“Mostly Collage” Solo Exhibition by TCA Member Judy Van Heyst

“Mostly Collage” Solo Exhibition by TCA Member Judy Van Heyst
Caffe Renato
Artist Reception
Friday May 3, from 5-7
The Taos Center for the Arts and Caffe Renato have partnered to feature TCA member art in the dining rooms of the cafe’s restaurant. TCA Exhibits at Caffe Renato will feature a solo exhibition by Judy Van Heyst, titled “Mostly Collage”. The exhibition will include her plein air paintings, but mostly her collage works. Found elements, both natural and manmade, are recurring materials in her collages and as elements they must interest, excite or facinate in some way.
Judy utilizes scraps which she has found, collected, has specially created or transformed as the initial stimulus in the making of her artwork. Scraps of paper, some with partial text, some cut or torn from her notebooks, some of light tissue paper that she has transformed by layers of paint, encaustic and acrylic binders are overlapped and layered, partially revealing, partially concealing what lies beneath.
Surface texture can be created by the use of scraps of fabric, pieces of string and yarn, grasses, leaves, coffee grounds and sand. It is a process of making a unified whole from a grouping of fragmentary materials of different essences. These scraps, these objects taken from familiar surroundings and recombined toward an aesthetic purpose also bring their own associations along. Images are suggested and subtly implied but not defined. It is essentially a poetic activity.
Her work includes recent abstract works. The designs move between opposites of hard-edged geometrical shapes to soft flowing, atmospheric suggestions of a pictorial space.
Always influenced by where she lives, where her travels take her. Van Heyst creates notebooks filled with ink and watercolor sketches, notes, and clippings that lead her on various journeys of exploration. "In my recent Anasazi (Chaco) Series 1 saw designs on pottery dating back to 1000 A.D while camping in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico. These were tight, precise designs using a sophisticated understanding of negative and positive spaces- -very hypnotizing and complex." She states that "I find that an expressive line drawing on site records places, people, details more useful to me than photos. I never forget a place, the feel, smell and sounds where I have done one of these drawings."
National Theatre London "This House"

National Theatre London "This House"
Taos Community Auditorium
Friday, May 24 and Saturday, May 25
Screening in HD of the live performance of the National Theatre of London's "This House" a new play by James Graham.
It’s 1974 and the corridors of Westminster ring with the sound of infighting and backbiting as Britain’s political parties battle to change the future of the nation, whatever it takes. In this hung parliament, the ruling party holds on by a thread. Votes are won and lost by one, fist fights erupt in the bars, and ill MPs are hauled in to cast their votes.
It’s a time when a staggering number of politicians die, and age-old traditions and allegiances are thrown aside in the struggle for power.
James Graham’s biting, energetic and critically-acclaimed new play strips politics down to the practical realities of those behind the scenes who roll up their sleeves, and on occasion bend the rules, to manoeuvre a diverse and conflicting chorus of MPs within the Mother of all Parliaments.
‘James Graham’s superb new drama held everyone enthralled throughout... Funny, touching and cliff-hangingly suspenseful.’ Daily Telegraph
'Aided by helmer Herrin's pedal-to-the-floor pace, Graham kicks off with the kind of action-packed exposition for which The West Wing was celebrated.' Variety

In 1970, Jeffrey Kagel walked away from the American dream of rock 'n' roll stardom, turning down the chance to record as lead singer for the band soon-to-be the Blue Oyster Cult.

Rated R for some sexuality/nudity
Terrence Malick's latest film explores the institution of love in a post-Tree of Life world, much to the pleasure of the late film critic Roger Ebert. – The Chicago Maroon
Neil (Ben Affleck) is an American traveling in Europe who meets and falls in love with Marina (Olga Kurylenko), an Ukrainian divorcée who is raising her 10-year-old daughter Tatiana in Paris. The lovers travel to Mont St. Michel, the island abbey off the coast of Normandy, basking in the wonder of their newfound romance. Neil makes a commitment to Marina, inviting her to relocate to his native Oklahoma with Tatiana. He takes a job as an environmental inspector and Marina settles into her new life in America with passion and vigor. After a holding pattern, their relationship cools. Marina finds solace in the company of another exile, the Catholic priest Father Quintana (Javier Bardem), who is undergoing a crisis of faith. Work pressures and increasing doubt pull Neil further apart from Marina, who returns to France with Tatiana when her visa expires. Neil reconnects with Jane (Rachel McAdams), an old flame. They fall in love until Neil learns that Marina has fallen on hard times. ...

Country: Germany, Language: German with English Subtitles, Runtime: 118 min., Not rated.
13-year-old Sinikka vanishes on a hot summer night. Her bicycle is found in the exact place where a girl was killed 23 years ago. The dramatic present forces those involved in the original case to face their past.
In his strikingly commanding debut feature, Swiss-born Baran bo Odar adapts Jan Costin Wagner’s novel with his own unmistakable signature. Gripping performances by top European actors - headed by Ulrich Thomsen (In a Better World, The Celebration), Sebastian Blomberg (The Baader Meinhof Complex), Katrin Sass (Good Bye, Lenin!) and Burghart Klaussner (The White Ribbon) - enrich this intense drama far beyond the crime genre.

Monday and Tuesday July 1 & 2 at 7:30 PM
Country: USA/UK/Qatar, Language: English/Hindi, Runtime: 130 min., Rated R for language, some violence and brief sexuality
We begin in 2011 in Lahore. At an outdoor café a Pakistani man named Changez (Riz Ahmed) tells Bobby (Liev Schreiber), an American journalist, about his experiences in the United States. Roll back ten years, and we find a younger Changez fresh from Princeton, seeking fortune and glory on Wall Street. The American Dream seems well within his grasp, complete with a smart and gorgeous artist girlfriend, Erica (Kate Hudson). But when the Twin Towers are attacked, a cultural divide slowly begins to crack open between Changez and Erica. Changez’s dream soon begins to slip into nightmare: profiled, wrongfully arrested, strip-searched and interrogated, he is transformed from a well-educated, upwardly mobile businessman to a scapegoat and perceived enemy. The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a story about conflicting ideologies where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death.
"There’s much to enjoy in ‘The Reluctant Fundamentalist’: fine photography, juicy supporting turns from Kiefer Sutherland and Om Puri, and a powerfully sustained sense of a man adrift in a world going mad. But Nair’s customary absence of subtlety does lead to the occasional howler – a scene at hipster Hudson’s art installation is particularly cringeworthy – and the conclusions she draws are fuzzy at best." - Tom Huddleston ,Time Out London
