Tips for enjoying the 33rd Cleveland International Film Festival March 19-29, Tower City CinemasSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Mon, 03/16/2009 - 00:38.
Once a year, during the brief run of the Cleveland International Film Festival, Cleveland feels like one of the great cities of the world. For a little more than a week the grand space of Tower City is filled with life; diverse crowds of art lovers flow in and out, steadily buzzing with excitement for what they are experiencing. Because it only happens once a year, it is easy to overlook The Cleveland International Film Festival as one of Cleveland's greatest assets.

Some tax advice from an art historian -- Don't waste your time and money on Turbo TaxSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Sat, 02/21/2009 - 15:53.
I prefer to write about the arts, but my experience the other night has me inspired to blog about online tax programs. This year I decided to try Turbo Tax for my Federal and State tax returns -- it was such a waste of time. I ended up starting over and filing with Free Tax USA.

Real NEO art never left!Submitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 07/02/2008 - 13:03.
I love art, and much in the Cleveland Museum's collection, and the old and newish CMA, but I am not convinced the current reengineering of the museum is economically positive for the region, and I am very displeased with their new slogan "art is back" as shallow and disrespectful to the real NEO arts community, which has never left. The museum needs to better explore its identity and role here, as so many arts organizations, our population and economy transition, and the CMA takes a proportionately larger share of the arts funding pie. If CMA is spending $100s millions constructing new edifices for old mold and cobwebs, I will be very disappointed. I'm waiting to see Rub put his shine on anything, other than proclaiming art is back in a place it never left. What do you think... did art leave?
Gray's Auctioneers March 1st sale exciting event in the fine arts market w/ sale of California Impressionist paintingsSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Thu, 03/06/2008 - 01:05.
Gray's Auctioneers Saturday March 1st sale was an exciting event in the fine arts market with the sale of two paintings by important California Impressionist painters, Orrin Augustine White and Arthur Grover Rider. This was probably the first time works by these artists were sold in Northeast Ohio. Both works had languished for decades in a Cleveland area home, their historical significance and value unrealized until they were discovered discovered by auctioneer Deba Gray. Both paintings were securely identified by the artists' signatures and original gallery stickers on the back of one of the canvases. The consignor was thrilled to find out that the paintings, which she believed to be worthless except for their gilded original frames, were actually worth thousands of dollars. Gray's Auctioneers featured both paintings on their promotional postcard and on the cover of their auction catalog. ( categories: )

How best to preserve an artist's works?Submitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Sun, 02/17/2008 - 14:30.
How can the Internet be used to preserve an artist's legacy? Can the Internet make an artist accessible to the world when their work is not exhibited in museums or found in art history books? Is art experienced through the Internet and never seen in person as meaningful and inspiring as art experienced in person? Most of the Realneo community would agree that the Internet and social networking is a useful tool in promoting artists and arts events, but what are the untapped possibilities and limitations. What role can the Internet play in preserving art for the future? As we begin the 21st century there are more artists in the world than ever before, more art work created and probably larger audiences for art as well. But with more artists and art created there is also more art being lost. ( categories: )
January Emporium Auction at Grays AuctioneersSubmitted by Evelyn Kiefer on Fri, 01/25/2008 - 15:51.
01/26/2008 - 13:00 01/26/2008 - 15:00 Etc/GMT-4 It's a new year and a new day of the week for Gray's Auctioneers monthy auctions! The first auction of 2008 is this Saturday, January 26th at 1 pm. In this auction you will find the typical great deals and unique and interesting items. There are vintage and antique Chinese decorative items, textiles and furniture. There are some high quality vintage dining room sets by makers such as Ethan Allen and Drexel Heritage that are sure to sell for such low prices that it will make anyone who buys such stuff for retail ill. There is a very handsome Arts and Craft desk. The newest jewelry consignments are tasteful and priced to sell (great Valentines Day gifts). The real deals of this auction, in my opinion, are the fine art. There are some great prints mixed in lots of "framed decorative items." But, by far the coolest thing in the whole auction is a hand made model of the Quenn Mary made by E. K. Koos in a hand made glass and teak wood case. Location

ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGOSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 12/27/2007 - 22:36.
When I visited The Art Institute of Chicago there was an icy rain coming in off of Lake Michigan. The sky was slate gray and at two in the afternoon the headlights and tail lights of the cars on South Michigan Avenue reflected off the shiny wet asphalt as I crossed. Getting inside the warm lobby of the museum felt good. A $12.00 ticket provides entry to the galleries. I hadn’t been here before – I had pleasant surprises ahead.
Request for feedback on intergenerational living and learning neighborhood developmentSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 12/26/2007 - 09:10.
Global warming will bring an end to white Christmas and winter as we've always known in, here in NEO, so during the first real snowstorm of this season, December 16, 2007, I went in search of a visual symbol of NEO, in my neighborhood, strong enough to stand out in white-out conditions, and I came to the Breuer! Not the Breuer Tower, of global controversy, but the Breuer Museum wing of global celebration, design elements of which are featured in the latest additions to the Cleveland Museum of Art, shown on the left here, now evolving form in the hands of Vinoly.
