France-Vaz draws inspiration from the Pre-Raphaelite and Naturalist periods of art\, poetry\, and classic literature\, and film. She combines her strong foundation in life painting with imaginative backgrounds fusing classical with contemporary realism. \nThe artist was born in Brooklyn\, NY and moved to the UWS in Manhattan in 2002 to study portrait and figurative art. She was the recipient of the Rhodes Scholarship Award and earned a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in 3D Computer Animation for Film and Special Effects. \nFrance-Vaz has exhibited at the Dacia Gallery NYC\, Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art\, Museum of Modern European Art for ModPortrait and first round of Figurativas\,  Abend Gallery\, Principle Gallery\, Lovetts Gallery\, Eisele Gallery\, Butler Insitute of Fine Art\, National Arts Club NYC\, and Salmagundi Club NYC.

Her intent is to combine hope\, spiritual beliefs\, and the human condition. Most of her models are professional musicians\, artists\, actors\, and dancers.  The spiritual\, the mystical\, and the mythical have underlying tones and meanings left for the beholder to ponder and engage psychologically. Having studied film and Stanislavski Method Acting allows for a spiritual connection to her subjects expressing emotion and mood. Her study of lighting and movement\, through acting\, dance\, and theater is the catalyst for creating a still image from a cinematic process.  France-Vaz’s patterns of life express a life experience or moment of thought in time. \nFrance-Vaz has been published in Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine\, ModPortrait 2020/2021\,  American Art Collector\, Southwest Art Magazine\, \, ARC Salon\, International Artists\, Realism Today\, and Leonardo Guide Artelibre 2021\, \nHer paintings and commissions hang in private collections.

SUMMARY:Why Americans Doubt Climate Science
DESCRIPTION:A presentation by Peter Jacques\, Ph.D. \nIn 2023\, fifteen percent of surveyed Americans did not think climate change was happening\, and 28 percent responded that warming was not caused by human activities. 22 percent were doubtful or dismissive of climate change. Why is this when over\, according to a 2021 survey of climate experts found that 98.7 percent of them said the climate is warming and humans are driving this global environmental change? Between confirmed climate experts who published 20 or more peer reviewed papers on climate change between 2015 and 2019\, there was 100 percent agreement that the Earth is warming mostly because of human activity.  \nAt least part of this disconnect is because there has been a US-centered counter-movement organized to cast doubt on climate change science and climate scientists. This effort is organized by policy elites in conservative think tanks who have guided some of our narratives and these narratives have turned an elite-led counter-movement to one that is populist. This discussion will attend to the social science surrounding this climate change counter-movement (CCCM).

SUMMARY:Mary Gauthier w/ special guest Jaimee Harris
DESCRIPTION:About Mary Gauthier\nAs she has so eloquently accomplished over the past 25 years\, acclaimed singer-songwriter Mary Gauthier has used her art once again to traverse the uncharted waters of the past few years. “I’m the kind of songwriter who writes what I see in the world right now\,” she affirms. Thankfully\, amid dark storms of pandemic loss\, she found and followed the beacon of new love: Her gift to us\, the powerful Dark Enough to See the Stars\, collects ten sparkling jewels of Gauthier songcraft reflecting both love and loss. \nHer eleventh album\, Dark Enough to See the Stars\, follows the profound antidote to trauma\, Rifles & Rosary Beads\, her 2018 collaborative work with wounded Iraq war veterans. It garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album\, as well as a nomination for Album of the Year by the Americana Music Association. Publication of her first book\, the illuminating Saved by a Song: The Art and Healing Power of Songwriting\, in 2021\, brought her more praise. Brandi Carlile has said\, “Mary’s songwriting speaks to the tender aspects of our humanness. We need her voice in times like these more than we ever have.” The Associated Press called Gauthier “one of the best songwriters of her generation.” \nGauthier’s early work\, which began at 35\, reflected her newfound sobriety\, delving into events from a troubled life\, which persisted after she became a renowned chef in Boston. Dark Enough to See the Stars returns Gauthier to the scintillating confessional mode on such albums as her breakthrough release\, 2005’s Mercy Now\, as well as such ear worms as the hook-laden “Drag Queens in Limousines.” In addition to crafting instantly memorable songs\, Gauthier has never shied away from difficult self-exploration\, as with 2010’s The Foundling\, on which she explored the repercussions of her adoption from a New Orleans orphanage and subsequent search for her birth mother. \n \nGauthier’s partner\, Jaimee Harris\, who sings harmony throughout the album\, co-wrote the paean to one of Gauthier’s favorite cities. “I have a long history with Amsterdam\,” Gauthier recounts. “My first record deal was on a Dutch label\, and I tour there regularly\, and much of Mercy Now was written at my favorite hotel there.” A canceled flight to Denmark landed Gauthier and Harris in Amsterdam for an unexpected three days during the pandemic. “To return to that hotel and be able to share that with the person I love and show her the city…\,” Gauthier pauses. “It’s complicated – because all around the edges was the pandemic. But you’ve got to express your joy – a joy that’s not free from pain. There’s grief all around us\, but there’s this ability to still love and still be aware that the sky is beautiful and the hand that I’m holding is filled with love…”
