SUMMARY:Bruce Forman: The Red Guitar...a jazz libretto
DESCRIPTION:SECOND SHOW ADDED\, STARTING AT 9pm (goes until 10:00 p.m.)\nThe Red Guitar\, draws on Bruce Forman’s  decades of experience as a leading jazz guitarist\, and demonstrates his skill as a storyteller and teacher.  The result is a work that is even greater than the considerable sum of its parts. \nA story in jazz\, and about jazz\, it is built upon the armature of a classical tale that is often seen as a metaphor for how artists become possessed by their art.  The story has deep roots in European and American mythos.  From the red slippers that were a literal symbol of imperial authority in the Roman Empire\, through Hans Christian Andersen’s nineteenth-century retelling of The Red Shoes\, and more recently\, in several distinguished film adaptations of this powerful theme\, the underlying tale has resonated with audiences for centuries. \nBruce Forman took on a classic quest as a young man–to grow beyond his roots in Texas\, acquire artistic mastery\, conquer the urban world\, and achieve knowledge and sophistication. His reputation and circle of collaborators grew\, and his horizons expanded: leader on 16 albums; sideman on numerous others; composer; arranger; artist in residence; university educator; philanthropist; composer-performer on a jazz libretto\, The Red Guitar\, and three Clint Eastwood soundtracks: Flags of Our Fathers; Million Dollar Baby; and Hereafter. \nPurchase tickets

To enhance our comparison\, we will also read the stories before viewing the films. \nFacilitator\nMalcolm Weintraub\, Carmel resident and inveterate cineaste\, is a devotee of film studies paying special attention to cinema thematics. His popular series include the first part of “Adaption – Short Story to Feature Film\,” “Moviews on Moveiws\,” “Satirical Anti-War Cinema\,” and more. \nMore info including online registration

SUMMARY:EXHIBIT: Collage: New Directions
DESCRIPTION:  \nCollage: New Directions\, opens Friday\, July 24th at the Cherry Center. Artists in this multi-media exhibit include: \nTracey Adams ♦ Michelle Avery ♦ Miriam Hitchcock ♦ Lisa Hochstein ♦ Susan Hyde Greene ♦ Claire Lerner ♦ Will Marino ♦  Grace Munakata  ♦ Vivienne Riggio ♦  Robynn Smith ♦ Mitzi Trachtenberg ♦ Vanessa Woods \nThe exhibit can be seen Monday through Friday\, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.\, or by appointment through September 28\, 2015. \nA reception for the artists will be held Friday\, July 24th\, from 5 to 7 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. \nSpanning a range of materials and mediums\, the breadth of the Cherry exhibition documents how collage’s use of bits and pieces of applied materials is unique in its ability to capture physical moments of time: the created or found materials of the Central Coast of California\, its pigments and fonts and ephemera. Collage has the ability to bring a tactile\, physical experience of human history into the reality-presence of the viewer.

SUMMARY:EXHIBIT: Meditation on Color and Form
DESCRIPTION:PETER HILLER  & NANCY GENN\nMeditation on Color and Form\n\nMay 29th — July 10th\, 2015\n\nCLOSING WINE RECEPTION added July 10 at 4:30pm – 6:30pm\nMeet and greet and have a treat with artists Nancy Genn and Peter Hiller. \n\n\n\nMeditation on Color and Form\, an exhibit of recent photographs\, sculpture and paintings by Nancy Genn and Peter Hiller\, opens Friday\, May 29th at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts. A reception for the artists will be held Friday\, May 29th from 5 to 7 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. A conversation with the artists about the process of their work will be held Saturday\, May 30th at 3 p.m. in the gallery.\n\nMeditation on Color and Form focuses upon how shape\, texture\, line\, light and color are all balanced and considered not as merely descriptive flourishes\, but as essential\, striking forces themselves in both photography and painting.\n\nNancy Genn’s paintings reflect her own relationship between abstraction and representation\, the titles evoking a sense of place rather than specifying its absolute parameters. The paintings and sculpture\, which may include calligraphy\, pencil marks\, bits of an architect’s topographical map and Persian script\, allude to a narrative while refusing to tell only one tale. Her abstraction paintings provoke visceral responses — they are reminiscent of landscapes\, seascapes or cityscapes\, but reach for something beyond a facade or blue horizon. The active visual fields draw the viewer in\, allowing us to become part of her experience\, as the experience simultaneously becomes our own. Ms. Genn has exhibited at the Fresno Art Museum\, the Mills College Art Museum and the Kala Institute in Berkeley\, among other venues. She lives in Berkeley.\n\n Selected from photographs taken over the past year\, Peter Hiller’s work spotlights 14 studies of surfaces and straddles the line between representation and abstraction\, revealing how ordinary objects often serve as a departure for an artist’s abstract vision–or\, alternatively\, how an artist’s abstract form may subtly suggest recognizable elements. In his recent work\, Hiller uses photography to transform rusted\, scarred and peeling paint into delicate compositions\, isolated into lush dry points\, a la Jackson Pollock. Like the abstractionist\, Hiller deftly drips and spatters a graceful arabesque of form\, space\, light and texture. Mr. Hiller has exhibited at the Chadron State College\,  Mari Sandoz Center. Chadron\, Nebraska\, Westmont Museum of Art. Santa Barbara\, Ca. and the National Steinbeck Center\, among other venues. Peter Hiller lives in Carmel.\n\nInformation: (831) 624-7491. The exhibit  can be seen Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.\, or by appointment\, through July 10th\, 2015.\n\nThe Carl Cherry Center for the Arts\, Fourth and Guadalupe\, Carmel\, CA (831) 624-7491.

SUMMARY:EXHIBIT: Coit Tower - The Carmel Connection
DESCRIPTION:When the Works Progress Administration commissioned murals for the interior of San Francisco’s iconic Coit Tower in 1933\, it was suggested that “some of our best painters” be commissioned for the project on Telegraph Hill. Two of those artists– Maxine Albro and Parker Hall–were married in 1938 and moved to Carmel. Other artists associated with the New Deal project visited the area over the years and Colonel Harold Mack\, who built the hacienda outside Monterey which later became Santa Catalina School\, was a member of the original committee established to oversee the WPA’s Coit Tower plans. \nThe Coit Tower bond to Carmel will be celebrated in an exhibit of photography\, original art and sculpture April 17th through May 22nd in Cherry Gallery\, with an opening reception on Friday\, April 17th from 5 – 7:00pm. In addition to artwork and sculpture by Ms. Albro and Mr. Hall\, the exhibit will include photographs of all 25 original Coit Tower muralists and biographical material curated by Jon Golinger\, past president of the association Telegraph Hill Dwellers and the leader of the Protect Coit Tower Restoration effort. Additionally\, Mr. Golinger will give a talk and slide show on the project on Saturday\, April 18th beginning at 2 p.m. in Cherry Hall. \nLast May\, a $1.7 million restoration project instilled new life into the tower’s historic fresco murals that depict the city and state during the Great Depression and repaired the roof so it won’t leak onto the works of art. \nOne of the first projects to be funded by the W.P.A\, a number of the artists were influenced by the Mexican muralist\, Diego Rivera\, including Ms. Albro and Mr. Hall\, who visited him in Mexico. Not without its own controversy\, some of the muralists were censured for portraying scenes suggesting sympathy toward Marxist ideologies. \nHall’s 9′ x 13′ Coit Tower fresco depicts collegiate sports circa 1933: rivals Stanford and the University of California in a contest and students playing badminton\, baseball\, and basketball. Maxine Albro’s 10′ x 42′ fresco is a balanced tableau of California’s rich agricultural life. \nThe exhibit can be seen Monday — Friday\, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.\, or by appointment. Information: (831) 624-7491. \nSponsors:  Funding has been generously provided by Michael R. Vollstedt; John T. Kurzava Jr.\, CFP\, CRPC; Hilary Baumstarck\, Carrie Theis (Hofsas House) and Merrill Lynch
