SUMMARY:Lost and Found: Assemblage Artists of Northern California
DESCRIPTION:“Lost and Found: Assemblage Artists of Northern California” features multiple works from eight of the finest assemblage artists working in California today: Robert Armstrong\, Spencer Brewer\, Dianne Hoffman\, Sean O’Donnell\, Ray Magsalay\, Monty Monty\, Nancy Sevier\, and Esther Siegel. \nFrom Redwood Valley to San Francisco to the Monterey Peninsula\, these artists share a common goal: the desire to find and collect forgotten things\, then spend an inordinate amount of time bringing harmony\, humor\, beauty\, new meaning and purpose to these remnants of another era.Meet these time traveling visionaries at an artists’ reception on Friday\, April 7th\, from 5pm – 7pm at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts\, Carmel. The event is free and open to the public. \n“Lost and Found” will run through May 6th\, and can be seen during gallery hours: Wednesday through Saturday from noon to 4:00 pm or by appointment. The Cherry Center is located on the northwest corner of Fourth and Guadalupe\, Carmel. \nVISIT ONLINE EXHIBIT \nCurator’s Statement:  \nA chance encounter last summer led Ellen and me into a walk-in cabinet of curiosities housed in a barn. It was filled from floor to ceiling with a cornucopia of piano parts\, pipe organ pipes\, violins\, brass instruments\, toys\, rivets\, bones\, eggbeaters\, vintage radios\, antique electronics\, masks\, mannequins and much\, much more\, all neatly organized in bins and boxes on shelves and hanging from hooks on walls. On the floor\, there were several workbenches with tools of the trade and just as many worktables\, each with multiple sculptures in the process of becoming. \nThe art barn\, home\, horse ranch and surrounding folk art follies are the playground of Spencer Brewer and Esther Siegel\, a couple of happily working\, multi-hyphenate artists\, who also (not coincidentally) produced and edited a newly released book\, called “Lost and Found: Assemblage Artists of Northern California.” \nI was so inspired by Spencer\, Esther and the remarkable group of artists featured in their book\, I asked Robert Reese if we could bring them to the Cherry\, together with three of the most celebrated assemblage artists from the Monterey Peninsula. \nThe book\, “Lost and Found: Assemblage Artists of Northern California\,” will be available for purchase in the gallery.   Link to the book and artists:  https://lostandfound.art/\n     – Jim Dultz \nPictured: Robert Armstong \n\n The Artists and their Statements:  \nRobert Armstrong (Carmel Valley) “My intention is to keep the work process and the materials simple\, direct\, and obvious so that ideas\, energies\, forms\, and associations are exposed\, stirred\, shifted\, and scrambled with a playful approach and a discursive edge.” \nSpencer Brewer: (Redwood Valley) “Analogue relics from the 19th century were once envisioned and manufactured to last lifetimes\, all made from the finest materials available. Utilizing these materials\, I create sculptures that hopefully inspire viewers to think outside the box in their own creative worlds.” \n Dianne Hoffman: (San Francisco) “I have a tendency to personify inanimate objects and feel genuine compassion for those that are damaged or discarded. I see potential in broken bits and find beauty in rust and erosion. The older an object\, the more haunting and alluring its ghost.” \nSean O’Donnell: (San Francisco) “I have always been a tinkerer. My generation of boys grew up building tree forts\, customizing our bicycles and demonstrating complete disregard for the assembly instructions needlessly included in our model car kits. My creative process is more about the tunnel than the light at the end of it.” \nMonty Monty: (Graton) “I am fascinated with the earliest modes of transportation\, gadgetry in all forms and just about everything else from the turn of the century. I admire antiques and things with age on them. These show up in my art\, which I refer to as “Vintage Collectible Sculpture and Assemblage.” \nRay Magsalay: (Pacific Grove) “I spent much of my childhood alone\, developing a strong connection to fantasy and magic. This shows up in the art I create. All time spent making art guarantees a feeling of peace within me\, so I continue to make it.” \nNancy Sevier: (Salinas) “I bring together abandoned parts. Even in their brokenness\, these objects hold meaning and conjure a desire for wholeness and harmony. I’m interested in exploring the object and its embedded cultural memory.” \nEsther Siegel: (Redwood Valley) “Once I discovered I could “draw and paint” with objects\, I was hooked. Just as I have always enjoyed putting together ingredients in the kitchen to bake and cook\, I love the alchemy of creating interesting combinations of objects in the studio for their new and ‘perfect home.’” \n

SUMMARY:The Interview - A Mystery
DESCRIPTION:May 12 – June 4\, 2023 \n“The Interview – A Mystery\,” a new play written and directed by Tom Parks\, opens Friday\, May 12th through June 4th. Friday and Saturday performances begin at 7:30pm; Sunday performances at 2:30pm. Tickets are $25\, available by calling (831) 717-7373 or the box office prior to each performance. \nAbout the Play: \nSuccessful journalist\, Charlie Simpson\, has for forty years plied his trade to most of the nation’s important newspapers. Times have changed; the world of newspapers had changed. He now finds himself a stringer on a small town weekly in rural northwest Oregon. \nThere’s a message waiting for him one Tuesday morning as he sits down at his desk – call his editor. \nHe has an assignment\, not what he’s expecting\, like a little league game or the birth of Bonnie Barns’ second set of wins. No\, there’s a new lady in town\, a painter\, an artist. He’s scheduled an interview with her. Charlie knows less than nothing about art\, so it seems a stretch for him to be covering this story\, or\, he worries\, is there really a story there? Indeed\, there is. Or at any rate he thinks there may be one hellava story. In fact\, this may turn out to be the scoop of his professional life. \nSomething to be said for high drama in the boondocks. And Charlie is in hot pursuit.

SUMMARY:Putin's War
DESCRIPTION:“Putin’s War\,” a new exhibit of paintings by Waldek Dynerman exploring the ongoing conflict in Ukraine\, opens Friday\, May 26th at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts. A reception for the artist will be held Friday\, May 26th from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. \nVISIT ONLINE CATALOGUE \nRussia invaded Ukraine by land\, sea and air on Feb. 24\, 2022\, the largest attack by one state against another in Europe since World War II. Russian President Vladimir Putin has called its actions “a special military operation\,” while Ukraine and the West call the attack a malicious land grab. \nAgainst the backdrop of the successive incursions mounted by Russian forces into Ukrainian state territory since 2014\, the works presented in the exhibition – all of which were created within the past fifteen months – provide an evocative\, emotional reflection of the drastically transformed life and turbulent spiritual landscape of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. \nVISIT ONLINE EXHIBIT \nAbout the Artist: \nBorn in Warsaw six years after WWII ended\, Mr. Dynerman grew up absorbing the traumatic stories of his parents and developing great empathy for victims of war; conflicts has become one of the stalwarts of his work. \n“When making art\, these thoughts and feeling are always present\, and may be expressed through brutal treatment of materials\, fragmentation of the human form\, or obfuscation of meaning.” Putin’s unprovoked aggression and the brutality of the Ukrainian war has triggered flashbacks to the many WWII stories he heard as a child” he says. \nMr. Dynerman has exhibited in dozens of group and one-person shows throughout the U.S. and Europe\, including exhibitions at the Hawthorn Contemporary in Milwaukee\, WI\, the Fata Morgana project space\, Berlin\, Germany\, and the Apteka Sztuki Gallery\, Wasaw\, Poland. \nThe exhibit can be seen Wednesdays through Saturdays\, 12 noon to 4 p.m. or by appointment through June 24th. The Carl Cherry Center for the Arts is located on the northwest corner of Fourth and Guadalupe\, Carmel. \nImage: “New World Order” – Waldek Dynerman
