SUMMARY:The Future Isn't What it Used to Be: Green Hydrogen
DESCRIPTION:THE FUTURE ISN’T WHAT IT USED TO BE: How do we implement Green Hydrogen and Fusion energies?  \nHuman civilization needs a reliable supply energy. When (if?) the brakes are put on fossil carbon\, we will need a variety of replacements. Some post-carbon sources are well known (solar\, wind\, hydro) while others are not.  We will learn that some solutions supply energy\, while others conserve it.  A note of caution from Mitch himself\, “The speaker is an ecologist\, not an engineer or city planner. Therefore\, definitive solutions are unlikely to be proposed. Many ideas will be discussed\, however\, and I hope that the audience will contribute some good ones.” \nThe C.H. Booth Library in Newtown will welcome Dr. Mitch Wagener\, Climate Change Educator\, WCSU Professor of Biology\, as part of its efforts to bring the 2023 UN Climate Conference in the United Arab Emirates\, Dubai  Nov. 30 – Dec. 12 to the attention of its patrons. \n\n\nDate:\nThursday Jul 13\, 2023\n\nTime:\n7  –  8:30 p.m.\n\nLocation: THIS IS A VIRTUAL EVENT\nC.H. Booth Library Virtual Meeting Space 1\n\nRegister in advance at https://www.eventkeeper.com/code/ekform.cfm?curOrg=CHBOOTH&curID=636802&CFID=82462294&CFTOKEN=75fde0e2e4b23f50-E21E6FF5-D4AE-528A-535022AA29CE1EDA

SUMMARY:Gallery Talk - Landscape in Art: From Delight to Alert by Marcy Freedman
DESCRIPTION:GALLERY TALK – LANDSCAPE IN ART: FROM DELIGHT TO ALERT BY MARCY FREEDMAN: As part of the exhibition\, Address: Earth in the Gallery at the Visual & Performing Arts Center\, artist and art historian Marcy B Freedman will present a gallery talk\, “Landscape in Art: From Delight to Alert\,” from 6:30 to 8 p.m. This event will take place in Choir Room 108 at the Visual & Performing Arts Center\, WCSU’s Westside Campus. \nFreedman will examine the role of the natural world in works of art dating from the Renaissance to the present. She will discuss the ways in which the landscape was subordinate to the holy figures in religious paintings of the 15th and 16th centuries in Italy\, where the Catholic Church was a dominant force in the world of art. Moving on to the 17th-century\, Freedman will highlight those artists in the Protestant areas of northern Europe who were pioneers in the development of a tradition of landscape painting that impacted the art of the 19th-century Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. She will then discuss the Cubist and Expressionist artists of the early 20th-century\, who found radical new ways of engaging with the natural world as they explored alternatives to naturalistic representation. Finally\, Freedman will consider those Earth artists whose monumental outdoor projects brought attention to the environmental movement of the late 20th century. She will conclude with an homage to a number of contemporary artists – such as Olafur Eliasson and Maya Lin – who are using their art to alert us to the devastating effects of climate change upon our earth. \nThe Address: Earth Exhibition will be on view through December 4\, 2022. The gallery will be open before and after the gallery talk and during regular gallery hours: Tues-Fri\, noon to 4 p.m.\, and Sat-Sun\, 1 to 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:"Pond Reflections"
DESCRIPTION:FILM SCREENING & ARTIST TALK WITH ADDRESS: EARTH ARTIST\, ROSALIND SCHNEIDER: As part of the exhibition\, Address: Earth in the Gallery at the Visual & Performing Arts Center\, artist\, and filmmaker Rosalind Schneider will present a screening of her film\, “Pond Reflections\,” and discuss her work from 6:30 to 8 p.m. This event will take place in Choir Room 108 at the Visual & Performing Arts Center. \n“Pond Reflections” is footage collected over three years of seasonal reflections on water as the primal source of creation. Surrounding trees\, rocks\, and landscape trace the cycle of life. Peter Rubin\, a recent graduate of the Berklee School of Music composed the film score and may also participate in the discussion. \nRosalind Schneider creates works that transcend their source to form a new reference to a visionary landscape. She creates layered landscape images with multiple realities that progress from the real into abstraction and a fusion of the two. Her Digital Fusion paintings result from the capture of a video frame as a starting point and are realized through hands-on manipulation. The surfaces are transformed by drawing\, acrylic\, and glass particle collage resulting in a luminous translation that speaks to its moving image origin. Multiple realities are birthed from video. Schneider was the first artist to show the film as an art at the Hirshhorn Museum\, following a solo show of her films at the Whitney Museum. Exhibitions of film\, video\, digital prints\, and paintings include the Bronx Museum of the Arts\, Islip Museum\, Chelsea Museum\, Hudson River Museum\, SculptureCenter\, and MOMA (Carte Blanche: Women Writing the Language of Cinema). Her 16mm films are currently being restored by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and will be part of the film archive at the Academy Museum. \nMore of Schneider’s work is on view in the exhibition\, Address: Earth\, from October 13 through December 4\, 2022. The gallery will be open before and after the film screening and during regular gallery hours: Tues-Fri\, noon to 4 p.m.\, and Sat-Sun\, 1 to 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Danbury's Castle: The Hearthstone
DESCRIPTION:DANBURY’S CASTLE: ARCHITECT E.G.W. DIETRICH AND HIS DESIGN OF THE HEARTHSTONE: For the past 10 years\, Christopher Jend has researched architect E. G. W. Dietrich (1875-1924) documenting nearly 450 of his designs. In this presentation\, Jend will discuss Dietrich’s body of work from eye-catching shingle style designs to his contributions to the arts and crafts style and place in context Dietrich’s design of the local Danbury landmark “the Hearthstone.” Constructed between 1895-99 for successful portrait photographer E. Starr Sanford\, this remarkable castle-like structure is composed of local stone quarried on the site. Exhibiting historic Norman as well as Shingle Style and Arts and Crafts elements\, this unique home served as a private residence until it was purchased by the City of Danbury in 1985. Despite being listed on the National Register of Historic Places\, the house and outbuildings suffered from neglect\, yet the stone walls still stand evoking romantic ideas of architecture and place. \nAttend in-person or by Zoom at 6 p.m..
