Cordell Cordaro’s colorful crowd of characters seem to have walked out of many different types of story-realms. If you look closely, you will begin to notice his subjects are less deliberate individuals than vignettes of familiar-to-youth, intimate moments bubbling just beneath the playful adventure stories or the glossy, fashionable veneers of the elegant life. With studied skill, Cordell conveys a sense of fragile beauty born within each figure.

Stylistically, Cordell’s party-scene works nod to Egon Schiele’s elegant waifs, in which anatomical distortions convey emotional truths, but his gestural brushstrokes and playful, mythic injections make his prolific portfolio firmly his own. An increasing master of several media, Cordell’s work includes paintings, ink drawings, and combinations of the two. His beloved oeuvre has found patrons across the world. Cordell participates in shows in New York City and Florida, and his work has also reached audiences in California, Greece, Singapore, and the UK.

Dear Friends,

You can also see new works from featured artists

Laura Wilder and Sarah Rutherford on the 2015 Auction!

St. Monci’s first exposure to art began in the streets of Puerto Rico, where he spent most of his childhood. He was immediately drawn to the transformative qualities of graffiti and street art and quickly immersed himself in the culture.

It wasn’t until he returned to the States that he began to pursue and study art in its many forms. He eventually earned an MA in Studio Art at SUNY Oswego where he began to evolve and grow beyond his graffiti roots. His current work examines the most fundamental qualities of making and seeing; in color, form and composition, while still employing a certain street aesthetic. He currently resides and works in Rochester, NY. Murals by St. Monci can be seen in Rochester at The Little Theatre, 1975 Gallery and in the Southwedge among other places.

Shawnee grew up in the Finger Lakes around her grandmother’s porcelain doll business and sculpture studio.

It was the beginning of her interest in drawing figures and portraits. After graduating from Pratt Institute in 2008 she spent time in California and eventually decided to come back to Rochester to work. Since then, she has created a body of work that has progressed in the development of theme and style with each new piece.

Currently she is looking to focus on large scale painting and mural work.

Murals by Shawnee can be seen in Rochester on the side of Fuego Coffee and The Bug Jar.

This month marks the 40th anniversary of the fall of Saigon and the end of the Vietnam War. To honor our veterans, we are proud to present the Academy Award-nominated film Last Days in Vietnam.

We will first offer a free screening of the film at the Little Theatre on April 21 at 7 p.m. (it will broadcast on WXXI-TV on Tuesday, April 28 at 9 p.m). WXXI recently convened a group of Board Members and community leaders to form a Veterans Affairs Task Force. Its mission is to identify the most pressing needs and issues facing veterans and their families in the Greater Rochester and surrounding areas and to make recommendations about ways that WXXI and The Little’s programming and outreach can help address those needs. By connecting veterans to resources and information, WXXI can help strengthen the entire community. You’ll be hearing more about this initiative in coming months.

If you had a chance to hear the pilot episode of Unleashed: The Pet Show, which premiered last month on AM 1370, WRUR, and WEOS (Geneva), please let me know what you think. The pilot episode, hosted by WXXI’s Beth Adams and Penfield Veterinary Hospital’s Dr. Erik Herrema, shared stories of remarkable pets and their owners and invited listeners to call in with their own pet stories and questions. You can also listen to it online at WXXI.org/unleashed and then share your thoughts in the comment section on that page.

We hope that Unleashed can become a regular series, but we need the community’s feedback to help make that happen.

I’ve been hearing from a lot of you about the season finale of Downton Abbey. Variety’s TV columnist, Brian Lowry, said “the fifth-season finale offered a welcome reminder of just Norm Silverstein how splendid the show can be – warm, funny and emotional on a dazzling assortment of fronts.”

I have to agree with him. Julian Fellows worked his magic and moved many storylines forward for a satisfying end. (If only we didn’t have to wait nine months for the next season to begin!)

NEWS&EVENTS

Q&A WITH A WXXI Underwriter In 1970 Frank J. Annese founded Annese & Associates, Inc., as a company selling technologies like modems and multiplexers in Herkimer, N.Y. Upon his retirement in late 2008, ownership transferred to his four daughters. Annese is now officially recognized as a women-owned business enterprise. In 2015 Annese celebrates 45 years in business with more than 120 employees across New York State. Ray Apy, President and CEO, provides insights below on how the company has evolved from a manufacturer’s rep into a value-added reseller, a managed service provider, and an integrator of cloud-based solutions.

Q. What would you like the WXXI audience to know about Annese & Associates?

A. Annese has enjoyed steady growth as a result of a keen focus on our employees, culture, and clients. We go to great lengths to provide a rewarding working environment. Our founder always said, “Take care of your employees and they will take care of your customers.” We still live by that philosophy today. Annese specializes in technology systems for corporations, education, healthcare, and government entities in the areas of cloud solutions, network infrastructure, collaboration, data center and virtualization, and all the requisite professional consulting and managed services associated with each. We proudly closed 2014 at just over $100M in revenue, and continue to reinvest in the business to bring new products, services, and capabilities to the forefront.

A commitment to high employee and customer satisfaction will always be my top priority.

Q. How would you describe cloud infrastructure to those unfamiliar with the terminology?

A. The cloud is the next wave of centralized computing. Cloud infrastructure contains all the hardware and software components — servers, storage, and operating systems — needed to meet the computing requirements of a hosted application or storage delivery model. The fundamentals of the cloud can be found in a video Q&A on our company’s blog: www.annese.com/cloudprimer Q. Any suggestions for young entrepreneurs in this field?

A. Focus your creative talent on finding simple solutions to the complexity and cost of the “standard” IT delivery paradigms.

Ray Apy, President and CEO

Throughout her four-decade career, music superstar Annie Lennox has defied categorization, diving into blues, soul, folk and pop to create songs that captivate and transcend boundaries. In her latest album, Nostalgia, Lennox reveals yet another dimension to her formidable talent.

Although jazz is not the genre for which she is best known, she could no longer resist the magnetic pull of some of the most memorable melodies and lyrics from the American Songbook— songs like “Summertime,” “Georgia on My Mind,” “You Belong to Me,” “I Cover the Waterfront” and “God Bless the Child.” Lennox’s sublime interpretations bring a hypnotic intimacy to these timeless classics.

TVHIGHLIGHTS

This 2015 Academy Award-nominated documentary chronicles the chaotic final days of the Vietnam War as the North Vietnamese Army closed in on Saigon. With the clock ticking and the city under fire, American officers on the ground faced a moral dilemma: follow official policy and evacuate U.S. citizens and their dependents only, or ignore orders and save the men, women, and children they had come to value and love in their years in Vietnam. At the risk of their careers and possible courtmartial, a handful of individuals took matters into their own hands.

Engaging in unsanctioned and often makeshift operations, they waged a desperate effort to evacuate as many South Vietnamese as possible.

TAXED OFF

In this one-hour special, investigative journalist and public radio producer Audrey Quinn gathers elected officials, tax experts, and individual citizens to explore the grand experiment that is the U.S tax system. It examines how three state governors changed the tax codes in their states, how state taxes are used to woo new residents, how corporate taxes affect American businesses abroad and tax revenue at home, how state and federal income taxes affect American families, and the possible changes to the system.

TAXED OFF airs SUNDAY, APRIL 5 AT 9PM ON AM 1370

AM 1370 Specials INTELLIGENCE SQUARED US:

SHOULD THE U.S. ADOPT THE “RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN” ONLINE? SUNDAY, APRIL 12 AT 9PM ON AM 1370 In 2014, the European Union’s Court of Justice determined that individuals have a right to be forgotten, “the right — under certain conditions — to ask search engines to remove links with personal information about them.” In a half year following the Court’s decision, Google received over 180,000 removal requests. Of those reviewed and processed, 40.5% were granted. Was this ruling a blow to free speech and public information, or a win for privacy and human dignity?

BURN: THE ADAPTORS SUNDAY, APRIL 19 AT 9PM ON AM 1370 Hosted by public radio veterans Alex Chadwick and Flora Lichtman, The Adaptors chronicles how people are adapting to climate change.

Adaptors are all around us: from the farmers and coastal-dwellers finding new ways to work and live, to the scientists thinking outside the box about energy, to corporate leaders bringing new technologies to market, to the garage tinkerers and DIY inventors dreaming up the next big thing in green living.

INTELLIGENCE SQUARED US:

HAS THE PRESIDENT EXCEEDED HIS AUTHORITY BY WAGING WAR WITHOUT CONGRESS? SUNDAY, APRIL 26 AT 9PM ON AM 1370 The President has launched a sustained, long-term military campaign against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. But did he have constitutional power to do so? The Constitution carefully divides the war powers of the United States between Congress and the President.

Did he exceed his authority and violate the Constitution?

THE LITTLE UNDERGROUND FILM SERIES On Friday, April 3 and Saturday, April 4, The Little is proud to present The Little Underground Film Series, celebrating visionaries, agitators, and revolutionaries in the art of filmmaking. The Little staff loves to find these films so you don’t have to!

Kumiko the Treasure Hunter Friday April 3, 7:00 p.m.

General admission: $8.00 with discount for seniors, students, and Little members In this darkly comedic odyssey, Academy Award nominee Rinko Kikuchi stars as Kumiko, a frustrated office worker whose imagination transcends the confines of her mundane life.

When she watches a film and believes she’s found a clue about cash buried in North Dakota, she sets off on a dangerous adventure unlike anything she’s seen in the movies.

Hausu

(with live accompaniment by the Andrew Alden Ensemble) Friday, April 3, 10:00 p.m.

General admission: $10, with discount for seniors, students and Little members Nobuhiko Obayashi’s 1977 film Hausu is a psychedelic ghost tale following a schoolgirl traveling to her ailing aunt’s creaky country home, where she comes face to face with many ghoulish surprises. The Andrew Alden Ensemble will accompany this film with live music, written specifically for Hausu – just like in the glory days of silent film, with a Little twist!

Short Circuit Films Shorts Program

Over Your Cities Grass Will Grow

Free and open to the public!

Short Circuit: Series 1 represents a cross-section of some of the most daring and interesting films being made independently and completely outside of the mainstream of cinema. The films and filmmakers presented here offer a glimpse at the future of underground, independent cinema and the filmmakers’ passion, experimentation, and spirit of resistance to the status quo.

General Admission: $8 with discounts for seniors, students and Little members In 1993, artist Anselm Kiefer left Germany for La Ribaute, a derelict silk factory in the South of France. In 2000 he began constructing a series of elaborate installations there.

Like a strange, sprawling village, La Ribaute is composed of old industrial buildings and working studios that link to a network of underground tunnels dug out by Kiefer. This film tells the story of his artistic process.

Saturday, April 4 at 3:30 p.m.

Saturday, April 4 at 7:00 p.m.

RENOWNED COLUMBIA PROFESSOR

JAMES HANSEN COMING TO the LITTLE theatre On April 20 at 6:30 p.m., The Little is hosting a screening of indie film Future Weather, followed by a talk by renowned Columbia professor and climate expert James Hansen, Ph.D. This screening and talk are part of The Little’s Science on Screen series, a national program in which theaters pair films with talks by science and technology experts.

About Dr. Hansen: Dr. James Hansen, formerly director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, is Adjunct Professor and at Columbia University’s Earth Institute, where he directs a program in Climate Science, Awareness and Solutions.

He has won over 40 awards for his work, including the NASA Distinguished Medal and the Center for International Environmental Law’s Frederick R. Anderson Award for Outstanding Contributions to Addressing Climate Change.

About the film: Lauduree is a 13-year-old loner, passionate about nature and obsessed with ecological disaster. Greta, her grandmother, is a fiery nurse jaded by alcohol and disappointment. When Lauduree is abruptly abandoned by her dreamer single mom, she decides to take survival into her own hands, forcing her and Greta to learn to trust each other and leap into the unknown.

India is surging with global ambition. But beyond the luxury hotels surrounding Mumbai airport lies a makeshift slum, full of people with plans of their own.

On Thursday, April 2 at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday, April 4 at 12:00 p.m., The Little is proud to present the National Theatre Live production of Behind the Beautiful Forevers.

Zehrunisa and her son Abdul aim to recycle enough rubbish to fund a proper house.

Sunil, 12 and stunted, wants to eat until he’s as tall as Kalu the thief. Asha seeks to steal government anti-poverty funds to turn herself into a “first-class person,” while her daughter Manju intends to become the slum’s first female graduate.

Katherine Boo spent three years in Annawadi recording the lives of its residents. From her uncompromising book, winner of the National Book Award for Non-Fiction in 2012, David Hare has fashioned a tumultuous play on an epic scale.

NT Live is really something to see. The best theatre performances from London’s West End are recorded with cameras positioned throughout the theatre, ensuring Little audiences get the best seat in the house every time.

This play contains strong language and some scenes of violence. It’s suitable for children 14 and over.
