April - Sian Robertson

Curated by Robert Rindler

Artist Reception: April 6, 3-5 pm

ARTIST’S STATEMENT

 I have always been drawn to maps, and one of my favorite things about using them to create art is that they retain the inherent history of the person who owned them before me - a history I am rarely privy to yet I feel becomes part of the work I create. I often imagine maps and atlases rolling off the printing press - household names like Hammond, AAA, Rand McNally, (or OrdInance Survey from the UK, where I grew up). And somehow one of the tens of thousands of copies of that particular edition, maybe decades (once or twice even a century) after it was printed, finds its way to me. The paper is worn at the folds, yellowed at the edges, cities are circled, routes are highlighted. Coffee spills, phone numbers, and directional notes all speak to its earlier life as a functional object in someone else’s hands. Through these maps I experience histories small and large as I vicariously travel other people's vacations, and witness the downfall of empires as borders move and country names change.

I like to say that a beautiful map makes my heart race and my hand reach for my X-acto knife. And through the cutting and tearing, the layering and pasting, the rolling and folding of that one atlas or single fold out map, I too become part of its history.

ARTIST’S BIO

Sian Robertson grew up in South West Wales, in the UK and moved to America in 1992. After seven years in San Francisco she settled on Cape Cod, where her art career began. 

Robertson has never received any formal art training but has been cutting and pasting, amongst many other creative pursuits, since she was a child. Since 2015 she has had solo shows almost annually in galleries in Provincetown, MA, as well as being part of many juried and group shows in galleries and arts institutions in Provincetown, across Cape Cod, and in Boston. In 2024 she was invited by Twenty Summers to create her first ever site-specific installation, Impermanence, at the Hawthorne Barn in Provincetown, MA.

Robertson has received several awards for her work, and has been featured in local and national publications including Uppercase Magazine, the Provincetown Banner, and the Provincetown Independent. She teaches classes at the Provincetown Art Association.

Pond Hill School

Alice Di Micele is an Americana/Folk artist, rooted in the natural world, using the earth as her primary source of inspiration, threading its essence into her music. Alice’s connection to nature has created a deep bond with her listeners over the decades, gifting people a safe space to express their emotions and heal in the process. Throughout her career, she has released a staggering 17 albums, including her latest works ‘Every Seed We Plant’ and ‘Interpretations: Vol 1’, building a dedicated fanbase along the way.

Alice Di Micele weaves a rich tapestry of sounds, from the early days of her folk-inspired songs, through to the sensual influences of jazz and soul, and the energetic pulse of funk and rock. Her kaleidoscopic soundscape is grounded by her warm, magnetic vocals. From rich deep tones to impressive high notes, and gorgeous Joni Mitchell-esque vibrato inflexions, Alice’s vocals stretch over five octaves, giving her voice both power and intimacy.

Alice’s story began as a singer, first in her school choir and later as a teenager in a local rock band. But her life took a new direction after watching David Grisman Quintet perform at Carnegie Hall. Inspired by the show, she called her band’s guitarist that same night and asked him to teach her guitar, determined to become a writer herself. And so, her lifelong love affair with songwriting began.

1988 would see the release of Alice Di Micele’s debut album ‘Make A Change’, which was followed by many years of touring and performances at festivals and music venues from the Strawberry Music Festival to Fineline Music Cafe in Minneapolis. Her time on the road has been an extraordinary one, sharing the stage with the likes of legends such as Bonnie Raitt and Joan Baez to Arlo Guthrie, and even the man who sparked it all, David Grisman. Throughout this, she has remained a true independent musician, releasing and touring her music without the help of a record label or management, instead focusing on her audience and building a loyal following.

Documetary Screening: “The Power of Forgiveness” (2008)

Presented in Partnership with ArtPeaceMakers and First Congregational Church of Wellfleet

Forgiveness is a crucial part of what it means to be human, and to participate in community. What benefits does practicing forgiveness have? How do we learn to forgive? How do we choose to forgive when circumstances seem unforgivable? Join us for a showing of Martin Doblmeier's The Power of Forgiveness. This 75-minute- long film weaves together interviews with author and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, Vietnamese monk and war-resister Thich Nhat Hanh, as well as examining case studies on reconciliation in Northern Ireland, in the aftermath of a school shooting, and in coming to terms with the impact of both 9/11 and gang violence. Following the film, there will be a discussion led by Rev. Jon Elsensohn from the First Congregational Church, as well as members of Wellfleet's Artpeacemakers, as we examine the role of forgiveness in our own lives and circumstances. All are welcome!

CROSS-POLLINATION:

PORTRAITS OF FUSION AND IDENTITY Cross-pollination is a process that sparks diverse growth. It blends distinct elements, creating new life and possibilities. In the world of art, this concept takes on a profound meaning— where the fusion of cultures, identities, and perspectives gives rise to newfound expressions of self and a greater understanding of others. Join us for Cross-Pollination, a vibrant celebration of artistic synergy, as we unveil Amy Kandall's new ceramic studio, Truro Clay Works, alongside the dynamic portrait photography of Joe Navas. This event brings together two artists whose work is deeply rooted in community, diversity, and storytelling-melding the tactile beauty of clay with the intimate power of portraiture.

Following up on last year's Open University "What is a Poem?" course, this class will revisit the discussion in relation to late 20th- and early 21st - century American poetry.  Even while contemporary poets continue to draw on the received tradition (Bradstreet, Dickinson, Whitman, Longfellow,et al.), poetic fundamentals are being radically revisited and reconsidered.  Concepts as basic as the idea of what it means to write "American" are being readdressed and expanded by Anglophone poets.  

In addition, ways of composing and distributing poems have radically altered;  poetic content as well as sheer volume have expanded in extraordinary ways.  The work of recent and present generations has been much enriched by such new approaches. We'll read and discuss some of these poets' more accessible poems, along with some of their most challenging offerings. 

Although the syllabus will be built on the topical framework of last year's course, the instructor will also be proposing an overlapping set of poetic practice "clusters" as an aid to understanding the very wide range of contemporary poetry in English.  (Class size will be limited to 20 attendees; no prerequisite)

• Class One: Memory and Literacy, continued with reference to ethnography and ethnicity (Jerome Rothenberg; Cecilia Vicuña; Eduardo C. Corral, among others)

• Class Two: Prosody and Dance, continued , with reference to The New York School,  institutional reaction and influence (John Ashbery; Edwin Denby; Susan Wheeler, among others)

• Class Three: American English, American Poems, continued, with reference to Black Mountain, Objectivism and LANGUAGE poetry (Charles Olson; Charles Reznikoff; Claudia Rankine, among others

• Class Four: Incantation, Prophecy, Madness, continued, with reference to Naropa University and The Poetry Project (Allen Ginsburg; Ezra Pound; Anne Waldman, among others)

• Class Five: Song's Larger Purposes, continued, with reference to ecopoetics, BLM, feminism and gender identity (Gary Snyder;  Ishion Hutchinson; Layli Long Soldier, among others)

Among them are John Singer Sargent, Frank Benson, Edward Hopper, Scot Prior, Frank Stella, Alex Katz, Helen Frankenthaler, Michael Mazur, Louise Nevelson and Maya Lin.

Each session will focus on artists who worked in the same time frame but chose variant styles and subjects. We will look at paintings, graphic arts, and sculpture. Most of the works selected are from New England museums and libraries.

Mondays, 4-6PM, on Zoom

"Under Pressure" examines how individuals--both real and fictional--react to dictatorships, totalitarian regimes, and all other systems that restrict freedom of expression. The syllabus includes films, plays, and books, as well as newspaper and magazine articles. Much of the class time will be devoted to rigorous moral debate: what is the responsibility of the artist living in a repressive regime; what can we expect of individuals in the face of evil; is collaboration always contemptible. We will re-examine these questions—and our convictions—each week in the context of that day’s readings and viewings.    

Week 1: Kryzstof Kieslowski and two forms of censorship:  Working in totalitarian Poland and the "free market" of the West.  Films:  two excerpts from his "Decalogue"  and "Blue"   Available on Criterion

Week 2: The Sacrifice: Sophocles and Jean Annouilh:  Antigone. The story of Oedipus' faithful daughter who defies an imperial edict, told from two wildly diverse viewpoints.

Week 3: Making Films in Iran:Abbas Kiarostami:   Choosing to stay and work in fundamentalist Iran.  Films: "A Taste of Cherry"   "Close-Up"

Week 4: Shut Up and Dribble:  African American athlete activism, from Tommy Smith to Arthur Ashe to Colin Kaepernick. Readings to be assigned.

Moving forward, we examine the rules of international trade, the development of U.S. trade policy, and a review of Biden and Trump trade policies. Then we move forward to review trade with China and trade issues related to climate change. The final focus of our discussion is on the question: Is there a better way to address U.S. trade issues? Peter Allgeier’s experience, his having served as Deputy U.S. Trade Representative and U.S. Ambassador to the World Trade Organization, provides him with a solid footing to guide us in addressing this question, one that comes at an opportune time in modern trade history.

20 Trailblazing Women Filmmakers

Thursdays, 1:30 - 3:30

Wellfleet Preservation Hall

Movies play a key role in spreading awareness among women, uncovering their potential, challenging the male-dominated world and making further social change. Historically, the film industry has portrayed women as wives, lovers, and mothers, or as glorified objects of beauty, symbolizing sex appeal and entertainment. However due to the feminist movement, gender stereotypes are finally being challenged, and more complex female characters are represented on screen.

Female directors offer the audience an unbiased and realistic image of women that aligns with their actual status in society. Additionally, films directed by women are more often written by women and have more leading female characters than in films directed by male filmmakers.

This course will address the greater recognition women directors are beginning to receive and honor 20 remarkable women who blazed the trail.

The course will be taught in 20 classes spread out over 4 sessions. This spring we will be discussing the following 5 filmmakers and their films:

1.        BARBARA STREISAND (“Yentl” 1984)

2.        AVA DUVERNAY (“Origin” 2023)

3.        JUSTINE TRIET (“Anatomy of a Fall” 2023)

The duo of Richard Rodgers (1902–1979) and lyricist-librettist Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960) created a series of innovative and influential American musicals between 1943 and 1960. Their musical theater writing partnership has been called the greatest of the 20th century, presenting popular Broadway productions throughout a period considered the "golden age" of musical theater. Five of their shows, Oklahoma!, Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I, and The Sound of Music were outstanding successes, as was the television broadcast of Cinderella (1957). But what is their lasting impact today, over six decades after their last Broadway musical was written? Is their work still relevant, or has the art form evolved far beyond their striking innovations and popularity during a time long gone by? In an effort to satisfactorily answer these questions, Marc Strauss, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Conservatory of Theatre and Dance, Southeast Missouri State University, will curate, lecture, and lead discussion on numerous songs and dances from the Rodgers and Hammerstein canon over the five-week, ten-hour period of this spring 2025 OUW course.

In concert on their Northeast Tour.

Orkney (Scotland) born fiddler Louise Bichan and Indiana (USA) mandolinist Ethan Setiawan present a collaboration and meeting of their musical worlds. A path steeped in the fiddle traditions of their respective sides of the Atlantic, the journey taken wends through Scottish, oldtime, and Swedish inspired music intertwined with contemporary compositions. Bichan’s fiddle is a melodic foil to Setiawan’s counterpoint and harmonic depth, and the two weave in and out seamlessly.

The ever-changing coastline of Cape Cod is vibrant, diverse, and dynamic. Barrier beaches, salt marshes, tidal flats, coastal heathlands, and maritime forests are just some of the incredible systems we will explore in this series of hikes that celebrate these unique and essential habitats dotting our coastline.

Traverse the expansive dunes of the Provincelands as we hike towards the Race Point light in search of whales, seals, sea ducks, alcids, and more! This hike is 4mi in length, and portions include walking on soft sand.

During the program, we make stops to enjoy birds, other wildlife, and the area's unique cultural history. We will also take water breaks and stop for lunch.

Plays are meant to be heard out loud, but unless you have tickets to the theater, how often do you have a chance to hear one? Join our play-reading group, where we will read classic to contemporary plays out loud to better appreciate the language and cadence of the written dialogue! This will be a great opportunity to discover plays you may not be familiar with, or rediscover old favorites seen (or heard) in a new light. Everyone is welcome to participate. Acting experience not required.

John Anderson and Lynn C. Miller

April 24, May 1, 8, 15, 22

Thursdays, 2-4PM on Zoom

This course examines texts by and about Edith Wharton, with a central focus on her bestselling 1905 novel The House of Mirth. Both instructors have written texts in which Wharton appears as a character, and these also will be assigned reading for the class. Lynn C. Miller’s novel, The Angel of Devastation, a work-in-progress, portrays Wharton writing The House of Mirth, placing the novel in a biographical context, juxtaposed with the story of a contemporary playwright adapting The House of Mirth for the stage. John Dennis Anderson’s play, A Cultivated Friendship, co-authored by Karen Vuranch, portrays Wharton at the end of her life and focuses on her close friendship with the much-younger writer Louis Bromfield.

The class will be assigned to read selected chapters from The Angel of Devastation before the first class meeting. The second and third classes will be devoted to The House of Mirth. The fourth class will cover short stories by Wharton that will include “Roman Fever” and “All Souls,’” and the last class will discuss A Cultivated Friendship.

Metropolitan Opera Live in HD at WHAT

Salome

Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts his first Met performances of Strauss’s white-hot one-act tragedy, which receives its first new production at the company in 20 years. Claus Guth, one of Europe’s leading opera directors, gives the biblical story—already filtered through the beautiful and strange imagination of Oscar Wilde’s play—a psychologically perceptive, Victorian-era setting rich in symbolism and subtle shades of darkness and light. Headlining the new staging is soprano Elza van den Heever as the abused and unhinged antiheroine, who demands the head of Jochanaan, sung by celebrated baritone Peter Mattei. Tenor Gerhard Siegel is Salome’s lecherous stepfather, King Herod, with mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung as his wife, Herodias, and tenor Piotr Buszewski as Narraboth. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.
