Tattooed Foods: Illustrations by Lisa Jane Smith Gallery 54
Gallery 54
54 E. Genesee St.,
Skaneateles
It would be difficult to be more straight-forward in describing Lisa Jane Smith's work than she is herself, calling it "sophisticated doodling." Lisa's art is often available at Rochester-area art festivals. She also licenses her art to manufacturers and had her kitchenware debut this past summer. Her work will also be available in a collection of fabric this fall. The artwork included in the Gallery 54 show will feature illustrations of common fruits and vegetables along with the tea towels and books regularly available in this popular upscale gallery of fine art and crafts. All her work is sure to find its way into Central New York homes.

Pulled from the Light Work Collection, the exhibition highlights work by Admas Habteslasie, Amy Stein, Andrea Robbin and Max Becher, Beatrix Reinhardt, Brian Ulrich, Deborah Willis, Irina Rozovsky, James Casebere, Linda Connor, Margaret Stratton, Peter Finnemore, Robert Benjamin, Susannah Sayler and Edward Morris, Sylvia de Swaan, Viktor Lugansky, and William Earle WIlliams.

Syracuse
Angela Fraleigh, based in New York City and Allentown, co-opts the techniques, media, and styles of the European Old Masters to create monumental paintings of female figures that explore social constructs of gender, power, and identity.

Ghost Town to Havana Syracuse International Film Festival
Price: $10 individual (multi-film passes available) Coyne Center for the Performing Arts
LeMoyne College,
Syracuse
A street-level story of mentorship and everyday heroism in tough circumstances. A baseball coach's son, estranged in his youth from his father, spends five years on ball fields in inner city Oakland and Havana, following the lives of two extraordinary youth baseball coaches, Roscoe in Oakland and Nicolas in Havana. The coaches meet on videotape and two years of red tape later, Coach Roscoe and nine Oakland players travel to Havana to play Coach Nicolas' team. For one week, the players and coaches eat, dance, swim, argue, and play baseball together. But when the parent of an Oakland player is murdered back home, it brings back the inescapable reality and challenges of life in an American inner city. By Eugene Corr. (2015, USA/Cuba, documentary, 86 minutes)

Cartel Land Syracuse International Film Festival
Price: $10 individual (multi-film passes available) Carrier Theater, Mulroy Civic Center
411 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
A riveting, on-the-ground look at the journeys of two modern-day vigilante groups and their shared enemy—the murderous Mexican drug cartels. In the Mexican state of Michoacán, Dr. Jose Mireles, a small-town physician known as "El Doctor," leads the Autodefensas, a citizen uprising against the violent Knights Templar drug cartel that has wreaked havoc on the region for years. Meanwhile, in Arizona's Altar Valley—a narrow, 52-mile-long desert corridor known as Cocaine Alley—Tim "Nailer" Foley, an American veteran, heads a small paramilitary group called Arizona Border Recon, whose goal is to stop Mexico's drug wars from seeping across the border. Filmmaker Matthew Heineman embeds himself in the heart of darkness as Nailer, El Doctor, and the cartel each vie to bring their own brand of justice to a society where institutions have failed. Cartel Land is a chilling, visceral meditation on the breakdown of order and the blurry line between good and evil. By Matthew Heineman. (2015, USA, Oscar nominated documentary, 100 minutes)

(2016, Belgium, documentary/fiction, 52 minutes) Nothing Escapes My Eyes Inspired by the famous opera Aida by Giuseppe Verdi, the film depicts in a metaphoric way current issues of cultural identity, loss and the pressures to conform. Aida premiered in Cairo in 1871 at the Khedivial Opera House. One hundred years later, the building was completely destroyed by fire. In its place a big parking garage was built — nevertheless, to this day the place is still named Opera Square: Meidan el'Opera. By David Krippendorff. (2014, Egypt/Germany, drama, 14 minutes) Quenottes Quenottes (Pearlies) is a story about a little mouse, but not just any mouse. It is THE little mouse, or tooth fairy, of your childhood. The one that brought you your first coin in exchange for the tooth under your pillow. In everybody's mind, the little mouse is a benevolent and generous character. What if it isn't ? What if it is actually a neurotic psychopath obsessing about its collection of dental trophies? If a tooth is missing, it simply must be replaced. By any means necessary... By Pascal Thiebaux and Gil Pinheito. (2015, Luxembourg/France, drama, 12 minutes)

On the Map and An Average Story Syracuse International Film Festival
Price: $10 individual (multi-film passes available) Jewish Community Center
5655 Thompson Rd.,
Dewitt
Dani Menkin's On the Map recounts the story of the underdog 1976-77 Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team who toppled the four-time defending Soviet Union team, and put Israel firmly "on the map." Israel then defeated Italy in the finals, and won the historic European Cup Basketball Championship title. When the team returned to Israel, 200,000 fans were celebrating in Tel Aviv to welcome them home. Featuring interviews with the American and Israeli athletes who made history, On the Map combines the pulse-pounding action of a high-stakes basketball game with an incendiary political situation during the Cold War. (2016, Israel/USA, documentary, 78 minutes) Menkin will be present for a Q&A after the screening. In An Average Story, by Yaniv Segalovich, Avi Cohen has just been informed that he is the most average man who ever lived. Overnight, he reluctantly becomes a national icon and instant celebrity. With his wife's enthusiastic urging, they translate the situation into a business venture that goes surprisingly awry. (2016, Israel, 20 minutes)

Deadlock Syracuse International Film Festival
Price: $10 individual (multi-film passes available) Coyne Center for the Performing Arts
LeMoyne College,
Syracuse
Deadlock is the second installment in the five-documentary film series dedicated to the Armenian diaspora by filmmaker Harutyun Khachatryan. The film's main character is a longtime friend of the director. After having obtained a green card for the United States, he leaves his homeland to search for a brighter future in the land of the free and the brave. Unfortunately, the USA is not what it pretends to be through advertisement and pop culture. A world dominated by the rule of profit constantly crushes hopes and lives. Working in a car yard and barely scraping by the necessary to survive on a daily basis, he starts longing for his birthplace. Even though he yearns to go back to Armenia and works relentlessly and tirelessly, he cannot afford it. Deadlock is a painful musing on exile and disillusionment as well as a political inquiry into what it means to live in a capitalist country. Khachatryan's approach is a deeply humanistic one and his sensitive observational way of filming allows the material to resonate and reverberate in all its poetic and political complexity.

Snow Monkey Syracuse International Film Festival
Price: $10 individual (multi-film passes available) Carrier Theater, Mulroy Civic Center
411 Montgomery St.,
Syracuse
George Gittoes' documentary about street kids in Jalalabad, Afghanistan, focuses on three gangs: the Snow Monkeys, who sell ice creams from handcarts; the Ghostbusters, who wave smoke into cars to exorcise spirits and extract small tips; and a posse of thugs headed by razor-wielding 10-year-old Steel. They're all old before their time, and Gittoes' mission is to give them back some small part of their childhood while offering a glimpse of an adult life beyond the street. Towards the end there's shocking footage of a bomb blast, filmed by a 13-year-old Snow Monkey. That such things happen is reason to despair; that a street kid has been empowered to show them to the world is some small reason to hope. (2015, Australia/Norway/Afghanistan, 150 minutes)

2384 James St.,

Based on the events and protests of the historic Velvet Revolution in the Czech Republic, the film tells a story of living under Communism in 1989 from the perspective of students, artists and dissidents. In November of 1989, three friends Jiri (Filip Cil), Petr (Filip Tomsa), and Ondrej (Pavel Richta) take part in listening to banned music from the United States, create works of art, and wish to leave Czechoslovakia and the ideals of Communism far behind them. Unfortunately for the trio, no one can leave the country unless they wish to be branded as traitors to the Communist Empire and will be arrested on return to Czechoslovakia. In order to keep themselves sane, Jiri, Petr, and Ondrej play hockey for the Red Stars and join in the rebel protests every night in hopes of making a difference. Along with their friend Martina (Anita Krausova), the boys soon entangle themselves into the heart of the Velvet Revolution and become wanted captives of the Communist Officers. By Gary Griffin, and Josef Lustig and Jan Tesitel with guest Gary Griffin. (2014, Czech Republic, drama, 90 minutes)

Lizzie Borden Took an Axe
Price: $20 Mansion on James (Barnes Hiscock Mansion)
930 James St.,
Syracuse
A multiple-award winner, Garrett Heater's Lizzie Borden Took an Axe utilizes court transcripts and inquest testimonies to bring the drama to life in a chronologically faithful adaptation. Striving to be the most historically accurate play written regarding the notorious events, the audience is challenged in an unbiased manner to come to their own conclusions as to who perpetrated the crimes. Set throughout the rooms of the mansion, the play recreates scenes leading up to and immediately after the 1892 double-murder of wealthy businessman Andrew Borden and his second wife, Abby Durfee Gray Borden. Both were found mutilated in their home in Fall River, Massachusetts, by hatchet or axe and Andrew's 32 year old daughter Lizzie (step-daughter of Abby) was indicted and stood trial for the crime. She was eventually acquitted of the gruesome homicides and the crime has remained unsolved for over 120 years. Following her acquittal, Lizzie Borden remained in Fall River. Her friends and neighbors, once staunch supporters of her innocence, quickly left her side after the trial and she became a social pariah. Lizzie Borden Took an Axe will thrill audiences once again this fall, having sold out of all performances at the Barnes-Hiscock Mansion over the past two years. Tickets are available at 315-422-2445 or online at www.grbarnes.org/lizzie-borden-took-an-axe.

It's A Wrap! West African Textiles Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"It's A Wrap! West African Textiles" is an exhibition featuring over 40 examples of textiles and their accompanying tools. Drawn from geographically proximate locales in West Africa, including Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon, the textiles on display exemplify woven, stamped, appliqued, and resist-dyed techniques. Organized by Professor Michelle Gilbert, Department of Fine Arts, Trinity College, CT, and featuring objects on loan from the collections of Michelle Gilbert, and the Amyas Naegele and Eve Glasberg Collection, NY, this exhibition is sponsored in part by the Maxwell African Scholars Union, Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs, Syracuse University. In all cultures clothing does more than simply cover the body. It communicates subtle visual messages about the owner. What and how it is worn, can be interpreted as a statement of flamboyant ostentation or modest conservatism. It may signal the prominence of a wealthy and powerful king, the presence of a deity, or the existence of a mad man. The textile culture in West African is very old, weaving is documented at Igbo Ukwu, Nigeria in the 9th-10th century and by the 11th century weaving flourished in Mali. Used in a variety of ways, African textiles can be presented as gifts to the living and the dead; used in a bride's dowry; displayed at weddings and funerals; used as blankets for protection from the cold and mosquitoes; spread on the ground for a chief to walk over or placed in layers to cover his palanquin or funeral bed. Textiles are worn to flatter or flirt, to display power or express silent insults, or to show common group identity. The artists' aesthetic sensibility is revealed in the cloth's intricate patterns, textures and technical flair.

Price: Free ArtRage Gallery
505 Hawley Ave.,
Syracuse
Nine Mile Press, the publisher of Jackie Warren-Moore's new book, Where I Come From, will host a poetry reading and book signing event. "Jackie Warren-Moore's poems take a good, clear look at our world and its 'passing of civility.' She writes with passion and rage about 'Uncle Joe' and his stealing of her innocence, and can take on the voice of a Trayvon or a Grandmother with equal force and insight. Her concluding poem, where 'the women gather in circles' and 'make plans to rock the world,' speaks to the passion and fervor with which she takes on that world, and pushes us to do the same. These poems are humble and proud and full of the power of change." -poet, Rachel Guido deVries

Adaptation by Lori Allen Ohm, based on George Romero and John Russo's original film. Fall-out from a satellite probe shot to Venus returns to Earth carrying a mysterious radiation that transforms the unburied dead into flesh-eating zombies. Seven people trapped in an isolated farmhouse, held hostage by the ravenous ghouls, begin to turn on each other as the dead encroach. A gripping terror-filled monochromatic play that brings all the fright of the cult classic to life. This blend of thrilling horror laced with touches of black humor envelops the audience in the action and unfolds into a shocking theatrical ending.

It highlights many individuals of humble beginnings who, despite their circumstance, or in some cases because of it, realized their power to affect change through their activism.

In Houston, third-generation deli man Ziggy Gruber has built arguably the finest delicatessen restaurant in the U.S. His story augmented by the stories of iconic delis such as Katz's, 2nd Avenue Deli, Nate 'n' Al, Carnegie, and the Stage embodies a tradition indelibly linked to its savory, nostalgic foods.

Her work will also be available in a collection of fabric this fall.

It's A Wrap! West African Textiles Syracuse University Art Museum
Syracuse University Art Museum, Shaffer Art Building
Syracuse University,
Syracuse
"It's A Wrap! West African Textiles" is an exhibition featuring over 40 examples of textiles and their accompanying tools. Drawn from geographically proximate locales in West Africa, including Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon, the textiles on display exemplify woven, stamped, appliqued, and resist-dyed techniques. Organized by Professor Michelle Gilbert, Department of Fine Arts, Trinity College, CT, and featuring objects on loan from the collections of Michelle Gilbert, and the Amyas Naegele and Eve Glasberg Collection, NY, this exhibition is sponsored in part by the Maxwell African Scholars Union, Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs, Syracuse University. In all cultures clothing does more than simply cover the body. It communicates subtle visual messages about the owner. What and how it is worn, can be interpreted as a statement of flamboyant ostentation or modest conservatism. It may signal the prominence of a wealthy and powerful king, the presence of a deity, or the existence of a mad man. The textile culture in West African is very old, weaving is documented at Igbo Ukwu, Nigeria in the 9th-10th century and by the 11th century weaving flourished in Mali. Used in a variety of ways, African textiles can be presented as gifts to the living and the dead; used in a bride's dowry; displayed at weddings and funerals; used as blankets for protection from the cold and mosquitoes; spread on the ground for a chief to walk over or placed in layers to cover his palanquin or funeral bed. Textiles are worn to flatter or flirt, to display power or express silent insults, or to show common group identity. The artists' aesthetic sensibility is revealed in the cloth's intricate patterns, textures and technical flair.
