Rebirth Woodstock Farm Sanctuary reopens in High Falls

he Woodstock Farm Sanctuary’s big free reopening at its new site on the former Camp Epworth property in the Rondout Valley’s High Falls area, which runs all day Saturday, September 5, has a little bit of everything for everybody, while also promoting the clear mission and message of the reconstituted and growing farm sanctuary. To fully celebrate the 150 acres of pasture and perfect home for its saved farm and other animals, Woodstock Farm Sanctuary is bringing together ten award-winning food trucks from the Hudson Valley and New York City, with an emphasis on Vegan and truly health-conscious offerings (plus snacks and volunteer meals from a number of local businesses); super kids face painting by the legendary Fela Chipak of The Artistic Paw and arts and crafts workshops with recycled materials from Brian Yarnish and Candice of The Scrapkins; music by indie music veterans Bree Sharp and Don DiLego of Beautiful Small Machines, alongside such other special guests throughout the day as NYC-based Fox & The Bandit, and the musical stylings of Volume III...and plenty

of opportunities to mix, mingle and get to know the Woodstock Farm Sanctuary’s many treasured animals. t all runs from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. in anticipation of a new season of weekend Woodstock Farm Sanctuary tour dates

that start next Saturday, September 12 and run through October in anticipation of a full season’s opening next April. Talk about an event NOT to be missed. — Paul Smart

Reopening, Saturday September 5 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., free, on Lucas Avenue in High Falls, just south and west of the Route 213 crossroads, 845-247-5700, www. woodstocksanctuary.org

175th Columbia County Fair

Do you realize that the State of New York can boast of almost 50 county fairs each summer? You could travel up and down the countryside, and see more cotton candy and funnel cakes and corn dogs in New York than in the whole of the Midwest. Maybe... (That could be a slight exaggeration, because those Iowans do love their midway-fried food.) If you managed to hit the Ulster County or Dutchess County fairs recently, you know of that which I write. But if you missed all such traditional outdoor extravaganzas this summer, you still have one more opportunity for a literal fair food pig-out and countrified fandan-

The facilities employees from the Culinary Craft Association (CCA) that work at the Culinary Institute of America would like to take a minute and tell you what matters to us. The community matters, the students matter, our families matter, our jobs matter, and the CCA matters!!! We need your help to reach out and stop the CIA from outsourcing our jobs! We are loyal, dedicated, local employees, looking to keep our jobs to support our families. Email President Tim Ryan at t_ryan@ culinary.edu and voice your concern. The CIA administration has outsourced more than 60 goodpaying, local jobs to an outside company in the last 2 years! Our brothers and sisters lost their jobs, a living wage, and benefits! This hurts our community, it hurts the College, and it hurts the students we serve. We have asked the CIA to agree not to outsource any more of our jobs. We need your help to convince the administration to agree!

Participating breweries include Allagash Brewing Company, Stone Brewing Co., St. Bernardus, Sixpoint Brewery, Sierra Nevada, Schneider Weisse, Hitachino Nest and Ballast Point Brewing & Spirits. Also new at the event will be a fashion show scheduled for 2 p.m., highlighting women’s wear from at least three of New Paltz’s village boutiques — Handmade & More, Rambling Rose and Cocoon — in order to showcase another aspect of what New Paltz businesses have to offer. “I’m going to try to get as many stores as want to, to participate,” says Melinda Minervini, owner of Handmade & More. “The models will be customers or friends of the shop-owners and their staff. The focus of Taste of New Paltz is on the restaurants, but the Chamber really does want to give people a taste of something else going on in our town. The concept, really, is to try to represent the different shopping venues for women there are and show that there are a lot of different options.”

There will be demonstrations in the Health and Wellness Expo, with local fitness clubs, massage therapists, nutritionists and more represented. SUNY New Paltz will have a booth demonstrating its 3D printing and the Country Store will return as well along with the popular Business Expo.

And now this voice, said to have a four-octave range, will fill the hall at Mountain View Studio in Woodstock Saturday night, when Webster headlines “September Songs,” a Performing Arts of Woodstock fundraiser to support the organization’s next season of programs. Just back from Le Caprice in London last week, and earlier in the month in Atlanta to perform and do a slot on jazz public radio station WCLK with Jamal Ahmad, the singer/songwriter is promoting her new album You Change. “Putting an album out is such a…it’s just that’s who you are,” she says, talking with Ahmad. “It’s like, ‘Here it is.’ You

With a diverse repertoire of soul, jazz, R & B, and pop, Webster has been compared to just a few of the greats — Aretha Franklin and Chaka Kahn — and claims Mariah Carey as her first music idol. A quick listen to a clip on the artist’s web site (www.lindseywebstermusic. com/) hints at the texture of Sade or Basia. You compare and choose. Or simply enjoy the flow of notes coming out of this adept and original young singer. At Mountain View Studio, the Woodstock native will be accompanied on keyboard by long-time music partner and Grammy award winner Keith Slattery. Together the duo has performed over 600 shows in venues near and far, producing a captivating sound that takes audiences to a new high. lso on stage this Saturday to provide a bit of comic relief and

hen you call a guitarist avant-garde, be it one as noisy and experimental as Elliott Sharp or as generally amiable as the great Bill Frisell, one question hovers: is it as “out there” as the unsettling improvisations of Derek Bailey? The answer is generally “no,” and then you get on with trying to describe what it is, not what it isn’t. the Bostonborn New York-residing guitarist Mary Halverson’s name has been oft-spoke in the avant-garde discussion for pretty much all of the new millennium. What it is isn’t so easy to say, for the nimble and harmonically rich axe-person has covered a lot of ground in a lot releases, from alien art song in her duo with violist Jessica Pavone to Opulence, her explosively unpredictable and dynamic duet with drummer Weasel Walter. Halvorson’s trio on her acclaimed 2008 release Dragon’s Head included the highly active and versatile New York drummer Ches Smith, with whom Halvorson will be dueting at Quinn’s in Beacon — where Avant-garde jazz is like what blues rock is everywhere else—on Tuesday, Sept 8 at

oring an event that has overshadowed almost to a point of erasure the search for a less restricted but just and workable society with values not necessarily represented by political leaders of the time. As independent filmmakers, themselves, an even higher priority for the festival is in the merit of the films’ “edu-tainment” qualities and their capacity to inform with entertainingly artistic flair. “I’m a communicator,” observes Koenig, speaking from his studies of Native American traditions, adding that his life sometimes feels as if he is “fulfilling a prophecy” from a native prophet who saw that “the great-great grandchildren of the invaders would one day have to rebel against their own leaders because they knew that they were destroying the natural environment. They were treating the Earth as if they could use it up.” Conservation, however, is only one note in a symphony of widely ranging topics

Trapaniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Old King Cole at Barnes & Noble I feel like we should all just collect every single one of childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book illustrator and author Iza Trapaniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books, because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so wonderful, including her latest release, Old King Cole. As usual, her drawings are warm, fun, and whimsical, and her storyline is fresh and engaging.

FRANCO VOGT

Just for the Love of It Happy Traum at the Maverick

n his new recording, out on CD, not quite officially released but available to the concert goers who’ll show up

at his performance at the Maverick at 8 p.m. Saturday, September 5, fabled fingerpicker Happy Traum lists the guitars he plays on each of the tracks.

On the first song, a beautifully grooved version of Careless Love, Happy digs in on a grittily-toned Gibson J-200 that was once owned by Reverend Gary Davis, the King of the Street Singers, who would shout the gospel on New York’s streets in the 1940s and 50s, backed by his intricate ragtime fingerpicking style. “It’s a typical old story,” says Traum. “It was found in somebody’s attic, a woman’s father had passed away and the daughter brought it to an old roadie of John Sebastian’s. She said it had belonged to a preacher or something. Through photos and Matt Umanov (one of the top vintage guitar experts in the world) it as discovered that it was one that Reverend Gary Davis had played back in the 50s. I had borrowed it for a little bit, so I just played it on that one tune, I had to play it on that. It’s a beautiful guitar.” Traum uses a handful of instruments on the record, called Just for the Love of It, and the title truly describes the way it feels. “It was like going to see friends and bring different guitars with me. There was not a whole lot of prearranging, very little overdubbing. It was mostly done just live. I sang and played and the band played with me...” The disc was produced by Traum with Larry Campbell, recorded at local studios and features Campbell and his wife Teresa Williams, bassist Byron Isaacs, drummer Jerry Marotta and, of course, Traum’s pal, Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famer John Sebastian. “I’m happy with the CD,” says Traum. “Everybody had been very supportive and said nice things about it. Best thing I’ve done in a really long time.” Especially important to the artist is the song “High Muddy Water.” “John Herald’s song moves me,” he says. “He was such a good friend and soulful musician. I’m glad to do my part in honoring him.”

he Maverick show will feature Traum with a small group of co-

horts. Sebastian will be on board, as will the great Dobro and steel player Cindy Cashdollar, newly returned to living in town and just in off the road after a summer performing with Albert Lee. Woodstock singer, songwriter Zach Djanikian will also play with the group. “I just though I would try to mix in someone a little different,” says Traum. “He plays a few different instruments.” Traum loves treading on such hallowed musical ground. “The Maverick is such a beautiful place to play. What an honor to be part of their 100th anniversary program.” Tickets are $40 and $25 and are available at http://maverickconcerts.tix. com/; by calling 679-8217. The Maverick Concert Hall is at 120 Maverick Road, Woodstock.

Dustbowl Revival at Falcon With their name alone Dustbowl Revival, doesn’t leave much to the imagination regarding their sound and influences. Swinging, stomping, jigging, tangoing, picking and grinning, and allowing for an occasional tussle with rhythm and blues and old soul groove, this eight piece “American roots orchestra” is distinguished not so much by the originality of its concept but by its restless diversity and by the spirit and skill of the execution. Dustbowl Revival’s recent release With a Lampshade On is partially live, and it attests to the power and allure of a really happening live band. Dustbowl Revival appears at the Falcon in Marlboro on Wednesday, September 9. The Littlest Birds open at 7 p.m. There is no cover charge but generous donation is encouraged. The Falcon is located at 1348 Route 9W in Marlboro. For more information, see www.liveatthefalcon.com. —John Burdick

Basilica SoundScape and Godspeed You! Black Emperor

360-degree, multimedia marathon of art situated in a sprawling post-industrial environment, the fourth annual Basilica SoundScape, September 11-13, is nothing new at this adventurous Hudson venue. It is just an enhanced bit of business as usual, actually, a weekend with a star next to it to be sure, but nothing out of line or out of character with what goes down here routinely. The repurposing of abandoned industrial spaces as hosts of fiercely contemporary art seems to be the signifier of a new era renewal, as MASS MoCA, Basilica, and about half of Brooklyn attest. The brainchild of a music world notable in former Hole and Smashing Pumpkins bassist Melissa Auf du Mar, Basilica Hudson is a music-first expression of the same nation-wide industrial reclamation theme that gave us the art-first MASS MoCA and Dia Art Foundation sites. And Basilica has always had a clear house aesthetic, musically. No, not ‘90s alt rock, but long-form post-rock, electronic soundscaping, ecstatic world music, altered state drone, and groovy extensions of what, down in Kingston, is known as Deep Listening. Basilica festivals blithely blend pop and art as if the difference is barely even worth discussing anymore. On the SoundScape bill, one finds the sexuality-charged, polarizing indie pop of Perfume Genius and Jenny Hval alongside Brooklyn’s oddly ambient metal group Sannnhet and the Triangle Trio — a group of notable New York scene drummers plying the trance powers of rhythm. But Basilica calls itself a multidisciplinary art center and the SoundScape menu backs that up. Literary offerings at SoundScape include “The Night She Slept with a Bear,” a lit and sound collaboration

between writer Holly Anderson (Mission of Burma) and composer Chris Brokaw (Come, Codeine), and “Writers in the Rafters” performances by Dorothea Lasky, Sarah Jean Alexander, and Ariana Reines. On the visual arts front, Contemporary artist Dan Colen will present a suite of new, large-scale paintings from his Tar and Feather series — all made on site at the Basilica. The Tar and Feather series evolved from Colen’s infamous “Hamster Nest” performances with Dash Snow and others in the post-9/11 downtown New York art scene. In the Basilica back gallery appears The Now Forever: this conflagration is progress, the NOW IS FOREVER! curated by Michael St. John with Tyler Moore, Carol McCranie and Javier Magri. Featuring: David Alekhougie, Nate

Lowman, Nathaniel Robinson, Josh Smith, Borna Sammak, Fox Hysen, Harmony Korine, Brock Enright, Haley Mellin, Dennis Dawson, Alex McQuilkin, Suzanne McClelland, and Michael St. John.

part of SoundScape but also apart, the legendary Canadian sound collective Godspeed You! Black Emperor fires the warning shot of SoundScape with a separately ticketed concert on Tuesday, September 8. The Internet was very slow on the morning I dedicated to revisiting Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s influential early work, the sludgy buffering of my (paid) streaming service adding a complimentary layer of glacial development to the Montreal band’s bluntly descriptive tracks, such as “Gath-

ering Storm” and “Terrible Canyons of Static” from their pick-of-the-litter 2000 release Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven. In truth, the Glacier ride at the amusement park is one of the least popular, and, even with track lengths that start at 10 minutes, Godspeed You! Black Emperor has always understood the virtues of getting on with things. They capture the feel of geologic time in their forms but also deliver on the promise of a real journey. Also, revisiting their early material, I am struck by how much Arcade Fire nicked their vibe from these city mates. Like post-rock progenitors Tortoise, whose early records were wildly influential as proof-of-concept game changers, but whose under-attended later releases reveal far more compositional acumen and formal mastery, Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s lastest, 2015’sAsunder, Sweet and Other Distress is if anything more compelling than the stuff that made them famous. That’s good. Godspeed You! Black Emperor performs at Basilica on Tuesday, September 8 at 8 p.m. with Xylouris White opening. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door if available. Ticket buyers are entitled to a discounted admission price to the SoundScape Festival. Tickets may be purchased at http://basilicasoundscape. com/ Basilica Soundscape begins Friday, September 11 at 6 p.m. For full daily lineups and ticketing options, visit http:// basilicasoundscape.com. — John Burdick Godspeed You!

he Friday night show, The Art Of The Duo, September 4 at 7:30 p.m. at Old Dutch Church, 272 Wall Street, Kingston, will feature the amazing vocalist Sheila Jordan and bassist Cameron Brown. Jordan has been collaborating on voice-bass duos for years and has been playing with Brown for ten years, having released the live albums â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve Grown Accustomed to the Bassâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Celebration.â&#x20AC;? For many years, Su Terry and Peggy Stern have evolved as a duo, culminating in a live CD recorded in St. Petersburg a few years ago, entitled The Art of the Duo. And joining them on the bill will be the duo of vocalist Teri Roiger and bassist John Menegon, who have not only been collaborating for 20 years, but are among the fiercest and most dedicated jazz activists in the area. Teri is a jazz vocalist, but also plays piano. John is a jazz bassist, but also sings and plays guitar.

he Wall Street Jazz Festival came into being in 2004 when John Bilotti and Peggy Stern were attending a jazz festival and noticed there were no women included in the line-up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong with this picture?â&#x20AC;? gave way to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, what are we going to do about it?â&#x20AC;? And so, a concept was born: a jazz festival where the traditions meet the progressives, and all the leaders are women. BilottiÂ has much experience in the music world. Having owned and operated his own Jazz Club, The Half Note CafĂŠ in the Hudson Valley for five years in Palenville, as well as a stint as managing owner of the famed Joyous Lake CafĂŠ in Woodstock, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paid his dues and reaped the benefit of the knowledge gaine. Artistic Director Stern has been a member of the greater jazz community for many years, asÂ a well-known pianist, composer, conductor and recording artist.

he big outdoors show on Wall Street on Saturday night, September 5 is free. All you have to do is show up. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how to get there: From the NYS Thruway Exit 19 or Route 28: Take the Washington Ave. exit from the traffic circle.

It’s also a meet-and-greet with 26 Hudson Valley-based artists, a cocktail reception with food and wine, a fundraiser to benefit community nonprofits, a shop-local opportunity to plan ahead for holiday gift-giving and — if that’s not enough for one evening — Fall for Art is also a chance to participate in a little “Tikkun Olam,” to borrow the Hebrew phrase that translates roughly as “repair and heal the world.” The 19th annual Fall for Art fundraiser will be held Thursday, Sept. 10 from 6 p.m.–9 p.m. at the Wiltwyck Golf Club in Kingston. Tickets cost $45 in advance online or $50 at the door. The event is put together every year by the nonprofit Jewish Federation of Ulster County. Proceeds raised at Fall for Art — through ticket sales, a revenue-sharing arrangement with participating artists and sponsorship by local businesses — support the local programs of the Federation, who in turn donate $1000 to another local nonprofit (that’s where the “Tikkun Olam” comes in: share what you have to fix what is broken in society and heal the world). Past recipients have included the Saugerties Boys & Girls Club, Benedictine Cancer Center and the Rosendale Theatre Collective. This year, the Mental Health Services of HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley has been invited to select $1000

worth of artwork from the show to enhance its Kingston facility. The artists who participate in the event are guaranteed to be in attendance at Fall for Art to discuss their work. The Federation committee made up of Barbara Cohen, Arlene Gould, Linda Hutchinson, Sloane Grubard, Sara Beames, Darlene Levit, Randy Mundi and Sue Worthman found the artists for the juried show through gallery visits and previous experience with specific artists as well as

through an annual open call for entries. The 26 artists participating this year work in oils, watercolors, mixed media and acrylics (Tatiana Rhinevault, Mitchell Saler, Doreen Stopczynski, Mira Fink, Pam Krimsky, Hillary Korn Fontana, Louise Lefkovits, Glenn Grubard); wood (Maria Elena Ferrer-Harrington, John Franklin); fused glass (Sara Beames); ceramics (Barbara Bravo, Brinton Baker, Barbara Tepper Levy, Leslie Reich); photography (Michael Citron, Robert

Gartner, Cathie King, Jim Smith); fiber (Basia Kaminski, Fran Raia); silver (Raychel Wengenroth); and handmade jewelry (Susan Basch, Janet Baskerville, Ann Egan and Carli Bruno).

HAND/MADE: The Digital Age and The Industrial Revolution

magining doilies, trivets, and armies of disgruntled grandmas, some students still giggle at the notion of the Arts & Crafts Movement as an expression of genuinely revolutionary intent, but of course it was in its own time and social context, which is to say the Industrial revolution. Philosophers of art such as John Ruskin and idealistic practitioners and entrepreneurs such as William Morris expressed values in fiery opposition to the mass produced artifacts of the industrial age, the degraded conditions of its workers and the despoliation of its environment. Originally a British phenomenon of aristocracy rebelling against aristocracy, Woodstock’s Byrdcliffe Colony (founded by a British aristocrat) was one of the first and perhaps most famous examples of this paradoxical Utopian thinking and practice in the United States. Highlighting stark parallels between the Industrial age conditions of the Arts & Crafts Movement and the digital present, the exhibition HAND/MADE: The Digital Age and The Industrial Revolution opens to the public Friday, September 4 at the Kleinert/James Center for the Arts in Woodstock, with panel talks and a reception beginning at 3 p.m. Saturday, September 5. In the shadow of the

Byrdcliffe colony, curator Nancy Azara, with her advisory team of Katie Cercone and Emily Harris examine how the present replays the artistic dynamics and issues of the industrial age. Write the curators, “The ‘people versus machines’ debate appears more pressing than before in an era in which our privacy, our attention spans, and the pace of our everyday lives seem less and less under our control. Whether convenienced, empowered, or even ‘strung out’ on digital media, modern societies retain a need for something to remedy the effects of the overwhelming digital turn that characterizes the last decade.” Artists respond to digital pressures with various kinds of affirmations of the organic and the community-based, the handmade and the homegrown. HAND/MADE: The Digital Age and the Industrial Revolution includes work by Karen Azoulay, Jude Broughan, Katie Cercone, Alex Chowaniec, Coco Dolle, Elisa Garcia de la Huerta, Emily

Magrey, Diane Meyer, Benjamin Phelan, Kara Rooney, Tarragon Smith, and Jonathan Taylor. A number of free public performances will accompany the exhibition: on Sunday, September 6th at 5pm is A Thousand Times Thy Light: A Participatory Performance Experience Led by Legacy Fatale (Coco Dolle and Shawn Bishop) and Go! Push Pops (Katie Cercone and Elisa Garcia de la Huerta). This participatory art dance ritual at the Kleinert/ James presents a new-age spin on the Shakespeare poem “A Thousand Times Good Night.” Two additional performances will close the show in October. — John Burdick

The Zen Dot Energy of Merrill Steiger FRG Objects & Design/Art in Hudson will open its doorsÂ 6 p.m.-9 p.m. Saturday, September 5 to exhibit the enigmatic work of Merrill Steiger. In her collection titled Zen Dot Energy, Steiger attempts to reveal a â&#x20AC;&#x153;universally understood electric current felt across cultural boundaries.â&#x20AC;? Using pointillism, scale shift, color harmony and spatial involution in this series, she has created an almost hallucinatory set of images for the viewer. The work vibrates and mesmerizes, a purposeful effect meant to â&#x20AC;&#x153;free us of pre-conditioned, regulated western strictures.â&#x20AC;? A mid-career artist who divides her time between New York City and Woodstock, Steiger has exhibited extensively in both solo and group exhibitions at museums, university galleries, art fairs, and commercial galleries nationwide, most recently mounting solo exhibitions at Spectrum Miami in Miami, FL, and ArtExpo and the Walter Wickiser Gallery in New York City. Her paintings are also housed in a number of public, private, and permanent collections. Steigerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work is informed by extensive travel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mexico, Australia, Africa and Asia, including Cambodia, Vietnam, India, the Himalayas, and Japan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; through which she exposes herself to the art of ancient cultures. Visiting spiritual â&#x20AC;&#x153;power spotsâ&#x20AC;? or geographic sites purportedly charged with positive energy, she translates her experiences into detailed shapes and vivid colors, employing the irregular but meaningful patterns of indigenous artwork. An extended art meditation inspired experimentation with Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tantric traditions of circles and chakras, which eventually led to the completion of the Zen Dot Energy series in 2004. Steiger writes of her work: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Zen Dot paintings have their sources in my own life experiences, including my connection to the art of ancient cultures and my personal path of spiritual self-discovery. It is my belief that while we mostly live in our conscious thoughts, we remain largely unaware of the depths of the unconscious and the spiritual dimension of our own be-

Ultser Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Hudson River School notable Jervis McEntee receives his first-ever museum retrospective this fall at SUNY New Paltzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art. Curated by Lee A. Vedder, Jervis McEntee: Painter-Poet of the Hudson River School examines McEnteeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 40-year career and redefines his place in the history of 19th-century American landscape painting. McEntee (1828-1891) was born and died in Rondout (present day Kingston). The Catskills and the Hudson provided many of the subjects of his luminous landscape paintings. Largely self-taught but for a short period of tutelage under Frederic Chruch, McEntee embodies many of the ideals of his era, also expressed in the work of such peers and friends as Church,Â Sanford Gifford, John F. Weir, and Wothington Whittredge. The exhibition will include approximately 80 paintings and works on paper from private and public collections. Opening simultaneously at the Dorsky is Thomas Benjamin Pope: Landscapes of Newburgh and Beyond, curated by Chloe DeRocker. This exhibit showcases eight paintings by Pope from the collection of Richard and Margeurite Lease. The welltraveled Pope captured Â these scenes from the Hudson Valley, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and possibly Europe. These paintings, notes the curator, feature Popeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s distinctive and style-defining attention to atmosphere and sky. The McEntee and Pope exhibits at the Dorsky run from August 26 through December 13, with a joint opening reception on Saturday, September 12 from 5 p.m.-7 p.m. The Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art is located on the campus of the State University of New York at New Paltz.

Two Visions, Gayle Clark Fedigan, Robert Trondsen, a show opening with a reception 5 p.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, September 5 at the Mark Gruber Gallery in the New Paltz Plaza, presents very different visions of the world around us by two highly accomplished and awarded artists. Trondsen started out as a still life painter, but later turned to landscapes in the tradition of the Hudson River School, with a more contemporary painting style. Fediganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscapes and still life paintings communicate her deep creative response to all that she experiences in this life.

GARDENERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S NOTEBOOK

Did I mention the groundnuts at UMass? Hog peanuts running wild I was wrong. A few weeks ago I wrongly dissed groundnut (Apios americana) for invading my flower garden. Yes, I planted it; that was 30 years ago, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resisted my attempts at eradication for the past 28 years. The worse culprit, this year at least, is related to groundnut. Like groundnut, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a legume, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s native, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edible, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a vining plant with compound leaves. But each leaf of hog peanut (Amphicarpaea bracteata), has three egg-shaped leaflets, as compared with groundnutâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five lanceshaped leaflets. Hog peanuts produce flowers both above ground and below ground. Below ground is where the goodies are. Pods that form there enclose peanut-sized seeds that allegedly are tasty raw or cooked. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see if I can dig some up in a few weeks. Like groundnuts, hog peanuts provided food

tolerates some shade, adds nitrogen to the soil, and yields an allegedly tasty seed below ground? The problem is that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run wild over the flower bed, the fine stems and leaves attempting to smother, sometimes successfully, every plant in its path. Even non-native, invasive Japanese stilt grass and garlic mustard canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold their own against hog peanuts. Low maintenance, protection and enrichment of soil, and edible parts recommend hog peanut and groundnut to permies (permaculturalists). As with so much in permaculture, these plants perform better in theory than in practice. In humid climates, plant growth â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and not just groundnut and hog peanut â&#x20AC;&#x201D; can run rampant. Growth needs to be controlled and balanced, a job made more difficult in a permaculture â&#x20AC;&#x153;guildâ&#x20AC;? of groups of plants working together. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m all for interplanting different species to make best use of light, water, and soil resources, and form communities that resist pests â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to a point. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the opportunity, over the years, to visit the permaculture garden planted by students at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Now in its fifth year, the garden pays tribute to the compost, mulch, and sweat students put into soil preparation. The plants have grown very well. Too well, perhaps. One could say that the plants have commingled nicely; from another perspective, one could say that they are overunning each other. A blackcurrant bush or bushes has swelled into a mass of unapproachable stems 10 feet deep and wide. Chives and oregano have each taken over their areas. (How much chives or oregano can you eat? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather eat tomatoes.) Not that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m immune to such errors. A few years ago I created a very permaculturesque planting that included elderberries, seaberries, and rugose roses almost elbow

to elbow. It all looks very nice but these three shrubs all spread by suckers. I keep everything in check with elbow grease and a scytheâ&#x20AC;Śfor now, but Mother Nature is relentless. Am I? The most productive and accessible parts of the UMass garden are the beds of kale, beets, and other vegetables â&#x20AC;&#x201D; straight rows in cultivated soil. How unpermaculturalesque. Oh, I forgot to mention the groundnuts at UMass. Stems of those plants are twining around and overpowering others in their guild in an ever-widening circle. Even if the PHOTOS BY LEE REICH groundnuts could peacefully coexist with their neighbors, grubbing up the golf ball size tubers will require an inordinate amount of time and soil discombobulation. My memory fails me. Perhaps it was hog peanut rather than groundnut vines threatening their neighbors. Perhaps it was both plants. Hog peanut has been suggested for erosion control, and as a groundcover, a livestock forage, and a food for humans. My suggestion: Hog food. Turn some hogs loose in a patch, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll fatten as they clear the ground of this pernicious weed. Does anybody have a small hog for rent? Elderberry looked to be one of the most successful plants in the UMass permaculture garden. It grows fast and it grows high. My two plants, now in their third year, yielded more than four gallons of berries. And harvest, last week, was quick and easy; aggressively tickling the umbels had the berries quickly filling a basket. Elderberries can also be recommended for their flowers and the berriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; deep, blue color. Flowers open in June to dinnerplate size umbels of small, white blossoms. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re good for tea, fritters, or to flavor wine. The berries impart their good color, but little flavor, to wine, pie, and juice. (They should not be eaten uncooked or unripe.) Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit of scientific evidence than an extract or syrup of the berries can help fight flu, perhaps other ailments also. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m good at growing fruit, not cooking it, so I gave my crop to Dina Falconi who concocted a syrup using the recipe from her bookÂ Foraging & Feasting. I look forward to tasting the benefits of my horticultural and her culinary skills.Â -- Lee Reich Any gardening questions?

NATURE The Universe: Why you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know it Each day I answer letters fromÂ AstronomyÂ andÂ Old Farmers AlmanacÂ readers. I have no secretary, and reply to everyone. Most of the emails are lovely.Â But perhaps one in 20 is someone offering a theory of the universe. Last week a guy in AustraliaÂ twice phoned in the wee hours to try to talk about it.Â These people think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found a way to tie together dark energy, relativity, the big bang, planetary magnetism, and all sorts of disparate phenomena into an â&#x20AC;&#x153;explanationâ&#x20AC;? of the cosmos. Some are delusional.Â But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great that a lot of people are trying to make sense of this universe.Â In case youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re one of them, I have some good news: donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother. Save yourself the effort. The universe as a whole is not amenable to logic. You see, the thinking process uses words that symbolize specific things or events.Â If you say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;pass the saltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; everyone knows what you mean even though the word salt is not actual salt.Â The symbol always stands apart from whatever it symbolizes.Â This means that the act of thinking is fundamentally different from direct perception. If you dive into warmÂ CaribbeanÂ water that puts a smile on your face, you feel a magical experience thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite different from logically pondering the waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characteristics. Our math and science work splendidly for figuring out theÂ componentsÂ of the cosmos, like the distance to the nearest star or the make-up of Martian soil.Â But when we contemplate the universe as a whole weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in an entirely separate realm. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s different from the sum of its parts.Â Like a creature whose appearance and personality cannot be ascertained by studying its cell structure, the cosmos is a singular entity. We know this because no matter where we look, the universe is composed of the same unvarying 92 elements. Identical physical laws and constants prevail

everywhere.Â It is a oneness.Â A oneness which, in my opinion, is correlative with our consciousness or awareness.Â But letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not get too mystical.Â The point is, when we ask the simplest questions about whether the universe is infinite versus finite, eternal or had a beginning, and all other such basics, we find no satisfactory answer using language. If there was a big bang, what preceded it?Â If the farthest visible galaxies do not mark the end of the universe, what lies beyond and how could that have an end?Â Logic fails us. The unsatisfactory nature of all answers-to-date stems from using the wrong tools for the job. Despite TV cosmology shows that make it seem as if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hot on the trail of figuring it all out, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not, because anything you think regarding the underlying nature

of the universeÂ is not it. Eternity, infinity, and solipsism are not things anyone can satisfactorily visualize. Mystics like William Blake purportedly perceived the true nature of the cosmos by gazing at a grain of sand or blade of grass. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because they were perceiving directly rather than via the symbolic tools of language. Conversely, those TV cosmologists were trained in math and science. Dualistic methodology using symbols are all they know. Thus their wheels keep spinning, and the universe as a whole remains elusive.Â Of course, explaining this sort of stuff constitutes disappointing replies to

The whole thing started with an unnamed follower of Freud who separated human psychology into two categories â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Irish and non-Irish â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and then a Scorsese movie ten years ago referenced the whole idea and it went viral. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably because even though the words have the ring of an implied insult, to those of us with Irish in our heritage it sounds like a compliment. The notion of being impervious to being pigeonholed in any conventional way is quite appealing to the Irish sensibility.

For those of like mind, or those whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to play along for the day, the 14th annual Hooley on the Hudson will celebrate all things Irish on Sunday, Sept. 6 from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s T.R. Gallo Memorial Park. The Rondout historically holds a special meaning for the Irish because it was where Irish immigrants landed more than a century ago to work on the D&H Canal, forging a new life in a new country far away from

the trials of existence in their homeland. Admission to the Hooley is free. A festival map has been put together this year for the first time showing where all the events can be found; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s available in advance on the Hooleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Facebook page and at various locations throughout

ALMANAC WEEKLY

Rock doc Dr. Steve Weinman’s Shawangunk trail guide publishes fifth edition

wenty years ago, when Dr. Steve Weinman wrote his 68page non-profit pocket book A Rock with a View: Hiking, Biking and Skiing The Shawangunk Mountains, he had no idea that the trail guide would sell by the thousands and he would be able to donate over $20,000 in proceeds to Family of New Paltz, the Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund and the Natural Resources Defense Fund. Now in its fifth edition, the book — with all the classic local trails intact, like “Millbrook Mountain via Footpath,” “Sunset Path to Minnewaska,” “Stony Kill Falls” and “Bonticou Crag,” plus many others, from a leisurely stroll to a strenuous hike — has now added treks like the 15-mile trail to Mud Pond and Verkeerderkill Falls at Sam’s Point Preserve. “That’s a strikingly beautiful place. It’s a challenging combination of hiking and biking to reach. But when you get there, it’s all yours,” says Weinman, who walks/hikes/bicycles the mountains as much as possible when not working at his office, the FirstCare Walk-In Medical Center, an urgent care facility in Highland. The idea for the book came to the New Paltz native in 1995, when he was working at hospitals in Colorado. He was hiking in the Rockies when he thought about the trail guides available in all the Colorado towns, “but not in the Shawangunks at the time. Climbing routes, sure; but no one had done hiking or biking trail routes for the Gunks.” So when Weinman returned, he contacted Bob Freeston at Canal Press of Rosendale and voilà! A Rock with a View was born.

“The book is very easy to use, with concise information, not a lot of fluff. It’s slim and portable. While there are a few drawings, and now photos in the ebook version, and interesting facts on the mountains, A Rock with a View is designed to get the reader where they want to go and give them enough information to know what to expect when they got there.” And to make things even simpler, A Rock with a View is now an e-book available from Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com and at NewPaltzTrailGuide.com. “You can view the book on whatever device you have and take it to the mountain,” adds Weinman. “There is also information about crosscountry skiing, biking, and local accommodations. There is also a section on where to go when it’s crowded, which it can be on summer weekends. “ The physical book is available at the Mohonk Mountain House, Rock and Snow and the Inquiring Minds Bookstore in New Paltz. It’s also stocked at the Mountain Harbor Deli in Gardiner, Handmade and More in New Paltz. – Rich Corozine

FOSTER HOMES NEEDED FOR KITTENS AND PREGNANT CATS.The WOODSTOCK FERAL CAT PROJECT is a local not for profit organization committed to reducing future feral cat populations through spay/neuter. We often find orphaned kittens who need a loving home until they are old enough to be adopted. Some orphaned kittens are so young that they require bottle feeding. We affectionately call them â&#x20AC;&#x153;bottle babiesâ&#x20AC;?. We recently placed three pregnant cats in three wonderful homes. The cats gave birth and when the kittens are weaned (no longer nursing), we will look to find loving homes for the kittens and their mothers.
