows are like little tears in the giftwrap, through which we may peer for a glimpse and a guess at its contents. I’m talking about Slabsides, of course: the rustic cabin that Burroughs built – partially with his own hands – in 1895. It was in this building that Burroughs 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 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. Slabs of lumber with their bark still on cover the exterior walls, and the rustic red cedar posts that Burroughs helped set in place still uphold the porch. Inside the cabin, the furniture that Burroughs used (and much of which he made) remains as it was. But to get a good look at the interior, including his writing desk and tools, you have to be there on Open House Day – and that only happens twice a year: the third Saturday in May and the first Saturday in October. This Saturday, May 17, is one of those rare opportunities. Slabsides will be open for guided tours from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a presentation at 12 noon. Admission is free. To get there, from Route 9W at West Park, turn west onto Floyd Ackert Road (between the Global Palate restaurant and the Post Office), cross the railroad tracks and follow Floyd Ackert Road about a half-mile to the foot of Burroughs Drive. Park here and walk up the hill to Slabsides, or drive up the hill and park at the green gate on the right, walk through the gate and up the gravel road to Slabsides. For more information, call (845) 384-6320 or visit the newly updated website at www. johnburroughsassociation.org. – Frances Marion Platt
by Mary Anne Erickson, opening at Wired Gallery’s new partner site, the Coldwell Banker Village Green office in Stone Ridge (almost next door to the PS 209 gallery space at Flemming Realty). “Being myself a first-generation immigrant to the US, I have been looking forward to showcasing the many talented artists in our own community who were born in foreign lands. This show honors their world-class talent, their individual journeys and the new inspiration they have drawn from our region,” noted Melikyan of the new show. “We want to contribute to building a sustainable critical mass, so that High Falls continues to be a wonderful place to live and to visit.” “I’m very happy that Wired Gallery will bring its special brand of life and energy to the former Be Gallery building,” added Esmark, who operated her own Be Gallery from 2006 to 2009. “It’s so good to see the space as a center for art and ideas once again.” This weekend’s openings in High Falls and at the Stone Ridge real estate office will run simultaneously from 5 to 7 p.m. on Saturday, May 17 with refreshments by Gomen-Kudasai Noodle Shop of New Paltz and Stone Ridge Wine and Spirits, plus music by Passero, a Latin-infused world music band. Talk about fun, history and culture, all in one package. Both shows run to the middle of July. – Paul Smart “First Generation” opening reception, Saturday, May 17, 5-7 p.m., Wired Gallery, 11 Mohonk Road, High Falls; Mary-Anne Erickson, Saturday, May 17, 5-7 p.m., Coldwell Banker Village Green Realty, 3656 Route 209, Stone Ridge; (682) 564-5613, www.thewiredgallery. com.

“I WANT TO DO IT because I want to do it.” – Amelia Earhart
May 15-22 Visit Gomez Mill House I discovered the Gomez Mill House in Marlboro thanks to Almanac Weekly editor Julie O’Connor, and now I want to tell the world about this wonderful place. Wish that you could visit a historic site that ties together a range of historic periods rather than just one particular era? Looking for a manageable and picturesque historical experience where you can spend anywhere from 45 minutes to an entire afternoon visiting? Then head to the Gomez Mill House. This is a great year to visit: It’s the 300 th anniversary of the house! The story begins with Luís Moses Gomez, whose Jewish family eventually made their way to the US from Spain during the Spanish Inquisition. Gomez was a very successful businessman in New York City, and in his 50s, at the age that many of his peers would have expected to die, Gomez headed upriver, constructed a building and began trading with the local Native Americans – and you should visit to find out what happens next! With so many subsequent owners having their own notable roles in American history, the changes to the house and the land become even more fascinating. Go here, bring the family and take your own idyllic picture of the kids on the sweet bridge crossing the stream by the Mill. This special spot is located at 11 Mill House Road, right off Route 9W, in Marlboro. Don’t use your GPS for this address; visit the website for precise directions. Admission is well-worth the $10 for adults 18 to 54 years, $7 for seniors 55+ and $4 for children 7 to 17 years; it’s free for children age 6 and under. For more information, call (845) 236-3126 or visit www.gomez.org. THURSDAY, MAY 15

This evening is based on Project Identity’s workshops to inspire teen expression through creative arts. You’ll see and hear original music, poetry, dance, art; and the teen-produced ’zine will serve as the program. Bethel Woods is located on Hurd Road in Bethel.

But how can you get inside the Slabsides cabin? You can always arrange to reserve a volunteer docent to give your group a tour – or you can come to this Saturday’s Open House. On Saturday, May 17, Slabsides will be open for guided tours from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a presentation at 12 noon.

Top this Spring Hat Parade at Mowers’ Market in Woodstock this Saturday
T
he Mower family of Woodstock is gearing up to begin its 37th season holding flea markets every Saturday and Sunday on their old homestead: a grassy two-acre field on Maple Lane, one block from the Village Green. And for the eighth season now, in July and August, there’ll be markets midweek on Wednesdays, too. Opening day is Saturday, May 17, featuring something new this year that Janine Mower says that she hopes will become an annual tradition at the market: a Spring Hat Parade. Anybody who wishes to participate should line up at 12:45 p.m. at the corner of Deanie’s Alley and Maple Lane wearing any type of hat that expresses spring. At 1 p.m. the parade will go Mowers’ Market once around the field as three volunteer judges choose their favorite hat – the judges will decide based on “whatever strikes their fancy,” Janine says – and its wearer will receive a gift certificate to the Mowers’ flea market. Because this will be the first-ever Spring Hat Parade, the logistics of it aren’t set in stone. “It’s just about celebrating the fashion of hats, and celebrating THE MOWER FAMILY ourselves,” says Janine. The idea came OF WOODSTOCK about after she began wearing hats at is gearing up to begin its 37th season the markets a few years back. With holding flea markets every Saturday a history of melanoma in her family, and Sunday on their old homestead Janine wanted to lessen the risks of working outside in the sun all day. Now that she has a good collection of hats at this point, she got to talking with some of the market vendors who also love hats, and voilà! The idea was born. As a bonus, Janine says, they get to spread a little awareness about preventing skin cancer as well. Pets are welcome, and admission to the event is free. The Mowers’ Saturday and Sunday Markets are a tradition in Woodstock for many,

who come to see what’s new (or old, as the case may be) in the eclectic mix of antiques, crafts and collectibles, farm produce, vintage designer clothing and other offerings. Even Janine first discovered the markets growing up as a teenager in Woodstock, where she’d go to check out the jewelry “like all the other girls in town,” she says. After marrying into the Mower family, Janine now works with husband John, who started the markets 37 years ago, and other family members to put on the weekly flea markets from May through early November. Janine is also a registered nurse with 30 years’ experience, and has written several local history books, most recently Legendary Locals of Woodstock for Arcadia Press, co-authored with Woodstock town historian Richard Heppner. Janine authored Woodstock (Images of America) and Woodstock Revisited (Images of America), also for Arcadia Press, and in 2007 self-published a history of the Mower family, American Tapestry: The Mowers of Maple Lane, chronicling 100 years of a Woodstock family. – Sharyn Flanagan Spring Hat Parade, Saturday, May 17, 12:45 p.m., free, Mowers’ Saturday Market, Deanie’s Alley & Maple Lane, Woodstock; woodstockfleamarket@hvc.rr.com.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK
If at first you don’t succeed… Our intrepid garden correspondent decides to give two past disappointments another try wrong variety and cooking it poorly. I’m not sure if any varieties were available back then, but I was convinced to order seed of the suggested variety, Gobbo di Nizza (Hunchback of Nice), and will sow them in pots as soon as they arrive. Once the weather warms reliably, I’ll plant out two or three small plants, giving them rich soil. Once the plants are three feet high, I’ll mound some soil or wood chips up around their bases and tie the leaves together to blanch them, then, a few weeks later, cut down the four-foot-tall monsters for eating. I was told that they taste like artichoke, a close relative. In warm-winter regions, cardoon grows as a perennial. If winters were warm here, I’d plant cardoon even if they tasted awful. That’s because in their second year, they send up six-foot-high stalks capped with bottlebrushes of cerulean blue flowers that sit in an artichokey base. I’ve also previously grown – or tried to grow – the second of this year’s N & EP (“new and exciting plants”): King Red Russian olive. It’s a variety of Russian olive, native to Afghanistan,

that, instead of bearing the usual innocuous silvery-green fruits, bears bright-red fruits. The fruits contrast nicely with the silvery-green leaves – and taste pretty good. For some reason, King Red doesn’t like our summer weather; probably the humidity. My plant of yore grew fine until sometime in July, when it collapsed, dead. Others in the humid East have had similar experiences. Out West, King Red, which was introduced as a conservation plant decades ago by the US Department of Agriculture, grows fine – too fine, so that it is now listed as an invasive plant out there, along with regular old green-fruited Russian olive. (Sometimes they are listed so in the East also, although they seem pretty sedate around these parts.) I’m thinking that somewhere in the

genes of King Red – which is a seedpropagated variety, not a clone – might lie genes that can tolerate our summer climate. To that end, I got my hands on seeds left from a bag of imported dried King Red fruits; I’ll sow them all and hope for the best. (I once tasted the dried fruits; they are like sweet talcum powder, enclosed within a brittle “shell.”) The fruits parade under a number of aliases: Trebizond date, lotus tree. Botanically, it’s Elaeagnus angustifolia var. orientalis. Another fruit, Ficus Afghanistanica, or mountain fig tree, is among my N & EP. With more than a halfdozen fig varieties in my not-veryfig-friendly climate, you’d think that I had enough figs. Mountain fig tree is worth a try for its hardiness – by some accounts, to well below zero degrees Fahrenheit. Of less importance here in the humid East is its drought-tolerance, which may be related and help with its cold-hardiness. Also on the plus side: The plant has decorative leaves, similar to common fig leaves, except pointed at their tips. On the negative, there’s some question as to whether this fig needs pollination – something that most fig varieties do not need. If so, a special pollinator variety would be needed, as well as some means to get the pollen into the eye of each fruit at the right time. A syringe filled with pollen? Figs that need pollination normally get their pollen with the help of Blastophagus, which is a tiny wasp that, laden with pollen, enters the eyes of developing fruits to lay eggs and, in so doing, inadvertently pollinate the flowers within.

n this early part of the growing season, I’m frequently asked, “So what new and exciting plants are you growing in the garden this year?” And just as frequently, I can’t think of anything. Not that gardening isn’t “new and exciting” every year, what with the vagaries of the weather and pests, and their interaction with planting, pruning and soil care. Well, this year I can think of at least four new and exciting plants I’m growing. I actually have grown cardoon before – perhaps 25 years ago. And up until this weekend, I had no desire ever to grow it again. The plant is like a giant celery with spiny stalks that must be tied together so that they get blanched and edible – or supposedly edible, once you remove the tough strings running down each stalk. Blanching and destringing was a lot of trouble – too much trouble for me, considering the taste of what remained of the tough stalk after being cooked. This weekend, two people at my grafting workshop digressed from grafting to wax enthusiastic over cardoon. Evidently, my problems 25 years ago were growing the

The new meteor shower We will collide with pieces of Comet Linear
I
t’s still a few days away, but our next issue may come out too late for my information to be helpful to some of you. So I’ll give it to you now, and perhaps you’ll mark it on your calendar: The date is Friday night, May 23. The time is 2 a.m. – meaning the wee hours of Saturday morning. A new meteor shower is a rare event. After all, some of the existing annual displays of shooting stars have been around for millennia. The Chinese reported watching the Perseids every August 2,000 years ago. Of course, they did not call that shower the Perseids, nor did they call it August. Indeed, meteors were not recognized as an outer-space phenomenon until modern times. They were widely regarded as oddities of our air; the word meteorology means “pertaining to the atmosphere.” Ever since 2004, we’ve been aware of Comet Linear. At its best (but not currently), it has looked pretty nice in amateur telescopes, even if it never reached naked-eye visibility. What’s important is that our planet is about to sweep through debris shed by that iceball. On this point, meteor experts are in total agreement: We will collide with fragments from that comet next weekend. The US and Canada, alone among all the world’s nations, are in an optimal position to observe this event. The fireworks will persist for only two to three hours. The show will start around 2 a.m. and end between 4 and 4:30. The meteors will streak away from the northern sky, radiating from the dimmest of all far-northern constellations: Camelopardalis the Giraffe. Since meteor showers are named using the Latin possessive form of the constellation in which the radiant is located, this shower should properly be called the Camelopardalids. Try saying that three times fast! You don’t have to know that. The important thing is that the radiant will be located just beneath the North Star, Polaris. The meteors will fly away from that direction and
If this materializes, it will be the best meteor event of our lives
hickory nuts is offset by the tediousness of cracking and shelling them. That’s shagbark hickory (Carya ovata), which is native throughout the eastern US. Shellbark hickories (C. lacinosa) have similar nut flavor and shape, except that they are two or three times larger, so you get more bang for your buck with each nut you crack. Walking just a quarter of a mile in any direction, I’d be likely to find some shagbark hickory nuts on the ground but nary a shellbark hickory. The latter species is found mostly along the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, and bordering regions; nowhere, though, is it common. So I ordered trees from the Nolin River Nut Tree Nursery – and not just any old shellbark trees, but the varieties Simpson and Selbhers. Both are billed as heavybearing and producing medium-to-large nuts with excellent cracking qualities. Very “new and exciting;” I hope to enjoy the nuts of my labor in five to 10 years.

Humming in harmony Hive Event Celebration Collective hosts Launch Party in High Falls this Sunday merica has long romanticized the mythology of “rugged individualism.” More so than ever, in these days when Devil-take-the-hindmost libertarian philosophies are becoming increasingly popular and even stodgily middleof-the-road politicians get lightly labeled “socialists,” advocating any kind of collective action means inviting ostracism – if only in the form of sarcastic suggestions that you go get your governmentissued free cell phone, because you must be a “taker.” And the concept of a “hive mind,” in which individual ambitions take a back seat to some greater good of the group, automatically seems to evoke dystopian science fiction. And yet, there remains something so quaintly appealing about the nearly-lost notion of the Commonweal. Like bees, people working together can achieve so much more than individuals striving alone, both sharing the burden and spreading the benefits around more widely. One might fairly argue that pooling resources of talent and creating local barter economies, especially in economically challenging times, actually exemplify the best in human ingenuity and the entrepreneurial spirit. In High Falls, a group of small servicerelated businesses and professionals in many fields has gotten together to form a consortium known as the Hive Event Celebration Collective. Its members can provide a broad array of products and services, organized under an event umbrella, to be spotlighted in a Launch Party this Sunday afternoon. Photography, a couturier, venues, caterers and spirits, food trucks, agriforagers, floral designers, design conception, vintage dish and prop rentals, hair and makeup artists, jewelry designers, vacation rentals, retreat centers, dogboarders, chocolate-makers, bakers, a wedding registry, fine artwork as gifts

appear throughout the sky. So what can we expect? The most optimistic estimates come from famed meteor expert Peter Jenniskens, who thinks that there will be something like a meteor a second and that, moreover, they will tend to be brilliant. If this materializes, it will be the best meteor event of our lives. Other meteor experts think the rate will be closer to two or three every minute, which is still excellent – though slightly inferior to be fabulous Leonid meteor shower that we saw in the wee hours of November 18, 2001. These more pessimistic meteor people also believe that the particles from the comet will be a bit smaller than the initial projections, making most of the meteors nice, but not brilliant. Bottom line: If it’s clear that night, it would be wise to set the alarm and watch the sky, starting at 2 a.m. Use a lawn chair and a warm blanket and take in as much sky as you can in any direction, with the north favored. Don’t try merely to peek through spaces between trees; get to a wide expanse of sky. By 2:30 or 3 a.m. we will have the verdict: Either an amazing event is unfolding and you should wake your friends, or it will be a fizzle, which is always possible. Of course, if it’s mostly cloudy, we’re screwed. Let’s keep our fingers crossed. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

STAGE
BILL COSBY PERFORMS BENEFIT FOR CIVIC CENTER IN POUGHKEEPSIE ON THURSDAY
B
ill Cosby, who comes to Poughkeepsie for a single-night performance benefiting the Mid-Hudson Civic Center on Thursday, May 15, draws a smile to everyone’s lips. One generation knows him from his late-1950s and early-1960s comedy recordings, while the next recalls his being the first black TV star on I Spy, alongside Robert Culp. There are those raised on the Fat Albert cartoons, and then the iconic and still-great-inrerun Cosby Show of the 1980s. He has also been a regular on Captain Kangaroo, Sesame Street and The Electric Company. People admire Cosby for having gone back to college to get a teaching degree that he used both to teach and to inform his comedy work, as well as for his many awards and the books that he has written along the way – including the current best-selling memoir, I Didn’t Ask to Be Born, But I’m Glad I Was. In addition to its mission to provide “cultural, recreational and education opportunities to the Hudson Valley,” the Civic Center sponsors others’ performances, events and activities – which Cosby will be supporting with his performance. – Paul Smart Bill Cosby, Thursday, May 15, 8 p.m., $65/$55/$45, Mid-Hudson Civic Center, 1 Civic Center Plaza, Poughkeepsie; (800) 745-3000, (845) 454-5800, www. ticketmaster.com, www.midhudsonciviccenter.org.

It’s a great way to introduce your business to new/old customers. And, if you have leftover merchandise you’d like to sellthis would be a perfect way to unload it.

Hey, we all know Woodstock is a special place known for its art, music, and culture, but did you know that it was once known for glass and shoes? Back in the mid 1700’s the area known as Woodstock stretched from Windham to Kingston, to the west branch of the Delaware River, and included much of what we now know as Greene County! But by the beginning of the 1900’s Woodstock had shrunken to the boundaries we now know, and had turned into a sleepy little village. In 1902, with the advent of the Arts and Crafts movement, Woodstock became home to the arts, and has thrived as a cultural center ever since. It is a glorious and precious place to live!

DIANA’S FANCY FLEA MARKET: Nice Items Needed For Next Sale! Call Diana 626-0221. To Benefit Diana’s CAT Shelter in Accord.
I CAN READ!!! (I’m Sampson, a healthy, good natured & (I’m told) handsome CAT guy; solid black w/green eyes.) I was used to being in a home but somehow I was left alone & freezing in the streets of Kingston during this very cold winter. I came begging at someone’s door- I saw the welcome mat! A wonderful person helped me by feeding me & keeping me safe. I’ve also been neutered, had vaccines for rabies & distemper, tested negative for FIV or FeLV, litter box trained and get along w/other kitties. If you’d like to meet me, love me and be friends “furever”, please call

is especially shy. Perfect scenario is if all 3 could be adopted together as they support one another. If interested in just Copper & Sweet Cream or only William, please let me know! For more information about these wonderful cats, please email carriechapman@gmail.com or call (347)258-2725. LOST. Vicinity of Rt. 9W & Grand St. in Highland, small chihuahua & dachshund mixed dog with Yankees collar. Please call 845-691-2770. MYSTERY; about 10-years old & is a total lap cat. She came to the shelter w/a rash over her whole body. Her skin is beautiful now but she is still feeling the stress of not being in a home. She eats special food as we think she may have food allergies. She’s a petite polydactyl tuxedo so her extra toes can hug you even more! STARFISH; also petite, has a beautiful gray coat & golden eyes. She’s been in the shelter for more than a year. She’s one of the cats rescued from a huge humane law seizure. Before she was rescued, Starfish was picked on by some of the other cats in the hoarder’s house & suffered skin wounds that are improving but taking quite a long time to heal. About 2-3 years & we think a loving home (foster or adoptive) would give Starfish the peace she needs to fully recover. She’s such a sweet & friendly kitty. Separate foster or adoptive homes would be fine for Mystery and Starfish. Please call the Ulster County SPCA at (845)331-5377 extension 218 (Cat Supervisor) to find out more about these two lovely cats. PROJECT CAT is a non-profit cat
