How did we eve get along without the Internet? Turns out not very well. It's wonderful when you have it and awkward without it. This week's issue suffered an itty bitty delay when the connection went down. Howling loudly doesn't help either. I know that for a fact.
The Pioneer Valley art world ofers many events and opportunities this week. Be sure to check out this Saturday's Art Walk Easthampton. Spring is bringing out a lot more options for us all. Enjoy! |

| One thing I miss during the winter months is color. A hearty old New England winter, such as this has been, gives us plenty of rain, snow, ice, and cold, but still thinks nothing of taking away most of the colors of the spectrum. If you'd forgotten what natural colors look like, are equally as ready for this winter to go on its monochrome way, or would just like to take a few minutes to see the flowers, I've got just the collection of colorful images for you, fresh cropped from this year's Smith College Bulb Show. |

'Untold Stories & Native Voices'
Works by Peter McLean, Nayana Glazier, Courtney M Leonard & Dan Loudfoot.
April 1 - 30, 2008
Nashawannuck Gallery, which draws its name from our country's indigenous people, means 'valley of the little river.' The gallery will give voice to the untold stories of our native people.
Dan Loudfoot (Pequot tribe) documents in photographs a performance meant to evoke his sense of being set adrift from his roots. His photographs show him with the words, 'I lost my language, I lost my tribe,' taped across his mouth as he stands at a phone booth on the streets of New York City. Dan will also install an audience-participation piece so that gallery visitors can pretend to be American Natives.

In Conjunction with the 'Untold Stories and Native Voices,' Putumayo Music has contributed door prizes of its international music collection.
Featured music at this event will be Putumayo's 'Native American Odyssey.' Most of the music on this collection reflects the way in which indigenous peoples incorporate the music around them from the predominant culture and, by blending in elements of their tradition, make it their own. The main goal of this compilation, as with all Putumayo World Music recordings, is to present a selection of great music which will hopefully entertain, surprise, and inspire you to explore even further. |

Nashawannuck Gallery, which draws its name from our country's indigenous people, means "valley of the little river." The gallery will give voice to the untold stories of our native people.
Peter McLean, the only non-Native American in this exhibit, has given voice to their cause by illustrating in large-scale charcoal drawings the lost tales and crimes against indigenous people. He was amazed how the 1637 Pequot massacre in Mystic, CT, where 300 - 400 inhabitants, mostly elders and children, was never mentioned in our early educational American History books.
Nashawannuck Gallery brings Peter's masterful drawings from his recent exhibition at Trinity College together with Dan, Courtney and Nayana artwork from their Native American exhibition at Brown University to for this insightful exhibit about Native American issues. |

Fiber art with a twist as the Garden of Eden is recreated out of fiber art such as quilting, knitting and crouching. Trees grow out of trunks and branches knit in purl and leaves of splendor out of vintage sari materials. use of quilting and knitting in nontraditional ways is exciting and refreshing, in a world full of computer generated art and communication. The forms in this show are organic and hearkens back to the true Americana.

Matt Johnson will exhibit several of his forged steel sculptures during this month's Art Walk. Coinciding with Denis Luzuriaga's exhibit, so there is a lot going on at the Old Town Hall this month!
Here's Matt's statement: For me, the artmaking process is as much an endeavor of the body as it is one of the mind. Issue and imagery fade behind the event of the art coming-into-being. Manual manipulation at the threshold of achievability is the desirable working condition. No assistants, no excuses, no complaining...just real work accomplishing real tasks. All this eventually leading to a visual entity from which there might be gleaned some elevated perception or momentary amusement.

The first in a series of three site specific AUDIO/VIDEO installations. A collaborative project that uses projected moving and still images and sound. Supported in part by the Easthampton Cultural Council. RAINDATE: Saturday May 10th. Projection begins at7pm at OLD TOWN HALL 43 Main St.
The steps of Old Town Hall provide the entrance and exit, a transitional space that marks a before and an after an event occurs or a purpose is realized. Steps are a portal to community, to acceptance, to futures, to legal processes that effect identity and a sense of citizenship.
The architecture of a building reflects and responds to the communities that inhabit it.

| Once upon a time he was famous as the funny bone of EHS's class of '79. Then A.J. Wiernasz scoured the planet as a Hindu monk in search of India's mystical... Meaning of Life. Now for the first time, his findings are revealed. The Dream Catcher (aka 'orbitron' or 'gyro') was designed by NASA engineers to train astronauts for work in zero gravity. 'The Dream Catcher, like life itself, is a Quantum Mathematical problem you solve with your body and mind', Wiernasz says. Come and experience the inner bliss that Himalayan mystics have pursued for lifetimes at Eastwork's Saturday April 12 (weather permitting). There will be no charge for Dream Catcher rides but donations or tips will allow Mr. Wiernasz to purchase bread and water. |

The first in a series of three site specific audio/video installations. A collaborative project that uses projected moving and still images and sound. Supported in part by the Easthampton Cultural Council. RAINDATE: Saturday May 10th. Projection begins as soon as the sun goes down.
This AV project attempts to listen to the intersections of the footsteps from the past, the footsteps of now and perhaps the footsteps to come.
The steps provide the entrance and exit, a transitional space that marks a time before and time after an event occurs or a purpose is realized. The multiple functions that Town Hall has provided over the years are varied.
Steps are a portal to community, to acceptance, to futures, to legal processes that effect identity and a sense of citizenship.
The sound of footsteps on granite stairs indicates something about the building that is being entered or exited. Granite is important. The building is a location that houses offices for official business - where one enters and experiences an identity shift from Machine Worker, Builder, Performer, Farmer, Mother, Salesperson to Citizen of the Municipality of Easthampton. The building is about what goes on inside and individuals take back to the community what happens inside the building. |

Event: Accounts of Events: Narrative Works by Connecticut Valley Artists

Reception: Tuesday April 8th, 2008 @ 6:00 PM

The Connecticut Valley is home to a wide range of cartoonists; comic-book and comic-strip artists, writers, and publishers; and scholars commenting on cartoons and comics. This group exhibition shows the narrative art of cartoon and cartoon-related artists in New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Western Massachusetts.
“Accounts of Events” aims to present a number of varied works which ask us to consider the ways in which we understand both narrative and reading. We are taught to associate words and pictures, but what happens when such things move out of the realm of how we're taught to consider comics and into a more explicit narrative structure? How does this act shift what we understand about 'reading' and about 'narrative'?
“Accounts of Events” is a group show, exhibiting at Greenfield Community College Downtown Center in April and May. Participants include Greenfield illustrator Sarah Adam, Recorder editorial cartoonist E. J. Barnes, humorous glass painter Helena Dooley, "Looking for a Face Like Mine" author Prof. William H. Foster III, '60s underground cartoonist Gary Hallgren, "Dr. Birdley" writer and artist Nevin Katz, Nickelodeon Magazine illustrator Mark Martin, "Pop Culture's Kids" creator Mark Stacy, Trees & Hills Comics Group co-founder Colin Tedford, and autobiographical comix artist Anne Thalheimer.
GCC Downtown Center is open to the public Monday through Thursday 8 a.m.-- 9 p.m. and Friday 8 a.m. -- 4 p.m. |

In case you missed them the first time or wish to hear them again, The Gallery invites you to the 7th Annual Women in History Month Photo Exhibit Awards presentation. The winning images are now on display through the month of April.
The winning images(in alphabetical order)are:
"Cooperative Work" by Judy Cummings, Deerfield
"Erin, Sophy and Mural" by Betsy Feick, Northampton
"Her Barn" by Jean Stabell, New Salem
"Life Dances Over Death" by Sabrina Herman, Easthampton
"Young Girl Singing" by Jackie Cooper, Ashfield
No other local venue has committed to honoring women with annual opportunities to be seen an heard. This year's theme is Environmental Portraiture. "An environmental portrait supplies enough details with props and choice of background to share with and present to the viewer something about the lifestyle of the person. In an environmental portrait, the subject is photographed at home, at the office, or on location, whichever best portrays the person's story. Far from the posed safe studio portrait with a seamless background, an environmental portrait positions the subject amid everyday objects of her life." The subject may live anywhere in the world.
The Gallery is dedicated to artists telling their story...this month artists are telling her-story! |

and an opportunity to meet, greet and introduce yourself to artists specializing in photography. The Gallery and Learning Center believe we need to tell our stories to continue the healing process. Society and life often position artists in a situation where there is no voice. This is countered by providing a venue for several years now, inviting the community to these Sunday afternoon Gallery Talks. The Talks have confirmed our identity, motivated us and have given us an insight into the artist's story...with no two stories being alike! Photographer or not, these Talks are targeted those who care to listen!
