SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Erika Meitner & Sarah Heady Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk via Facebook LIVE:\nErika Meitner and Sarah Heady \nView Facebook LIVE \nErika Meitner will be sharing poems and photos from her latest project in progress\, tentatively titled Miami : Elegy\, which uses documentary and eco-poetic modes of verse and lyric essay to explore issues of global warming and sea-level rise in Miami\, Florida—an epicenter of urban climate change. She has spent the past three years visiting the city\, along with photographer Anna Maria Barry-Jester\, to collect interviews\, images\, and experiences that record the ways in which rising water and extreme weather have altered–and not altered–the landscape and human geography of the city. \nSarah Heady will be reading poems from her project “The Hudson Lines.” This project is based on a sustained poetic engagement with the Metro-North Railroad over five years\, documenting a recursive series of train trips between Grand Central Terminal and Poughkeepsie\, using the Hudson River as a mirror. This place-based endeavor  relates directly to the landscape of the Hudson Valley and to Ossining as a river town. Sarah will pair her poems with short films she has made on the Metro-North. \n\n \nBethany Arts Community’s residency programs are made possible by ArtsWestchester with support from Westchester County Government

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Tacie Jones Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk via Facebook LIVE:\nTacie Jones Artist Talk: Mending \nView Facebook LIVE  \nWe store the imprint of memory in our bodies. Some of this memory comes from personal experience\, and some we inherit from our ancestors. This online artist talk will discuss Mending\, a growing body of work consisting of video\, media installation\, sculpture\, performance documentation and cyanotype photography. The works confront Walter Benjamin’s patriarchal argument that one must intellectually excavate deep memory. The processes and components of Mending echo elemental transformation and visualize sensorial manifestations of embodied memory to gesture at reconciliatory ways of being with the aftermath of gendered\, transgenerational trauma.  \nDuring her virtual residency\, Tacie will be spending time in the hundred wooded acres next to her home\, mentally sketching\, taking videos and photographs for small series of fabric-based\, projection-mapped sculptures. \nAbout the Artist\nTacie Jones is an artist working in video\, media installation\, sculpture\, photography and socially-engaged practice. Her recent work explores ancestral embodiment by way of probing the juxtaposition between impermanence and materiality in the sensorial reconciliation of trauma. Her combined background in new media and studio art\, social practice and non-profit community work engage creativity and interconnection as catalysts for understanding the individual’s part in community resilience. Tacie holds a BFA in Studio Art from George Mason University\, an MRes (Master of Research) in Creative Practices from the Glasgow School of Art\, and an MFA in Creative Technologies from Virginia Tech. She is currently working toward an interdisciplinary PhD at Virginia Tech. She lives with her foodsmith partner\, tending their two pups and gardens in the mountainous countryside of Blacksburg\, Virginia.  \n \nBethany Arts Community’s residency programs are made possible by ArtsWestchester with support from Westchester County Government

SUMMARY:Virtual Artist In Residence: Karen Allen Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk via Zoom:\nKaren Allen\, visual artist\, will share her inspirations and process for creating her works “Ark\, Totems and Vessels” and the “Under and Over the Allowable Limit”   \nZoom Link\nAbout the Artist\nKaren Allen paintings and drawings in acrylic\, oils and pastels are figurative abstractions. The inner feeling and meaning of what has inspired me visually is more important for me than careful rendering. I am \n\nlooking for both balance and contrast: to preserve the initial figurative trigger that inspired the work and to visually refine an essence of the feeling or “inner tug” that led me to that image. More and more I seem to be moving closer toward total abstraction. But I don’t feel that I will ever abandon my love of what I can see in the world around me with my eyes. It’s a fine balance … \nThe various collage elements which I sometimes use introduce an exploration of visual texture and personal historical intimacy. I look for balance and contrast between playfulness and considered graphic call and response during my painting process. Sometimes my working surfaces are 3 dimensional objects whose functionality becomes changed into an allegory or a metaphor. This is a clue of how and what the painting tells me about my interior life. Creating art is for me a contemplative process as well as a physical one. \nIn my work I am looking for visual paradoxes\, a crossing into an immensity of space that may have no relationship to the actual size of things. I am becoming even more interested in how change in physical scale changes a painting’s feelings and intentions. Aesthetically\, I am very interested in how pure painting ideas can be scaled to mural sized works in public spaces both to enhance architectural space and express something personal. Underlying all this is what I call my “second truth”. That is\, the positive and regenerative life force that I believe lies in the universe we inhabit. A universe so beautiful\, yet so full of tragedy\, disappointment and darwinian struggle. I am a very flawed and imperfect idealist who actually believes the act of creation by artists has something to do with our deepest calling to be whole. \n \nBethany Arts Community’s residency programs are made possible by ArtsWestchester with support from Westchester County Government

SUMMARY:PICASSO ONLINE: The Man - The Myth - The Legend
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this fascinating 5-week Pablo PIcasso online art history class lead by Jill Kiefer\, Ph.D. and Bethany Arts Community.\nTuesdays\, 10am – 11am September 15th – October 13th. \nSpanish expatriate painter\, sculptor\, printmaker\, ceramicist\, and stage designer Pablo Picasso remains the most influential artist of the twentieth century\, and is regarded as one of the greatest artists of all time. The creator (with Georges Braque) of Cubism\, Picasso continues to be a figure hotly debated–but always admired. In this course\, we’ll examine the tumultuous life and works of the inseparable man and artist\, who was–by far–the most prolific artistic genius in history. (To date\, 34\,073 artworks by Picasso have been catalogued.) We’ll also be looking at the many myths that surround this rather enigmatic figure–and do our best to separate the facts from the fictions! \nRegister for online Course

SUMMARY:Hang with Art: A Discussion About Arts Education in the Days of Covid
DESCRIPTION:A discussion with arts educators Sharon Ciccone\, Marty Merchant and Cathy Ibanez about the importance of art education\, especially in the days of Covid\, and the work in the NY State Art Teachers Association Annual Art Show. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nView Online Exhibit\nAbout the Show\nThe 2020 gallery show of New York State Art Teachers Association Region 7 members. \nWhile exploring their own voices\, these artist-teachers find their generative sources in the classroom and their lives. In this season of upheaval and stress\, we try to find meaning and hope in our art making. Our mission of engaging students in expressive investigations of themselves and their relationship to the world has been disrupted by unprecedented separation. The teaching artists in this exhibit meet the current season in diverse ways – through confrontation\, escape\, negotiation\, and affirmation. This exhibition is a unique and powerful survey of how a special kind of artist – who has made their practice a personal and shared passion – meets the challenges of the pandemic\, social justice\, politics\, and the multitude of personal trials this era presents. \nArtists:\nTerrie Bentley\, Amanda Buhler\, Sharon Ciccone\, Kelley Hedin\, Catherine Ibanez\,\nHolly McCabe\, Martin Merchant\, Elizabeth Murphy\, Gina Palmer\, Lauren Ras\,\nRoberto E. Romani\, Monica Czernecki Schor\, Scott Seaboldt\, Eric Stormes\,\nPatty Tyrol\, Mitchell Visoky\, Paula Westcott\, Ron Whitehead \n

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence- Ada: A Work In Progress Showing
DESCRIPTION:Join us Sep 27 @ 11am via Facebook LIVE for a conversation and song about Ada\, a musical work in progress.\n\nView on Facebook LIVE\n\nComposer Kim Sherman\, Librettist Margaret Vandenburg\, Music Director Kimberly Grigsby and Director Lisa Rothe will discuss the development process of their new music theater piece\, as well as the close relationship between science and art with Naomi Leonard\, Edwin S. Wilsey Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Princeton University.  The sharing will also feature video which dives into the writing process and relationship between passion and technology/science\, along with a panel discussion on the team’s goals for their residency at Bethany.\n\n“Ada” is a music theatre work based on the life of Ada Byron (1815-1852.)\n\n\nAda Byron is one of the most spectacular characters in computer history and the daughter of the poet Lord Byron and Anna Isabella Milbanke\, Baroness of Wentworth. Five weeks after Ada’s birth\, Anna asks for a separation from Byron and is awarded sole custody. Fearing her daughter might follow in her father’s notorious footsteps\, Anna rears Ada to be a mathematician and scientist. Like Byron\, Ada embarks on a Romantic quest very much at odds with the prevailing Victorian ethic of restraint. Though her medium was mathematics\, she rejects the notion that virtue lies in conformity\, believing instead in a higher ethic of knowledge and ambition. Ada meets the inventor Charles Babbage and becomes smitten with his new invention\, The Difference Engine. Ada Byron\, the “Enchantress of Numbers\,” melds her father’s Romantic visions with her mother’s mathematical genius to develop the prototype of modern computer language. \n“Ada” provides a nexus of old and new\, traditional Romantic themes and contemporary digital vocabularies. The music is a hybrid of Romantic lyricism and modern dissonance. The libretto weaves tapestries of numbers and Byronic flights of fancy into a story that is simultaneously timeless and timely\, the journey of a woman who defies Victorian constraints to usher the industrial age into the digital age. Ada is a brilliant imaginative pre-conceiver\, a woman very much ahead of her time who valiantly wrestles with the constraints imposed upon her. \n\n\n \nBethany Arts Community’s residency programs are made possible by ArtsWestchester with support from Westchester County Government

SUMMARY:Art in the Time of COVID: Online Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Art in the Time of COVID\nOpening Reception September 19th 2-3pm via Zoom \nZoom Link\nView Online Exhibit\nThe 2020 gallery show of New York State Art Teachers Association Region 7 members. \nWhile exploring their own voices\, these artist-teachers find their generative sources in the classroom and their lives. In this season of upheaval and stress\, we try to find meaning and hope in our art making. Our mission of engaging students in expressive investigations of themselves and their relationship to the world has been disrupted by unprecedented separation. The teaching artists in this exhibit meet the current season in diverse ways – through confrontation\, escape\, negotiation\, and affirmation. This exhibition is a unique and powerful survey of how a special kind of artist – who has made their practice a personal and shared passion – meets the challenges of the pandemic\, social justice\, politics\, and the multitude of personal trials this era presents. \nArtists: Terrie Bentley\, Amanda Buhler\, Sharon Ciccone\, Kelley Hedin\, Catherine Ibanez\,\nHolly McCabe\, Martin Merchant\, Elizabeth Murphy\, Gina Palmer\, Lauren Ras\, Roberto E. Romani\,\nMonica Czernecki Schor\, Scott Seaboldt\, Eric Stormes\, Patty Tyrol\,\nMitchell Visoky\, Paula Westcott\, Ron Whitehead \nGallery open:\nMon-Fri 10am-12pm and 1pm-3pm\n&\nSaturdays\,  Sep 26th\, Oct 3rd\, Oct 10th 10am-2pm\nappointments strongly encouraged \nArtwork may be purchased by contacting us at info@bethanyarts.org

SUMMARY:Artist in Residence: Brice Garrett – Object Stories
DESCRIPTION:Bethany Arts Community welcomes Brice Garrett for his first residency with us.  Brice is using his residency to develop ideas of community and participatory artworks. He will be developing “Object Stories” which is a community-sourced art project that documents people’s relationships to personal objects that shape our everyday lives. \nCall for Participation – seeking submissions to build this project. \nParticipants are asked to think about the meaningful possessions that surround them and submit images and the stories behind them. For Example\, I’m seeking objects and stories that represent the idea of home\, a particular place\, associated to a specific person\, provide comfort and/or are extensions of our bodies and routines. \nIt’s quick and simple – Please email a picture of your object and a short written text\, voice recording\, or video – whatever is easier – telling me about it and why you selected it. You can email as many objects / pictures as you want: \nStoriesOfAnObject@gmail.com \nAs the project evolves\, Brice will compile the images and create an anonymous online interactive archive of the images. The submissions become snapshots of our relationships to objects and the significant position they hold within our lives. \nArtist Bio:\nBrice Garrett uses the position of adornment and objects as a source to think through ideas of body\, production\, labor\, value\, and memory. Working across disciplines\, he utilizes a variety of materials and methods that culminate into wearables\, sculptures\, installations\, and participatory projects. Brice received his MFA from Konstfack University College of Arts\, Crafts and Design in Stockholm\, Sweden and a BA from San Diego State University. He has been the recipient of awards and residencies from the Museum of Arts and Design\, Queens Council on the Arts\, The Center for Craft\, Manhattan Graphic Center\, Tides Institute & Museum of Art and most recently Teton ArtLab. His work has been exhibited across Europe and the United States. He currently teaches jewelry and sculpture at the 92nd Street Y and Brooklyn Metal Works. \nFor more information on the artist visit:\nwww.bricegarrett.com \n \nBethany Arts Community’s residency programs are made possible by ArtsWestchester with support from Westchester County Government

SUMMARY:Artour Toulinov: Exhibit Event "Hang with Art" via BAC Facebook
DESCRIPTION:Hang with Art: A conversation with photographer Artour Toulinov\, Alex AG\, documentarian\,\nand Henry Welt\, friend of BAC\nJoin us August 20 @ 12:30pm via BAC Facebook page\n \nView Hang with Art Video\n\nArtour Toulinov: an (online) exhibition at Bethany Arts Community\nExhibit on display Jun 20th – Aug 31st\, 2020\nGallery open by appointment\nArtwork may be purchased by contacting us at info@bethanyarts.org  \nView Artour Toulinov exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Statement\nArtour Toulinov I began to photograph exclusively in the studio in 1999\, using a black backdrop\, which serves as a little theater. People from all walks of life became my models and interacted with objects I’d find everywhere\, but mostly at the flea market\, in antique and thrift stores or on the street\, in order to tell a story. The studio gave me the freedom to portray my emotional struggles and those of others in a deeper way. Looking back over my work\, I realize the most persistent themes are isolation and loneliness\, nostalgia\, mortality\, the struggle with ambition\, the irrelevance of labor to success\, and the process of immigration. In the beginning\, I explored the meaning of my memories\, – what I left behind in Russia and what I brought with me. But then the work became more about what I found to be true for me here in America\, and even more about the emotional lives of the people who were my models. \nI always come to the studio with an idea and never work spontaneously. The props I use have relevance to an idea or to the model. I find that by working with the same props and the same models\, I am able to discover even deeper meaning in my initial ideas. The models and I gain greater comfort working together over time\, and they are then able to reveal the beauty of the human mind. \nI was inspired to work in this particular way by the icons that fascinated me growing up in Russia\, and by the classical literature of my motherland. In this age of digital photography\, I suppose my tools would be considered classical as well. I shoot only black and white film with a Hasselblad camera designed in 1948\, and print the images in the darkroom the old fashioned way. \nMy greatest satisfaction comes when an image is able to elicit an emotional response or memory for the viewer\, because I have delved deep into myself in making it\, and we have found our common humanity. \nArtist Bio\nArtour Toulinov was born between two rivers in Tuapse\, Russia\, a seaport on the Black Sea. From a young age\, he was sculpting\, painting and drawing. He graduated from Moscow State University with a degree in law\, which he practiced until he immigrated to the United States in 1991. Although he was unable to practice law here\, he did continue his work as a fitness trainer\, not realizing then that he was training his eye for the photographic work he would make in the future with people from all walks of life. \nHe first picked up a camera in 1993\, but it wasn’t until 1999 that photography became his passion and his work took a serious bent. He began working exclusively in the studio\, using a black backdrop to create a small theater for the objects and people that would portray the memories he left behind in Russia\, and those that he brought with him. His work has always been heavily influenced by his fascination with Russian icons and by the classical literature of his motherland\, and so it was natural for him to create stories with his images\, stories that evolved over the years to express emotions and experiences common to all. He shoots only black and white film with a Hasselblad camera designed in 1948\, and prints the images himself in a refined silver gelatin format. \nToulinov’s work is in the permanent collection of the Brooklyn Museum\, as well as in many private collections\, and has been shown in galleries in New York City and Europe. After living and working in Manhattan for twenty-seven years\, he now has made Philadelphia his home. arttoulinov.com \nAbout Bethany Arts Community:\nFounded in May of 2015 by David Lyons\, Bethany Arts Community\, Inc. aspires to be a leading center for arts and culture\, where the many forms of art can be seen\, learned\, and produced.

SUMMARY:100 Great Artists of the 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:The 20th century opened with the legacies of Impressionism\, Post-Impressionism\, and all of the eras and movements that preceded them. Our look at the great artists of the 20th century will touch upon all of the major art movements of that century—in the European\, American\, and non-Western arenas.Beginning with Paul Cézanne and Claude Monet—who took the modern era in quite different directions—we’ll examine those artists who became part of the continuum that is art history\, by making significant contributions to what would become the art of a new century. We’ll look at the key figures of Modernism and Postmodernism\, which will include such artists as Henri Matisse\, Pablo Picasso\, Wassily Kandinsky\, Marcel Duchamp\, Joan Miró\, Salvador Dali\, Egon Schiele\, Edward Hopper\, Charles Demuth\, Jackson Pollock\, Mark Rothko\, Anselm Kiefer\, and Jaspar Johns—among many others.We’ll also be exploring amazing artists from the Ashcan School (formally known as The New York Realists)\, the Fantastic Naifs (naive and outsider artists)\, the Mexican Muralist School\, and the Harlem Renaissance. In addition\, we’ll be examining the major achievements of women in the arts during the 20th Century—who struggled throughout that era for recognition. \nJoin us on this fascinating 5-week online journey!\nSaturdays\, 10am –11am June 20\, 27\, July 11\, July 18 and July 25 (NO CLASS JULY 4) \nRegister for online Course

SUMMARY:The Art of Mexico: A Rich Tapestry of Traditions
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:\nThe art of Mexico embodies that country’s long struggle to form a cultural and artistic identity. Embedded in Mexico’s artistic production is a centuries-long cultural heritage articulated in influences including the Pre-Columbian\, Spanish Colonial\, and Western European traditions\, among others. In this class\, we will focus on the efforts of Mexican artists to develop styles that merge historical\, social\, political\, religious\, cultural and individual concerns. Mexican art reveals both a revolutionary  spirit—and deep ties to antiquity\, the West\, and the broader contemporary world. From the overtly political murals of Diego Rivera and the Mexican Muralist School to the deeply personal works of such artists as Frida Kahlo\, Rufino Tamayo and Mexico’s extraordinary contemporary\, graphic and folk artists\, there is a thread linking the distant past to the future that remains unbroken. \nThis course will be a journey along that continuum. (Five 2-hour sessions on Saturday 10am-12pm). \nSession 1: 1/25/2020\n“Origins of the Mexican Identity: Pre-Columbian Art (c. 1200-1535 CE)”\nThe civilizations of Central America (Mesoamerica) were roughly contemporaneous with the European Christian era. The Pre-Columbian culture was seemingly brought to an end by the Spanish conquest. However\, the art of this era is embedded in Mexican art throughout its history. Today\, we will examine this period\, including Mayan and Aztec art. \nSession 2: 2/1/2020\n“The Spanish Colonial Era”\nToday\, special attention will be paid to the impact of Spanish control over Mexico. We’ll look at the contributions of the conquerors to Mexican art and culture and will also identify the remaining influences of the Pre-Columbian tradition. We’ll also look at Mexico’s struggle of forming a cultural and artistic identity\, after winning independence in 1821. Artists we look at will include José Juárez\, Juan Correa\, and Cristóbal de Villalpando\, among others \nSession 3: 2/8/2020\n“Revolution\, Class Struggle and the Mexican Muralist School”\nToday we’ll examine the work of the key Mexican Muralists\, which developed following the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920). Artists we look at will include Diego Rivera\, José Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiros. \nSession 4: 2/15/2020\n“Modernism and the Synthesis of Roots”\nBreaking Away from the Mexican Muralists in the mid-20th Century\, artists such as Frida Kahlo\, Rudolfo Tamayo\, Emilio Amero\, Amador Lugo. Rosa Rolanda\, Dr. Atl (Gerardo Murillo)\, and many others developed a new vision for both the content and role of art. Today\, we will examine this period and its significance in forming an identity for Mexican art. \nSession 5: 2/22/2020 “A Merging of Styles and Purposes”\nToday we will examine Mexican art as part of the school of the world. We’ll look at more contemporary religious\, secular and folk genres to discover their significance in the “definition” of Mexican art\, and summarize where Mexican art is today. \nCourse Format:\nCourse materials for each lesson will be posted each Wednesday. The Instructor provides all materials for this course including: visual presentations; recommended reading lists; articles of interest; and\, other relevant printed materials.\nOnce Upon A Time – background info and relevant printed material will be provided\nVisual presentation (this will include a slide presentation and ongoing class discussions)\nStudents may contact the Instructor via e-mail with questions\, in between class sessions \nCourse Objectives and Student Learning Outcomes:\nUpon completion of this course\, students will be able to:\nIdentify some key works of art from the Mexican (and other) traditions\, and discuss them in the contexts of Art History and the Humanities;\nDiscuss the relationships between past and present cultural traditions as they are articulated in Mexican art;\nIdentify and discuss the cross-fertilization of historical\, political\, religious\, economic and visual influences embodied in the art of Mexico\, from interdisciplinary perspectives;\nRecognize the subject matter and content of the course in broader contexts \nAttendance/Absence/Tardiness Policy: If you are registered for the class\, please make every effort to be on time and participate. \nElectronic Device Policy: Students are asked to turn ringer tones on their cell phones off during class—and to take any essential calls on their cell phones outside of the virtual classroom. \nMeet your Instructor: Jill Kiefer \n Dr. Jill Kiefer is an art historian and teaching artist. \nDr. Jill Kiefer is an art historian and teaching artist.
