DO NOT MISTAKE OUR SOFTNESS FOR WEAKNESS
On View: September 7 – October 19, 2018
Opening Reception: First Friday, September 7, 2018, 7 – 10pm
Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Friday 9am – 5pm
Eleven Twenty Projects: 1120 Main Street, Buffalo, NY 14209

Buffalo, NY – Eleven Twenty Projects is delighted to announce Shasti O’Leary Soudant’s upcoming exhibition, Do Not Mistake Our Softness for Weakness. O’Leary-Soudant’s newest sculptures focus on simultaneity and navigate the multifaceted and complex qualities ascribed to the feminine and the masculine. Formal rigor, Neomodernist simplicity and complex cultural concerns amalgamate in two inviting bodies of sculptural work: Priapic Yin and Burst Star.

The Priapic Yin march through the gallery en masse, physically and tangibly illustrating faulty gender-based distinctions. We understand this both from an intellectual and primal perspective – each undulating form connects with its counterparts, flowing brightly through space and making plain the intricacies and issues of attributes like softness or hardness belonging to one gender or the other. The sculptures are colorful, large, playful, sensual, serious, and socially germane. They beg to be touched and the visitors are welcome to do just that.

Continuing this conversation, the large and small Burst Star works appear soft and appealing from afar, but surprise the viewer up close with their sharp points. Dual visions, multipurpose perspectives, and a reminder that appearances are deceiving when paired with assumption, the artist relates them to the construction, maintenance and violation of contemporary social contracts: “You want to touch them but you know you shouldn’t.”

Please join us for the opening reception on First Friday, September 7, 2018 from 6 – 9pm.

Jewish Repertory Theatre opens its season with the world premiere of The Strudel Lady, playwright Shirl Solomon’s story about Chava, an American-born, Jewish Orthodox wife and mother, who seeks to put her life back together when she is deserted by her husband and children and eventually finds new love and reclaims her independence and self-esteem through her skill as a baker.

To sweeten the season, JRT is offering two strudel baking workshops with Barbara Keating of Sweet Temptations du Jour. Using Eastern European recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation, Barbara will teach participants how to make strudel from scratch.

Two workshops are being offered, September 20 and 27, 6-9:30 at the Polish Cadets Hall, 927 Grant St, Buffalo, NY 14207.

Cost per person is $45 and includes a strudel making demo, along with a presentation of the cultural history and traditions surrounding strudel. Each participant will make his/her own strudel to take home, along with a traditional babushka and recipes. People may bring their own wine and will enjoy a homemade meal of pizza, salad and antipasti salad, accompanied by live music while strudels are baking.

Space is limited to 10 per workshop – so book early! To reserve your space, call Jordana Halpern, Managing Director of the Jewish Repertory Theater, at 716-204-2255 or contact jhalpern@jccbuffalo.org

Big Opportunities for Small Business 2018

Doing Business with the Government, the Primes, and the Anchor Institutions

Entrepreneurs looking to expand their business through procurement with larger businesses and institutions should

plan to attend a half day conference at SUNY Buffalo State.

Smaller enterprises often do not know where to begin in doing business with Western New York’s anchor institutions/businesses.

Anchors are organizations with huge purchasing power. In many towns they are referred to as Meds/Eds & Big Biz. We have many such anchors in our region.

It is our goal to introduce small businesses to who they are and the steps that should be taken to launch a business relationship.

First step – who are the anchors. Next – how do the anchors expect the entrepreneur to communicate and ultimately offer their services/products to the anchor.

The conference will be held on Friday September 28th from 8am-noon at the Burchfield Penney Art Center on the Buffalo State Campus.

Participants will meet the anchors, hear from local leadership, and gain knowledge on how to do business with an anchor.

To register, call Buffalo State Small Business Development Center, 716.878.4030

Come visit one of Buffalo’s must-see treasures: The Guaranty Building! Originally built in 1896, this Adler & Sullivan designed structure is a highlight of Buffalo’s downtown architecture. Come see the beautiful terra cotta tiles on the exterior, the incredible mosaic work on the interior, and learn the history of this building, including what makes it a great preservation story. Preservation Buffalo Niagara is the exclusive provider of tours of the Guaranty Building.

Pre-registration is required for this tour. Walks on are not permitted, due to the limited capacity on this tour. Online registrants will receive a confirmation email. If you prefer to register over the phone, please call (716) 852-3300. If you have any questions, please contact Olivia at (716) 852-3300.

Tours of the Guaranty Building are on Fridays at 2 pm and Saturdays at 11 am.

Join us on M&T Fourth Friday September 28, 2018 for the opening of “Gold Rush” by Jozef Bajus; the opening reception will run from 5-8pm, with artists speaking about their work promptly at 6pm.

In “Gold Rush” Jozef Bajus makes sculpture out of the debris of contemporary culture. His work imagines another future for that which is too often discarded. He rejects the notion that the act of “disposal” ends one’s societal obligation. By investigating the production processes of TriMain businesses as well as the refuse from such production, Bajus constructs original objects that bring new understanding to the possibilities that lie within what is too often discarded.

Join us on M&T Fourth Friday September 28, 2018 for the opening of “Re-Model” by Kurt Treeby; the opening reception will run from 5-8pm, with artists speaking about their work promptly at 6pm.

Kurt Treeby’s work comments on contemporary production and consumption. His fiber work focuses on iconic structures and imagery and the connection between so-called “high” and “low” art forms. His latest body of work meticulously re-creates some of the region’s once abandoned landmarks, including the Larkin Building and Tri-Main Center, in plastic canvas and yarn. Serving as both sculpture and tissue dispenser, these objects call attention to how easily communities can deem something “disposable.”

Jean Walton, Mary Cappello and James Morrison all attended UB as graduate students in the storied English Department during the 1980’s. All earned PhDs there and went on to successful writing and teaching careers. Buffalo Trace: a Threefold Vibration is their shared memoir of their time here, a crucial period for their own growing up as people and as scholars/academics at a telling time in Buffalo and UB history. A remarkable, powerful and moving triangulated coming of age story perhaps unique to Buffalo and a testament to the renowned and sometimes controversial UB English Department, Buffalo Trace is as smooth, with similar spicy complexity, as the Kentucky Bourbon with which it shares its name. This book is certain to become an essential addition to the Buffalo book collection.

Early reader, the author/critic Lucy Jane Bledsoe says: “Their stories embrace the contradictions and rigors and limitations of academia, and yet this trilogy of essays can also be read as an ode to Buffalo, the deeply American town that provided cover and even salvation for these three writers. Who can resist the assertion that “Buffalo was itself a kind of Paris of the rust belt”? Ultimately, this is a love story, among friends, lovers, literature, and even Buffalo.”

Theatre in the Mist, along with Cornerstone Community FCU presents Disney’s Mary Poppins on Friday, September 7 through Saturday, September 22, 2018 at The Performing Arts Center at Niagara Falls High School, 4455 Porter Road, Niagara Falls, NY.

Show times: Fridays 7:00 pm & Saturdays 2:00 pm & 7:00pm
Tickets: Adults $20 | Students/Seniors (62 ) $18 | Children (10 & Under) $12

Mary Poppins teaches the Banks family (and the audience!) to value the important things in life: family, friendship and imagination through an enchanting mixture of story, timeless songs, dance numbers and stagecraft. Elysa Gardner of USA Today called the show a “fountain of youth that will makes many a grown-up feel like a kid again.” This stage musical combines elements of Disney’s most beloved films with material inspired by P.L. Travers’ books.

Directed by David Rechionne and Musical Direction by Marnie Williams Aldrow, Disney’s Mary Poppins will be Practically Perfect in every way. For more information or to purchase tickets call toll free 1-877-856-0694 or visit www.theatreinthemist.org

Golden Boy by Clifford Odets
Sep. 14- Oct. 7, 2018
Directed by ICTC Producing Director Fortunato Pezzimenti
A Knock Out!
In this brilliant and timeless American classic, scrappy young Joe Bonaparte is torn between the desire for the modest and satisfying life of an artist and the pressure to pursue fame and fortune as a prizefighter. Joe’s loving Old World Italian father fears that the siren song of fast money, fast cars and faster women will destroy his son’s sensitive soul, leaving him nothing. Odets’ powerful language with its jazzy musicality and gritty vernacular heightens Joe’s gut-wrenching struggle to choose between the exquisite quivering notes of the violin and “the sweet science”; the brutal world of boxing.
Curtain Times:
Thursday-Saturday Evenings @ 7:30 PM

There is perhaps no better way to see Buffalo and grasp what it is about than a tour on the Open-Air Autobus of The Campaign for Greater Buffalo History, architecture & Culture. 2018 is its 12th season. It is the best way to get around and see, hear, and smell Buffalo (ahh, toasted oats, chicken wings, charcoal-grilled hot dogs!).
The Campaign’s Open-Air Autobus tours are fundraisers for the group’s wide-ranging preservation work, and are built on 30 years’ worth of architectural and historical research in the course of preservation activities. The tours reflect its character: Passionate, lively, and knowledgeable.
By doing a tour, you are doing good: The Campaign is a charitable organization chartered by the New York State Dept. of Education, and revenues are plowed directly back into local historic preservation. The Campaign’s tours are popular, informative, well-done. We are the go-to organization for the general public and experts alike.

The Campaign’s signature tour is The Buffalo Whirlwind Tour. Besides the fun of traveling in the open air, you’ll see scores of beautiful buildings and houses by prominent national and international architects and the streets and neighborhoods. The tour starts with the foundation of modern Buffalo, and modern urban America: The building and grounds of what was the Buffalo State Hospital, designed by H.H. Richardson and Frederick Law Olmsted, conceived in 1870. We end with the Heath House by Frank Lloyd Wright of 1904. In between, you’ll see world-altering industrial architecture, the preening mansions of Delaware Avenue, and the prototype for the skyscraper, Sullivan’s Guaranty Building.
It is all put in context for you, as the markers of Buffalo’s progress through the years are pointed out:
• Kleinhans Music Hall
• First Presbyterian Church
• Ellicott Square by Daniel
Burnham & Co.
• St. Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral by Richard Upjohn
• The Canal District
• Niagara & Lafayette squares
• Millionaires’ Row
• Allentown Historic District
• Delaware Historic District
• City Hall and Old County Hall
• Theater Historic District
• Bidwell, Chapin, Lincoln parkways
The Whirlwind tour is an astounding 90-minute tour of a great American city, given by passionate experts and participants in the great preservation issues of the day.

 CAITLIN CASS: MYTHS AND MAXIMS

Exhibition On View September 8 – 29, 2018

Opening Reception Saturday, September 8, 2018, 6 – 9pm

Exhibition Hours: Saturdays 12 – 3pm or by appointment

Argus Gallery: 1896 Niagara Street, Buffalo, NY 14207

Buffalo, NY – Argus Gallery is pleased to announce Myths and Maxims, an exhibition of recent works by local artist Caitlin Cass.
A combination of fables and truths, the illustrative works in this exhibition use humor as a vehicle for the exploration of our tumultuous social climate. A series of large works represent myths and smaller works depict individual maxims. The drawings are endearing, rendered in an accessible style akin to comics and political cartoons. They begin with a laugh and end with a poke in the pit of one’s stomach.

Underneath the initial playfulness lies unpleasant truth. Cass’s work considers the consequences of generations of shoddy ideas implemented across our Western timeline while maintaining some personal distance – the artist is not trying to tell us what to think, just giving us some things to think about. As Cass describes, “These are myths and maxims for uncertain times. They explore bad habits and inadequate solutions. Using words and pictures they offer up ideas without analysis. They will not change the world or indoctrinate but they will make you think something.”

Please join us for an opening reception Saturday, September 8, 2018 from 6 – 9pm.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Caitlin Cass makes comics, drawings and counterfeit historical exhibits that folklorize historic failures and foretell grim futures.  Often working under the moniker, The Great Moments in Western Civilization Cooperative, she questions the authority of traditional historical narratives by co-opting their power for her own devices.  

Caitlin’s recent counterfeit historical exhibits include How to Fly in America (part of Amid/In WNY at Hallwalls Contemporary Art Center) and The Museum of Failure (which has been exhibited in Buffalo, Rochester, and Washington D.C.). In addition to exhibits, Caitlin draws and publishes a bimonthly comic periodical under the moniker The Great Moments in Western Civilization Postal Constituent. Her comics have also appeared in The Public and The Chicago Reader and online at The Nib. She recently sold her first two gags to The New Yorker and was awarded a 2018 NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowship in Fiction. Caitlin lives and works in Buffalo and teaches Art at Buffalo Seminary.

Theatre in the Mist, along with Cornerstone Community FCU presents Disney’s Mary Poppins on Friday, September 7 through Saturday, September 22, 2018 at The Performing Arts Center at Niagara Falls High School, 4455 Porter Road, Niagara Falls, NY.

Show times: Fridays 7:00 pm & Saturdays 2:00 pm & 7:00pm

Mary Poppins teaches the Banks family (and the audience!) to value the important things in life: family, friendship and imagination through an enchanting mixture of story, timeless songs, dance numbers and stagecraft. Elysa Gardner of USA Today called the show a “fountain of youth that will makes many a grown-up feel like a kid again.” This stage musical combines elements of Disney’s most beloved films with material inspired by P.L. Travers’ books.

Directed by David Rechionne and Musical Direction by Marnie Williams Aldrow, Disney’s Mary Poppins will be Practically Perfect in every way. For more information or to purchase tickets call toll free 1-877-856-0694 or visit www.theatreinthemist.org
