East Village Riddle Raffle JUNE 4 – JUNE 11

Answer: Beef it up!

Artists’ comment by John Sunderland.
There’s something about the way that cattle seem to look at the world, with complete complacency and acceptance. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see
a cow drifting by, chewing the cud, suspended irrationally in the sky, as though it was the most normal way for a cow to get about.
The thing about surreal illustrations is that they have to be well executed, this image is not quite there. I would like to try it again as a painting and take more time over it. I have alway had trouble with cows!

Photography has been a hobby for as long as Janine Dupree can remember and for the most part is entirely self-taught. She credits her ability to learn the craft to her father, who always challenged her to look at the world from a slightly different perspective.

In addition to taking photos whenever she can, Janine works full time as a corporate event manager, organizing conferences and meetings throughout the United States. Although she has stated that she will always be a Philadelphian at heart, she currently claims New York City as her home.

Art Life Salon East Village

Artist of the Month for MAY

In May, Artist Anneli Curnock, Will be showing a small selection of her work at Life Cafe in the East Village.

Born in Painesville OH. Ani moved to New York in 2004 to attend the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Although she has been somewhat of an artist since she can remember, she began to seriously paint in 2007. Her Art work has been shown at Twist Hair Salon in Orlando Florida, The Brooklyn Tea Lounge, The Brooklyn Bike Shop, MUSE Skate Shop in New London Conneticut, The Dumbo Arts Center. and most recently at Imhotepstudio and Sucre Jazz Cafe in Bedstuy.

RECENT NAKED MUSIC @ EAST VILLAGE

Mary Martin

Mary and her ukulele, hails all the way from Provincetown, Cape Cod, Mass, where she appears regularly at the Coffee House sessions at The Mews Restaurant.
Her soft melodious voice, the twinkle in her eye and her humorous lyrics had the audience silent and riveted.
Then she had them to join in with an audience participation song written originally for kids, “Where have all the Beluga Whales gone?”
Fortunately for everyone, the song ended when we got down to where have all the “Bladder Flies” gone!

Kevin Brady

Kevin Brady

In Kevin’s’ words.
“I am an old new wave musician who lives above Life Cafe in the East Village.” Kevin brought the trash out and the house down with his songs “from when I used to play out more”; whilst his skit version of ‘Brown Eyed Girl” reminds the reviewer it would indeed be possible to die of an ear-worm, you know when you get a tune stuck in your head. Thanks. Kevin don’t stay upstairs, come down and play out with us more often!

Glenda Pezula and David Rooklin

In Davids’ words.
We play Bossa Nova, classic Brazilian Jazz, written in the 1950’s, which feature deep melodies and rhythmic guitar.
Glenda is a Cuban born singer and we learned this style together while living in Miami. We strive to carry on the profound legacy of this brilliant and heart-breaking music.
