| Fire, Fire Burning Bright - Street Performance | |
Thursday, August 19, 2010
12:15pm
Centerway Square
Teatro Finisterre (World's End Theatre) will present Fire, Fire, Burning Bright, a modern day "medicine show". The piece is performed by Gigi Alvaré who plays a character named "St.Fumador" and is accompanied by assistants; "Les Fumettes" and two thirteen foot long dragons pulling a cart.
Alvaré received a Crossroads grant to perform street theatre pieces throughout 2010 which revolve around seasonal themes both on the natural and symbolic plane. The program encourages the creation of unique, artist-driven, site-specific, public arts projects occurring in non-arts venues. This piece, approximately 20 minutes long, plays with illuminating the nature of fire, transformation, beauty and light. At once humorous and profound it involves visual, scripted, as well as improvised material. "Through clowning, important ideas about the nature of existence can be brought to light'' says Alvaré.
The name " Finisterre" comes from the Latin; finis terrae and translates to "world's end" or "lands end" and refers to an actual place in the region of Galicia, Spain. Finisterre is the western most point of the coast; at the end of the ancient pilgrimage route; El Camino de Santiago.
This project is made possible in part, with public funds from the New York state Council on the Arts' Decentralization Program, administered locally by the ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes and will be performed in Centerway Square, Corning NY on Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 12:15 during the Corning Farmers Market. |

| Assembled Meanings @ Exhibit A | |
On exhibit through August 28, 2010
Exhibit A is pleased to announce Assembled Meanings. A solo exhibition of found object and image based assemblages by artist Gerald Mead. The OPENING RECEPTION is Friday, July 16, 5:30 - 8:00 PM. A GALLERY TALK with Gerald Mead takes place Saturday, August 28 at 5:00 PM.
Gerald Mead has spent years collecting things; antiquated photographic materials, medical slides, religious ephemera, and so on. Mead says, "I've long been intrigued by discarded objects and found images, regarding them as potent and poetic cultural artifacts." He goes on to explain, "Appropriating (and subverting) these objects and images represent not only my aesthetic and intuitive choices; it also introduces a dialogue with the viewer about how objects and images are observed and interrelated and how strategies of recombination affect their interpretation." The diminutive works presented in Assembled Meanings represent several of Gerald Mead's recent series.
Exhibit A is located upstairs in the Pure Design Building, 39-41 East Market Street, Corning NY. Regular gallery hours are Thursday and Friday 11-6:00 PM, Saturday 4-6:00 PM. Interested parties can also call (607) 259-1008 to visit the gallery by appointment. |
