BY AMANDA MANITACH WHO Alice Gosti, 28-year-old dancer, choreographer, performer and filmmaker from Perugia, Italy. Gosti moved to Seattle eight years ago to study dance and film at the University of Washington. Her work is inspired by durational performance art by artists like Marina Abramovic , Doug Aitken, Matthew Barney, Gina Pane, Yves Klein and Jan Fabre. STYLE GUIDE “As a kid, most of my clothes were hand-me-downs from my brother and family friends, so I’ve always mixed and matched. I love primary colors. I think of Mondrian a lot. Nail polish helps me not chew my nails. I choose a pair of shoes only if I can run in them. Underwear is the most difficult and important item of clothing.” ARCHITECT OF EXPERIENCE Gosti calls herself a “space transformer,” a title bor- rowed from Yoko Ono. Her performance pieces consider every sensual element of the environment, manipulating temperature, taste, sound, smell and textures to evoke memories and emotions in the audience. “I am interested in eradicating the misconception of dance as an art form for the elite,” Gosti says. “I would like to move beyond the fish-tank feeling in which dancers are seen as beautiful, exotic fish.” RUNS IN THE FAMILY The child of artists (her Italian father was an architect, her American mother a graphic designer), Gosti was always the kid running around at art openings. Eventually her parents began interactive installations and perfor- mances as the artist team SANDFORD&GOSTI. “Dreamers themselves, they taught me early on to follow mine,” Gosti says. HOME IS WHERE THE ART IS Growing up bilingual, Gosti never felt like she quite belonged one place or another. “Whenever I was in Italy, I fantasized about living in the States,” she says. “When I finally moved to here, I wanted to go back. Dance and art have been about creating my own language, my own world. I wanted to create a home for myself wherever I went.” LAUREN MAX 4 ENCORE STAGES increase long-term organizational and funding sustainability.

The works include site-specific temporary and permanent installations, as well as three works on long-term loan from the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. Hirshhorn Sculpture Loans (now on view) Lunar Bird by Joan Miró, 1945, Wheeler Courtyard, West Building Three Red Lines by George Rickey, 1966, The Plaza Untitled by Ellsworth Kelly, 1986, South Lawn, West Building Three monumental sculptures by masters of 20th-century art—Joan Miró, George Rickey, and Ellsworth Kelly—arrived in August on long-term loan from the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. Installed in various sites around West Building, including the entrance Plaza, front lawn, and North Garden, these works animate the NCMA landscape with a diverse array of artistic expression. Lunar Bird by Joan Miró resembles ancient votive sculptures and reflects his interest in the cosmos, with its crescent moon–shaped face and arms reaching toward the sky. A figure in the early-20th-century surrealist art movement, Miró saw art as a way for the subconscious mind to express itself.

  • Outlooks: Heather Hart, a Site-Specific Installation and Interactive Sculpture, Will Be on View at Storm King from May 13 – November 26, 2017
    OUTLOOKS: HEATHER HART, A SITE-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION AND INTERACTIVE SCULPTURE, WILL BE ON VIEW AT STORM KING FROM MAY 13 – NOVEMBER 26, 2017 Exhibition to Include Performances, Discussions, and Other Events PRESS PREVIEW: Wednesday, May 10, 2017 RSVP to [email protected] Mountainville, NY, April 5, 2017—Outlooks: Heather Hart will be on view at Storm King Art Center from May 13 to November 26, 2017, presenting an interactive sculptural environment in the form of a domestic rooftop, which will be activated by performances, discussions, and other events. Hart’s work spans social and participatory sculpture, drawing, and printmaking, and deals with issues of perception, liminality, history, and spirituality. Hart is the first Outlooks artist to create a work at Storm King that will be activated by programming and public participation. Storm King will respond to the work by expanding its artist-driven programming and further engaging the surrounding community. Outlooks, now in its fifth year, is an exhibition series that invites one emerging or mid-career contemporary artist to engage with Storm King’s landscape and history and create a new, site-specific work to be installed on-site for a single season. Titled The Oracle of Lacuna, the sculpture takes the form of the rooftop of a house that has seemingly fallen to the ground. The sculpture will also contain an interior sanctuary, accessible via a dormer window and a truncated window. Visitors are permitted to both walk upon the rooftop and explore the interior sanctuary. The title of the work references the gap in the written history of the Hudson Valley region that individuals fill with their personal interpretations and fantasies.

  • James Beard As an Engenderer
    International Journal of Advances in Philosophy 2018, 2(1): 24-28 DOI: 10.5923/j.ap.20180201.03 James Beard as an Engenderer Marcia R. Pinheiro IICSE University, DE, USA Abstract In this paper, we talk about the existence and influence of James Beard, a very respected expert in food critique and American cuisine. We try to show his impact on our history and society. Keywords Beard, Cooking, Child, Culture 1. Introduction James Beard, or Beard for short, was born in Portland, America, on May 5, 1903 (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 2), and died in New York, from heart failure, on the 21st of January of 1985 (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 10). Beard’s last cooking class happened in Oregon, 1981, and his last book was Beard on Pasta (1983). The English Mary Elizabeth, and the American John Beard did not have any other kid (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 2). The Dean of the American Cookery (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 1) ran a cooking show, I Love to Eat, from 1946 to 1947 (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 6), and that was the first televised cooking show ever [(American Masters PBS 2017, para. 6), (The Oregon Encyclopedia 2018, para. 1), (Polan 2010, p. 23)]. According to Collins (Collins 2010, p. 1), it was not really seen by many people even because very few had television sets back then (American Masters PBS 2017, 0:46). Beard’s cookbooks have a distinctive and compelling voice in appreciating seasonal and regional food done well, without pretension, for pleasure as much as for sustenance (Polan 2010, p.
