SUMMARY:PORTALS | Art Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:PORTALS\nMUTSU CRISPIN\nOctober 7-30\, 2022OPENING: Friday\, October 7\, 5-9pm\nhours: Thurs-Sat\, 11-5pm\, Sun 2-5pm (or by chance/appt.)\n118 Eliiot St.\, Brattleboro\, VT 05301\n118 ELLIOT PRESENTS “PORTALS”\, AN EXHIBIT OF SCULPTURE\, DRAWINGS AND PHOTOS EXPLORING SPIRITUAL PASSAGE. \n‘I like to boil a piece down until it’s essential\, until it almost disappears\, until the stark poetry of it rings clear.’ ~Mutsu Crispin \nFrom October 7-30\, 118 Elliot Street Gallery in downtown Brattleboro\, VT will present a large exhibit of sculptures\, drawings and photos entitled Portals by artist Mutsu Crispin (aka Johnny DiGeorge). The artist brings a playful energy to work exploring transformation and spiritual passage\, including pieces related to the independent film Redbelly and to the upcoming children’s book\, The Falling Stars of Emerworld. \nAfter living in beloved Vermont for 2 decades\, the artist is soon moving his base of operations to Haiku\, Hawaii and the show represents both a retrospective of this period in New England\, and a conjuration around the upcoming life shift. \nMany of the sculptures are crafted from thin layers of vibrantly tinted plexiglass\, laser cut and assembled into various designs\, many fantastical or hypnotic. The eponymous Portals series utilizes a small number of simple elements to map the passage through various life transformations: Love\, Initiation\, Shadow Extraction… The pieces are puzzled together\, with the same underlying designs explored through myriad palettes of color\, mirrored reflection & transparency. Visual stories are told in multiple ways\, drawing out nuances of the narrative and different poetic associations. In the series Uprising\, ten variations of the same large sculpture chart personal and communal upheaval and ascension. LEDs and mirrors are utilized in several pieces to expressively utilize the illusion of infinite depth. \nAlso on display are pieces from his bouncy ball series\, where 100’s of balls are coaxed into place between sheets of plexiglass\, creating roiling pools of emerging and disintegrating shapes\, suggesting essential forms discovered through a telescope\, microscope\, or x-ray. \n“Much of my work is concerned with how to evoke or visualize subtle phenomena — physical\, conceptual\, emotional\, spiritual — while taking a joyful interest in the qualities of diverse materials and precise engineering.” \nMutsu Crispin / John DiGeorge grew up in a rural suburb of Atlanta\, GA and studied Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard University. After a stint working in the film industry in New York City he moved to southern Vermont\, splitting his time between artistic ventures and design work for many local businesses and individuals\, including the Brattleboro Museum\, VT Jazz Center\, Brattleboro Hospice\, Boys & Girls Club\, Oak Meadow\, GS Precision\, Clear Solutions\, Altiplano\, Mitchell Giddings Fine Arts\, Superfresh\, Experiential Tools\, Laura Zindel\, David Brewster\, Jared Flynn\, Johnny Swing\, and many others! \nSpecial thanks to John & Lissa at 118 Elliot and to Roger\, Tom and the staff at Clear Solutions in Hinsdale\, New Hampshire where most of the pieces in the show were fabricated.

SUMMARY:Architecture + Design Film Series continues with 'Frederick Law Olmstead and America's Urban Parks' on Wednesday October 17 at 6:30pm
DESCRIPTION:The film features the voices of Kevin Kline and Kerry Washington. \n151 years after Frederick Law Olmsted designed New York City’s Central Park with Calvert Vaux\, it remains an undisputed haven of tranquility amidst one of the largest\, tallest\, and most unnatural places on earth. \nOlmsted and America’s Urban Parks\, a one hour documentary\, examines the formation of America’s first great city parks in the late 19th century through the enigmatic eyes of Frederick Law Olmsted (1822 – 1903)\, visionary urban planner and landscape architect. \nWith incredible foresight that spanned centuries\, Olmsted brought nourishing green spaces to New York\, Boston\, Chicago\, San Francisco\, Atlanta\, Louisville\, and dozens of other US cities. Throughout his working life\, Olmsted and his firm carried out over 500 commissions\, nearly 100 of which were public parks. The parks\, he held\, were to be vital democratic spaces in cities\, where citizens from all walks of life could intermingle and be refreshed. \nPrior to officially committing to landscape architecture\, Olmsted was a New York Times correspondent to the Confederate states\, the manager of a California gold mine\, and General Secretary of the United States Sanitary Commission during the Civil War. The man\, a workaholic by today’s standards\, plagued with chronic ailments\, spent the latter half of his life devoting nearly every waking minute to creating restorative green spaces for overworked city dwellers. In large part through his own words\, this film weaves together his engaging and poignant personal story with those of the lasting masterpieces he left for us today. \n \nCompleted On Camera Interview Subjects:\nCharles Beveridge – Author\, Frederick Law Olmsted: Designing the American Landscape; series editor\, The Papers of Frederick Law Olmsted\, Department of History\, American University\, Washington D.C. \nWitold Rybczynski – Professor of urbanism\, University of Pennsylvania; author\, A Clearing in the Distance: Frederick Law Olmsted and America in the Nineteenth Century. \nArleyn Levee – Former chairperson\, National Association of Olmsted Parks; board member\, Emerald Necklace Conservancy; Olmsted historian. \nBetsy Shure Gross – Co-founder\, National Association of Olmsted Parks; former vice president\, Emerald Necklace Conservancy; board member\, City Parks Alliance. \nAdrian Benepe – Commissioner\, New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. \nDoug Blonsky – President\, Central Park Conservancy; administrator and landscape architect\, Central Park. \nSara Cedar Miller – Official historian and board member\, Central Park Conservancy; author and photographer\, Central Park\, An American Masterpiece and Seeing Central Park: The Official Guide to the World’s Greatest Urban Park. \nTupper Thomas – President\, Prospect Park Alliance; administrator\, Prospect Park. \nMichael Dukakis – Former governor\, Commonwealth of Massachusetts; Democratic nominee for US President in 1980; professor of political science\, Northeastern University. \nMorrison Heckscher – Lawrence A.
