SUMMARY:The Essiet Essiet Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Jazz at The Cherry is thrilled to welcome the New York-based Essiet Essiet Quartet on Sunday\, July 9th at 2:oo pm.\nDoors open at 1:30 pm for a reception featuring wine and light fare included in the $35 ticket price. Tickets can be purchased on eventbrite.com or by calling 831-624-7491. \nAbout the Quartet: \nEssiet Okon Essiet\, considered one of the top bassists in jazz today\, first received critical acclaim over a decade ago in Bobby Watson’s group\, Horizon. Born in Nebraska to Nigerian parents\, he began studying violin at age 10 and switched to bass viol at 14. As a child\, he traveled widely with his family\, and that early exposure to many cultures\, folk-ways\, languages\, and religions fostered his world view of strength through diversity.  Essiet has performed and recorded with such notables as: Benny Golson\, Johnny Griffin\, James Moody\, Freddie Hubbard\, Bobby Hutcherson\, Cedar Walton\, Sam Rivers\, George Adams\, Pat Martino\, Kenny Burrell\, Jackie McLean\, Frank Morgan\, Kenny Barron\, Louis Hayes\, Ben Riley\, Jimmy Cobb\, Billy Higgins\, Billy Hart\, Art Farmer\, Abby Lincoln\, Dee Dee Bridgewater\, Billy Cobham\, Bennie Maupin\, Al Foster\, Eddie Henderson\, Steve Turre\, Jon Faddis\, Bobby Watson\, Victor Lewis\, Kenny Garrett\, Kenny Kirkland\, Mulgrew Miller\, Jeff “Tain ” Watts\, Mike Stern\, Kevin Mahogany\, Kurt Elling\, Fort Apache Band\, Danilo Perez\, Claudia Acuna\, Geri Allen\, and Ralph Peterson\, to highlight only a partial list. \nSylvia Cuenca\, a highly accomplished jazz performer and educator\, is an active drummer on the New York jazz scene. She has had the honor of sharing the bandstand with saxophone legend Joe Henderson for 4 years\, and trumpet legend Clark Terry for 17 years.  She has performed with some of the biggest names in jazz\, including: Al Grey\, Red Holloway\, Jimmy Heath\, Frank Wess\, Marian McPartland\, Dianne Reeves\, Joe Williams\, Lou Donaldson\, John Handy\, Mark Whitfield\, John Clayton\, Ernestine Anderson\, Richie Cole\, Dianne Schur\, and many other jazz luminaries. In 2015\, she performed at Dizzy’s Jazz at Lincoln Center in NYC\, and the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington\, D.C. \nSaxophonist Rico Jones is steadily becoming one of the top young saxophonists of his generation.  A Colorado native\, Rico has been deeply compelled by artistic expression since early childhood.  Rico grew up in Denver performing under the guidance of local artists such as Paul Romaine\, Greg Gisbert\, Eric Gunnison\, Art Lande\, Brad Goode and Vlad Girshevich.  As the years passed\, Rico became enthralled by black American musical art forms\, and Blues and Jazz became primary modes of expression for Jones and his ensembles. As he grew\, his heritage as a Latino with indigenous roots became a focus for his artistic expressions. He has performed as a leader with notable artists such as: Dave Kikoski\, Jeff “Tain” Watts\, Matt Clohesy\, Yasushi Makimura\, Ari Hoenig\, Lage Lund\, Kush Abadav\, Jope Mrtin\, Colin Stranahan\, Rick Rosato\, Rich Perry\, Steven Feifke\, and many others. \nBruce Forman\, a local favorite and internationally known guitarist\, will be joining this stellar jazz quartet. As a sideman\, Bruce’s recordings include works with the likes of Ray Brown\, Bobby Hutcherson\, and Roger Kellaway\, as well as soundtrack performances on three of Clint Eastwood’s distinguished films—most notably Academy Award-winning “Million Dollar Baby.” Bruce has performed at The Cherry on several occasions\, and we are pleased to have his amazing guitar work as a part of this outstanding line-up. \nDon’t miss this rare opportunity to hear some of the best contemporary jazz from these world-class artists!

SUMMARY:"Shared Visions: The Cherry at Seventy-Five" Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This summer\, the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts illuminates the connection between the artwork and poetry of Jeanne D’Orge (Mrs. Carl Cherry) and contemporary local artists and poets in celebration of the center’s seventy-fifth year. \nOpening Friday\, July 14th\, Shared Visions: The Cherry Center at Seventy-Five will include paintings\, drawings and sculpture by ten area artists displayed alongside select works by Jeanne D’Orge from the Cherry Center’s private collection. Participating artists include Tracey Adams\, Robert Armstrong\, Rob Barnard\, Jennifer Brook-Kothlow\, Jamie Dagdigian\, Judith Foosaner\, Susan Hyde Greene\, Ken Hale\, Margaret Rinkovsky\, and the Temple Sisters. An artists’ reception will be held Friday\, July 14th\, from 5-7pm. The event is free and open to the public. \nArtists featured in this exhibition have created works that reinterpret and remix elements\, themes and the palette of Jeanne D’Orge\, and highlight ways art inspires across time.  Their works speak to the expanding diversity of the stories we want to tell\, and illustrate how today’s artists continue to find inspiration in the methods and pictorial traditions from the Cherry Center’s rich history. \nThe exhibit will close Saturday\, September 23rd. \n\nShared Visions: The Cherry at Seventy-Five Poetry Reading \nA poetry reading will be held at the Cherry Center on Friday\, July 28th\, at 7pm. Poets Jennifer Lagier\, George Lober\, Anne Mitchell\, and Elliot Ruchowitz-Roberts will read selections of their poetry alongside the writing of Mrs. Cherry; each offering insight into the other. Reservations required. Tickets are by donation\, available on eventbrite.com or by calling (831) 624-7491. The Cherry Center is located on the northwest corner of Fourth Avenue and Guadalupe Street\, Carmel. \nPictured\, left: Untitled – Jeanne D’Orge\nPictured\, right: “A Spider in the House” – Tracey Adams \n\nAbout the Artists: \nJeanne D’Orge took up painting at the age of fifty-four at the urging of her husband\, Carl Cherry. Although her paintings were recognized in her lifetime for their forcefulness and spirit  — with exhibits at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art\, the Park Avenue Galley in New York City\, and De Young Museum in San Francisco — D’Orge insisted her paintings never be sold\, saying\, “I’m just a paintbrush for God.” \nTracey Adams has been an exhibiting artist for over 35 years. She has participated in over 175 solo and group exhibitions in the United States and internationally\, including solo exhibitions at the Monterey Museum of Art\, Fresno Art Museum and the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History. Adams’ paintings are included in the permanent collections of the Bakersfield Museum of Art\, Crocker Museum\, Hunterdon Art Museum\, Monterey Museum of Art\, Fresno Art Museum\, Tucson Art Museum and Santa Barbara Museum of Art. \nRobert Armstrong grew up in Salinas\, California\, and attended UC Berkeley as an art major. A mechanical technician by trade\, he worked for a geophysical company\, a survey group and on a photon accelerator. Armstrong’s interest in geology\, physics and engineering informs his art. His exhibitions tend to be large\, unique installations\, with interesting titles\, humor and irony. \nRob Barnard was born in Lexington\, Kentucky in 1949. He began studying pottery at the University of Kentucky in 1971 after serving in Vietnam with the United States Marine Corps. In 1974 he was admitted to the Kentucky Guild of Artists and Craftsmen and accepted as a research student at Kyoto University of Fine Arts in Kyoto\, Japan where he studied under the late Kazuo Yagi. He has returned to Japan numerous times since 1978 for solo exhibitions in Tokyo\, Nagoya\, and Osaka. Besides Japan\, Barnard exhibits widely both in the United States and Great Britain. \nJennifer Brook-Kothlow was born and raised in San Francisco. Her training began in the early 1960’s as an undergraduate art major at the University of Colorado at Boulder\, and continued with studies in ceramics under Betty Woodman\, as well as extension courses at the San Francisco Art Institute under Frank Lobdell. She has dedicated her life to art practice and has continued to produce paintings and mono-prints influenced by the Abstract Expressionist style for the past fifty years. \nJamie Dagdigian is an artist and designer currently living and working on the Monterey Peninsula. He is an instructor and the Art Department Chairman at Monterey Peninsula College and has been creating mixed-media work while teaching both art and design. \nJudith Foosaner is a mixed-media artist who incorporates elements of collage and free-hand sketches into her large-scale acrylic works on canvas–dramatic\, gestural black and white works where linear elements suggest letters from some unknown alphabet\, poetry written in a language we can’t quite translate. \nSusan Hyde Greene is an award-winning fine art photographer. She cuts her images apart then stitches them back together in a reflection of relationships and humanity. Susan is an avid traveler whose artwork is created from images around the world. \nKenneth J. Hale (born 1948) received a BA in 1971 from California State University at Long Beach and a MFA from the University of Illinois (Urbana) in 1973. After graduation he moved to Austin\, Texas to teach at the University of Texas in the Department of Art and Art History. In addition to the AP/RC\, his paintings\, prints\, and drawings are in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York\, NY)\, The National Museum of American Art (Washington\, DC)\, the Achenbach Foundation (San Francisco)\, the McNay Art Museum (San Antonio\, TX)\, the Chicago Art Institute (IL)\, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (MA) and the Modern Art Museum of Ft. Worth (TX). \nSusan Hyde Greene is an award-winning fine art photographer. She cuts her images apart to then stitch them back together in a reflection of relationships and humanity. An avid traveler\, her artwork is created from images from all over the world. Greene received her BFA in textiles\, photography\, and art history from the University of Hawaii\, Manoa and her MFA from the University of Utah. Her work is in several public and private collections\, including Adobe Systems. \nMargaret Rinkovsky is a painter currently living in Santa Cruz\, California. She received her Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree from UCLA. She also holds a Masters of Arts degree in Printmaking and a Master of Fine Arts degree in painting\, also from UCLA. Ms. Rinkovsky is the recipient of the prestigious SECA Award from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, was a nominee to the American Academy of Arts in New York\, and received the Distinguished Artist Award from the Santa Cruz Art League. \nThe Temple Sisters – Holly and Ashlee Temple – work in mixed media to generate works on paper\, canvas and create small assemblages. Each work they devise is meant to engage the viewer in questions about the temporal and fluid nature of image\, memory\, and the cultural language of expression.
