SUMMARY:Closed: Gina Torello: LightScapes
DESCRIPTION:Light is a living element\, fixed in a moment of time\, captured by the lens of a machine or by the hand of man. This light shifts\, changes and instantaneously alters landscapes. It illuminates color and contrast\, in the key absence of artificial light. Lightscapes is the light in all our scapes\, originating from the sun or moon\, our natural resource. Lightscapes is the wonder of how light wraps itself around nature in a moment of stillness. \nAs you explore Lightscapes\, you will be surrounded by examples of how this light pulls you to various environments – evoking emotions\, some subtle and some turbulent. The exhibition does not seek to duplicate nature\, but instead allows the expressive and intimate use of color and light to dance within the work. \nLeveraging her strong classical European education\, Gina Torello’s work is diverse in both media and style. Her sense of expression demonstrates a mastery of color and is captured in her freedom to recreate Lightscapes that speak to the viewer from her soul. \nCome explore Lightscapes for yourself. In her retrospective exhibit\, Gina Torello demonstrates how light intertwines the subject matter of her oils\, pastels\, printmaking\, photography and sculpture in the Ice House Gallery. Gina Torello is a Professor in Monmouth University’s Department of Art and Design. \nArtist’s website:  www.ginatorello.studio

SUMMARY:New Stories for the Anthropocene: Artist Talk with Elizabeth Demaray
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Demaray is an artist who focuses on the interface between the built and the natural environment. In this vein\, she builds listening stations for birds that play human music\, cultures lichen on the sides of skyscrapers in New York City\, and designs alternative forms of housing for land hermit crabs. These artworks often involve the concept of a biotope\, which is a small environment where human and non-human populations overlap. \nWhile in residence at Monmouth University\, Demaray will present these projects and will lead a workshop on non-anthropocentric design. She will also be pairing with the campus to create a community-based project that embraces the idea of “trans-species giving.” According to Demaray\, the concept of trans-species giving asserts that the commonalities between life forms are such that we may actually be able to give other organisms a “hand up\,” notwithstanding our own cultural or species-specific assumptions about the natural world. \nDemaray is the recipient of the National Studio Award from the New York Museum of Modern Art/P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center and the New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in Sculpture\, and was the featured artist at the 2014 Association of Environmental Science Studies symposium\, Welcome to the Anthropocene. She lives and works in Brooklyn\, New York\, and is an associate professor of fine arts and head of the sculpture concentration at Rutgers University\, Camden. On the Rutgers\, New Brunswick\, campus\, she is a work group advisor in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering and an advisor at The Art and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Rutgers University\, in the Department of Computer Science\, which is dedicated to supporting artistic practice in the fields of computer vision and machine learning. \nDemaray’s work can be seen at: https://elizabethdemaray.org

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Gemini
DESCRIPTION:The play is set in the backyard of two adjoining houses in the working class neighborhood of South Philadelphia. They are about to celebrate the 21st birthday of Francis Geminiani\, a Harvard student\, when two classmate friends from Harvard and Yale\, Judith and Randy\, show up unexpectedly. Since there isn’t a spare bedroom in either house they pitch a tent in the backyard. Francis’ classmates\, the wealthy Judith seeks romance with Francis not realizing that her brother Randy is the object of Francis’ unexpressed affection. Each of the characters in the play are dysfunctional to some degree and their celebration of Francis’ birthday brings out the best of comedy and drama. The birthday party is a series of comic incidents that provide laughter and serious realizations that lead up to the final joyous ending. The crazy fast moving celebration leaves each character a bit wiser and happier having celebrated Francis’ 21st birthday.

SUMMARY:The Smithereens with Guest Vocalist Marshall Crenshaw
DESCRIPTION:“The Smithereens roared into the breach. They are one of those rare bands who produce great-sounding recordings… and sound even greater live.” -Kevin Coughlon \nSpecial guest vocalist Marshall Crenshaw will be joining Jim Babjak\, Dennis Diken and Mike Mesaros of The Smithereens. \nKnown for their catchy 1960s-influenced power pop that inspired countless alternative rockers\, The Smithereens gained popularity with “11” the album that spawned college campus favorites “A Girl Like You”\, “Blood and Roses” & “Blue Period”. In April of 2011 Smithereens released “2011” their first album of new material in 12 years. Produced by Don Dixon (who helmed “Especially For You”\, the group’s breakout debut)\, the seminal New Jersey rockers picked up right where they left off: with irresistibly catchy hooks and rapturously fuzzed-out guitars. Now they’re back on the road with their catalog of classic hits as well as new favorites. Following the sad passing of lead vocalist Pat DiNizio in 2017\, original members Jim Babjak (guitar & vocals)\, Dennis Diken (drums & percussion) and Mike Mesaros on bass guitar carry on the Smithereens legacy. \nOver the course of a recording career that’s spanned three decades\, 13 albums and hundreds of songs\, Marshall Crenshaw’s musical output has maintained a consistently high level of artistry\, craftsmanship and passion\, endearing him to a broad and loyal fan base. After getting an early break playing John Lennon in a touring company of the Broadway musical Beatlemania\, Crenshaw began his recording career with the now-legendary indie single “Something’s Gonna Happen.” The Eighties saw Marshall hit the charts again with “Someday\, Someway\,” “Cynical Girl\,” “Whenever You’re On My Mind\,” “Maryanne\,” “You’re My Favorite Waste of Time” and more compositions covered by artists including Ronnie Spector\, Gin Blossoms and Bette Midler. Crenshaw is recognized as one of the era’s preeminent rock ’ n’ rollers\, confirmed by such subsequent albums as Field Day\, Downtown\, Mary Jean & 9 Others\, Good Evening\, Life’s Too Short\, Miracle of Science\, #447\, What’s in the Bag? and Jaggedland.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Colin Hay – Waiting For My Real Life
DESCRIPTION:What happens after you reach the top? From international number one singles to obscurity and addiction to the simple song of salvation\, follow the inner journey of a singer–songwriter reborn by singing his truth. Colin Hay – Waiting For My Real Life is the inspiring story of Colin Hay\, an acclaimed solo artist and former Men At Work frontman\, and his personal and artistic journey from dizzying heights to staggering lows to finding salvation through song. We follow the surprisingly swift rise to superstardom of his band Men At Work\, to that band’s equally surprising demise\, to his long\, slow climb back to relevance and resonance. Ultimately\, commitment to his craft and the development of a truly one-of-a-kind stage show set Colin on the path that leads to a deeply satisfying solo career – one that is still ascending. With sold-out shows\, critically acclaimed albums and a word-of-mouth reputation for providing one of the finest nights out a music fan could ask for\, Colin finds himself at the top of his abilities and is just getting started. \nColin Hay- Waiting For My Real Life weaves its story around intimate footage from Colin’s successful 2013 world tour. It features interviews with close family and friends as well as celebrity admirers Hugh Jackman\, Mick Fleetwood\, Zach Braff\, Sia Furler and many others reflecting on the impact of this powerhouse singer on their lives and work – giving a glimpse into the heart of one of the most successful songwriters of the 20th century.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED - Songwriters By The Sea
DESCRIPTION:Distinguished NJ Songwriters Joe Rapolla and Joe D’Urso are back this year hosting the celebrated Songwriters by the Sea series at the Lauren K. Woods Theatre. What once started in a small coffee shop as an area for local songwriters has now grown into a series that features some of the top songwriters in the country. This year\, the show features special guest artists Tom Chapin and Jen Chapin with an intro set by George Wurzbach. The show will also feature Monmouth University student openers. \nIn a career that spans six decades\, 26 albums and three GRAMMY awards\, Hudson Valley Troubadour Tom Chapin has covered an incredible amount of creative ground. In addition to his work as a recording artist and concert performer\, Chapin has acted on Broadway\, as well as working extensively in television\, radio and film. As a music-maker\, the multi-talented singer/songwriter/guitarist has maintained two long and productive parallel careers\, both as a highly respected contemporary folk artist and as a pioneer in the field of children’s music. Chapin has established a reputation for insightful\, heartfelt songcraft and effortlessly charismatic live performances. Chapin’s infectious songs\, sterling musicianship and personal warmth consistently shine through\, whether he’s performing on record or in a concert hall\, an outdoor festival\, a school\, in front of a symphony orchestra or in an intimate coffeehouse. The New York Times called Chapin “one of the great personalities in contemporary folk music.” \nJen Chapin has been celebrated for writing “brilliant soulfully poetic urban folk music” (NPR) for almost two decades\, beginning with her debut\, Open Wide\, in 2002. Nurtured in and around NYC by a large family of artists\, writers\, and musicians\, Jen’s “observant\, lyrically deft\, politically aware and emotionally intuitive” (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel) songwriting features both her “extraordinary voice” (De krenten uit de pop\, The Netherlands) and “astonishing jazz band” (popmatters). As much as an artistic legacy\, the roots of Jen’s upbringing have inspired her “potent\, jazzy\, layered folk” (Newsday) songs and a lifetime of passionate activism\, through ongoing work with WhyHunger (founded by her late father Harry Chapin)\, and teaching high school global history in Brooklyn. She has performed on stage with Bruce Springsteen\, on bills with Aimee Mann\, Bruce Hornsby\, and The Neville Brothers\, and her rendition of Van Morrison’s “Into The Mystic” was featured in an episode of the SyFy TV series “Defiance”. Jen Chapin’s 2013 release Reckoning\, produced and engineered by five-time GRAMMY© Winner Kevin Killen (U2\, Elvis Costello\, Kate Bush) was named among the best Americana albums of that year by Examiner.com and awarded First Prize\, Lyrics category by the USA Songwriting Competition (for the song “Go Away”). Her new trio album “Desert or Sea” was released in summer 2019. \nSponsored by the Leon Hess Business School\nAll proceeds benefit the Music Industry Endowed Scholarship
