She is the first American pianist invited to perform at the Franz Liszt Academy and Museum in Budapest. A native of the American Midwest, Walters earned a doctorate from Peabody Conservatory and has lived most of her adult life in the New York City area.

John Beckelman: Horizon Suite
<p>John Beckelman’s Horizon Suite is a group of six recently-completed three-dimensional landscapes. Using the expressive potential of clay and a variety of other materials, Beckelman’s work explores the transitional space where the sky meets the land or sea. The horizontal sweep of this space is mediated by intimate moments of surprising texture, shifting light, and fleeting color. Horizon Suite attempts to gently entice the viewer into the inner landscapes and interior spaces of our imagination and memory. Beckelman finds a curious intersection between the seemingly enduring and timeless character of earth and the fleeting yet wonderful impermanence of the world in which we live. John Beckelman's art has been shown in exhibitions throughout the country and he has been the recipient of numerous awards, commissions, and grants. He received his master of fine arts degree in ceramics and his master of science degree in ceramics from Illinois State University. Beckelman is the Robert O. Daniel Professor of Art, Emeritus at Coe College. He lives and works in Cedar Rapids.</p> 2019-10-19 16:00:00 -050010/19/1910:00 a.m.Cedar Rapids Museum of ArtCedar Rapids -

Open Air: Opening Reception with Dave Gordinier and Kristin Stoeffler
<p>Gilded Pear Gallery is pleased to present <em>Open Air</em>, a two-person exhibit of landscapes by Iowa natives: David Gordinier and Kristin Stoeffler.</p><p><br></p><p>This show brings together the work of artists who illustrate a particular style of moments in Midwest scenery. Both artists appear to have romantic or idealized renderings of these realistic vistas. The space between the sky and the earth is vast. Land reaches out to the endless horizon and the foliage seem to breathe the air that chase the clouds in that moment. Adventure and solace can be found in these paintings; the hunt for the cloud you could cut with a knife, the well-traveled path highlighted by the afternoon sun, or the colorful field within soft rolling terrain. The works themselves vary from the very large punchy style of Kristin’s and the mid-sized detailed serenity of David’s.</p><p><br></p><p>When talking about her work, Kristin mentions “My father-in-law put a bright yellow parasol on an old Oliver tractor and taught me how to rake hay, and I paint hay differently now.” She creates paintings that allude to surreal drama and heightened saturation. “The fields look different from the seat of a tractor. Rows look different after you’ve raked them yourself,” she explains. David approaches his subjects in a traditional manner, painting in a realistic style that concentrates on the way light defines an object or space. His landscape works are inspired by western vistas as well as secluded roads and wide-reaching fields of rural central Iowa. “If I live to be 120, I still won’t have time to paint all the things I want to paint.” David describes his process as “finding opulent things in the mundane.”</p><p><br></p><p>David Gordinier attended Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids and received his BFA from the University of Iowa in Iowa City. He has been in group exhibitions at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City and the Des Moines Art Center. His work is in the collections of Farm Bureau Financial Services and Iowa State Bank, among many others.</p><p><br></p><p>Kristin Stoeffler received her BA in Art from The University of Iowa, but that is only part of the education that influences her work. The rest she learned from the insight and patience of the people who live on the land in her landscapes. She has work in the Lil Drugstore collection in Cedar Rapids as well as several private collections in the Midwest.</p><p><br></p><p>Gilded Pear Gallery is located at 808 Third Avenue SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403.

Boland Dowdall Duo Plus One
<p><em>Boland Dowdall Plus One, </em>flutist<em> </em>Jan Boland, guitarist John Dowdall and pan flutist Rodney Garnett, will perform a concert of world music for flutes and guitar at Kirkwood Community College in room 384 Cedar Hall (Choir Room) at 6301 Kirkwood Blvd SW in Cedar Rapids, IA at 11:15 a.m. on Thursday October 31, 2019. The concert will feature music from Moldova and Peru where the pan flute, a series of varying length reed or wooden tubes activated by blowing down into the open holes, is a common and prominent instrument. Garnett learned to play the pan flute while studying aural music traditions and culture in Moldova, situated between Ukraine and Romania, on a Fullbright scholarship. Moldovan traditional music reminds western audiences of the pathos and joy of Jewish and Gypsy music traditions, and has a reputation for virtuosity that moves audiences to both dancing and to tears. Boland and Garnett will also play modern western and 19th-c. wooden flutes with music ranging from the baroque Scottish composer James Oswald to special arrangements for <em>Boland Dowdall Plus One</em> by Moldovan composer Igor Iachimciuc.</p><p><br></p><p>Boland, Dowdall & Garnett just returned from working on this program during an intensive 2-week chamber music residency in New Hampshire, where they first launched their collaboration with a weeklong residency in 2018. Garnett is professor emeritus at the University of Wyoming, and has worked extensively in orchestras, jazz and chamber music ensembles, folk music ensembles, and recording studios. </p><p><br></p> 2019-09-14 12:15:00 -0500

Art Exhibit: Open Air
<p>Gilded Pear Gallery is pleased to present <em>Open Air</em>, a two-person exhibit of landscapes by Iowa natives: David Gordinier and Kristin Stoeffler.</p><p><br></p><p>This show brings together the work of artists who illustrate a particular style of moments in Midwest scenery. Both artists appear to have romantic or idealized renderings of these realistic vistas. The space between the sky and the earth is vast. Land reaches out to the endless horizon and the foliage seem to breathe the air that chase the clouds in that moment. Adventure and solace can be found in these paintings; the hunt for the cloud you could cut with a knife, the well-traveled path highlighted by the afternoon sun, or the colorful field within soft rolling terrain. The works themselves vary from the very large punchy style of Kristin’s and the mid-sized detailed serenity of David’s.</p><p><br></p><p>When talking about her work, Kristin mentions “My father-in-law put a bright yellow parasol on an old Oliver tractor and taught me how to rake hay, and I paint hay differently now.” She creates paintings that allude to surreal drama and heightened saturation. “The fields look different from the seat of a tractor. Rows look different after you’ve raked them yourself,” she explains. David approaches his subjects in a traditional manner, painting in a realistic style that concentrates on the way light defines an object or space. His landscape works are inspired by western vistas as well as secluded roads and wide-reaching fields of rural central Iowa. “If I live to be 120, I still won’t have time to paint all the things I want to paint.” David describes his process as “finding opulent things in the mundane.”</p><p><br></p><p>David Gordinier attended Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids and received his BFA from the University of Iowa in Iowa City. He has been in group exhibitions at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City and the Des Moines Art Center.
