| Arts Newsletter Tuesday | | Hooray! You've survived the turkey and trimmings, made it through "Black Friday" at the stores and virtually survived "Cyber Monday." That leaves "Arts Newsletter Tuesday" as the only significant hurdle for the next seven days. Congratulations. :-)
This week's round-up of arts-related news asks questions such as "Does Size Really Matter" in Amherst, proposes "Santacide" in Northampton, heralds the opening of a new Arts Lounge in Haydenville, pursues the Light in Southampton, warns us of the impending deadline for Massachusetts' Artist Fellowship applications, and braces us for the next weeks' Art Walk Easthampton. Oh My!
There's also news below from the Health Connector Authority on the health insurance requirements for all Massachusetts residents. Most of their current workshops are on the fringe of the Valley, but I'll write them to see if we can coax them into Valley's lowlands so more of us have a chance to attend.
Got news? Remember to submit it by mid-day Monday in order to make it into the newsletter. Best wishes to all.

Theresa Rock is a painter in Pelham, MA. She enjoys the freedom painting gives her to develop and experiment with organic forms. This show "Of Earth and Sky" represents her work from the past two years. All of the paintings are extracted from natural elements and done with acrylic paint on canvas. The older works in the series have more concrete forms, while the most recent are a purer form of organic abstraction.
Caitlin Waugh is a graduate from Hampshire College. She has a studio in the Pioneer Valley and the focus of her work is stained galass. She will be displaying a flight of three-dimensional hanging glass landscapes. Small, simple, and geometric, these hanging pieces create dynamic spaces and backdrops across which tiny silouttes of birds fly. |

| New World Theater Presents "Mestiza Power" |

Start Date: Thursday November 29th, 2007
End Date: Friday November 30th, 2007
Location Name: Bowker Auditorium
Address: Stockbridge Hall, UMass Amherst
City, ST: Amherst, MA
Website: www.newworldtheater.org

On November 29 and 30, in Bowker Auditorium, New WORLD Theater will present "Mestiza Power" by Concepción León Mora and the Sa'as Tun theater company. This poetic and powerfully performed piece is a testimonial that portrays the lives and the dignity of contemporary Mayan women from the Yucatán, Mexico.
The artists recount childhood memories, educational experiences, culture, and current issues facing indigenous women through a series of monologues and interviews conducted with street vendors in Mérida, the capitol of Yucatán and other rural areas of the state. These stories, ranging from domestic violence to street life to mystical practice, paint a portrait of the faces, the thoughts, and the voices of today's Mayan women. New WORLD Theater has commissioned Harley Erdman, of the UMass Department of Theater, to create the first English translation of "Mestiza Power" which will be presented as supertitles during the Spanish language performance.
"Mestiza Power" will be presented at Bowker Auditorium in Stockbridge Hall at the UMass Amherst on Thursday, November 29 and Friday, November 30 at 8 p.m. Tickets for the general audience are $15; $8 for seniors and low income patrons; $5 for students with valid I.D. Tickets can be purchased through the Fine Arts Center Box Office by calling 1.800.999.UMAS or 413.545.2511. For more information, please call New WORLD Theater at 413.545.1972 or visit us at www.newworldtheater.org. |

"What If?" this question gives birth to every piece, these words begin the transformation of a blank piece of paper into a window to a new world, familiar, yet unknown. Every time this happens I get this feeling of looking at the world for the first time, with fresh eyes without the curtain of routine hiding my surroundings. The need to preserve this feeling is what motivates me to paint. My goal is to never lose this sense of amazement for the world that surrounds me. I find myself drawn to day to day scenes, objects and places that I see everyday before my eyes until they become intriguing. I like to observe and analyze these "familiar" scenes from unexpected angles and unusual positions, even uncomfortable ones, until they become unknown, new, intriguing to my eyes. When I'm painting I try to capture the colors that appear as reflections, lasting just one second, shadows that appear in the corner of my eye but disappear when I try to look
at them. It is when they come together as one: shadows and reflections, that the world around me is forgotten and its possibilities begin, once again, to amaze me.

| Folk singer Chris Wilhelm has a voice that rings with a certain vulnerable sense of conviction. And indeed, this Boston-based singer/songwriter has seen a lot during his 16-year music career: In between his relocations from Hudson, New York to Albany and now to Boston, he has spent time busking for change in subway stations, singing open-mic nights in coffee shops, and altogether honing his delicate craft. His current songs reach a rare level of emotional urgency, steeped in a palpable sense of hope and understanding. He began his music career, he says, as a child of 10 in Hudson, NY, making his first guitar out of a piece of cardboard with strings drawn on with permanent marker, so he could play along with his favorite music. He made the decision to make music his primary focus after moving to Albany in 2000. But that childhood sense of innocent musical wonder hasn’t seemed to change over the years, as he is happiest to live his life simply:
traveling around town-to-town spreading his message of breezy acoustic melodies that echo the best of early Bob Dylan and American blues and roots music. |

Projected in the gallery as part of the exhibit 'Concrete Poetry', new collage paintings by Stuart Cudlitz, this is a rare screening of the Rock Hall Documentary Mural by Director Cudlitz and Editor Lili Cunningham. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Museum commissioned this video/audio collage installation as it's main video wall exhibit and it is still shown as part of the permanent collection.
“Though much of the rock hall is about artifacts, the museum’s centerpiece is a work of art…. a spectacular art installation that draws as much from the traditions of the great muralists as from video.” Joanna Connors Film Critic, The Cleveland Plain Dealer August 1995

Maggie Nowinski is showing three large scale collage paintings that are aesthetically and conceptually inspired by the (un)natural disintigration of billboards. The paintings have been constructed through a build and reduce process she calls stick, peel, stick, peel.
Each painting has a different theme; pornography in relation to weekly sale grocery circulation adds, babies in relation to blueprints, and semiotic deconstruction in relation to personal sign systems. The paintings are playful and layered.
They are on view at Open Space (outside of the artists' studio) at the Paragon Arts and Industries building in Easthampton at 150 Pleasant St. The paintings will be up through mid December and are priced to sell. Her studio will also be open for viewers of work in progess and other work will be for sale at discount prices!

In my Quantiference work, I use an emotion that I cannot understand or handle, and using a visual language of pseudo-math and symbols, create something beautiful that can perhaps give me insight into the original feeling. I do not expect people to look at my work and understand what I am feeling. I rely on my artistic skills to create something that is visually appealing and compelling to the point where understanding the meaning is secondary. The art becomes an independent object of the emotions behind it.
My pleasure in creating these pieces comes from working with that tension between maintaining the imagery and creating a work that is pleasing or exciting to anyone who sees it. |

The concept that time and space are merely an illusion gives rise to a variety of thoughts and emotions that fill me as i create my art. Are we here at all? And if we are not here, then what exactly is it that i see, feel, touch, taste, and smell on a daily basis? If the world is a stage, then perhaps some of the most important people here are the ones who are working the lights, changing the sets, and drawing the curtain Behind The Scenes.

I've just returned to Western Massachusetts after spending three years living on the Big Island of Hawai'i. The island offers vast barren fields of black lava and dripping tropical rainforests, fiery molten lava flows and rolling green hills, majestic snow-capped mountains and sandy beaches. Huge hapu'u ferns share space in the green jungle with twisted ohia trees, while endangered green sea turtles rest on white or black sand beaches. My photographs try to capture the amazing contrasts of this stunningly beautiful place in the world, often from unusual perspectives. |

Bee Emily is a Nature and Wildlife Photographer who now calls Western Massachusetts her home. She was born and raised in a small town in Southern Indiana where she was introduced to all the beauty of the natural world at a young age. She fondly recalls the sunrise and sunset trips to the nearby Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge with her Grandmother to count the deer and she credits this to developing her photographer's 'eye'.
Trained as a Registered Nurse, she practices as a Psychiatric Nurse in many different settings. She finds that her passion for her photography balances the demands of nursing. A self-taught photographer, she now enjoys being able to share her images with others and has fans and collectors throughout the country and internationally. Bee says 'There is nothing like having someone look at one of my images and say 'Wow, this is beautiful'. She also states 'My hope as a Photographer is to get people to slow down, breathe and take in the beauty of this glorious world.' |

Having been a systems analyst/programmer and designer for many years, I ventured into the world of art, my first and most cherished love. I don't remember a day going by in my life that I have not been the happiest when I was creating. This applied to my artwork and my systems design. Sixteen years ago, I decided to take a different path. I bought and operated an art store for several years in the state of Massachusetts. At that time, I also began studying anatomy, portraiture, memory drawing and printmaking techniques with Donald Wilhelm, formerly of the Student Art League in New York City. Studies in pastel and oil techniques with Jeff Kern, twice Copley Award (Boston) winner featured in 'Yankee Magazine'. Since that time I have been very involved with my fine art, whether I am involved in a workshop or privately teaching several high school students.
I strive to bring out the best in myself and my students. This can only be done if your heart and soul are firmly committed to the creative process. My students possess this devotion, as do I. My philosophy is to utilize the mind's eye in filtering the extraordinary from the ordinary and recreating those mental images onto surfaces. I try to take the viewer away to perhaps a peaceful, perhaps an even more turbulant time. Whichever it is, the purpose is to move the viewer, to please the viewer. For if artwork cannot achieve this, what would be the point?
I must quote, perhaps not per word, something I recently heard by a very famous director. Steven Sodenberg, upon accepting his academy award for best director lamented - He would save his 'thank you's' and deliver them in person - He then proceeded to implore any one who has any creativeness in them to indeed create, even if only for 1/2 hour each day, for you owe it to yourself and to the betterment of mankind. This quite profound statement mirrored my views and thoughts.
I immensely enjoy any of the arts - be it theatre, music, etc. We must never lose sight of our innerness and need for the beauty that humans can create. We must try to accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative more successfully than we are currently doing in today's society.
We must never lose touch with our ability to capture the rare fondness that is apparent in all life......to take the indescribable inner emotion to a level that everyone can understand, that being of substance. |

Please drop by my open studio in the Old Railroad Station to see completed pieces and works-in-progress.
It is important that my landscapes in oils and watercolors convey a sense of place. Nature is my influence but then it becomes something more. I don't want my work to capture the exactness of nature or my brush marks to be predictable. I have been told for years that I have an unnatural landscape palette. Color is important to me, but I also am intrigued by the absence of color as in my nocturnal moonscapes. I want to embrace a mood for the piece, and challenge the viewer to look deeper. In the process of painting on location or in my studio I strive for the balance of when to intervene and when to leave well enough alone.
Every day I am thankful for having adventures around the world that allow me to experience and convey that sense of place. I have taught workshops in Tuscany, Italy, Burgundy, France, and in the US Virgin Islands. I have met many fascinating people of all ages, including artists who have enhanced my life and work with their personal stories. I invite you to observe my watercolors and oils with their open vistas, storm swept skies, full mysterious moons, and contemplative moods. It is my hope that you will experience the world I envision through the fusion of paint and experience. |

Through workshops and other festive events, Marie Westburg facilitates creative experiences to children, families and adults. Ms. Westburg aims to build community connections through shared art adventures and to help people tap into their "inner ArtStar".
Workshops focus on exploration of materials, having fun while learning and expressing oneself in new ways. All levels of experience are welcome including trained artists, non-artists, beginners and people who identify as "not creative". Workshops can also be individualized for small groups, parties or one-on-one. Ms. Westburg's workshops provide people with a very comfortable space to explore and express their creativity. People are invited to work on communal art projects, break free- of self-judgements, turn art making into a social event with friends, and ultimately build an artist identity that is positive and rewarding.
Marie Westburg, Artist/Founder of ArtStar, has been working with people of all ages and backgrounds making art for the last 18 years. Through creating ArtStar she hopes to nurture community connections and build a place to share her creative passions with others. |

CONSIDER THE CUP
That one right in front of you. Maybe you’ve just bought it and added it to your collection. Or think about an old favorite at home; perhaps an intimate part of your breakfast ritual.
If your appreciation was initially it's appearance, consider the potter's aesthetic decisions; shape, size, proportion, color and decoration. What about its tactile qualities? Consider the unaccountable failures and sweet breakthroughs that led to this wonderful vessel of yours.

December 8, 2007 - January 30, 2008
RECEPTION, SLIDESHOW AND TALK by MIKE KIRBY:
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2-4 PM
Mark Majeski photographed the Northampton State Hospital buildings in 2002, when they had been unused since the early 1990s. The result is a series of exterior and interior views showing the buildings' architecture and how they were affected by years of neglect. The color images include the former theater, kitchen, cafeteria, visiting area, doctor's office/apothecary, among others. The buildings and rooms, even while uninhabited and in a deteriorated condition, give the viewer a sense of the people and activities that took place there during a period of over 100 years.
Twenty-seven 10"x15" archival prints made from the original 35mm negatives will be on exhibit. After the exhibit is over, the prints will become part of the library's Special Collections of historic photographs where they will be accessible for future research or any interested member of the community to explore. In addition, the process of creating the archival prints will involve digitizing the images, so they can be cataloged and put into an online Virtual Exhibit with Past Perfect museum software.
On December 8, the Library will host a public reception and slideshow of additional images by Mark Majeski, and a talk by local author Mike Kirby -- author of Back Row, Back Ward -- on the history of the State Hospital and the plans for redevelopment of the Hospital site. |
