Emilie Louise Gossiaux, presented by Mother Gallery (Beacon, NY) at Untitled Art, Miami Beach 2022, has been awarded the inaugural Pébéo Production Prize. 

The Pébéo Production Prize is a hybrid cash and in-kind materials award to an artist working towards an exhibition at an institution or non-profit organization in 2023/24. This year's prize will support multidisciplinary artist Emilie Louise Gossiauxtowards her first major solo exhibition at a large American institution, The Queens Museum, in the Fall of this year.

Emilie Louise Gossiaux (b. 1989 New Orleans, LA and based in NYC) received a BFA from The Cooper Union School of Art in 2014, and an MFA in Sculpture from Yale School of Art in 2019. Since losing her vision due to a traffic accident in 2010, Gossiaux’s altered experiences have influenced her practice's trajectory — drawing on inspiration from dreams, memories, and non-visual sensory perceptions. Gossiaux connects to landscape and body without sight. As such, her drawings and ceramics pertain deeply to bodily autonomy, exploring themes such as love, intimacy, and the interdependent relationships between humans and non-human species. Much of her work is inspired by the interspecies bond she has with her Guide Dog, London, and celebrates disability pride. Simultaneously, she disrupts the Anthropocene understanding of agency and the hierarchic ordering between humans and animals.

Gossiaux's recent solo shows include Significant Otherness at Mother Gallery (New York, NY); Memory of a Body at Mother Gallery (Beacon, NY); and After Image at False Flag Gallery (New York, NY). Her participation in group shows, both domestic and internationally, include the Wellcome Collection (London, UK, 2022); 1969 Gallery (New York, NY 2022); The Aldrich Museum (Ridgefield, CT, 2022); Gallery 400 (Chicago, IL 2022); MoMA PS 1 (New York, NY 2021); Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt (Frankfurt, Germany, 2021); The Krannert Art Museum (Champagne, IL, 2021); The Shed (New York, NY, 2021); SculptureCenter (New York, NY, 2020); and The Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum (New York, NY, 2018).

This Exhibitor Prize is furnished by Pébéo — A benchmark in the field of graphic art, the Pébéo family business has specialized in creating colors for many years. Striking the balance between innovation and an educational approach, the company promotes development and creativity through the practice of art.

Monica Bauchwitz, Robert Meyer & Mihai Marica
Thursday, March 23
1:00 PM
Concerts in the Heights presents “Tasting Menu” – a program for string trio of 4 short works from Finland, Hungary, France and Germany. Each composer is representing a distinct and separate style of music which will whet your appetite! Music by Jean Sibelius - the noted Finnish symphonist, Jean Cras – an unjustly forgotten French composer who was also a career naval officer, Zoltan Kodaly -the Hungarian composer and musicologist, and Max Reger – the brilliant German composer, pianist, organist, teacher and conductor. Our Artistic Director Monica Bauchwitz will be joined by Robert Meyer on the viola – a seasoned chamber musician who has been hailed as an “outstanding musician” by the Boston Globe, and Mihai Marica on cello. Mihai is a prize-winner from several international competitions and appears frequently with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
Brilliant and Bombastic
Monica Bauchwitz, CJ Camieri, Karl Kramer & Mike Lormand

Concerts in the Heights presents “Brilliant and Bombastic” – a program for brass trio with a special appearance by our Artistic Director in the role of Narrator! Multi-instrumentalist and trumpeter CJ Camieri – a Juilliard-trained member of Paul Simon’s band, trombonist Mike Lormand – one of the most versatile and experienced freelance trombonists of his generation, and hornist Karl Kramer will take you on a journey of jazz and fanfares, Native American chants and Hollywood ballads.
Obsession
Music by Bach, Ysaÿe and Kramer for six violins, with dancers and actor
Special guests: String Orchestra of New York City with actor Jack Clark, dancers Angelina Laguna and A’lia Martin.
Thursday, May 11
1:00 PM
The Violin section of String Orchestra of New York City will perform special arrangements of the music by Ysaÿe and Bach, as well as new music by Karl Kramer. Ysaÿe was a world-renowned Belgian violinist who as a composer took his inspiration from Bach. His solo-sonata “Obsession” is re-arranged for six violins, exploring the structure and sonic potential of the score. This work inspired Karl Kramer to write a one-man play for the young actor Jack Clark - currently a student at Fordham University. Bach’s Second Suite for solo Cello will be presented in Karl Kramer’s new arrangement for the same instrumentation of six violins. He has also written his own suite in direct response to Bach’s score. Young dancers Angelina Laguna and A’lia Martin have provided choreography and will dance to these movements. String Orchestra of New York City has released several CDs, and performed across the US to great acclaim, and have been called “a composer’s dream” by Pulitzer-winning composer Aaron Jay Kernis.
We are located in the Fine Arts Building.
Our Address is : 250 Bedford Park Blvd West
Bronx, NY 10468

Elliot Landy's new book about THE BAND


 
A: To help expand the Band's Legacy for Us All
 
In 1968-1969 I spent most of my time with The Band photographing them at work and at play in their homes in and around Woodstock, NY. We were friends and I traveled with them as they began touring and recording and produced the iconic images for the “Music from Big Pink” and “The Band” albums. I was the only photographer that had any access to them during this period. It was a time of creativity, music, marijuana and brotherhood.  I shot over 10,000 photographs, most of which have never been seen before. In 2015 I published my first book of these photos (The Band Photographs, 1968-1969) but it only contained 200 images and was limited to160 pages.
 
A year or two later I began looking at a trove of photographs I had uncovered in the process of making the first book. I found an incredible number of really beautiful images that I felt must be published in order to complete a true pictorial history of this amazing group.
 
Announcing the birth of Volume 2 of The Band Photographs
 
 
This new book, Volume 2, will be the the same 12x12 inch size,160 pages as the first book and printed with the same beautiful quality and heavyweighht paper. It will be a suitable mate to it and will fit beautifully alongside your favorite vinyl records by The Band. 
 
In addition to reserving your copy of The Band Photographs, 1968-1969, Volume 2, this Kickstarter campaign offers a selection of Fine Art prints, Lithos and Posters, all signed by me, at prices which are 30-50% less than they normally cost.
 
 
 
With your support it will be possible to publish The Band Photographs, 1968-1969 Volume 2 and help expand The Band's legacy for us all.
