Julie Wolfe
November 5 - December 23, 2010
Opening Reception
Hemphill Fine Arts
1515 14th Street NW
Washington, DC 20005.
Washington DC – Hemphill opens Julie Wolfe on Friday, November 5,

2010. The exhibition will remain on view through December 23, 2010.
Who conquers whom in the battle between life and death? The
juxtaposition of flourishing life with lurking death in Julie Wolfe’s artwork
addresses the artist’s preoccupation with corruptive elements that challenge
the strength of nature. Wolfe’s imagery reveals the interconnectedness of
life and death, demonstrating their unavoidable coexistence. However
powerful, these formidable renderings are intentionally covert. Not only
does Wolfe subtly incorporate sinister creatures and violent symbols, but
she succeeds in making them beautiful. She lures the viewer into a pleasing
environment infiltrated by camouflaged perils. In the painting titled
―Subversion,‖ a bouquet of blooming fruits and wildlife surrounds a knife
plunging through a human heart. In ―Decay,‖ a seductive topiary hangs
suspended from a chain and oozes with an ominous liquid. Her artwork
parallels the intersections between beauty and violence that exist within and
across cultures, a key example being the ancient artistic and personal
expression of tattoos. Through her artwork, Wolfe blurs the lines between
good and evil, tranquility and violence, and decay and regeneration,
portraying these forces as less antagonistic and more interconnected than
their definitions suggest.
Julie Wolfe received a BFA in Painting and Art History from The
University of Texas, Austin, TX. She has exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery
of Art and the Textile Museum, among others, and currently resides in
Washington DC. Wolfe’s debut exhibition at Hemphill includes recent
paintings, works on paper, and prints.

"Beyond the Singularity"

The Solo Show of Josh Taylor
"Beyond the Singularity" tells the final story of the fabled Gastonian civilization. Millenia ago a
great race of technologically advanced beings visited an infant planet. They chose this planet as
the site for the greatest genetic experiment ever conducted in the history of the multiverse.
Experiment #57. Out of their experiment rose many forms of unique and wonderous sentient life.
The existence of these "old gods" was only known through the myths and legends that arose from
the collective consciousness of the sentient lifeforms they created, and eventually passed into
obscurity. Then a genetic anomaly arose from the experiment. This anomaly would be known as
Dingle Doppleganger and would threaten the very fabric of reality on Gastonia. Dingle threw the
multiverse into a dark and terrible age. He destroyed everything, tore reality asunder and
recreated Gastonia in his own image. This image included the spread of his reality to the rest of
the multiverse and Dingle worked toward molding the few Gastonians left into a space faring race.
Now the "old gods" have returned to their grand experiment to find something terrible...

About the Artist
JOSHUA TAYLOR was born in New Jersey and continued his downward trajectory in hellish locales
in up-state New York and North Carolina before honing his art skills at Pratt Institute. Upon earning
his degree, he traversed the country, from California to Vermont, pursuing his art career. His fine
art has appeared in galleries in LA, NY, Europe, and the Philippines, and has also been featured in
various publications worldwide. Taylor's current body of work focuses on the history, myths and
legends of his "Gastonian Multiverse", an odd ancient doppleganger reality where the laws of
physics and the very fabric of time and space are falling apart at the seams. He currently resides in
Baltimore where he paints, pays for parking, and works on a series of graphic novels and web
comics entitled Bird & Girl.

UNFOLDING FOLDING: COLLIDER
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2010 through WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 12, 2011

COLLIDER is the collaborative team of artists BigPrototype & Lia Halloran
Opening Reception

details/Visual-Arts/Folding-Unfolding-
COLLIDER.aspx
Inspired by the gypsum crystals of the Naica Mine in Mexico, COLLIDER (the collaborative team of artists
BigPrototype & Lia Halloran) conceived Folding Unfolding: COLLIDER, an interactive exhibition/installation.
Gallery Admission is FREE. Cutting-edge 3D modeling technologies (Mya and Rhino) allow the exploration of the
geometry of basic crystal by replicating the forms of basic seed crystals: borax, gypsum, neptunite, and quartz.
Sarah Strauss and Lia Halloran met in graduate school at Yale University where they studied architecture and
fine art respectively. Their work is a result of over a decade of conversations about science, energy, gravity,
lesbians and skateboarding. Collider is an exciting opportunity for both Sarah and Lia to push beyond the normal
parameters of their practices and challenge each other to play and experiment.
Lia Halloran is a painter, photographer and professor of Fine Art at Chapman University in Los Angeles. She
received her BA from UCLA in 1999 and MFA from Yale in 2001 and is represented by DCKT Contemporary in
New York City. Lia's “Dark Skate” series, on exhibit in the Terrace Gallery through November 2010, directly
explores the physical relationship between skateboarder and architecture. The photographs take us outside the
studio, exploring corners of urban environments, the undersides of highway overpasses, and overlooks of
magnificent cityscapes. Halloran uses science and the natural world to map out physical and psychological spaces
in her paintings and photographs that address time in ways which stretch our notions of perception. Her work
was recently acquired by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (New York) and will be on view beginning in
November at the Guggenheim Bilbao in the exhibition “Haunted”.
BigPrototype is a Brooklyn-based design firm and fabrication lab co-founded in 2004 by Sarah Strauss. Sarah
currently teaches a class on Ornament and Decoration at Parsons School of Design SCE. She received her Master
of Architecture from the Yale School of Architecture in 2002 and her B.A. in Art History, Fine Arts and Chemistry
from Duke University. BigPrototype is a tactile practice that operates at the intersection of design and building,
occupying a territory that enables a new role in the design discipline.
Who is Thomas Gobena
For the past three years, Tommy T (Thomas T Gobena) has

been the bass player for gypsy punk powerhouse Gogol
Bordello, the New York City-based band known for their
blend of Gypsy, punk, dub reggae, metal and flamenco.
Tommy was born and raised in Ethiopia and the knowledge

of global rhythms he brings to Gogol’s sound has become
part of their unclassifiable approach to music making.
With the encouragement of his Gogol Bordello band mates,

Tommy has produced his first solo effort, The Prester John
Sessions, an aural travelogue that rages freely through the
music and culture of Ethiopia. "In the 70s, funk, wah-wah
pedals, and jazz had a huge impact on Ethiopian music,"
Tommy explains. "The Prester John Sessions will give people
an idea about the musical diversity of Ethiopia, which
includes influences and ideas borrowed from the sounds of
the 70's with the added bonus of up-to-date production
values."
Tommy T will play live at Cafe Asia this Saturday November,

13th. A Must Attend Event (1720 I St NW WDC).

Director Kaneto Shindo says he conceived of this film "as a 'cinematic poem' to try and capture the life of
human beings struggling like ants against the forces of nature." Using no dialogue, it patiently follows the daily
activities of a family of subsistence farmers on a remote island, turning their arduous chores into a hypnotic
visual rhythm and finding the beauty in perseverance. (Dir.: Kaneto Shindo, Japan, 1960, 94 min., B&W, no
dialogue)

reception for the artists
Saturday, November 13, 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.

"Sinner/Saint Reflexion",2009, archival pigment print on watercolor paper,32x38.5"
"Reflexions" is the newest series of works by this collaborative team and represents their fourth
solo exhibition at the Marsha Mateyka Gallery.
"Reflexions are inkblots of oppositions. Each of us wrote one of two contrasting words, vertically
using two different ink colors, on facing halves of a small piece of paper, then folded and pressed
them together. Although those original blotted forms have been scanned, greatly enlarged and
output as archival pigment prints on watercolor paper, they remain unaltered from their initial
chance configurations. All imagery emerged serendipitously, beyond our control or intervention,
purely a result of the random mingling of letterforms, fluid inks and viewer perceptions."

Featuring "Miserere" by Henryk Mikołaj Górecki
The first half of the evening there will be a full performance (120 voices) of Henryk Górecki's "Miserere", written in 1981 to honor the
Solidarity movement in Poland. Górecki wrote the work as a protest against communist government intervention and assault of
Solidarity's activists on March 19, 1981 in Bydgoszcz. After this incident the opposition organizations had been outlawed and in
December of that year Poland had been declared in a state of martial law. During this period, no performance of the work would have
been possible. The "Miserere" was finally premiered (with the composer conducting) in Włocławek on September 10, 1987 at the
town's music festival.
"Miserere" by Henryk Górecki will be the first-ever performance of this work in the Metropolitan DC Area.

Akira Kurosawa's Samurai-era murder mystery, in the words of Roger Ebert, "struck the world of film like a
thunderbolt," winning the top award at the Venice Film Festival, an Academy Award, and paving the way for
greater awareness of Japanese cinema around the world. By telling its story from the mutually contradictory
points of view of four separate characters—each with their own agenda—Kurosawa broke new ground for
narrative cinema and created an enduring classic. (Dir.: Akira Kurosawa, 1950, 88 min., B&W, Japanese with
English subtitles)

Meet the Artists Reception
Wednesday, November 17, 6:00-8:30 p.m.

The Gallery at 1111 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
(lobby of this office building)
The abstract paintings and sculpture of Anne Marchand and Craig Schaffer are well
paired in this exhibition with their graceful swirls and rhythms. Yet, they differ in their
genesis. Marchand paints visual song-poems and joyous expressions of life, using luminous
depth contrasted with surface richness. Schaffer creates sculptural pieces inspired by
science and nature. In this series, his work is based on fractal forms ... the shapes repeating
at different scales created by the ongoing processes of life; such as the branching of
plants to catch the sun.
Marchand has been with Zenith Gallery since its early days, and she has exhibited her
paintings in national and regional galleries and museums. Schaffer, new to Zenith, has also
shown his work nationally and internationally. Both artists' works are also featured in private
and public collections.

World Wildlife Fund’s
Kathryn Fuller Science for Nature Seminar Series
Diagnosing Social Ecological System

Many crucial problems affect social-ecological systems (SES) of diverse scales all the way from small lakes,
forests, and irrigation systems to the globe. If we do not really develop a common language for discussing
these questions, we are not going to move forward. In her talk, Dr. Ostrom will discuss the SES framework that
was initially developed for a special feature of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This
analytic framework examines the interactions among four domains – governance, users, resource systems, and
resource units – and the social and ecological outcomes that result from these interactions. She will apply it to
the analysis of the impact of institutional arrangements on the performance of irrigation systems in Nepal and
forests in 10 countries across the world, and discuss some of the current interests by scholars in Europe and the
U.S. to move on and develop it still further

Friendly, but Foreign: American/Australian Relations in the
Wake of the Nixon Doctrine
by James Curran, PhD

The enunciation of the Nixon doctrine on the Pacific Island of Guam in July 1969 sent a shockwave through much of the
Australian foreign policy elite. Alongside the British Government's earlier decision to withdraw its military presence from
East of Suez, Nixon's words heralded the collapse of Australia's Cold War policy - the desire to keep the Americans and
the British engaged in South East Asia. From this moment Australian politicians
and policymakers looked to place the relationship with the United States onto a more 'independent' footing. But efforts by
both political parties to invest the alliance with a new maturity were plagued by nagging doubts about whether America
would treat Australia as an 'equal' in the relationship and when and how they would be consulted by Washington
on policies directly affecting their own interests. This lecture explores the attempts by the Whitlam Labor government
(1972-75) to remodel the alliance and Washington's response to this new Australian assertiveness.
Thursday, November 18, 2010 from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Parish Gallery
1054 31st Street NW
Washington , DC 20007
202-944-2310
Parish Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition entitled, “Place Names” by painter, Ari Post. This exhibition will open with a
reception from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. on Friday, November 19th and will run thru November 30, 2010.
“Place Names” are the names given to or held by a geographical location, as a town, city, village, etc.
”The quality of a people’s history is written in the names of the places they have left behind; in the names of villages and
townships, of the hills and misplaced stones. For my history, little is left in the places themselves. My great grandparents on
both sides were born in small villages scattered throughout what is now Latvia , Poland and Russia , almost all of which were
wiped out over the last century. When even these scraps of history are lost, what becomes of the ancestral traditions and
beliefs? And what do they then mean? With cultures so violently uprooted and jostled, what is there to look back to?
Now, these paintings: Are they icons, or are they beggars? Do they close their eyes with their will bent toward God, or are they
just tired, resting, deep in thought? It doesn’t much matter. In my mind there is little difference. I wanted, despite the length of
time and the muddying of waters, to dwell on some faint image of lives past, and to give them back the places where they had
once lived; to allow the traditions and beliefs, now diluted and perhaps fundamentally lost, to linger momentarily. With such a
violent extermination of peoples and traditions, I do not know what will live on.” - Ari Post
“Ari is a trained draftsman and it shows in the work, inspired by contemplation of his Jewish heritage, a recent trip to Israel and a
search for universal spirituality. His paintings are 'old school'—stripped of flash, subject matter irony and mixed media techniques
of many painters showing today. The work is straight oil paining: pigment, linseed oil, turpentine and board, all applied with
earnest, grit and hard labor. The gnarled hands and contemplative faces in the pictures are painted in direct manner and
modeled to volume using interlocking and flowing flat planes accented by strong graphite or etched lines. These works resonate
with a viewer familiar with expressionist work done before 1940, yet the style is unique and surprising to the viewer. This series of
paintings allows a first look into the work of a young ambitious painter with unlimited potential and a deep reservoir of talent
that will no doubt produce much more work.” -David Richardson, painter
Ari Post is a painter living and working in the DC area. Studying illustration and design at Virginia Commonwealth University
in Richmond , he graduated in May of 2009 and came to Washington to find anything the art world had to offer. As gallery
assistant at the Aaron Gallery , and then as journalist and now editor for the local Georgetowner newspaper, he has continued
to pursue a career in the arts. This most recent body of work explores his own genealogy and the state of religion in this
country.
Parish Gallery primarily, but not exclusively, represents contemporary visual artists of significance from Africa and the African Diaspora. In selecting art and artists,
Parish Gallery exercises high ethical, curatorial and market selection standards, catering to the spirit of social preservation and regeneration in collecting the art. Parish
Gallery is open Tuesday thru Saturday from noon to 6:00 PM or by appointment.

BODYSCAPES by
Bill Travis
"The body is often compared to a landscape. The contours, the hair, the
textures evoke so many hills and valleys, forests, oceans, deserts,
caves. But there is more. What I want to do in this show is to explore the
connections between the body and landscape, not in terms of a one-to-
one correspondence, but as carriers of feeling." -Artist Bill Travis

This sci-fi epic by the great Soviet director Andrei Tarkovsky tells of a psychologist sent to investigate the
mysterious emanations of a planet that seem to be driving the crew of an orbiting space station mad. Poetic,
metaphysical, and hauntingly beautiful, it "stands with the greatest science-fiction movies ever made,"
according to film critic David Sterritt of the Christian Science Monitor. (Dir.: Andrei Tarkovsky, 1972, 165

Welcome to Millionaires Row, where the Gilded Age mansions of what is now Embassy Row still exude a
faded elegance. It was here that Martha Blow Wadsworth - an avid sportswoman competed with Theodore
Roosevelt and wealthy hostess Nellie Patterson competed with her sister Kitty McCormick over who had the
largest mansion and whose children would run The Chicago Tribune, the family newspaper. From Union
Station Plaza to Dupont Circle and Washington National Cathedral, author Mark Ozer examines the extant
Beaux-Arts architecture and tells the stories of the buildings, their architects and the socialites and the
politicians who lived and played behind those grand facades" Mark Ozer has translated his interest in
Washington into a series of books. The first, "Washington, DC: Politics and Place" has now been succeeded by
a book that focuses on one of the great streets of the world, our own Massachusetts Avenue. "
The author, Mark Ozer, an honors graduate in History and Science of Harvard College ’53, has in his travels
explored the interaction of history and geography of many of the great cities of the world. Since retirement after a
fruitful career as Professor of Neurology at Georgetown School of Medicine, for the past 10 years has given courses
on history of many of the world’s cities, including Washington at Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the American
University in Washington, DC. A resident of Washington since 1964, he has found the place of especial interest as
he has interpreted it to those from all over the world seeking a deeper understanding of the meaning of America.

Each month we interview one Fringe Artist from our Festival. We want to
give you a picture (whether you're an artist or patron) as to what it takes to
be a self-producing artist and to connect you to our Fringe community of
artists.
November's Fringe Artist is - Hunter Styles. Hunter is a Founding Member

of Wayward Theatre. Hunter is the author of the 2010 Fringe Festival "juicy
si-fi" Freud Meets Girl.
Hunter - along with the Wayward Theatre team will be back at the Fort for
fallFRINGE - November 5 - 21.
Q What makes your work unique?

A I'd like to think it's a love for twists, genre reversals, surprise endings, and unexpected turns of
character. And, whenever possible, I like putting an invisible gun onstage - something people see
early on and don't pay much attention to, but by the end they're like, Wooahhh, back away, back
away!

created that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their First Times.
The website became an instant phenomenon as over 40,000 stories poured in from around the
globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, shy, sexy and everything
in between. And now, these true stories and all of the unique characters in them are brought to
life by four actors in this acclaimed 90 minute play. myfirsttimetheplaydc.com

The America Project: utopia
Part 1 of an ambitious black and white photography project by this
CalArts graduate including 36 images documenting road trips taken
by the artist across the country over the past several years. Images
capture cultural markers of American history such as the Biosphere in
Oracle, Arizona, Ponce de Leon's Fountain of Youth in St. Augustine,
Florida, the duct tape "x" marking the spot of Kennedy's
assassination at Dealey Plaza in Dallas, TX. "utopia", the exhibition,
documents the highest and lowest of the collective American dream.
Essay by Larissa Leclair. Tan's work is in many public and private

collections including the Hirshhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden, the
Corcoran Gallery of Art, and the Albright-Knox Gallery.
Remote
A contemporary photography exhibition of four cutting-edge women

photographers. Featuring Lisa K. Blatt (San Francisco, CA), Lely
Constantinople (Washington, DC), Kate MacDonnell (Washington,
DC), and E. Brady Robinson (Washington, DC & Orlando, FL),
"Remote" refers to the desolate far reaches of the mind and the land
- places hard to reach but rich with reward when found and
discovered. Images of Antartica, compliment hypnotic ethereal
images of the sun and sky. Mysterious pictures of Paris, and romantic
images of Mexico connect and thread the desolation of the desert and
the rich colors of the evening sky. Don't miss this gorgeous show!

Opportunit ies
National Urban Fellows' leadership development program is a rigorous, 14-month, full-time graduate degree
program comprising two semesters of academic course work and a nine-month mentorship assignment. Fellows
receive a $25,000 stipend, health insurance, a book allowance, relocation and travel reimbursement, and full
payment of tuition, in addition to their ongoing personal and professional development.
The program culminates in a Master of Public Administration (MPA) degree from the City of New York's Bernard
M. Baruch College, School of Public Affairs. During the mentorship, Fellows complete course work via distance
learning. An MPA degree is awarded to Fellows upon completion of all academic and program requirements.
Following graduation, Fellows become part of a prestigious group of well over 1,000 multicultural, multiracial
alumni who are graduates of the National Urban Fellows program and who are effecting positive changes in
communities nationally and internationally. Individually and collectively, they are helping to create an equitable
and just society while serving as role models for future generations.
Fellows apply their expertise in the public sector, contributing their newly acquired leadership skills to public
service for the betterment of their communities and the nation. They return to their former or new occupations
more experienced in public policy decision-making and are better prepared to make a strong commitment to
equity and social justice, thereby fulfilling the mission of the program. Finally, Fellows give back to the
organization that supported them, recognizing that their ongoing commitment, engagement and involvement
and/or annual giving will help to secure the future of National Urban Fellows.

To all our partners in the DC region -

Thanks again for your support of StreetWise Partners' programs over the last 12 months. We are excited about further
developing and improving our Career Ventures program, as well as our Alumni workshops over the next year, to better help
motivated low-income individuals. Currently 77% of participants have a job, a promotion or pay-rise, or are enrolled in a
career advancing education program within 6 months of starting our Career Ventures program. We want to get this up to
100%!
I hope you will continue to support our efforts as a volunteer, and we have a new Mock Interview Day on July 13th (downtown
Washington, D.C., 6:30pm - 9:00pm) that we're offering to individuals who are applying to participate in our Fall
program. Volunteers will conduct three mock interviews in different interviewer ‘roles’ - CEO, Line Manager,
HR Manager – to give the experience of different types of interviews. Volunteers then give feedback about their
performance and their resume. You can RSVP to volunteer at this event by responding to this email!
If you're interested in helping us with our current challenge campaign to raise $100,000 by the end of June (last day of the
campaign today!), then you can text the word ‘partners’ to 20222 now to donate $10 to support our incredible programs. An
easy way to make a difference, without even leaving your desk! (more details below).
Thank you so much for your ongoing support.
Best wishes,
Lauren
