SUMMARY:Flash Show: What We Leave Behind | Andrew Nemr
DESCRIPTION:FIRST FRIDAY OPENING RECEPTION\nFriday\, June 3rd  |  5:30pm – 8:30pm \nOPEN HOURS\nSaturday & Sunday\, June 4th & 5th  |  11:00am – 2:00pm \nCLOSING RECEPTION & ARTIST TALK\nSunday\, June 5th  |  2:00pm \nMany from our Surel’s Place community will remember tap dancer Andrew Nemr‘s residency in 2015 and his performance of Tap Dance: A Love Story at Boise Contemporary Theater in September of that year. But did you know that Andrew also has formal training in the visual arts? This flash show explores the relationship of choice and impact through tap dance\, visual\, sound\, and digital art. This show deconstructs\, and focuses on the many often unseen artifacts of an improvisational tap dance performance. Mr. Nemr actually uses his tap shoes as his tool for creating this visual art and by literally preserving what is left behind from his dancing. The work poses the question\, “What unseen impact do our choices have?” \nDESCRIPTION\nWhat We Leave Behind (WWLB) explores the relationship of choice and impact through tap dance\, visual\, sound\, and digital art. By deconstructing and focusing on the many often unseen artifacts of an improvisational tap dance performance\, What We Leave Behind poses the question\, “What unseen impact do our own choices have?” This\, of course\, brings other important questions to light\, such as\, “How can we see all our choices?” “How do we think about impact?” and more existentially “Can we really know what is good?” These questions speak to the formative relationship between ourselves\, our choices\, our impact\, and the potential for individual\, communal\, and social change. Developed in the inaugural InBreak Residency by Lebanese American tap dancer Andrew Nemr\, What We Leave Behind explores the experience of improvisational tap dancing\, and frameworks of oral traditions and spiritual formation\, to imagine a new way forward towards change for the good. \nAndrew Nemr\nARTIST STATEMENTMy work has always come to life at the intersections. Notably\, Tap Dance itself functions at the intersections of sound\, movement\, and personality. With formal training in the visual arts (School of Visual Arts\, 2001) and apprenticed in tap dance\, my work has explored storytelling\, digital art (including virtual reality)\, physical art\, and music. Fueling every exploration is an ongoing journey through the ways of oral tradition and spiritual formation as they interact with the questions of life. The questions have varied. At different times they may be more reflective (What is happening right now?)\, imaginative (What could be?)\, or existential (What is real?). Regardless\, I have found the vast variety of mediums to be amazing vehicles through which to share my journey of exploration and embody these important questions. \n\n\n\nBIOGRAPHYSince his residency 7 years ago\, Andrew has been back to perform CELLOSONG in 2018\, and recently danced an interpretation of Lalin composed by Nathalie Joachim for “Ourself Behind Ourself\, Concealed.” He now lives in Boise and uses it as his home base. \n\n\n\nMentored by Gregory Hines\, Andrew Nemr is an international artist\, teacher\, and speaker. His work has spanned the dance\, theatre\, music\, and visual arts worlds\, exploring art as a vehicle for storytelling and community building. Described as “A masterly tapper” by the New York Times\, Andrew has played with Grammy Award winning musicians across multiple genres\, and co-founded the Tap Legacy™ Foundation\, Inc. (along with Hines). Andrew’s work has been recognized with numerous awards including a TED Fellowship\, grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, and residencies with Google/TiltBrush and TED. Andrew is recorded on the Grammy nominated recording Itsbynne Reel by Dave Eggar\, the DVD Documentary and companion album Tuesdays at Mona’s by Mona’s Hot Four\, and narrates the DanceTime Publications DVD\, Tap Dance History: From Vaudeville to Film. He is the topic of the documentary short film Identity: The Andrew Nemr Story\, and hosts the weekly podcast\, Talking Notes. \n\n\n\nDuring Nemr's residency\, he was interviewed by Frankie Barnhill on NPR.

SUMMARY:Green Box Installation: The Only Thing We Have Left to Fear | Ted Apel
DESCRIPTION:Open Hours:\nSaturday\, December 11th  |  10:00am – 12:00pm\nSaturday\, December 18th  |  10:00am – 12:00pm\nClosing:\nSaturday\, December 18th  5:30pm – 7:30pm \nsound installation\nmotion lamp\, radio\, light\, sound \nIn 1933 President Franklin D. Roosevelt began to broadcast a series of radio addresses on policy directly to the American people. These addresses became known as “fireside chats” and continued throughout the three terms of his presidency. In this installation\, a radio plays a mixture of sounds from a forest fire and a fireside chat that has been altered to accentuate only the noisy parts of the speech. Here the message is obscured and reinterpreted in layers of noise. \nDuring the 1930s\, motion lamps were commonly displayed on top or near home radios as a visual accompaniment while listening to the radio. Motion lamps use the heat generated by a light bulb to turn a patterned cylinder of paper. The image appears to move due to the changing light from the moving cylinder. In this piece\, the image is an animated forest fire produced by the “Scene-in-Motion Corporation” in 1931.

SUMMARY:Green Box Installation: Trouble in the Water | Dyan Ferren
DESCRIPTION:May – June | OPEN HOURS:\nSaturday\, June 12th | 10:00am – 12:00pm\nSaturday\, June 19th | 10:00am – 12:00pm\nSaturday\, June 26th | 10:00am – 12:00pm\nat: the Green Box – now located on 34th Street next to the Urban Gallery\n\nARTIST STATEMENT\nIn April\, I participated in the Idaho Rivers United cleanup on the section of the Boise River that flows through the Live-Work-Create District here in Garden City. I create art out of trash collected on beaches and in the water to help educate the public about this monumental ‘trouble’ in our oceans\, rivers\, and lakes\, worldwide. Each year\, 8 million metric tons of plastics enter our oceans (Ocean Conservancy) and it is estimated that 150 million metric tons are currently circulating in the ocean gyres.\n\nIn the Green Box\, I display some of the trash taken from the river along with more of my marine art set in a ‘gyre’ of real beach trash (including fishing floats and nets.)\n\nABOUT THE ARTIST\nDyan Ferren is a self-taught artist who creates hangable assemblage sculpture from natural and manmade discarded materials and found objects. Originally from New Jersey\, she moved to coastal Alaska in 1985 and credits the wild and beautiful surroundings in that state for generating her passion to create 3D work for the following three decades until moving to Idaho in 2015. It is important to Ms. Ferren to create art that serves as a handsome visual messenger to encourage people to reduce\, reuse\, and recycle materials to minimize the impact on the environment and improve the health of our planet. In addition\, she also conducts workshops and exhibits teaching about recycling and the problem of pollution in our waterways and oceans around the world.
