LEAH BRETT / ART DELO/ ERIN FLANAGAN LIND

THE STORY: Set in a shabby cottage on the coast of Maine, Blood & Oil is the wicked tale of a family's unraveling secrets and the choices that haunt them. Fraternal twins, Allison and Madeline Wickham, reconnect on their birthday -- and the anniversary of their mother's death -- by visiting a local psychic together. Once they arrive at Miss Daja's Sitting Room, however, a young runaway becomes a conduit to a bitter family history the sisters' father kept hidden from them and Miss Daja's own grim secret is unearthed in the process.

Then you, my dear friend, are a damn fool
_gaia gallery presents
"Then you, my dear friend, are a damn fool"
and other illuminated manuscripts by Melissa MacAlpin
April 06 - 27
Artist reception: Saturday, April 14th 6-9pm
_gaia gallery
315 3rd Street
Jersey City, NJ 07302
Throughout history, illuminated manuscripts were a way of reassessing important stories, commemorating words in vibrant colors and gilded gold pages. The end results were unique and beautiful, and made the people reading these stories feel more connected to them. In contemporary popular culture, our stories are culled from movies, television, and the Internet. We supplement our selves by quoting and taking comfort from this new scripture.
By representing ourselves with words from specific eras, we are also commemorating the time and places that we are from. My work collects some of my own most interesting and important words picked up in mass media through my lifetime. In these pieces, words spoken by people such as Rowdy Roddy Piper, Donna Reed, Owen Wilson, Nora Ephron, and Charles Nelson Reilly are commemorated in sparkling glitter and LED lights.

Chillfest Bill Cunningham photographer
Chillfest, the mostly gay and lesbian film series of Jersey City,
presents the documentary film, "Bill Cunningham New York."
WHAT: "Bill Cunningham New York" at Chillfest in Downtown Jersey City
WHEN: Sunday, April 15, at 4:15pm. Doors open at 4:00pm for drinks, food, and socializing.
WHERE: LITM, 140 Newark Avenue (1/2 block from the Grove Street PATH station)
TICKETS: $10 door, $7 advance at www.chillfest.org
About "Bill Cunningham New York" --
The “Bill” in question is octogenarian New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham. For decades, while dodging Manhattan traffic on his bike, this cultural anthropologist has been obsessively and inventively chronicling fashion trends and high society charity soirées for the Times Style section in his columns “On the Street” and “Evening Hours.”
Documenting uptown fixtures (Anna Wintour, Tom Wolfe, Brooke Astor, David Rockefeller—who all appear in the film out of their love for Bill), downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham’s enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace.
From the review in "The New York Times" --
"...in “Bill Cunningham New York,” Richard Press’s captivating and moving portrait of a singular man and a passing era, it’s possible to view what Mr. Cunningham does as the flip side of war photography, and not entirely unrelated. He seeks out and captures humanity amid the maelstrom of life, looking for what Harold Koda, chief curator at the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, describes in the film as “ordinary people going about their lives, dressed in fascinating ways.” In these fleeting and otherwise unseen or unremarked moments, Mr. Cunningham finds something creative, life-affirming and free, and preserves it forever."
CHILLFEST, the mostly gay and lesbian film series of Jersey City presents gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender-themed films to Hudson County, New Jersey and the region. CHILLFEST is a sponsored project of New York Foundation for the Arts, a 501(c)(3) organization.

It is a great way to network, meet new people, have fun and provide support for a local art project. Art Eat-Up provides individual grants for artists, connects artists to each other and to the greater community and promotes the artistic livelihood of our community. Artists Click Here for Art Eat-Up is a grants process that gives an artist an unrestricted financial resource to realize a visual arts proposal, whether it is for one piece or an entire body of work. The grant may provide materials, equipment or even living expenses while the artist completes the project.
Art Eat-Up is grassroots funding at its best: donations for the community dinner go directly to funding art-makers whose proposals draw the most votes from the diners.
The process is purposely simple: Anyone can submit a proposal to Arts Eat-Up. Community participation in the grant selection process is the key: through this process we hope to stimulate and support experimental, critical and imaginative projects that may not be eligible for formal funding.
Art Eat-Up connects artists with artists, artists with the community, and the community with each other during Art Eat-Up dinners. It provides artists the opportunity to begin marketing their work before it is made. It creates momentum and awareness for art projects promoted during the event and possibly realized with the help of the Art-Eat-Up grant.
How it Works
Art Eat-Up event. Entrance will provide each person with one ballot and dinner with musical entertainment and beverages. Diners view a variety of proposed artworks and art projects. Each diner can cast one vote on the project they would like to see awarded a grant. After dinner, ballots will be counted and the art proposal receiving the most votes will be awarded the money raised through entrance donations (minus expenses and a portion to second and third prize).
The grant money is awarded to the winning artist or organization without limitations on how they use the grant money. Artists can take home the money that same evening. Documentation of the finalized project will be on display at the next Art Eat-Up, as well as other venues, including the web, informing the community of the progress and completion of each winning project.
Watch this space for the next scheduled Art Eat-Up.
We want to thank our sponsors: Art House Productions, Made with Love, and Palace Drugs who have made this Eat-Up possible.
