SUMMARY:Cuban Documentary "Rodando en La Habana: Bicycle Stories" San Francisco Premiere with Filmmaker Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Jennifer Ruth Hosek and Jaime Santos Menéndez\, Rodando en La Habana: Bicycle Stories tells of bicycling and community in Havana today\, 20 years after the Special Period\, when over 1 million Chinese bicycles were imported to Cuba to aid survival on an island suddenly without Soviet petroleum. The independent documentary first premiered to sold-out audiences and intensive media interest at the 2015 Havana Film Festival. For its San Francisco debut\, co-filmmaker Jennifer Ruth Hosek joins the Red Poppy Art House for an evening of film screenings\, discussion and music. \nForever (1994)\, a documentary by Cuban filmmaker Luis Orlando Deulofeu\, offers a surprisingly tongue-in-cheek look at the trials and benefits of the bicycle during the most difficult part of the Special Period when\, left without Soviet petrol\, the country imported over one million Chinese bicycles. Its aesthetics recall the madcap comedy The Adventures of Juan Quin Quin and Espinosa’s manifesto for imperfect cinema that belie its production under the auspices of FAR\, the Cuban military.\n \nProgram\n6:45-7:05pm: Screening of Forever\n7:10-7:40pm: Screening of Rodando en la Habana: Bicycle Stories\n7:40-8:20pm: Q&A with Filmmaker Jennifer Ruth Hosek\n8:20-10:00pm: Music & discussion\n \nAbout the Filmmakers\nAssociate Director Jennifer Ruth Hosek works in Cultural Studies and Film with a focus on Cuba\, Europe and Germany. An Associate Professor at Queen’s University in Ontario\, Canada\, she took her PhD at Berkeley and was Postdoctoral Fellow in the Humanities at Stanford. She has written numerous articles as well as a book titled Sun\, Sex and Socialism: Cuba in the German Imaginary (2012). She is the founder of LinguaeLive.ca\, a free\, academic platform that allows students learning new languages to connect with peers across the globe. \nJaime Santos Menéndez graduated with a degree in Film Direction in 2014 from the Cuban film school FAMCA. Currently\, he works at the Cuban Television Studios as an animator specializing in stop motion as well as assisting in a variety of productions. In addition to his involvement in projects for youth and community uplift\, Jaime is active in improvisational theatre including Teatro del Encuentro and Playback Theatre. His films include Familia (2014)\, Idóneo (2013) and Campos de Fresas (2012).

SUMMARY:June 4th STOOP: Mission Stoop Fest
DESCRIPTION:Mission Stoop Fest – “A neighborhood festival initiative to transform resident stoops into sites of oral history and performance” \nYes\, we changed the name! Formally called PORCH\, we discovered there was another Porchfest happening in the Mission\, so as to avoid confusion\, we are now Mission Stoop Fest (or STOOP for short). \nSTOOP is a civil society arts experiment that transpires on the front stoops of local residences where traditional and contemporary artists perform and where local residents share stories and histories. The front stoop represents a literal threshold between the public and private spheres and is a historic site of spontaneous community interaction and exchange. Before arriving to urban centers\, it was traditionally the porches of smaller communities where neighbor interaction took place. Moving from the rural to the urban\, the porch was transformed into the stoop. This unique public-private space has become increasingly significant and symbolic in our neighborhoods that are undergoing the rapid processes of gentrification\, such that results in a breakdown of social fabric and the loss of communal/neighborhood memory. STOOP represents our heart-set invitation into a space of encounter – where past meets present\, where the public meets the private\, and where different communities intersect to discover the threads that link us together. \nTo initiate this project\, the Red Poppy Art House\, with support from the California Arts Council\, is playing the role of catalyst\, to help organize five sites to launch STOOP this June. Our goal is for STOOP to occur during the day on the same bi-monthly dates as a sister-project\, the Mission Arts & Performance Project (MAPP). Similar to the MAPP festival\, STOOP will provide a program and a map of multiple neighborhood stoops where performance and storytelling will unfold simultaneously. We hope that this initiative will inspire more residents to take part and choose to make their stoop a site for cultural and community exchange in months to come. \n*Join us at 6PM for a Mission Stoop Fest after party with Afro-Cuban rumba by Los Rumberos de Cali. Stick around for more performances throughout the evening for the Mission Arts & Performance Project! \n\nLOCATIONS \nSTOOP 1: Pigeon Palace – 2840-2848 Folsom @ 24th/25th St\nCurators: Adriana Camarena\, Keith Hennessy\, Chris Carlsson\nSTOOP 2: Red Poppy Art House – 2698 Folsom @ 23rd St (*Program pick-up)\nCurators: Susana Aragon\, Indira Urrutia\nSTOOP 3: Casa de los Sentidos – 2649 Folsom @ 23rd St\nCurators: La Bohemia/Carlos Disdier\, Manuel Trujillo\nSTOOP 4: Fingersnaps Street Salon – 2416 Folsom Street @ 20th\nCurators: Lamont Bransford-Young & Co\nSTOOP 5: The Moving Stoop\nPerformance procession by Mission youth dance ensemble Moving Beyond Productions\n6PM STOOP AFTER PARTY: Red Poppy Art House – 2698 Folsom @ 23rd St\nMission Stoop Fest After Party with Afro-Cuban rumba by Los Rumberos de Cali \n\nPROGRAMS \nSTOOP # 1: “The Pigeon Palace Post-Up!”\n2840-2848 Folsom St between 24th & 25th\nCurators: Keith Hennessey\, Chris Carlsson\, and Adriana Camarena\nPrintmaking by The Poster Syndicate (Jos Sances and others)\nBreadmaking by Lisa Ruth Elliot\nMerchandising by Carlos Palencia “Posted” \n2:00PM: Social Gathering at the Stoop\n2:20PM: The Welcome\n2:30PM: Chris Carlsson – 150 years ago on Folsom Street (History-telling)\n2:35PM: Ivy McClelland & Morgan (Acoustic Songs)\n2:45PM: Oscar Salinas- Varrio Precita Park (Neighborhood Story)\n3:00PM: Keith Hennessy (Spoken Word)\n3:10PM: Yayne Abeba (Comedy)\n3:20PM: Chris Carlsson (History-telling)\n3:30PM: Nancy Pili – Thugz Mansion (Neighborhood Story)\n3:45PM: Porch interlude\n3:55PM: Pearl Ubungen (Dance)\n4:05PM: Rebecca Solnit (Reading)\n4:20PM: Anthony Theodore (Songs)\n4:30PM: Adriana Camarena\n4:45PM: Chris Carlsson – 50 years ago (History-telling)\n4:50PM: Closing\n \nSTOOP #2: “Memory and Peace” \nRed Poppy Art House\, 2698 Folsom St @ 23rd\nCurators: Susana Aragón & Indira Urrutia \n2:00PM Opening the stoop with Rebecca Cervantes group\nOngoing projects 2-5\nElla Noe (painter – live drawing)\nEmbroidery for peace and justice\nPoetry memories of a neighborhood\n2:30PM: Maria José Montijo (Vocals & Harp)\n2:55PM: Bianca Catalán (Stories)\n3:15PM: Anais Azul (Poetry & Music Improvisation)\n3:30PM: San Francisco Youth Theater – Hamlet\nBianca Catalán\, Homero Rosas\n3:50PM: Rennea Couttenye (Singer)\n4:10PM: Ximena Sosa (Artist/Poet)\n4:30PM: Diana Gameros & Luis Fernando Gameros (Folk\, Pop\, Bossa Nova\, and Stories from North and South of the Border)\n \nSTOOP #3: “La Casa de los Sentidos”\n2649 Folsom St @ 23rd\nCurators: Carlos Disdier & Manuel Trujillo \n2:00PM: Intro\n2:15PM: Dueto Arte- Cancionero Campirano\n2:40PM: Francisco Hereera (Singer/Songwriter)\n3:00PM: Carlos Baron (Storytelling)\n3:20PM: Community Sharing\n3:30PM: Son Jarocho\n3:45PM: Fandango\n4:00PM: Hena “Rodomira” Moreno (Los Cuentos de la Abuela)\n4:15PM: Community Sharing\n4:30PM: María José Montijo (Singer/Songwriter)\n4:50PM: Closing\n \nSTOOP #4: Fingersnaps Street Salon \n2416 Folsom St @ 20th\nCurators: Lamont Bransford-Young & Co \n2:00pm-2:20PM: Lamont DJ Set/Intro\n2:30pm-2:50PM: Aimee Amparo\n3:00pm-3:10PM: Rebecca Weisser Cervantes\n3:15pm-3:35PM: Claudio Lantome\n3:45pm-4:05PM: Colin O’Leary\n4:15pm-4:35PM: Victor Mendoza\n4:40pm-5:00PM: Erika Oba \nFingersnaps Mission Stoop Fest celebrates the culture and family legacy of the Mendoza family.

SUMMARY:Cellista & the Juxtapositions Chamber Ensemble Present: Olivier Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time
DESCRIPTION:For an evening of immersive chamber music with elements of theater and visual art\, Cellista & the Juxtapositions Chamber Ensemble bring to the Red Poppy a presentation of Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time. \nThe Juxtapositions Chamber Ensemble is an innovative rotating cast of musicians headed and organized by Cellista (Freya Seeburger). The ensemble was formed with the idea of creating a musical entity that reflected the vast diversity of the San Francisco Bay Area. With their ability to perform an array of genres\, members of the ensemble fall outside the box of traditional classical confines while cultivating a new audience of music lovers with their devotion to creating and performing in inclusive and accessible environments. \nFeaturing:\nCellista (Freya Seeburger) – cello\nJames Pykto – clarinet\nMia Bella D’Augelli – violin\nNaomi Stine – piano\n \nCellista is the moniker of cellist and producer Freya Seeburger. She has recorded and performed with independent rock\, hip- hop\, and classical groups including Van Dyke Parks\, the Awesöme Orchestra Collective\, Grammy-nominated artist Tanya Donelly\, and The Coup (as a member of Classical Revolution). Cellista’s penchant for performing music in unconventional spaces\, paired with her devotion to collaborating with artists across mediums\, has led her to create distinct performances that incorporate elements of classical music\, improvisation\, and visual art. \nMojo DeVille is an independent curator and choreographer based out of Oakland\, CA. For over a decade\, she has been entertaining audiences with an electric combination of dance\, mixed media\, and sideshow-inspired performance art. A collaborative creature\, she brings her eclectic style to each event she does\, working at everything from corporate presentations\, cabarets\, trade shows and festivals to black tie weddings and weekend retreats.\n \nFollow Cellista on Facebook. \n“Messiaen’s ‘Quartet for the End of Time’ has always moved me. The composer’s concepts of musical structure have influenced my own music for many years. It was with a delightful surprise to hear of Freya Seeburger performing the piece and an amazing example of synchronicity to be invited to accompany the performance with my artwork. The Quartet is not just an admired masterpiece to me\, it is my favorite string quartet in classical repertoire\, one that consistently brings me to tears….”\n– Barron Storey in Juxtapoz Magazine on the dual exhibition shared with Cellista. \n\nAdmission: $15-20. Doors at 7:00pm. Show at 7:30pm. All ages welcome. \nTickets will not be sold in advance for this event.

SUMMARY:[DOUBLE BILL] Planes on Paper and Ghost Town Jenny: Folk & Western-Style Soundscapes
DESCRIPTION:From dual vocals to ambient soundscapes\, Planes on Paper join Ghost Town Jenny for an evening of cinematic folk with a dark side of country and soul. \nThrough the vocal synergy of Navid Eliot and Jen Borst\, the two core members of Planes on Paper\, a special kind of musical beauty emerges. The Washington-based folk group combines Navid and Jen’s intricate vocal harmonies with instrumental landscapes of acoustic and pedal steel guitars\, percussion\, bass\, drums\, and horns. Their latest EP\, The Ruins\, was released in January 2015 to rave reviews and a great deal of attention throughout the Pacific Northwest. \nGhost Town Jenny began as the solo project of singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kim Kylland. Currently residing in Northern California\, Kylland grew up splitting time between California and Norway\, eventually spending her formative years as a songwriter and performer in Dublin\, Ireland and later Reykjavik\, Iceland. Ghost Town Jenny’s music has drawn comparisons to the likes of Florence + The Machine\, Bjork\, June Carter Cash and Andrew Bird\, though the group cultivates their own sound through a combination of Kim’s hauntingly powerful voice\, brooding soundscapes and remarkable string arrangements. Ghost Town Jenny is currently working on the first full-length effort to be released in 2016.

Formed by Claudio Vega\, Esther Cruz and Tacho Utrera\, the collective interlinks son jarocho and its cultural context with other traditional Latin American rhythms. Son Jarocho\, a musical genre from Veracruz\, Mexico\, is a melodic combination of Spanish\, African and indigenous cultures. A beautiful integration of la jarana\, requinto\, tarima and versada\, Sonando Sur invites you to enjoy the magical sound of Veracruz fandango. \nFeaturing:\nClaudio Naranjos Vega – jarana\, requinto\nEsther Cruz Maranto – zapateado\nTacho Utrera – jarana\, requinto \nClaudio Vega began his musical career in the group The Vega Project\, the new generation of the Vega family (Los Vega).
