FINE ARTS GALLERY

JOEL CARRIERO Making Is ThinkingMONDAY, JANUARY 27 through FRIDAY, MARCH 6

New York City-based artist Joel Carriero has built an extensive body of work inspired by art history. Using art reproductions from textbooks and magazines as his source material, he copies, enlarges, and cuts the images into smaller pieces, then assembles them into mosaic-like collages that transform the familiar into something new.

STUDENT SHOWMONDAY, MAY 4 through MONDAY, MAY 11

An exhibition of selected student works from Art & Design curriculum classes features drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, graphic design, and digital media.

The Fine Arts Gallery is located on the third floor of the Hankin Academic Arts Building, across from the theatre. It is open Monday through Saturday 10:00 am - 3:00 pm, and Thursday evenings 4:00 - 6:00 pm. Gallery is closed from December 24 to January 21. Exhibitions and receptions are free and open to the public. For a complete schedule

of gallery events, please visit www.sunywcc.edu/gallery or call 914-606-6621.

Westchester Community College offers a number of academic programs in the arts. They include dance, drama, film, music (vocal, instrumental, computer-engineered) and

visual/computer art classes. Smart Arts programming enriches the classes as students are given opportunities to meet guest artists up close and personal, as well as, participate in

residency custom-designed outreach activities.

This literary project is a collection from the contributing students, staff and faculty, undertaken by the Office of Cultural Affairs at Westchester Community College.

What is haunting when it comes to the arts could be commonly referred to as spells, spirits or superstitions. They haunt, linger, and get passed down from generation to generation. Are the spells, spirits, and superstitions that haunt us real? What is meant by something being real? Is it something written down or talked about, documented, and spread publicly?

In this book are spells, spirits and superstitions that have been gathered in two possible ways. Either they exist out there, having been found, researched and summarized, or they are new, having been created and inspired by what already exists. As the reader, you are invited to peruse the spirits, spells, superstitions in the arts as presented... and then decide if they are “fact” or “fiction.”

The game rules in exploring the book’s content allow the reader to experience spells, spirits, and superstitions lurking in the various arts genres, as well as, those believed or practiced by many artists. The guessing game is to determine which of the book’s content is fact or fiction. The spirits, spells, superstitions that are fact or fiction will be identified with either wording on the back page, along with the actual source or source of inspiration for the related material.

So, try your luck in figuring out which spell, spirit, and superstition is fact or fiction, and be inspired to come up with some of your own, either through research or imagination!

Proceeds from both book and Kindle sales support student and community outreach activities. To purchase, go online at www.amazon.com and search for: Into the SmartArts: Spells, Spirits, & Superstitions.

This is the fourth publication in the Into the SmartArts series. The first three publications can be found also on www.amazon.com in paperback, and the first and third in Kindle format as well.

NAI-NI CHEN Song of the PhoenixSATURDAY, MAY 9 8:00 pm

Experience the majestic thunder of the martial arts, the mysterious whisper of poetry or the flowing lines of calligraphy through the global language of dance. This company bridges the grace of Asian elegance and American dynamism. Ground-breaking works focus on themes from ancient Chinese legends that reflect current issues to purely abstract and contemporary dances. This Asian American company celebrates the cross-cultural experience and the immigrant’s journey, bringing forth the challenges of identity, authenticity, and equality. Original and unique choreography seamlessly blends ancient rituals and modern ideas.

In Celebration of Asian Heritage!

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27 11:00 am - 12:15 pm and 12:30 - 1:45 pm

THURSDAY, APRIL 2 11:00 am - 12:15 pm and 12:30 - 1:45 pm

Steven Salvatore is a young adult author and educator. Steven’s debut novel, The Other Side of Silence, will be published by Bloomsbury in the winter of 2021. The novel is about a genderqueer student who dreams of being a diva like their hero Mariah Carey. When they are cast in the lead female role in the school musical, they must fight against the school administration’s closed-mindedness. Steven prefers the term queer (identifying as both gay and genderqueer), and uses pronouns he/him/his (more regularly) or they/them. He currently teaches at Westchester Community College and Pace University.

Dr. Neely will discuss how to spin personal interests into viable scholarship. Students will hear about his personal journey as a writer as well as how they can research and write about their own interests. One summer afternoon in 1999, as Dr. Neely lay on his sofa, annoyed by the ice cream truck music, he wondered: “What is the deal with this damn music?” He asked around and began to write. What started as a short paper grew into a chapter length study. Dr. Neely’s ice cream truck music scholarship is now widely recognized and has been referenced in national newspapers like the New York Times, in various publications, and on websites like Vice and the BBC.

The reading and lecture series lets the best of today’s writers share their secrets with literary aficionados.

Presentations take place in the Gateway Center — Davis Auditorium. (Free and open to the public)

Run away from home and be back in time for dinner with the BINDLESTIFF FAMILY CIRKUS and its unique hybrid of vaudeville and circus spectacle.

Join us for an afternoon of jugglers, acrobats, plate spinning, sword swallowing, brain twisters and other risk-taking, gravity defying feats set to live music in a fun, funny, and interactive show. Perfect for the entire family! (Bring your favorite circus toy to enjoy the fun!)

JOHNNY PEERS & THE MUTTVILLE COMIX with DAVID DARWIN—ONE MAN SIDESHOW

Opening this double-billed matinée is the hilarious America’s Got Talent’s David Darwin in his sideshow, followed by Johnny Peers with his comedy of personality-plus dogs, all coming to Westchester to tickle your funny bones! David Darwin opens with laugh-a-minute riveting feats of juggling, swordplay, and fire. Following is a slapstick comedy like no other where Johnny leads a dozen rescue dogs through challenging and hilarious tricks. Johnny and his sensational canine team have appeared in Ringling Bros & Barnum and Bailey Circus, Circus of the Stars and the David Letterman Show.

CHIAOZZA Crafting Space ChromaticallyTHURSDAY, MARCH 19 through MONDAY, APRIL 27

CHIAOZZA, the collaborative studio of Adam Frezza & Terri Chiao, explores play and craft across a variety of mediums. Experimenting with vibrant color relationships, iconic shape-making, and perspectival movement in the design of painted wooden structures and large environmental works, the duo’s work straddles fields of painting, sculpture, design, and architecture.

FACT or FICTION? Guess if this tale is true...“It was said that Picasso was a very superstitious man and that he believed in magic. He never made a will because he was terrified of death and believed that not making a will would keep him from dying. He never allowed people to talk about death in his presence.” — Amara Simmonds, Into the SmartArts: Spells, Spirits, & Superstitions
