Painting is alive in Brooklyn, as this cornucopia of
eye-opening canvasses shows. This exhibit features eight painters
who live and work in Brooklyn, N.Y. Over the years Brooklyn, rather
than Manhattan, has become the location of choice for New York artists
due to its more affordable studio and living space. The paintings
in the exhibit, selected by Bryan Gallery director Cynthia Farnell,
include Marci MacGuffie's Illuminating the Blind Spot, which has
been shown at the Goff + Rosenthal Gallery in Berlin.

New World Performance Laboratory's investigation of
the classic story Frankenstein by Mary Shelley incorporates
images from the novel and scenes from Shelley's own life. This production
depicts the epic battle between body, mind and soul fought on a landscape
of solitude and horror. Lord Byron, Mary Shelley, her husband Percy
Shelley and their friends come to life in this gothic nightmare.
The show includes a haunting vocal score exploring 19th century romantic
motifs with new music composed by Megan Elk. NWPL's Frankenstein,
which premiered as part of The Cleveland Playhouse's Fusion Fest,

Redemption is a documentary film about homelessness
and recycling in West Oakland, Calif. in the 21st
century. The film explores the connections between poverty, culture
and the environment. Who defines and controls space in a modern city?
Where does a marginalized group of recyclers fit within such
a landscape? And what role can a rag-tag army
of homeless recyclers play in shifting our perceptions about
the culture we live in.
Amir Soltani, a writer and activist who observes the homeless, says,
"This film is not an art form, but a life form where a community
can reconnect and solve a problem none of us can solve alone. Redemption doesn't
just mean redeeming cans and bottles, it's about redeeming people’s
lives."
