AMANDA PALMER

Amanda Palmer is the lead singer, pianist, and lyricist/composer of the “Brechtian punk cabaret” duo The Dresden Dolls. Palmer’s solo album, Who Killed Amanda Palmer was produced by Ben Folds. “The record was supposed to be simple. It ended up not being simple at all. This is like my life. I first got the idea to put together a really simple, stripped-down, record-in-in-my-underwear-in-my-apartment-in-boston kinda thing.”  www.amandapalmer.net

YVONNE PEREA

 Yvonne has been playing guitar and writing songs since the tender age of 8 — true, she makes it look easy but many years have gone into perfecting her craft! Over the past 10 years, she has released four albums of original material: her first album, Knowing This Path (1996) seemed to predict where she would be going in her life, both as a woman and as a musician; it plots a very personal journey. Tomorrow’s Day (1999) began as a demo project of a few songs, but demand for another CD of her original music persuaded Yvonne to release it as an acoustic album. So, it became her “unplugged” project — just guitars and her searing voice. Her next album, My Peace (2002), truly captures for the first time Yvonne’s multi-dimensional talent and sound that defy a compartmentalized genre. It is a project representative of her maturity as an artist and as a person– combining upbeat, bluesy tracks with warm, full ballads and something in between. Her current album, “Mudpies”, has finally been released. A “mudpie” is a collection of mud, water, bugs, grass, rocks and anything else you can imagine as a child. This album, “Mudpies”, is a colorful collection of fun times, sad times, love and life. Produced, once again, by Matt Bissonette, “Mudpies” has landed. After hearing Yvonne’s music or watching her perform, most come away with the feeling that they have really seen a glimpse of Yvonne’s soul. In her own genuine and real way, she writes her heart into her songs.  www.yvonneperea.com

Shocked writes, “I was moved by the power of rock ‘n’ roll. And if you follow the trail from rock ‘n’ roll, it always leads you back to the blues, sweet soul music and finally to the churches and gospel music.” In Shocked’s case, it led to “living by the Good Book, and putting out a gospel record.” Her new CD “ToHeavenYouRide” spotlights Shocked where she shines brightest-live onstage, delivering for an audience. The album captures her at her most soulful-in the original spiritual sense.  www.michelleshocked.com

Jack Becker, co-founder and executive director of Forecast Public Art, publishers of Public Art Review, will join Anne “Ahni” Rocheleau, founder and director of Spaces for Peace, and Erica Behrens, director of the New York office of Franz Mayer of Munich, on Thursday, April 9 at 6:00 pm for a panel discussion about rethinking the role of public art in connecting art, community and peace in a complex society.

rethink-header.jpgTheir panel presentation will examine how to connect art, community and peace in our complex society. Jack Becker will discuss public art and community building, with an emphasis on art that bridges cultures, brings people together and addresses conflict. Ahni Rocheleau will share a visual presentation on how her organization provides groundwork knowledge to create cultures of peace through public art sites. Erica Behrens will discuss Franz Mayer’s fabrication techniques and how the firm works with artists’ designs and clients globally. The presenters will then field audience questions.

rethink-public-art_0.jpg Jack Becker has actively pursued his passion for art in public spaces since 1976. A graduate of the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, he specializes in projects that connect the ideas and energies of artists with the needs and opportunities of communities. He is the editor of Public Art Review, the world’s leading journal devoted exclusively to the field of contemporary public art.

Anne “Ahni” Rocheleau founded Spaces for Peace in 2004. The former director and curator of The Rhode Island Foundation Gallery, Ahni has worked as an arts educator and administrator in nonprofit, government, museum and academic worlds. Spaces for Peace collaborates with communities to build open-air public art sites that educate the public to a nonviolent way of life. These sites represent a singular fusion of contemporary visual and sound art with written word, integrated into landscaped architectural spaces in plazas, parks and on campuses.

For more than 16 years, Erica Behrens has worked with artists on public art projects at various stages. Behrens managed highly successful public art projects with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s Art for Transit Program in New York City for 11 years. In her current position with Franz Mayer, Behrens works with artist’s designs and clients globally.

Locals Care: $116,000 to nonprofits $5million plus to businesses

Published by makinart under Uncategorized Edit This

The City of Santa Fe Economic Development Department has launched the ‘Buy Into It’ Campaign. They are asking for consumers to spend their money in Santa Fe, versus online or in other cities.
We support this idea of keeping dollars local.

The City of Santa Fe would like to publicly recognize some of those people who have made the choice to ‘Buy into Santa Fe’. The City of Santa Fe is asking residents to voluntarily submit the amount they are spending locally, and may recognize them in local advertising. If you would like Locals Care to submit your name and total volume of local spending on your behalf, please reply to this email and let us know you would like to participate. We will do the rest.

When You Shop Local at least Once a Week, something Special Happens…

When you shop at a participating Locals Care merchant, you of course know that part of your transaction is donated by the merchant to the nonprofit you have selected. But did you also know, that every time you visit a merchant in the Locals Care network, you are increasing tax receipts? You are making sure your dollars recirculate longer within our economy, generating more money for parks, police and fire support, and the Santa Fe River. In fact, a recent study by Dr. David Blond, Principal at Query International and former Chief Economist at the Pentagon during the Carter and Reagan administrations, demonstrated that Locals Care has generated an estimated additional $500,000 in tax revenue for the City of Santa Fe! WOW! What a difference shopping local can make!

Support locally owned businesses, and Support your nonprofit!
This is your program. You have chosen the nonprofit to support. You have chosen where to spend your money.

From all of us at Locals Care, Thank you… for doing something special.

William, Carrie, Colt & Andy

Well, I wanted to be at the top.  These are great programs. Perhaps you’s like to start one in your neighborohhod too or city, etc. Mary

Last Weekend of Global DanceFest
The 9th annual Global DanceFest ventures to Latitudes North/Scandinavia to offer New Mexicans a window on contemporary dance and culture at the top of the world. Much of the work is multi-media, infused with theatrical devices and technology. The art is cerebral but imbued with humor. The artists represent the global shifts and schisms common to every region - a Norwegian-Iranian, Israelis at home in Denmark, Indigenous Greenlanders sharing a contemporary tale. This weekend features: POLAROID (what’s really going on around the North Pole). Jo Strømgren Kompani is an internationally acclaimed dance company based in Bergen, Norway. In Polaroid (what’s really going on around the North Pole) the company uses authentic Greenlandic language, a marginal language only spoken by Inuits and rarely heard on the international theatre scene. · Co- produced by NAPA/ Nordic Institute of Greenland, Polaroid makes a tongue-in-cheek dance statement about Greenlandic culture and contemporary environmental issues.

George Lewis Trio with Nicole Mitchell & Hamid Drake
The Outpost presents the UNM Composers’ Symposium opening night concert by this year’s featured composer- MacArthur Fellow and Columbia University Professor of Music- George Lewis, and his trio featuring Nicole Mitchell and Hamid Drake. Long prominent in the experimental music tradition, trombonist George Lewis studied composition with Muhal Richard Abrams at the famed Chicago musician’s cooperative, the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) School of Music, and studied trombone with Dean Hey. A member of the AACM since 1971, his work as composer, improvisor, performer and interpreter explores electronic music, computer-based multimedia installations, text-sound works, and notated and improvisational forms. With more than 120 recordings to his name, he has also published numerous articles which have appeared in scholarly journals. His book, A Power Stronger Than Itself: The AACM and American Experimental Music (University of Chicago Press) was published in 2008. Nicole Mitchell is the founder of the acclaimed Black Earth Ensemble and Black Earth Strings and Downbeat magazine’s “Rising Star” flutist 2005-2008. Her compositions integrate new ideas with jazz, gospel, pop, and African percussion to create a synthesis of “postmodern jazz.” Hamid Drake, widely regarded as one of the best percussionists in improvised music, is known for adapting to North and West African and Indian styles as well as reggae and Latin. He has collaborated with top free jazz improvisers including William Parker, Peter Brötzmann, Marilyn Crispell, Herbie Hancock, Misha Mengelberg and Pharoah Sanders. The Symposium features free events and concerts through Wednesday, April 1, including panels, Meet the Artist sessions and more. Outpost’s Tom Guralnick will join George Lewis and Nicole Mitchell (current co-president of the AACM) in a panel discussion about the AACM on Monday, March 30 at 9 a.m. followed by a talk with Nicole Mitchell.
