from the from the CEO County Executive

Summer is an extraordinary time for the arts. Music fills our streets, artists set up their easels outside and the weather lifts our moods, inspiring us to create. ArtsWestchester has plenty in store for us this season. A $20 Billion Problem Whether you are interested in spending your Saturday afternoon at an exhibit on neon lights, spending your Monday in a dance class or taking your child to a Wednesday morning storybook class, our County has something for you. I feel fortunate to have this organization in our County to inspire our residents to participate in the arts. ArtsWestchester’s monthly ArtsNews publication highlights the many cultural opportunities provided for the enjoyment of residents throughout the County. Summer is here, so keep track of upcoming arts and cultural programs by browsing the articles and calendar on these pages. The July issue features:

• a directory of free & affordable outdoor events throughout the County (page A5) • a lineup of world-class music at Caramoor Center for Music & the Arts (page A9) • rarely-exhibited works by Louis Comfort Tiffany at Lyndhurst (page A11)

As you travel our beautiful County, I hope you will take the time to enjoy the arts. m o .c m ah Thank you, yw na pi George Latimer, m fro ge Westchester County Executive ima

The work of ArtsWestchester is made possible with support from I am worried. And I am not alone. My concern is what’s in store for the Westchester County Government. bottom lines for not-for-profits this coming year. The predictions in the George Latimer Benjamin Boykin media are troubling. Some are estimating that a loss of contributions to not- County Executive Chairman, Westchester Board of Legislators for-profit organizations will be in the billions...perhaps somewhere between $13 and $20 billion. These figures are based upon the anticipated fallout of WESTCHESTER BOARD OF LEGISLATORS the recent tax legislation. It’s not that Americans will be less generous. It’s Nancy E. Barr Christopher A. Johnson MaryJane Shimsky that given a choice, Americans will take an automatic deduction rather than Catherine Borgia Michael Kaplowitz John G. Testa itemize. The motivation to write a check and itemize is gone. What used Gordon A. Burrows Damon R. Maher David Tubiolo to be a mental incentive to write that check and declare our generosity on Kitley S. Covill Catherine Parker Alfreda A. Williams our tax return is now gone. The urge to write the $100, $250 or $500 check Margaret A. Cunzio Virginia Perez Lyndon Williams has been wiped away and charitable giving is the poorer for it. With federal cutbacks on social programs and growing community needs, there is a case to be made for the idea of making the charitable deduction universal, so that Thanks to our generous supporters all filers, including non-itemizers, can utilize this provision of the tax code.

And America, Bloomingdales, Benerofe Properties, Berkeley College, The Thomas and Agnes Carvel Foundation, make no mistake, the arts are part of that safety net.

ArtsWestchester Triennial Artists Express Meaning Through Process

In ArtsWestchester Triennial, fifteen Hudson Valley artists are highlighted in a showcase of “what’s now and what’s new” in the visual art scene. At the core of many of their works is the process by which they were created. These processes bring additional meaning to the artworks. In Michael Brown’s installations, what appear to be broken mirrors are actually the result of a much more involved practice during which the artist uses a broken mirror as a template for his final stainless steel installations. Brown, who was a welder for the Mario M. Cuomo Bridge, then cuts everything by hand. This process helps to extend the single moment of aggression that caused the glass to break. Jayoung Yoon’s delicate sculptures are made with the artist’s hair, which she seamlessly weaves, strand by strand, onto the sculpture’s framework. In Yoon’s “The Skull,” the shape of a skull is adorned with this hair. According to the artist: “The skull represents the cycles of life and death and the transparent feeling of the hair sculpture represents the temporality and morality.” Peter Bynum happened upon the practice of his current works due to an accident in his studio; however, the works are purposefully rendered with precision. In Bynum’s large-scale works, acrylic paint trapped between panes of glass is lit from behind. The shifting of paint during this process expresses an energy of movement that bring static patterns to life. The exhibition is on view through July 28 in ArtsWestchester’s downtown White Plains gallery. For more info, visit artsw.org/triennial2018. Detail from Psychedelia: In the Beginning by Peter Bynum

Artworks by Incarcerated Men and Women on Display in Ossining

Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) uses the creative arts, including theater, writing and visual arts, in order to develop and expand critical life skills of the incarcerated men and women it serves. As a result, more than 60 works by RTA prisoner members from five maximum and medium security prisons will be on display at Ossining Public Library Art Gallery through July 31. The works in Images from Behind Prison Walls range from painting and charcoal to pen and makeup, and tackle topics such as prison life, freedom and mental well-being. Artist Ivie DeMolina painted a pair of red stilettos because, in her words: “it’s the closest [she gets] to wearing them,” while Hector Rodriguez’s painting is inspired by nature since, as he explains, “nature’s magic reminds [him] of [his] mother.” Magical Garden by Hector Rodriguez A public reception on July 14 will present an opportunity for guests to meet two formerly incarcerated prisoners who have work in the show, Jeffrey Clemente and Amaury Bonilla. Bonilla, who served ten years in Sing Sing Prison, explained: “Through this exhibit, viewers will gain awareness that [prisoners are] not just a number. We’re human beings able to express ourselves in numerous ways.” RTA, which partnered with Ossining Public Library, Ossining Arts Council and Sing Sing Prison Museum for this exhibition, has been effective in decreasing its members’ “return to prison rate.” While the national return rate is more than 50%, the rate of members who have participated in RTA’s program is less than 7%.

Early and Rarely-Exhibited Works by Louis Comfort Tiffany on View at Lyndhurst Mansion

When one hears the last name “Tiffany,” they often think of the jewelry company Tiffany & Co., or its founder’s son, designer and artist Louis Comfort Tiffany. It is the latter Tiffany whose stained glass lamps and windows are recognized in museums around the world. Through September 24, more than fifty early and rarely-exhibited works by Louis Comfort Tiffany will be on display at Lyndhurst Mansion and its art gallery. While his work with stained glass is represented in the exhibition, Becoming Tiffany instead focuses on the artist’s early career and his transition from painter to designer. Early paintings reveal Tiffany’s documentation of industrialization along the Hudson River as well as his consideration of racial inequality in the North. However, in the 1880s, paintings proved too challenging for the market, thereby setting his course as an interior decorator. After this, Near Eastern influences appear in Tiffany’s decorative patterns after his travels to Egypt and Morocco and his work designing synagogues helped him to establish motifs in his decorative pieces.

Also emphasized in Becoming Tiffany is the relationship between Lyndhurst Mansion’s owners and the artist. Railroad tycoon Jay Gould and his daughter Helen, neighbors to Tiffany’s summer home in Irvington, were early purchasers of the artist’s work. Helen continued collecting Tiffany pieces even after her father’s death, commissioning memorial windows for her parents and outfitted the Mansion’s rooms with lamps and shades as the estate became electrified. The lamps on display in the exhibition reflect the Detail from Pushing Off the Boat, Sea Bright, New Jersey, 1887 by Louis Comfort Tiffany (photo courtesy of Nassau placement of items during that time.

Weaving Into the Fabric of History at Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art

Israeli fiber artist Orly Cogan collaborates with unnamed women of generations past. The foundation of her work is the utilitarian craftwork of women from previous eras – vintage materials like tablecloths and baby linens – onto which she crochets, embroiders and paints her experiences as a modern woman. Summer Lovin’, her solo exhibition at Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art (HVCCA) in Peekskill, displays seven of the artist's works through July 29. According to HVCCA Co-Founder and Director Livia Straus: “[Cogan’s works] bring back memories of visiting grandparents’ homes…but upon investigating, the imagery is raw, feminist and family-based – domestication stripped of second-skin clothing.” Cogan’s works tell parallel and converging narratives that address the modesty of times gone by with a contrasting portrayal of a more liberated contemporary woman. Narratives, literally woven into the fabric of history, are updated to explore and address themes such as sexuality, relationship dynamics, stereotypes and sex-positive imagery.

International Music and Dance at New Rochelle Public Library

This July, New Rochelle Public Library will bring Greek, Jewish, Native American and Middle Eastern cultures to its stage through the artistic customs of each respective culture. For the 35th year, the Library’s International Music and Dance series embraces traditions of music, dance and song as told from unique perspectives. The series kicks off on July 10 with the Holy Trinity Dance Troupe of the New Rochelle Greek Orthodox Church. The troupe will perform authentic dances from mainland Greece and its islands. On July 17, traditional Jewish dance and music take the stage with the multi-generational Westchester Klezmer Program. Consisting of children, teens and adults, the group implements both classic and modern Klezmer music into its repertoire. On July 24, performing artists from Redhawk Native American Arts Council will educate the public, in full regalia, about Native American heritage through song, dance and theater in an event that will encourage audience participation. The series will end with Arabian dancing by Aszmara. The performer will be accompanied by music from Armenia, Turkey and Egypt. All events take place in the Library’s Ossie Davis Theater. For more info, visit nrpl.org.
