SUMMARY:"chatter"
DESCRIPTION:“chatter\,” an exhibition by George Raggett and Pilar Conde\, opens October 6th\, 2017 with an artists’ reception from 5:00 – 7:00pm. The event is free and open to the public. \nFor this exhibition\, Raggett and Conde’s work examines – literally – the structural devices of discourse.  The works illuminate\, privilege\, and fetishize formal elements of our current communication systems.  Unlike email\, texting\, and twitter feeds\, the artworks lack actual words\, phrases\, sentences\, or questions\, instead remaining open to interpretation.  Under the influence of minimalism\, they slow down today’s hectic pace of chatter.  Different materials\, textures and colors\, create different moods; expanding the emotional range of the exhibition.  From rendering texting as “solids\,” to the punctuation of a Spanish language question framing a “gateway\,” the often harsh politics of today’s twitter rants and anti-immigrant rhetoric hover provocatively in the background of each piece. \nThe exhibition will run through November 3rd\, 2017. \nAbout the Artists: \nMarried in 2001\, Raggett and Conde currently reside in Brooklyn\, New York. This is their second joint exhibition\, the first for Welsh/Beck Gallery (former Richard Neutra offices) in the Silver Lake region of Los Angeles.\nGeorge Raggett received his BA from UC Santa Barbara’s College of Creative Studies\, and MFA from Bard College.  He has exhibited widely\, including the Hammer Museum\, Happy Lion Gallery\, Cirrus Gallery and ACME in Los Angeles; and La Mama\, Triple Candie\, White Columns in New York CIty. \nPilar Conde received her BA from Virginia Commonwealth University\, MFA from Columbia  University\, and attended the Skowhegan Residency program.  She has exhibited widely\, including Claremont University\, Cirrus Gallery\, and Kristi Engle Gallery in Los Angeles; and PS1 MOMA\, Socrates Sculpture Park\, and Soloway in New York City. \nPictured:  “Awkward Conversation 2”  – George Raggett \n  \n

SUMMARY:Monterey County Artists Open Studio Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Carl Cherry Center for the Arts will be participating in the 2017 Monterey County Artists Open Studio Tour\, an annual self-guided tour of artist studios and exhibition spaces\, on September 23rd and 24th from  11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. This year\, the exhibit will include sculptures\, mosaics\, paintings ceramics\, and etchings by local artists Vivienne Riggio\, Carole Pavlo\, and Christine Watten. The event is free\, and open to the public. \nRiggio’s contributions to the exhibit include a distinctive body of work   influenced by the Italian Renaissance\, Charles James\, and what she describes as “outpourings from the ocean and nature’s leftovers.” Her signature shapes are torsos and bustiers\, given form through three media:  sculptures\, mosaics\, and two-dimensional acrylics. \nAmong the selected works to be featured by Pavlo are “twin” bronze sculptures expressing grief and sorrow at their most primal levels. Also on display will be her moving black and white etching of the Madonna and child\, abstract oils and acrylics\, and landscape art\, revealing the range and depth of this artist’s works. \nWatten’s paintings reflect her fascination with the contrast of forms\,  shadow\, and light ever present in the California landscape. The inspiration for her other art forms\,  glass and clay\, comes from her work with plants as a landscaper\, and her love of folk art and abstract design. Watten’s work completes what promises to be an inspirational and enriching exhibit. \nThe Center\, located at Guadalupe and Fourth Streets in Carmel\, will welcome the public to view these works at no charge from 11am to 5pm on Saturday\, September 23rd and Sunday September 24th.  Make sure to stop in to see this display of distinctive original art as a part of your weekend activities. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Monterey at 60! A Visual Feast
DESCRIPTION:Monterey at 60! A Visual Feast\, an exhibit exploring 60 years of Monterey Jazz Festival posters\, opens Friday\, August 18th at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts. A reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday\, August 18th. The event is free and open to the public. \nShowcasing six decades of Monterey Jazz Festival images\, Monterey at 60! tells the story of the festival through its graphic imagery and photographic moments\, capturing the experience through posters\, program covers dating back to 1958. \nAlongside sixty years of some of the greatest jazz in the United States\, the exhibit will showcase posters which embody the spirit of the Festival as a whole: posters which represent all the great music and the complementary “scene” that exists just outside the venues hosting that music. \nThe Monterey Jazz Festival posters were created by graphic artists\, such as Earl Newman\, throughout the Festival’s history and have become an iconic and fitting symbol of 60 years of great music and food\, folklore\, and human fellowship. The posters have come to herald each year’s musical fare–unveiled annually when the artists to appear were first announced. Collaboration on the part of graphic artists established a unique Festival brand\, one of its icons a trumpet stationed on a chair\, often with a sylvan ocean setting in the background. This feast of posters reflects the beauty and abundance of music that graced Monterey Jazz Festival stages\, and the multitude of fans who have embraced the music. \nThe exhibit can be seen through September 15th during gallery hours:  Wednesday through Friday from 11 to 4 p.m.; Saturdays\, noon to 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Jazz at The Cherry Presents     Bruce Forman's Junkyard Duo
DESCRIPTION:Bruce Forman’s Junkyard Duo \nJoin us in welcoming Bruce Forman back to The Cherry for an encore performance on Friday\, July 7th at 5:00pm. This past May\, his one-man stage play “The Red Guitar” was a sold-out hit.  This time around\, scavenging music from the edge of sound\, his Junkyard Duo will use unique instrumentation and exotic sounds to create a spontaneous and intimate exploration of styles and approaches. Partnering with Bruce for this show is Jake Reed–drummer\, percussionist and soundscaper extraordiaire! Hobo chic at its utmost! \nAbout Bruce Forman \nBruce Forman’s guitar style has been an important part of the international jazz scene for more than three decades. He has been featured as leader as well as sideman at many of the most prestigious festivals and concert venues throughout the world. His numerous recording and performing credits include the likes of Bobby Hutcherson\, Ray Brown\, Freddie Hubbard\, Joe Henderson\, Barney Kessel\, Roger Kellaway\, Richie Cole\, and countless others. Known for swinging bop-style phrasing and inventive harmonizations\, his ability to work in a variety of settings keeps him in constant demand. His guitar work is featured throughout Clint Eastwood’s Academy Award-winning film\, Million Dollar Baby. \nForman’s life and musical journey provide an American saga that is still in full swing. His Texas origins\, early career in San Francisco and New York\, and years on the road all contribute to the unique and highly personal vision he demonstrates today. Deep immersion in American culture inspires him to contribute to the traditions he drew from. Cow Bop’s “road challenges” down historic byways like Route 66; original works like The Red Guitar; JazzMasters Workshop — these are only the latest answers to the endless question that underlies Bruce Forman’s creativity. His music and life reflect every step of his journey\, and demonstrate the awareness of an artist who’s very much at home in the world\, and at the top of his form. \n One performance only: Friday\, July 7th\,  from 5:00PM –  7:00PM. The $25 ticket price includes wine and light fare.  Tickets available through Brown Paper Tickets or by calling (831) 624-7491. \nThis performance is sponsored in part by Morgan Winery.

SUMMARY:Bruce Forman - The Red Guitar: a jazz libretto
DESCRIPTION:TWO SHOWS!:  6:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. \nThe Red Guitar: a jazz libretto is Bruce Forman’s perspective into the life of a musician\, and an exploration of the creative process. \nImagine receiving an invitation to a gala featuring John Coltrane\, Sigmund Freud\, and Faust. Bruce Forman’s “The Red Guitar” is all that more. It draws on Forman’s decades of experience as a formidable jazz guitarist and his considerable skill as a storyteller and teacher\, producing a work that is greater than the sum of its dazzling parts. \nA story in and about jazz\, The Red Guitar showcases Bruce Forman’s genre—breaking inventiveness and his ability to improvise and create within a classical form. Enlisting the full power of the jazz idiom and integrating it with seasoned and provocative story-telling\, he confronts the dilemma of artistic obsession face-to-face—by creating a work of art that simultaneously explores and demonstrates the hold that music has over its most ardent followers\, the hold that poses itself as a life-or-death\, must-be-solved-question to Forman and his ilk: “The Red Guitar. Do you play it…or does it play you? \nTickets are $20\, available at brownpapertickets.com. \n

SUMMARY:Dear Elizabeth
DESCRIPTION:The play “Dear Elizabeth” starring locally-renowned actors Rosemary Luke and John Newkirk  will be presented at The Cherry Center for the Arts on March 31st\, April 1st\, and April 2nd\, 2017. The pair bring to life letters written by poet laureates Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell over the course of their thirty year relationship.  Rarely meeting in person\, Bishop and Lowell beautifully expressed their feelings and mastery of the written word in over four hundred letters exchanged between 1947 and 1977\, the year of Lowell’s untimely death. \nPlaywright Sarah Ruhl fell in love with the letters while confined to bedrest during a challenging twin pregnancy\, and felt compelled to bring their love story to the stage. “I think we are starved for the sound of poetry\, ” said Ruhl. “I wonder if Bishop and Lowell are among the last great people of letters to write out their lives in letter form.” \nPrior to each evening performance\, twentieth century literature scholar Dr. Renee Curry will provide an insightful overview of the bond between these two literary giants. \nPlease be sure to join us for this celebration of friendship and poetry.  March 31st and April 1st at 6:30PM. Sunday matinee performance on April 2nd at 2:00PM. Tickets are $20.00\, available at brownpapertickets.com.
