    <title>Mar  7, 2010: 50% Grey: Czech Photography Reconsidered at Museum-Contemporary Photograph</title>
    <description><![CDATA[This exhibition brings together the work of six contemporary Czech artists (two of whom work collaboratively), all of whom reflect on the very materials of photography and find poetic resonance in a lack of obviously-poetic subject matter. As the analog technology of photography fades away, these artists subversively employ a variety of photographic materials to investigate the potential for photographic veracity, and push the idea of framing and selection to counter any perceived objectivity the medium might have.<br />

    <title>Mar 31, 2010: ON! the Beginnings of the Electric Sound Generation at Museum of Making Music</title>
    <description><![CDATA[The exhibition presents rarely displayed examples of &quot;firsts&quot; in electrified instruments. Of special note are numerous examples of iconic electric guitars showing a cornucopia of design ideas for electric pickups, volume and tone controls, bridges, tailpieces and tremolo arms, as well as instrument shapes and the incorporation of new materials. These electric and electro-acoustic guitars are displayed alongside other &quot;firsts&quot; including an electric zither, banjos, violins, basses, keyboards, and amplifiers, thus demonstrating how the new technology was applied to many instrument families. In addition, the exhibition shows the development of electric pickup technology as well as the techniques for gaining control over sound and tone through amplification, recording, and special effects such as tremolo, reverb, and echo. By exploring the intersection of technology and music through the invention and diffusion of electric guitar, the exhibition shows how the desire to crank up the volume ultimately led to the creation of a new sound.<br />

    <title>May 10, 2010: Wahala Temi - Body Work, Opening Reception at Walsh Gallery at Seton Hall University</title>
    <description><![CDATA[The Walsh Gallery at Seton Hall University is hosting a solo exhibition of new work by artist Wahala Temi.  The show, which is curated by Jeanne Brasile, will feature Temi’s current body of work in various media including; painting, sculpture and installation.  Temi’s current artistic output is an expression of her experiences of having lived in both Brooklyn and Lagos, Nigeria during her formative years.  The results are a body of work that critiques contemporary life in the West and elsewhere touching upon themes of abuse, power, beauty, control/submission and pain/sacrifice of African women in particular.  <br /><br />
Jeanne Brasile says of Wahala Temi’s work, “Temi’s repetitive use of materials such as beading, West African brooms, wooden combs and thread from Nigerian culture politicizes these objects through complex associations of their placement and proximity to one another in the art.  Both artist and art act as catalyzing agents for dialogues about cultural practices, consumerism, technology, mechanization and body image.”  The “Body Work” exhibition is a two part show.  Part one first appeared at The Lower Eastside Girls Club in Manhattan in February, 2010.  Part two, on view at the Walsh Gallery will encompass over 2,000 square feet and will consist primarily of large-scale work and installation that have yet to be seen publicly.<br />

LOS ANGELES- Over two Saturdays in March Esotouric, the eclectic bus adventure company whose tours reveal L.A.&#39;s secret history, offers a pair of bus tours dedicated to the city&#39;s greatest detective novelist, Raymond Chandler, from the downtown streets he roamed as a young oil executive to his uniquely poisonous portrayal of Santa Monica (fictionalized as Bay City). Taken together or individually, the tours reveal the secret historic city that still breathes under our modern streets, and offers unexpected insight into the life and work of a beloved writer and his immortal white knight detective hero Philip Marlowe.<br /><br />
And just to show that Chandler scholarship continues to evolve 50 years after his death, the March 13 &quot;Chandler&#39;s L.A.&quot; tour features a startling new theory developed by Esotouric&#39;s Richard Schave and Kim Cooper. Get on the bus to learn all about the idealistic Los Angeles policeman whose one-man crusade against the evils of his own department is among the most convincing cases for a real life prototype of the Philip Marlowe character ever proposed. And you won&#39;t hear about him in any of the Chandler biographies, but only on the Esotouric bus.<br /><br />
For more original Chandler information uncovered by Esotouric, see the blog post &quot;Raymond Chandler and the Creamery&quot; about the criminal happenings the young writer might have witnessed at his first job in Los Angeles, at the link below.<br />

ABOUT THE TOURS: <br /><br />
RAYMOND CHANDLER&#39;S LOS ANGELES: IN A LONELY PLACE (March 13) delves deep into a lost city that exists in shadowy parallels to contemporary LA.  Bungalows. Crime. Hollywood. Blondes. Vets. Smog. Death. This was Raymond Chandler’s city, which resonated from deft and melancholy fits of his writer’s bow. Join Esotouric on an exploration of the city that shaped Chandler&#39;s fiction, and that in turn shaped his hard-boiled times, in a four hour tour of downtown, Hollywood and surrounding environs: Musso &amp; Frank, Union Station, the Hotel Van Nuys, Paramount Studio’s gates, and beyond. Through published work, private correspondence, screenplays and film adaptations, the tour traces Chandler’s search for meaning and his anti-hero Philip Marlowe’s struggle to not be pigeonholed or give anything less than all he has, which lead them both down the rabbit hole of isolation, depression, and drink.  <br /><br />
RAYMOND CHANDLER&#39;S BAY CITY (March 27) was crook town, run down, shabby town, gambling town. Chandler naturally gravitated to sin and debauch, so sleazy Santa Monica was a frequent stop for Philip Marlowe. This tour has it all, from doctors feelgood to second wives with pasts to crooked cops with a loathing for a mouthy PI. Chandler&#39;s canonization of sin, wealth and sunshine on L.A.&#39;s West Side fed the abiding myths of the American hard-boiled genre and play into the popular conceptions of the community. Focusing on Chandler&#39;s middle period – &quot;Farewell My Lovely,&quot; &quot;Lady in the Lake&quot; and a few short stories upon which these novels are built, &quot;Bay City Blues&quot; among them-- this four hour bus tour will explore Chandler&#39;s take on the Westside, the real life rackets and murders which gave Bay City its wild reputation, and the elements of the old community that have survived layer upon layer of gentrification.  <br /><br />
Get on either bus for a revealing time travel journey into the literary history of Los Angeles, and discover the places and people who inspired Raymond Chandler&#39;s timeless novels, screenplays and stories.<br /><br />
