celebrates women in all aspects of arts
By KATE WIEDEMAN
Communications intern, Gibbes Museum of Art
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
OCT.
29, 2009 -- The Gibbes Museum of Art will celebrate the many contributions
of women in art by hosting a three-part lecture series the first
three Wednesdays evenings in November.
Wiedeman
|
The
series will explore women in a variety of roles, including artist,
model, collector and philanthropist.
A
wine and cheese reception hosted by Duvall Catering and Event Design
will follow each lecture, and a book signing will occur on two of
the three evenings at the museum. Women in Art is being offered
in partnership with the Center for Women.
The
series will kick off on Nov. 4 at 6 p.m. with a lecture by Warren
Adelson, president of Adelson Galleries, and Deborah Davis, author
of "Strapless: John Singer Sargent and the Fall of Madame X."
The lecture, titled "Sargent's Women," will explore the
artist's relationships with women, including family members, friends,
models and the infamous Madame X. Following the lecture, Davis will
be available to sign copies of her book. The evening is presented
in association with the Charleston Fine Art Dealers' Association
and its Charleston Fine Art Annual.
Angela
Mack, executive director of the Gibbes Museum of Art, will host
part two of the lecture series on Nov. 11 at 6 p.m. Her lecture,
"Women of the Gibbes," will offer an insider's look at
the female artists, collectors and philanthropists who have shaped
the Gibbes Museum of Art. The evening will include an opportunity
to view rarely exhibited works from the museum's collection.
 |
The
final lecture, "Daufuskie Island" on Nov. 18 at 6 p.m.,
will be led by photographer Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe. Moutoussamy-Ashe
will share stories about her career and discuss her photographic
work that documents life on Daufuskie Island. Moutoussamy-Ashe's
fascination with the island began in the 1970s during visits to
the Lowcountry with her husband, tennis legend Arthur Ashe. Her
interest resulted in a compelling group of photographs featuring
intimate portraits of island residents. Following the lecture, Moutoussamy-Ashe
will be available to sign copies of her book, "Daufuskie Island:
Photographs by Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe." Her photographs currently
are exhibited in the rotunda of the Gibbes and will be on view through
Jan. 10.
Tickets
for individual lectures are $10 for Gibbes and/or Center for Women
members, and $20 for nonmembers. For a series of three lectures,
tickets will be on sale for a discounted member price of $25 and
nonmember price of $55. Tickets can be purchased
online, by calling 722-2706, ext. 18, or at the Gibbes Museum
Store at 135 Meeting St.
The
Gibbes Museum of Art welcomes all to join us this November in celebrating
the accomplishments and contributions of extraordinary women in
art.
CURRENTS
Celebrating
a year of good news, fun and food for thought
By
ANN THRASH, editor
CharlestonCurrents.com
OCT.
29, 2009 -- Today's edition of Charleston Currents marks a milestone
for us: It completes our first full year of publication. We're grateful
for the enthusiastic response and support we've gotten from readers,
underwriters and the community as a whole - but even more than that,
we're encouraged by it. The idea of "Good news, for a change"
- kind of an unofficial motto for us - seems to resonate with you
as much as it did with Publisher Andy Brack and me, and that's good
news indeed.

If
you've liked what you've read and seen in Charleston Currents over
the past year, take just a minute and forward today's issue to a
friend, colleague or family member who would enjoy the thoughtful
commentary we try to offer and would appreciate the chance to learn
about all the interesting, community-oriented work being done in
Charleston that doesn't get the attention it deserves from any other
source.
After
98 "Today's Focus" articles, lists and "History Spotlights,"
and countless more Good News items and calendars entries, it's hard
to choose a few standouts from the past year, but here are my "Most"
and "Best" superlatives.
Most
Long-Distance Column: Mount Pleasant's Sarah Fitch contributed
a Today's
Focus from Slovakia, where she was living and working as part
of a church mission program. We liked hearing how she described
her hometown to Slovakians, and how they managed to find common
ground.
Hits-Closest-to-Home
Column: There were multiple candidates here, but we were particularly
moved by Jermaine
Husser's description of the people he sees and the stories he
hears at the Lowcountry Food Bank. As the holidays approach again
and many of our neighbors continue to struggle, this article from
Husser, the food bank's executive director, is worth another read.
Column
That Made Us Feel Not So Bad About Getting Older: Kellee McGahey,
chairperson for the Charleston Young Professionals group, offered
some
insight into the valuable contributions made to the Lowcountry
by the 40-and-under workforce.
Most
Bizarre Bit of State History: Our "History
Spotlight" feature on March 12 took a look at Ben Sawyer,
whose name graces a Mount Pleasant boulevard and bridge. The write-up
included this "do what now??" fact: "On December
22, 1940, Sawyer, pursuing a weight-loss regimen in the office of
a Columbia chiropractor, was accidentally asphyxiated." Do
what now?
Favorite
Currents Column by the Boss (and We Don't Mean Bruce Springsteen):
Incredibly hard to choose just one favorite from all of publisher
Andy Brack's Monday columns, but the food lover in me had a great
time reading about which local restaurants Andy and our friend Dave
Shimp would visit for their last meals. That
column still makes me hungry.
Favorite
Lists, the Sequel: Today's List at the top of the page is a
list of five past Lists that are worth a second look, but why stop
there? A few of our other favorites from the past year include:
Favorite
Photo: Gotta be the one from our first issue -- the
striking look over the shoulder of the John C. Calhoun statue
that towers above Marion Square. The photo was taken by my husband,
but that's only part of why I like it. It's really my favorite photo
because it seems to sum up, in one image, what Charleston Currents
is about: offering a distinctively different, broad perspective
of the community, with a brief nod to the past but a longer view
out over the horizon to what's ahead.
Here's
to another great year for Charleston Currents!

Three
Marine generals in Afghanistan are Citadel graduates
Three
graduates of The Citadel are now on the front lines of the war on
terror in Afghanistan. Maj. Gen. Michael R. Regner, '76; Brig. Gen.
Lawrence D. Nicholson, '79; and Brig. Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr.,
'79, all deployed to Afghanistan this year with the U.S. Marine
Corps and are currently serving there.
"It
is unique that you have that many general officers serving in a
relatively small theater like Afghanistan and that all of them are
Citadel graduates," says Col. Brent Dunahoe, commanding officer
of the NROTC unit on campus. To date more than 1,300 Citadel graduates
have been deployed in the war on terror. Fourteen have lost their
lives.
Regner
serves as deputy chief of staff for Combined Joint Operations at
the International Security Assistance Force Joint Command, Operation
Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Regner was raised in Charleston
and graduated from The Citadel with a bachelor of science in physical
education. He received his commission in 1976. Regner later earned
a master's degree in public administration from Webster College.
He deployed to ISAF Afghanistan in August.
Nicholson
is the commanding general of the Second Marine Expeditionary Brigade.
Born in Toronto, Canada, Nicholson is a 1979 graduate of The Citadel,
where he earned a bachelor of science in business administration.
Nicholson also holds a master's from the U.S. Army Command and General
Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. His experiences while deployed
in Iraq, including having been wounded when a rocket exploded in
his office, have been nationally reported on NPR's "Morning
Edition" and "All Things Considered."
McKenzie
is deputy chief of staff for stability with the International Security
Assistance Force in Afghanistan. He graduated from The Citadel in
1979 with a bachelor of arts in secondary education. An honors graduate
of the Armor Officer Advanced Course, Marine Corps Command and Staff
College, and the School of Advanced Warfighting, McKenzie has a
master's in teaching with a concentration in history. He served
as a Senior Military Fellow within the Institute for National Strategic
Studies at the National Defense University.
REVIEW
181 Palmer
Looking
for a restaurant to have a fantabulous, elegant lunch without costing
an arm and a leg? Head over to 181 Palmer, a 50-seat restaurant
off Columbus at Trident Tech's Culinary Institute of Charleston.
The restaurant is a student-centered food lab where new chefs prepare
outstanding food. For the $15-per-person prix fixe lunch (see
the menu), you
get an appetizer, entrée and dessert. We thrilled to a goat
cheese tart with two kinds of roasted beets, a succulent piece of
sautéed mahi-mahi on winter vegetables and an artisanal Camembert
with fresh figs and candied kumquat for dessert. Our luncheon companion
also had the tart, accompanied by tantalizing oyster po'boy sliders
and a lemon torte. Not only is the whole experience yummy, but it's
fun too - you can watch the cooks prepare the meal via live video
displayed on the restaurant walls. Lunch is served Monday through
Thursday starting at noon. Reservations are highly suggested (click

HISTORY
SPOTLIGHT
Blackbeard
Most
commonly known today as Edward Teach, in the Carolinas in the early
eighteenth century Blackbeard was called Edward Thatch. Since confusion
about his real name has confounded researchers into his background,
his birthplace and parentage remain unknown.
Edward
"Blackbeard" Teach
|
Surfacing
in Jamaica in mid-1717, Blackbeard in eighteen months carved an
extraordinarily successful career as a pirate, creating an indelible
image of "the fiercest pirate of them all" and making
him a global icon. A tall and domineering figure possessing a volatile
and charismatic personality, Blackbeard cultivated a reputation
as "a Devil incarnate" that was enhanced by his boarding
ships while brandishing numerous weapons and while wreathed in smoke
from burning tapers in his beard and hair.
Like
most pirates of his era, he began as a privateer during Queen Anne's
War (1701-1713).
Blackbeard's first piratical voyage was
in summer 1717 to the North American coast from the Carolinas to
Delaware Bay. In the fall Blackbeard commanded Stede Bonnet's sloop
Revenge in another rampage on the same coast, taking eleven prizes.
Cruising in the Leeward Islands in November, Blackbeard seized the
French slave ship Concorde, heavily armed it, and named it Queen
Anne's Revenge. With Revenge and Queen Anne's Revenge, Blackbeard
swept across the Caribbean.
The
pirate captains separated over the winter but reunited by chance
in March 1718 off the Central American Spanish Main. Blackbeard
now sailed north to the Carolinas with a four-ship flotilla, mounting
at least sixty guns, the most powerful maritime force in the hemisphere.
Arriving off Charleston in mid-May, he blockaded the port for a
week, seizing prizes and hostages for ransom. This infamous feat
"struck a great Terror to the whole Province of Carolina."
Plundering eight or nine ships for supplies and specie, Blackbeard
held hostages, including Samuel Wragg, a councilman. Under the threat
of the hostages being murdered, a reluctant Governor Robert Johnson
agreed to a ransom of a valuable chest of medicine.
From
Charleston, Blackbeard sailed to isolated North Carolina, where
at Beaufort Inlet in June two of his vessels-Queen Anne's Revenge
and Adventure-wrecked. He took the royal pardon from Governor Charles
Eden, married in Bath, and scaled down his illegal activities. Blackbeard
established a camp at Ocracoke Inlet, the chief entrance to the
colony, and appeared virtually to have retired from piracy. Uneasy
at having a notorious pirate nearby, however, Virginia governor
Alexander Spottswood invaded North Carolina with a naval and land
force. Blackbeard was cornered at Ocracoke on November 22, 1718,
by Lieutenant Robert Maynard's flotilla and killed.

THE
LIST
Five favorite
lists
Stahl
|
CharlestonCurrents.com
marks the conclusion of its first full year with this issue, so
we decided to celebrate by recalling five of our lists that deserve
a second look.
- On Nov.
6 last year, celebrated Southern chef Nathalie Dupree,
who lives in Charleston, offered
five tips to help us get organized for Thanksgiving dinner.
- On Dec.
1, maestro David Stahl from the Charleston Symphony Orchestra
had us singing along to a list of his five
favorite holiday-season songs.
- Back in
May, when the swine flu started grabbing headlines, Charlotte
Anderson, vice president of 2-1-1 services for Trident United
Way, shared the agency's five
most frequently asked questions about swine flu (along with
the answers). With flu season here, this is a good one to revisit.
- In August
we got some chuckles from hearing about a Facebook group
called "You
know you're from Charleston if
"
- In January,
WCBD-TV chief meteorologist Rob Fowler shared his five
favorite weather months in the Lowcountry. Here's a hint:
Rob must be pretty happy right now.
If you've got
a list to share -- or an idea for one -- drop
us an e-mail.

"A house
is never still in darkness to those who listen intently; there is
a whispering in distant chambers, an unearthly hand presses the
snib of the window, the latch rises. Ghosts were created when the
first man awoke in the night."

Barrie, Scottish novelist (1860 - 1937)
