SIX DAYS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD
EPPRIDGE’S TIMELESS LOOK AT THE FAB FOUR by Brian Goslow Danbury, Connecticut - It was, inarguably, one of those moments in which everything changed. On February 9, 1964, The Beatles played on the Ed Sullivan Show for the first time, setting Beatlemania into full gear and sparking a cultural shift that still echoes today. Photojournalist Bill Eppridge documented the Fab Four’s first tour of the United States for Life magazine, taking “Three thousand images on 90 rolls of film” — only four of which ended up being printed in the publication at the time. “Bill was in the Life magazine offices early on the day that the Beatles were scheduled to arrive at JFK Airport,” said Eppridge’s wife, Adrienne Aurichio. “The director of photography, Dick Pollard, saw Bill and asked him if he wanted to shoot their arrival. It was not planned as a six-day assignment. Bill turned it into … [Read more...] about SIX DAYS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD
Boston Ballet presents Third Symphony of Gustav Mahler at the Boston Opera House
By James Foritano Boston, Mass. - The “Third Symphony of Gustav Mahler,” choreographed by the renowned John Neumeier and performed on Thursday, October 22, by the Boston Ballet on the stage of the Boston Opera House, brought the audience repeatedly to their feet with cheering, clapping and foreign-sounding cries of approval. I, on the other hand didn’t award my approval until what looked to me like an overcrowded stage gave way gradually, mercifully to fewer dancers with more space. My parsimony, approval wise, was probably more a matter of personal esthetics, than expert judgment. I’ve seen traffic cops respond to an impossible glut of traffic at rush hour with absolutely balletic virtuosity, urging on and calming heated horsepower with memorable command. But is it art, or traffic control? At least a million dancers, with helicoptering arms and … [Read more...] about Boston Ballet presents Third Symphony of Gustav Mahler at the Boston Opera House

Wanderlust: Alternative Burlington, Vermont
By Puloma Ghosh Burlington, VT – Burlington, one of the cultural hubs of Vermont, doesn’t fall short in its share of art galleries. However, throughout the town there are many nontraditional spaces for art worth exploring during a visit or a casual weekend outing. Even in the midst of a daily routine, art is around you. One of these spaces is The Men’s Room, located in downtown Burlington on 106 Main Street. The salon has simple décor, with a classic color palette of black, white and red throughout. While dipping in for a routine haircut, one is actually walking into a gallery hidden within its walls. The current exhibit is black and white photography by Paul Hagar. The exhibit, called “On the Street and Across the Lake,” fits seamlessly into the space. Hagar’s photographs offer alternate views of the area, taken from nontraditional angles and distances. The soft-focused, … [Read more...] about Wanderlust: Alternative Burlington, Vermont
