Barn husband's doing eachother's warpaint is cute. So are Ironhide and Will Lenox.

Though I can also see it with Bulkhead and Wheeljack doing Miko's first warpaint to prove she's a Wrecker. Or Raf doing Bumblebee's paint to cheer him up him up.

Or when you have a shared species base and the human soldiers are puting on grease paint in the open so the bots start doing their warpaint too.

Yes

Exactly

Bulkhead and Wheeljack using mass displacement to help Miko do her warpaint would be so ungodly amounts of adorable, yes. Yes. Yes. Also Raf helping Bee, yesssssss.

And on the bots seeing humans donning the grease paint so they go "oh it's go time? Oh let's break out the good warpaint" and yes yes the humans noticing this yes yes. I like this option so much how could you tell

Rebecca Goodheart, producing artistic director at Elm Shakespeare, and Sarah Bowles, director of education, began the festival by welcoming everyone to ECA’s theater at 55 Audubon St. ​“This is the first annual Elm Shakespeare youth festival,” she announced to loud applause. ​“You will have bragging rights for the next 30 years,” she said. ​“We hope this will grow and grow, because we believe that every young person in New Haven deserves to have a personal and impactful relationship with these words and these plays. We believe this is how we change the world. We’re so glad that you are with us for the start of this journey.”

Before coming to Elm Shakespeare, both Bowles and Goodheart had worked at Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, Mass., which has been doing a youth festival for decades. ​“That is, in many ways, how we became the artists that we are and the educators that we are,” Goodheart said. ​“They helped us know how to do this.”

Gallery visit: MOMA (6.7.24) - PART 1

Ja'Tovia Gary's THE GIVERNY SUITE (2019, sculptural installation -settee, twenty-five painted frames, altar to Yemaya (candle, seashells, anchor, fruit, plate, vase, flowers, glass jar of molasses, glass jar of rum, and fabric), altar to Oshun (candle, mirror, cowrie shells, fruit, cinnamon sticks, plate, vases, flowers, glass jar of white wine, glass jar of honey, and fabric) - and short film (39 mins 51 secs))

Description: "Filmed in Harlem, New York, and in Claude Monet's gardens in Giverny, France, THE GIVERNY SUITE is a cinematic poem that advocates for the safety and bodily autonomy of Black women. Employing techniques including hand-painted film animation and montage editing, Gary first developed the work during an artist residency in Giverny, where the gardens offered a space of respite. Centrally featured are person-on-the-street interviews in which the artist approaches women at the intersection of Lenox Avenue (also known as Malcolm X Boulevard) and West 116th Street and asks, "Do you feel safe?" These interviews are interspersed with footage of singer Nina Simone, performer Josephine Baker, political activist Fred Hampton, and Diamond Reynolds recounting the killing of her boyfriend Philando Castile by police in 2016. The installation also includes antique furniture as well as altars dedicated to the Yoruba deities Yemaya and Oshun. "Healing is at the root of the work," Gary explains. "Making art is a transformative process that transmutes pain or trauma into something beautiful, useful, functional, instructive."

Positioned near the entrance are two altars devoted to West African orishas: Oshun, the river deity, who represents divine femininity, love, and beauty, is depicted in bright yellow; and Yemaya, the fierce protector of women, who is associated with oceans, fertility, and creativity, is represented by the colors white and blue. Both deities originate from the Yoruban spiritual practice Lucumí, which was carried over to the Americas by African peoples during the transatlantic slave trade. In this work, French Colonial-style antique frames and a slanted settee gesture to colonization's complex legacy as well as the comforts found in many Southern Black grandmothers' homes, including the artist's own."

Mike Kelley's Deodorized Central Mass with Satellites (1991/1999, sculptural installation - plush toys sewn over wood and wire frames with styrofoam packing material, nylon rope, pulleys, steel hardware and hanging plates, fiberglass, car paint, and disinfectant)

Description: "In 1987 Mike Kelley began to make sculptures from stuffed animals, which he described as "the adult's perfect model of a child": cute, clean, sexless. However, Kelley's plush toys, purchased secondhand from thrift stores and yard sales, were discarded and soiled from use. Seemingly beyond redemption, they are darkly humorous monuments to lost innocence and repressed trauma. Deodorized Central Mass with Satellites was among Kelley's last works to feature stuffed animals. The toys are clustered in a cellular arrangement of one "central mass" and thirteen "satellites." To avoid eliciting an emotional or sentimental response from viewers, Kelley sewed the animals face-in. They are surrounded by ten brightly colored, abstract sculptures the artist called "deodorizers," which release a pine-scented mist into the air. By contrasting the degraded consequences of consumer excess with the slick, reductive forms of modernism, Kelley taunts the hierarchies between high art and mainstream culture, between obsessive hygiene and moral decline."

Montien Boonma's House of Hope (1996-1997, sculptural installation - herbs, spices, natural binders, cotton string, painted wood, and steel)

Description: "In House of Hope (1996-1997) Montien Boonma invites us into an immersive space filled with thousands of prayer-bead strands hanging above a pyramid of painted wooden steps. The surrounding wall painting suggests clouds or incense smoke from Buddhist temples. The artist crafted his pigments and beads from traditional Thai medicinal herbs and spices; the aromatic materials suffuse the gallery with scent. Boonma sought to create an atmosphere of bodily sensation: "When you enter a temple, it makes you warm… there's the feeling that we will be given help-like having a father and mother to protect us. Boonma created this installation after his wife died from cancer in 1995. Her diagnosis the year before led the artist to immerse himself in Buddhist rituals of devotion and healing. "I was asking for a lot," he said. "I was asking for the world to stop." Boonma's "house" explored the possibility of hope in a time of environmental disaster, industrialization, and the rise of global epidemics--crises that persist in the present, and which the work allows us to confront in new ways today."

Hague Yang's Sallim (2009, sculptural installation - steel frame, perforated metal plate, caster, aluminium venetian blinds, knitting yarn, acrylic mirror, IV stand, light bulbs, cable, electric fan, timer, garlic, dishes, hot pad, and scent emitter)

Description: ""There is a mysteriousness and spirituality in the most banal things. So my interest might be to reveal or make a crack in that mundaneness and show a glimpse of the miraculous, artist Hague Yang has said. This gallery brings together artworks by Yang and others that reimagine everyday environments through introspective reflection and material restraint. These works evoke spectral architectures, or spaces where what is absent may be as resonant as the visible or tangible. Created primarily during the 1990s and early 2000s - a period marked by new forms of global interconnectivity that blurred distinctions between public and private spheres - these works focus on the intricacies of daily life as a means to reflect, capture, or magnify experiences of time, space, and the self.

This sculpture, whose Korean title roughly translates to "homemaking," is a life-size model of the kitchen in the artist's former Berlin apartment, where she lived as well as worked. Describing Sallim as a "skeleton" of the original space, Yang has included sculptural elements that suggest utilitarian fixtures, such as a radiator and water boiler. "Some of them are very representative of a kitchen," she explains. "But some of them are blunt and rather puzzling." The artist has recreated not only this domestic environment, but its invisible sensorial experiences: scent emitters release smells of food and digestion, like coffee, bread, and excrement, while a fan circulates air.""

Otobong Nkanga's Tied to the Other Side (2021, woven tapestry)

Description: "Nkanga often portrays the natural world as a site of valuable knowledge for humans. Her tapestry Tied to the Other Side, set in an ambiguous landscape, employs abstracted shapes and textures to unfurl a universal narrative: the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. On one end is an arrangement of fragmented limbs sprouting from dense vegetation. Over time, shown in the image's progression from right to left, these body parts fall into states of decay and slowly become the spiritual energy source for radiating lights at the other end of the tapestry. This light, the artist seems to illustrate, will one day nourish the earth and spawn new life. She explains: "Even in death there is the possibility of regeneration. Nothing is lost; everything is used again.""

Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans (1962, acrylic paint and metallic enamel paint on canvas)

Description: "When asked why he chose to paint Campbell's soup cans, Warhol offered a deadpan reply: "I used to have the same lunch every day, for twenty years, I guess, the same thing over and over again." That daily meal, universally available throughout the United States, is the subject of this work. Warhol made the 32 canvases - one for each of the flavors of soup then sold by Campbell's - using a combination of projection, tracing, painting, and stamping. Repeating a nearly identical image, the work at once stresses the uniformity and ubiquity of the product's packaging and subverts the common characterization of painting as a medium of invention and originality."

Rosa Barba's 'states of matter' works

Row 1: Uncertain Theme - and Therefore Abstract (2021, steel, glass, motor, and 35mm film), At home with the Locust People (1974, acrylic paint on canvas)

Rows 2 and 3: Aggregate States of Matters (2019, projected short film (21 mins 14 secs))

Description: "With her film installation located further in this gallery, Rosa Barba poses a question: how can a form of visual expression convey the environmental and social impact of an issue as fraught as climate change? For this work, the artist interviewed members of Indigenous Quechua communities in Peru, who have had to adapt their daily practices due to the melting of a nearby glacier. Abandoning journalistic conventions like voice-over narration, she interweaves text and images of the country's wide-ranging terrain. In doing so, she questions the traditional binary of nature and culture, engaging with philosophical, spiritual, and cultural approaches to the changing environment and to time itself. Through custom technology, Barba also explores how film archives and transmits knowledge and information; her use of celluloid - an increasingly obsolete material that degrades with each revolution through a projector - resonates with the fragility of cultural memory and the natural landscape."

Gabrielle Scharnitzky nella nuova serie TV di Roland Emmerich: "Una storia di libertà e destino"

Gabrielle Scharnitzky nella nuova serie TV di Roland Emmerich: "Una storia di libertà e destino". L’attrice Gabrielle Scharnitzky è nella nuova serie tv Those about to Die, diretta da Roland Emmerich. La serie esplora un lato dell’antica Roma mai raccontato prima: il business dell'intrattenimento delle masse, che offre agli spettatori ciò che desiderano di più, il sangue e lo sport. Parlando del suo personaggio, Gabrielle dice: “Sono catturata dai pirati e venduta come schiava alla famiglia di una ricca coppia di patrizi, il console Marsus (Rupert Penry-Jones) e sua moglie Antonia (Gabriella Pession), entrambi spregiudicati e crudeli nella loro sete di potere. Drusilla ha curato e cresciuto la loro figlia Cornelia (Alice Lamanna). È solo il profondo amore di Drusilla per questa ragazza che le permette di superare le infinite difficoltà sotto il dominio abusivo di Antonia e Marsus. Dopo aver perso la speranza di essere liberata dalla schiavitù, Drusilla porta avanti il suo destino con grande dignità” Gabrielle ha recentemente partecipato all'evento Meet & Greet del Festival di Berlino, organizzato da Crawford Talents, Red Carpet Actors, Black Universe, The Actors Home di Luci Lenox, che mira a creare una rete tra attori, registi e produttori. “Il networking è uno dei compiti più importanti per ogni attore, non importa se alle prime armi o se già lavora con successo nel mondo del lavoro - dice Gabrielle - Dobbiamo entrare in contatto con registi, direttori, direttori di casting, colleghi attori. Dobbiamo conoscerci personalmente, condividere, scambiare, conversare, ottenere informazioni su nuovi progetti, ma soprattutto avere la possibilità di presentarsi di persona e mostrare chi siamo al di là di curriculum, foto e show reel. Soprattutto i giovani attori devono avere la possibilità di farlo, perché non possono ancora offrire un'opera compiuta. Quindi è il loro impegno, la loro passione, il loro fuoco che deve essere visto e i festival cinematografici sono una piattaforma perfetta per presentarsi, lasciare una buona e duratura impressione e possibilmente creare una bella collaborazione in futuro”. Per quanto riguarda i progetti futuri, dice: “Ci sono diversi progetti in vista. Tuttavia, non sono ancora in grado di parlarne. Ma vi assicuro che dal punto di vista lavorativo sarà un 2024 entusiasmante”. Gabrielle Scharnitzky, di nazionalità tedesca, ha lavorato alle serie tv Devils, Shantaram, Treadstone. Al cinema ha lavorato in Ragazze interrotte e Anime veloci.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

Summer Trip 2023 Day 27

12 July 2023

I don't have any interesting photos from the day's drive, just the map and final stats for the trip. I'd planned to stay entirely off interstates for the day, but did hop onto I-90 from just west of Albany until the last exit in NY State before hitting the Mass Pike.

I wish I'd been able to get photos of the two beautiful Red Tail Hawks that paralleled my route, one shortly after I left Ithaca in the morning and the other after I left I-90, heading for Antimony Brewing in Lenox MA on back roads.

The day's drive was 273 miles, and the total for the trip was 7,770 miles driven in 141 hours and 22 minutes with the car turning in 50 mpg overall. It was also pleasing to see that my average price per gallon for gas was just $3.85; last year's average was closer to $6.

Thought I would share some photos from my collection. My partner and I went to Tanglewood Lenox, MA. in 2021 for the Boston Pops 4th of July concert. That year the concert was not held on the Esplanade because of covid. They did have the fireworks in Boston but no concert. The Pops preformed their traditional medley of patriotic favorites, with guest appearances by five time Grammy Award Winner Jon Batiste, and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame R&B singer Mavis Staples. The weather was perfect and a beautiful location nestled nicely between Lenox and Stockbridge Mass. to celebrate the 4th
