Ends & Odds
- A Claverack firefighter brought the above image to this site’s attention: a satellite view of the Mohawk and Hudson Valleys. (The Mohawk runs vertically, the Hudson horizontally, with Albany near the top center of the image about 1/3 of the way down.)
- Alan Chartock bids farewell to the glossy regional lifestyle magazine Berkshire Living, which is closing, and offers some thoughts on the state of the publishing industry at his blog.
- Hudson Democratic alderman nominee Tim Rodgers is rumored to be withdrawing from the 1st Ward race, and considering other options, with ward resident David Marston likely to enter it.
- Tortillaville, the popular tacqueria and gathering spot in Hudson’s 300 block will be reopening for the season on Memorial Day weekend.
- Photographer Peter Donohoe is exhibiting his photographs of barns and farmsteads at the new Vanderbilt House in Philmont, and holding a reception on Thursday the 26th from 4–6 pm.
- In anticipation of their upcoming Media issue, the Columbia County quarterly Our Town held an afternoon-long photoshoot last Sunday with Johannes Courtens and area media figures (media defined very broadly here) from author Bill Kennedy to comic Tom Davis. The issue is being guest edited by former Esquire scribe and noted songwriter Jake Brackman; Harper’s/GQ writer Dave Gargill is tackling the state of NYC publishing; and Yours Truly will have a long piece about the state of local media.

Cream soda and Dots
... are what Ricky Aldrich asked to be served at the reception for Rubi Rose’s project of photos of Rokeby’s abiding “peasant and patroon”—this Saturday from 3-5 pm at Bard’s Woods Gallery. The full invitation can be downloaded here as a PDF. (Among many other things, Ricky provided a number of pieces of rusty farm machinery to Laetitia Hussain’s Aurum show.)

Saturday Art: Edward Avedisian
“His recent landscapes evoke the early modernist landscape traditions (Fauvism, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Munch), but with a contemporary sense of scale, surface and off-handedness. The best is a winter scene in which two bare trees cast lavender shadows on the side of a light turquoise garage, giving the thick semi-abstract forms a sudden sense of worldly space.” —Roberta Smith, The New York Times (review, 2003)
