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..

SUMMARY:Gallery Opening
DESCRIPTION:GALLERY OPENING: MOHAMAD HAFEZ: UNSETTLED NOSTALGIA: February 10 – March 6 \nOpening Reception:\nThursday\, Feb 10\, 2022\, 6 to 8 p.m.\nthe Gallery at the Visual & Performing Arts Center\,\nWestside Campus \nA Syrian-American artist and architect\, Mohamad Hafez was born in Damascus\, raised in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia\, and educated in the Midwestern United States. Expressing the juxtaposition of East and West within him\, Hafez’s art reflects the political turmoil in the Middle East through the compilation of found objects\, paint\, and scrap metal. Using his architectural skills\, Hafez creates surrealistic Middle Eastern streetscapes that are architectural in their appearance yet politically charged in their content which addresses the devastation of war\, feelings of displacement\, and nostalgia for home. \nThe Department of Art was awarded a $13\,000 National Endowment for the Arts “Project Grant” to support “The Home Project\,” in which Hafez will pursue an extensive program of collaborative art installations and exhibition\, student mentoring\, public lectures\, and other activities during a year-long residency in the WCSU Department of Art that will begin in August and continue through the end of the 2021-22 academic year. Through these diverse and interactive exchanges\, he will draw from his unique experiences and artistic works to challenge participants in the project to create their own artistic interpretations of the meaning and concept of home to be exhibited alongside his work in the exhibition. \nGallery Hours: Monday–Friday noon to 4 p.m.\, Saturday–Sunday 1 to 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:COVID-19: Perspectives from a Data Scientist
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19: PERSPECTIVES FROM A DATA SCIENTIST: This is a talk by Dr. Rick Lawrence\, a Data Scientist who currently works on the COVID-19 Task force in Ridgefield. The discussion will be at 5:30 p.m. in Room 125 of the Science Building on the Midtown campus. \nWe begin with an overview of the COVID-19 data reported by the CDC and the State of Connecticut\, and describe the data-science framework we have developed to ingest and analyze this data. We then address the following key questions from a pure data-science perspective: \n1. What is the current state of the pandemic in the US and Connecticut? \n2. Based on the latest vaccination data\, will the US reach herd immunity? \n3. Do masks reduce COVID infection rates? \n4. What is the relationship between vaccination rates\, natural immunity\, and new case rates? \nWe conclude with some personal perspectives on the convergence of COVID data science and political science. Our goal is to have this talk accessible to both data scientists as well as a more general audience.
