ClevelandSAVING THE BREUER - RIGHT VS MIGHTSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 07/22/2007 - 12:22.
The IngenuityFest public outreach efforts of Sally Levine and David Ellison are intended to prevent Cuyahoga County from demolishing Cleveland’s Marcel Breuer designed Ameritrust Tower. Ms. Levine and Mr. Ellison present a “Right vs Might” poster boy case of passionate public citizens who are “right” going up against “City Hall” “might”. Except in this case it isn’t “City Hall”, but “County Hall”.

ERECT MEN AT INGENUITY FEST - DOWNTOWN CLEVELANDSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sat, 07/21/2007 - 11:00.
In geologic cadence Troika Ranch developed their dark on-stage anthropology. Could also be a display of schizoid spousal personality disorder - views in a mad house. Womens' forearms definitely became homo erections; stiletto pumps – maturing desire or just vertical ambulatory evolutionary expression?

Anyone have experience with eco-friendly strippers and coatings?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 07/19/2007 - 19:02.
We're about to start prepping and painting lots of plaster walls and protecting lots of wood trim, windows, doors and floors, inside and out. As we are bringing the property to its most natural state possible, removing most paint, varnish, and wallpaper, we are working from very raw materials, and feel that is good. How do we now keep our house as natural as possible, as we finish it up?
WINDPOWER ON THE WATER - EDGEWATER INBOUNDSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sat, 07/14/2007 - 18:38.
This is a shot taken over the breakwater last Wednesday, July 11, 2007. I thought it would be fun to see it up against Norm's Realneo Header. I'm not sure where Norm's photo was taken - are there any of the same spinnakers in the two photos?
REAL PAINT – REAL COMMITMENT – REAL ACCOMPLISHMENTSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 07/13/2007 - 14:15.
Riverview Baptist Church from Franklin, Ohio (south of Dayton, Oh.) in cooperation with Fresh Coat Cleveland spent a week providing their earnest and good spirited (the job site near E55th and Superior was a upbeat place to be) volunteer labor in Cleveland painting houses.

CLEVELAND - RUSH HOUR OUTBOUND OFF EDGEWATERSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 07/12/2007 - 09:27.
Rush hours are abhorrent everywhere (forget inconvenience to us humans - the exhaust is killing the globe), from Boston's SouthEast"Expressway" to the Cleveland Inner Belt and "dead man's curve" (which ODOT will "fix" - right?) to the interstate 5 in LA But here is a view of a rush hour in Cleveland that is really exhilarating.
ROLDO FIRST TO REPORT ON STRAIGHTENING CROOKED CUYAHOGA RIVERSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Wed, 07/11/2007 - 12:49.
Now this down to earth engineering plan to rectify the natural state of the Cuyahoga River is an operation I could get behind long before I could support Bill Mason's wind turbines "about 3 miles out on Lake Erie".

TEAR DOWN THE UGLY ONE - CUYAHOGA COUNTY COMMISSIONER TIM HAGANSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Mon, 07/09/2007 - 08:44.
Here's the photo of the Breuer Building which respectfully reflects the Breuer neighboring buildings. Where has the Cleveland Foundation been during the discussion of the removal of the Marcel Breuer Building out of downtown Cleveland, Ohio? The CF hasn't been shy about lobbying for wind energy, for which the Foundation is to be applauded. And the wind energy issue certainly has a political side – the other side from the republican oil and gas industry. Why doesn't the CF jump in on this historic preservation issue?
TEAR DOWN THE UGLY ONE - MARCEL BREUERSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 07/08/2007 - 22:38.
Beauty inside the mind of the beholder? sure, but education from our peers who know the difference helps get us up the ladder of appreciation. Here's a shot from the plebian street...GOT UGLY? Marcel Breuer – do you get it?
EYE OF THE BREUER STORMSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 07/08/2007 - 09:54.
If local eyes are shut to the value of the Breuer, perhaps this iconic eye of the Building will be recognized by a sophisticated developer as one reason to remove and reassemble the stone and precast concrete elements hung on the steel core of this 1970 structure.
REALNEO, Claes and Evelyn, make Cleveland Magazine this month, at Gallery U-HaulSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 07/04/2007 - 13:45.
I've appreciated having Cleveland Magazine pick up some of my photos from REALNEO for publication in their print edition - last time featuring the Van Duzer show at Convivium and this month featuring Gallery U-Haul, and my wife Evelyn and son Claes, at the April 11, 2007 Tremont Art Walk... I look forward to seeing you at Patsy Kline's homeless gallery at the July 13 Tremont Art Walk, where she will hold a Gas Money Garage Sale.
New neighbor at W. 45th and DetroitSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 07/03/2007 - 18:38.
I noticed, the other morning, that overnight a new tag had popped up on dozens of buildings from the corner of W. 45th and Dertoit west. The tag is "Sexy Hek", and "Hek", for short, and has no real creative value... just someone shouting out. What does it mean, and why there and that night?

Level Three Gallery presents “Objectify”Submitted by Norm Roulet on Sun, 07/01/2007 - 15:23.
07/06/2007 - 18:00 07/06/2007 - 22:00 Etc/GMT-4 My wife and I are big fans of NEO artist Gina DeSantis - I started buying her functional ceramic pieces when she first showed at Buzz (we love her rice bowls designed with chopsticks in mind). When Buzz closed, we hunted Gina down to continue buying her work. So, when she announced Level Three Gallery it was such good news... be sure to check Level Three Gallery and Gina's work (above) out at their upcoming show, described below... Location

06.22.07 Header: Spaces Opening on Superior ViaductSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Sat, 06/23/2007 - 23:10.
Friday, June 22, 2007, "Storage Spaces" opened at Spaces Gallery - continuing their orientation on "Shrinking Cities". It is a very cool show, with many great works in a variety of mediums. And Spaces is a cool arts anti-establishment. As I was up there on the Viaduct, shown in the header attached below, I reflected it has changed character so much, with the growth of condos contrasting with the shrinking cities theme of the moment, since I lived in one of the loft buildings a bit further down... before the viaduct went glass and chrome. I already miss the old days of industrial decay.

Inner Circle to Become Dress Circle as Excellence Roundtable Features Cleveland Orchestra Violist Eliesha NelsonSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 06/05/2007 - 23:33.

Eliesha will discuss with us how she decided to get into the "recording business" and how the community can help her project succeed - and the purpose of this roundtable is to help Eliesha's project succeed.

06/01/2007 - 18:00 06/01/2007 - 22:00 Etc/GMT-4 It is great to see more progress in the growth of the art scene in the mid-town and St. Clair arts district area, with the opening of Level Three Gallery this weekend... another sign of vibrant life. I like the work of the artists I know from this group so am glad to see them situated again - some showed together at Buzz, on W. 25th, which I liked very much. I look forward to seeing this new space and their new work. So, this Friday, June 1, art and culture lovers should start with a tour through the Hough bakeries, at the Inner Circle, for Happy Hour, then head over to CIA for their opening of Design Values 2, and then to Level Three for their opening, described below. By the end of the evening, you will not have driven far, will have done lots of great, authentic Cleveland things, and had plenty of opportunites for good company, art, food and cheer. Location
