On the first Saturday of every even month of the year\, the MAPP transforms ordinary spaces\, such as private garages\, gardens\, living rooms\, studios\, street corners\, and small businesses into pop-up performance and exhibition sites for a day/night of intimate-scale artistic and cultural exchange among a kaleidoscope of individuals and communities.  Due to COVID-19 we have temporarily changed this dynamic program from an onsite to an online series. Thanks to the mastery and innovation of the presenting artists and curatorial vision we are pleased that the kaleidoscope of cultural exchange continues to be an incredibly enriching experience for the presenter and the viewer. We look forward to the days that we can safely present at our neighborhood venue and we are grateful for everyone’s ingenuity in making the online presentations meaningful and unique experiences.   \nThis program is funded by California Arts Council Impact Project Grant and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Relief Fund and SF Art Reopening Fund.  \nWe will continue our work in presenting unique artistry to the communities that we serve. \nRED POPPY MAPP TEAM: \nCurator | Artistic Director | Managing director: Dina Zarif  \nTech support: Bob San \nPR and Digital Marketing: Jennie D.

It captures the suffering\, nostalgia\, intensity and fire of the Argentine people.  \nIn this performance\, Pablo will perform a part of Horacio Salgán piano transcriptions\, which is the result of almost two years of decoding this rare recording into a studio album and a music book with all the scores and research notes of the project. The repertoire will feature traditional tango and some of the original work by the Maestro. \nABOUT THE ARTIST: \nPablo Estigarribia is a Latin Grammy nominee and world-renowned tango pianist\, arranger and composer. Like many artists of this genre\, he began his training as a classical musician and soon branched out into the world of tango. He studied at the National Conservatory in Buenos Aires\, where he won the Bienal Juvenil National Competition for Young Artists. After graduating\, he spent several years on the frenzied performance circuit in Argentina\, collaborating with the Congress Chamber Orchestra\, the National Radio Orchestra\, and the Chaco Symphony\, among many others. Seeking to broaden his musical horizons beyond the classical realm\, Estigarribia took a brief detour through jazz and then discovered tango in 2005. He quickly won the Orquesta Escuela de Tango scholarship and performed with this superb ensemble under the direction of Maestro Emilio Balcarce. Estigarribia continued working with Balcarce shortly thereafter when he first toured Europe. \nEstigarribia rapidly established himself as a nuanced and masterful tango performer in Germany\, France\, Belgium\, Japan\, Russia\, Finland\, Canada\, the United States and Cuba. He has been featured in over a thousand concerts\, joining Argentine tango legends like Maria Graña\, Victor Lavallén\, Leopoldo Federico\, Nestor Marconi\, Horacio Cabarcos\, Emilio Balcarce and many others. Estigarribia’s album Tangos Para Piano (EPSA) won the prestigious 2015 Gardel Prize for Best Tango Album by a New Artist. After receiving wide acclaim for this album\, he earned coveted recognition from the Argentine tango industry as an expert in the art of tango music. He is a recipient of the Argentine Tango Society’s Medal of Honor for his educational forays at the Stowe Tango Music Festival (Vermont\, USA) in multiple years. Estigarribia’s ascendancy brought him to Japan in 2016 where he was lauded in the Tokyo press following his performances. He then became sought after in the United States\, where he played in New York’s famous Blue Note Jazz Club. He has made performance and interview appearances on NBC\, Univision\, Telemundo\, and The Huffington Post. Estigarribia splits his time between his native Buenos Aires\, Argentina\, and New York City. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nIstanbul Connection \nOld school Balkan Latin folk music in a funky Bay Area context \nFeaturing: \nKata Miletich – vocals\nRaul Vargas – vocals and cajon \nHaluk Kelecioglu – vocals\, oud and violin\nGreg Jenkins – vocals\, clarinet and saxophone\nDanny Cao – trumpet\nJoaquin Zamudio – bass\nBob San – guitars\nMelissa Cruz – drums and flamenco dance \n  \nABOUT THE PROJECT: \nIstanbul Connection is a Bay Area musical collective formed in 2015 when 13 members of the hottest Balkan and Latin bands were gravitationally pulled to visit the city of Istanbul. With a mind towards cross-cultural connection and sonic expansion\, these die-hards flew 7\,000 miles to represent a piece of the Bay Area music scene. In the process\, they have cemented themselves as a supergroup of groove and since their epic beginnings\, the band has performed sold-out-show after sold-out-show. They continue to draw their inspiration from the Turkish Maqam\, Flamenco\, Rumba\, Balkan\, and Cumbia they are so deeply rooted in. \n  \nCURRENT EXHIBITION: Paintings & Tarot in Pandemic and Revolution by  Adrian Arias\n  \nPaintings in Pandemic and Revolution | Adrian Arias\nThe current exhibition on view in walls of The Red Poppy Art House \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nARTIST STATEMENT \nAdrián believes that poetry is in constant motion\, and that feeds on each discipline to continue among us. Sometimes it is a photograph of a feather lying on the shore\, sometimes a book-object that seems to tell us the future\, sometimes the body moving slowly between blue lights to go dancing with paper and umbrellas\, without rain. The absurd\, the light\, the sensual\, the shadow\, the dreams\, are often elements in the daily life of Adrian\, who in addition to declaring himself a Poet in motion\, is an art teacher and a cultural organizer of events. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n“During 2020 Adrian returned to an old style of painting that he used in Lima\, Peru in the 80s\, one that was baptized as” Virus Style “\, because it is based on painting and spontaneous writing\, which grows rapidly with the motivation of what we hear or see around us. \nThese works are the result of collaborations and virtual conversations with friends from different parts of the world. Adrian was connected with poets and musicians from Argentina\, Mexico\, Nicaragua\, Peru\, and various states of the USA\, creating several of the pieces in this exhibition live\, online. In addition\, Adrian spent some time creating his “Monsters of the Day”\, showing his feelings about the pandemic\, which are also part of this exhibition. \n  \nTarot in Pandemic and Revolution | Adrian Arias\n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nTarot in Pandemic and Revolution\, inspired by Adrian Arias’ lucid dream of a fortune teller and cards embellished with images of viruses\, masks\, Black Lives Matter\, marches\, and protests\, is a unique 81-card Tarot deck. It is accompanied by an exquisite book of poetry\, created by 67 internationally-recognized artists and poets (24 visual artists\, 43 poets) with deep ties to the San Francisco Bay Area\, who span three generations. These award-winning poet laureates\, novelists\, authors\, muralists\, painters\, graphic artists\, performance artists\, composers\, musicians\, and dancers are each committed to social\, environmental\, food\, public health\, and climate justice\, and have used their powerful talents to create tarot images and poems in response to the critical times we are living in. This deck is a bold expression of hope\, resilience\, resistance\, and the courage to continue forging a path to justice and love. \nPresented in partnership with Red Poppy Art House\, Nomadic Press\, and Baldocchi Projects & Collaborations. Tarot in Pandemic and Revolution (81-CARD DECK) is available here for purchase.  \n  \nABOUT THE ARTIST\nAdrian Arian is a poet\, visual artist\, performer\, art teacher\, and South American cultural activist based in the Bay Area for two decades.
