SUMMARY:Exhibition — "Home and Home: New York in My Life" — Photographs by Satomi Shirai
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) announces “Home and Home: New York in My Life\,” an exhibition of photographs by Satomi Shirai. These seven works reveal\, in boldly playful as well as subtle ways\, a newly arrived immigrant’s strategies to create a sense of home and to discover what those strategies are. From the outset\, CRS has sought to provide a creative and spiritual home to artists and seekers from all over the world\, and we believe that this exhibition speaks directly to our mission and the experience of so many members of our community. \nThe exhibition will open on October 19\, 2015 and be on display through November 28\, 2015. An opening reception with the artist will take place on Friday\, October 23\, 2015 from 7:30 – 9:30 pm. \nWhile the photographs in this exhibition look like documentary-style records of the often messy and alien life that an immigrant lives prior to acquiring furnishings and fully settling in (does an immigrant ever fully settle in?)\, the photographs are actually meticulously staged with a highly controlled mastery of mis-en-scene and craft. This creates a tension between order and chaos\, reality and artifice\, into which the artist places herself and her own child and friends as models\, challenging our initial impulse to label the life depicted as disordered. The more we look\, the more we recognize objects\, symbols\, behaviors\, relationships that give meaning and context to the home depicted. We recognize that we carry home within us and carry on a never-ending process of using our minds in diverse and complex ways to anchor ourselves and project our sense of home into our habitat\, making it our own even in the midst of constant change. \nAbout Satomi Shirai \nSatomi Shirai is originally from Tokyo\, and currently lives and works in New York. She completed the full-time Certificate Program at International Center of Photography in 2007\, and received her MFA from CUNY Hunter College in 2010. Her works have been exhibited nationally and internationally including at Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography\, National Portrait Gallery in London\, and Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. Her photographs are in the collection of Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography and Kiyosato Museum of Photographic art. \nhttp://www.satomishirai.com \nArtist Statement \nWalls with windows and doors form the house\,\nbut the empty space within it is the essence of the house.\n— from The Uses of Not\, Lao Tse \nIn this body of work\, Home and Home: New York in My Life\, I explore what constitutes the concept of home\, as an immigrant who chose to live in New York. Tangibility versus intangibility are brought up\, and added to the discussion. How do we assess or assume home? \nMy relocation to New York is not about overcoming a culture that is distinct\, but encountering and understanding cultural disparity and similarity. Living in NYC highlights the intangible aspects of cultures today that include language\, myth\, mind-sets\, daily customs\, social class issues\, and identity. The diverse sense of femininity provides me other vantage point to examine the collective consciousness in the cities. \nI am bringing up positions of custom\, holiday\, architecture\, dress\, food\, location\, and home design as a means to explore how culture is being inter-mixed or is remaining unchanged at a microcosmic level\, and how national identity and sensibility are maintained or relinquished through living in a cross-cultural city life. The more understanding of cultural contrasts I have\, the more I feel closer to the U.S\, and so my space in New York is psychologically being expanded. \nA new point of view has been added to my life and work. I gave birth to my baby in New York and became a mother. This has enormously shifted my state of mind and lifestyle. The project or new chapter will be continued with the unknown transitions. \n

SUMMARY:π=3.14...First Reading with Three Actresses
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) presents a new play with video by Yoshiko Chuma & the School of Hard Knocks in the White Room at CRS. The text is taken from the π=3.14 series of works that journeyed from 2000 – 2015 through Sarajevo\, Macedonia\, Manipur\, Romania\, Fukushima\, Ramallah\, Amman\, Kabul\, Berlin and New York. \nDesign\, Direction and Concept/Dry Tech:  Yoshiko Chuma\nCast:  Miriam Parker\, Saori Tsukada and Heather Litteer\nLive Video Painting:  Kit Fitzgerald\nUnfinished Series Film and Documentation:  Megumi Eda \nDesigned by Clouds AO\, winners of the recent NASA competition to design the first inhabitable structure to be built on Mars\, and opened in June of this year\, the White Room at CRS was named by Homes to Love as one of nine studios around the world to “achieve design nirvana.” This performance will be the first theatrical event to be held in the space. \nPerformances will take place on Friday & Saturday\, November 20 & 21\, 2015 at 7:30 pm and 9 pm. The performance is 70′ in duration. Tickets are $20 ($15 for students and seniors)\, and there are only 15 seats available for each performance. \nYoshiko Chuma\, artistic director of The School of Hard Knocks (SOHK)\, has been a creative force in postmodern performance\, traveling and interacting with artists in relatively isolated parts of the world since the 1980’s. She has assembled her newest project\, π=3.14…First Reading with Three Actresses\, through a creative process called “Dry Tech” that emphasizes verbal communication between the artists. Dry Tech traditionally refers to a theatrical rehearsal without the performers\, in which the design and technical staff run through the operation of all the technical elements of production\, stopping and starting to make adjustments. In contrast\, the Chuma-style Dry Tech consists of a meeting\, usually not in the performance space\, that includes the entire team including performers wherein Chuma leads the team exclusively through the verbal calling out of the technical cues and action and extensive discussion of the work. The method—often interview style—investigates the artists’ perspectives and stories—both artistic and personal. This creative process mines material from the team members’ sharing about how they understand the work and how they view themselves in the context of making the work. Elements of this material may then be incorporated into the production\, enabling a multiplicity of distinct and at times conflicting voices and viewpoints to emerge and co-exist. \n \n  \n \nABOUT THE TEAM \nYOSHIKO CHUMA (conceptual artist/choreographer/artistic director of The School of Hard Knocks) has been a firebrand of New York’s downtown dance scene since arriving in 1978. She has created more than 60 full-length company works\, commissions and site-specific events for venues in 35 countries\, constantly challenging the notion of performing for both audience and participant. Her work has been presented in such diverse venues as Joyce Theater\, the Eiffel Tower\, Newcastle Swing Bridge\, City Center\, Lincoln Center\, the former National Theater of Sarajevo\, the perimeter of the Hong Kong harbor\, and an ancient ruin in Macedonia\, and in Jordan\, among others. She has received fellowships and awards for choreography and career work from John Simon Guggenheim Foundation\, NEA\, New York Foundation for Artists\, Japan Foundation\, Meet the Composer Choreographer/Composer Commission and Philip Morris New Works. Chuma has led workshops and master classes and been commissioned to create new work in East and West Europe\, Asia\, Russia and the U.S. She received a 1984 BESSIE award for choreography and four more Bessies were awarded to her productions in 1992 and 1998.

An elegant refined presence perfectly poised\, she played with precision\, beauty and the utmost confidence….” — San Francisco Examiner \nThis will be the first in a seasonal series of music concerts called Four Seasons in New York — Gems of Japanese Music. After many centuries\, the brilliance of traditional Japanese music is still being passed on to the present day.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  "Debris of Angel" by Su
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) presents an exhibition of painted and collaged images of angels assembled from photographs of the debris of the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011 by the Iwate\, Japan-based artist Su. Much of this vast quantity debris has accumulated along the coast of Japan and though the waves and the weather slowly break them apart\, many forms are still recognizable as the door of someone’s house or a family’s beloved vase or shrine or jewelry box\, fragments evoking memories of lives lost and torn asunder. Su believes that by transforming these remnants into new works of beauty\, it is possible to renew the love and hope in the hearts of the people who experienced this loss. \nHiromi Suzuki（Su） \nSu was born in 1970 in Iwate prefecture in Japan and lives as a transsexual. He is half way through a journey to discover what is the “essence of living.” Even though he has been familiar with pictures since his childhood\, one of Picasso’s pictures gave him a shock when he saw it in his art text book in his junior high school.\nIt gave him the message that “It’s ok to draw free! It’s ok to live free!” and it freed him from the belief that drawing should be realistic. \nAfter he grew up\, Su established his career as a nurse. But he couldn’t stop his enthusiasm for drawing pictures and expressing himself creatively. From 2003 he started to study art design by taking correspondence courses through Kyoto University of Art and Design and to learn western painting by correspondence through Musashino Art University. As he continued to focus his investigations on what is the essence of living\, he began to bring DNA and crystals into his artworks. He also began producing self-portraits. Su believes that Art can have a universal meaning and connect with people across borders. He has been dreaming of exhibiting his art works in a foreign gallery so as to communicate with people all over the world. Participating in the CRS gallery exhibition in 2015 is a first step for him to find one of the answers of his journey. \nAwards\nIn 2012 : Won a Iwate Art Festival’s President award\nIn 2008 : Won a Iwate Art Festival award\nIn 2005 : Won a Morioka Art Festival award \nExhibition History\nIn 2015 : Group exhibition of Iwate TV and Group exhibition of Sendai Media Park\nIn 2014 : Group exhibition of Iwate TV\nIn 2013 : Group exhibition of Iwate TV\nIn 2012 : Group exhibition of Iwate TV\nIn 2011 : Group exhibition of Iwate TV\nIn 2010 : Group exhibition of “Hatten Go” in the Numata museum in Tokyo\nIn 2008 : Group exhibition of “Hatten Go” in the gallery Bun Bun in Obihiro\, Hokkaido\nIn 2000 : Participated with Es Do Alt exhibition \nSu has been participating in many exhibitions.\nHis art works have been selected continuously by Nikakai Art Exhibition since 2011. \nHe will continue his journey internationally and domestically until he find his “Essence” via art works.

SUMMARY:Sacred Sounds for Cosmic Consciousness
DESCRIPTION:Yunji Shin has been called to create sacred space for an intimate ritual performance for the activation and unlocking of higher consciousness for a circle of 10 people. The canyon-shaped White Room has been chosen for it’s acoustic properties and resonance. Through the sound immersion of crystalline frequencies and shamanic initiation\, we will tap into our psychic senses and enter non-ordinary reality to communicate to our Higher Selves and Angelic Realm in heightened awareness. There will be some group vocalizing to amplify the energy of the circle and its healing capacity. \nThis is a sound meditation in which we will expand our sense of reality beyond the finite to the infinite. It will be an alchemical circle of people who are going through a transitional period at this time and is ready to receive messages and activations from Source to illuminate their path at this current time. The Future is Now. This workshop is for people who are ready to experience metamorphosis into the next stage in life as the year comes to an end. Using sacred sounds will be a powerful way to tap into clear and focused intentions of what you are seeking and what you desire for yourself at this time and what you are ready to let go of in order to experience your own innate Truth and Freedom. This is about showing up for yourself to bring accelerated evolution at the soul level and to eliminate any illusions you may be carrying at this time. Each person will receive channeled and individualized frequencies of guidance at this pivotal time. Our circle will be about transitioning into the new paradigm gently and smoothly and shedding old belief systems and outmoded structures of thinking that no longer work. There will be channeled guidance in the closing circle for the month of December for preparation of the new year. \nThe main energy of 2015 is about re-structuring\, shedding\, de-layering\, processing\, integrating\, internalizing\, discovering. \nThe main energy and opportunity for 2016 will be about actualizing\, doing\, stepping in fully\, trusting\, externalizing (reflecting your new internal structure to the outside world)\, being fully you. You will keep discovering but it is about application. \nThe key is to continue to UN-lock and UN-veil so the path becomes clearer and clearer for you to effortlessly walk the illuminated path you were born to live. \n**Free handout will be provided for anyone who wishes to practice vocalizing outside of the event\nPROGRAM \n:: Introduction & Intention Setting :: \n:: Breathwork\, Group Vocalizing & Toning – Breathwork to ground in\, then we will go through the 7 chakras through guided toning to release\, let go and prepare for the sound meditation. Your voice is your vessel. \n:: Sound Initiation & Activation – Through the diverse soundscape of indigenous tools such as shakers\, rattles\, seedpods along with modern alchemy crystal singing bowls\, you will be initiated and activated to tap into the cosmic doorways of higher sensing/being. Yunji will be using her breath and voice to shape-shift the energy of the room and it’s participants as it merges with the frequencies of the healing instruments. If you feel called to tone during this time\, feel free to merge with the sounds. \n:: Closing Circle – opportunity to share your experience and to connect deeper with each other. Tea will be served to ground. \nInvestment: $30 (10 participants only) \nTickets: https://sacredsounds.splashthat.com/ \nVideos\, Photos & more Details: https://sacredsounds.splashthat.com/ \n\nBio: \n\n\n\n\nYunji Shin is the Sound Alchymist\, certified Sound Practitioner\, Performer and Shamanista\, using energy work\, the breath and channeled voice\, Alchemy crystal bowls and ancient/modern instruments to transport participants into altered states of consciousness for healing\, transformation and activations. Receiving her certification through Grammy-nominated musician and sound healer\, Jonathan Goldman\, Yunji’s gift is hereditary through her grandmother\, a gong player who also used the traditional Korean drum called the “jjang-o” for ceremonies and performance. Returning from a vocalizing sound retreat in Nature’s amphitheater\, the Grand Canyon\, as well as a vibrational journey to the ancient stone circles of Ireland and England\, her instruments and voice are charged and activated to awaken the multi-dimensional body within all of us. Facilitating and serving in ceremonies with shamans and gatekeepers and working with sounds in sacred sites\, Yunji is here to share the vibrational medicine of Mother Earth and the portal to reach Infinity. \nShe is available for private sessions to deepen and fine-tune individual growth and evolution {yunji@soundalchymist.com}

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Space Beyond — Speculative Works by Clouds AO
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) is delighted to announce an exhibition of designs by Clouds AO\, the award-winning designers of our new third-floor facilities. Their design for our White Room was recently named one of “nine yoga studios that achieve design nirvana” by HOMESTOLOVE magazine. The two-part\, floor-to-ceiling installation in this exhibition is intended to expand the window-less lobby space of CRS and create a vision of “Space Beyond” where speculative concepts are presented in architectural scale\, integrated into the underlying structure of the space. The exhibition opens Dec 23\, 2015 and runs through January 31\, 2016. An Opening Reception with Clouds AO architects Masayuki Sono and Ostap Rudakevych will be held on January 23\, 2016. \nCloud Skippers (North wall):\nImagine a community of adventurous pioneers who leave the Earth’s surface to drift and glide amongst the clouds in machine-like dwellings. By employing large wings\, Cloud Skippers hitch the constant winds of the jet stream\, lifting entire communities to the clouds. Cloud Skippers glean the bounties of the Earth’s atmosphere\, employing electricity-generating wind turbines along with large funnels for the collection rainwater. \nFive Twenty Minus Five (South wall):\nAfter fifty years in operation and retiring from its service\, we propose the 520 floating bridge located in Lake Washington in Seattle to be submerged five centimeters below water to transform it to subsurface pedestrian walkway\, next to its newly built traffic bridge. By enabling visitors to appear to be mysteriously treading on water\, the old 520 creates a unique experience that questions our relationship & create intimate collisions with nature. \nClouds AO Artist Statement\nArchitecture has become a discipline obsessed with form making. Our explorations focus on the potential of the immaterial. We are interested in the experiential qualities of architecture\, ways in which form and material can elicit lasting emotional or cognitive revelation. To achieve such an architecture requires careful attention to the unique parameters of each project. Research and analysis are distilled\, with relevant facts materialized. Our goal is to create conditions that allow for a resonant experience by the synthesis of ideas through design. \nClouds AO Profile\nClouds Architecture Office has produced a number of built and speculative projects distilled from research and analysis that explores the intersection between conceptual and experiential approaches to the built environment. Their work includes the publication of ‘Third Sphere\,’ an article describing a suspended city based on the principle of the space elevator (Kerb Journal\, 2012) and ‘Comet Runner‘ which envisioned harnessing a comet for interplanetary exploration (Dezeen\, 2015). In 2014\, they were nominated for the Iakov Chernikhov Prize\, and in 2015 Clouds AO received the American Institute of Architects New York Chapter Honor Award\, and First Prize in NASA’s Centennial Challenges: 3-D Printed Habitat for Mars.

SUMMARY:FREE New Year's Eve Guided Meditation & Yoga
DESCRIPTION:At the end of each year\, CRS Founder Yasuko Kasaki offers a FREE one-hour Guided Meditation\, drawing on the principles of A Course in Miracles\, so that we can all begin the new year with a clear mind. This year she’ll also lead everyone through an introductory exercise in spiritual reading so that each of you may come away with some inspirational message from your inner teacher. The meditation will last about an hour and will be followed by a short yoga class\, led by CRS Yoga Instructor Hazuki Homma. You are welcome to attend either or both as long as there is room. \nIt’s usually standing-room only so you’ll want to arrive a few minutes early. No previous experience with meditation or yoga is necessary. \nYou can listen to a recording of a previous New Year’s meditation here:http://crsny.podbean.com/2011/01/04/acim-guided-meditation-dec-31-2010 \nThe yoga class will draw on gentle breathing exercises and beginner level asanas to get us moving again and bring our mental presence of mind into our awareness of our bodies. The class will be more physical than in past years but still simple enough for people of any experience level with yoga…and  while clothing you can move well in will be more comfortable\, if you are wearing festive attire you should still be able to adapt. Yoga mats will be provided.

SUMMARY:The Law in These Parts (film screening) 1/11
DESCRIPTION:CRS FILM+VIDEO SHOW & TELL invites you to join artist Yoshiko Chuma to screen and discuss the award-winning Israeli documentary “THE LAW IN THESE PARTS” on Friday\, January 11\, 2013 at 7 pm.\nThe film investigates the legal structure developed by Israel to govern the Palestinian territories seized by Israel during the 1967 Six Days War and subsequently controlled by Israel. \nFollowing the screening\, choreographer Yoshiko Chuma\, who has worked repeatedly in the Middle East and recently in the Occupied Territories and on international tour with members of the Palestinian dance company El-Funoun\, will lead an informal discussion of the film and describe her own efforts to shed light on the plight of the people of Palestine and to help their voices to be heard. Our intention is to facilitate a thoughtful\, respectful\, and compassionate conversation about the issues explored in the film.\nTickets are $10 and are available at CRS and online here. \nAbout the Film\n“THE LAW IN THESE PARTS” (Israel • 2011) runs 101 minutes and is in Hebrew with English subtitles.\n	http://www.thelawfilm.com/\nWhat is legal and what is just? The wide gap between the two is explored meticulously by this Israeli investigation (winner of the Best Documentary Award at the Sundance and Jerusalem Film Festivals) of the legal structure created after the 1967 Six Days War\, specifically to treat the West Bank and Gaza Strip as occupied territories. Speaking with some of Israel’s most respected lawyers and judges – men who helped to craft and later interpret these laws –  filmmaker Ra’anan Alexandrowicz asks tough\, pointed questions and gets even tougher answers. He asks his subjects to consider the consequences of their actions in a highly politicized environment. THE LAW IN THESE PARTS takes the position that unjust laws create unjust realities. Laws that everyone admits are not perfect but are the best that can be done under difficult circumstances may result in tragedy for everyone: both the judges and the judged.\n  \nAbout Guest Host Yoshiko Chuma\n“When you meet other cultures\, you focus on how different you are\, but eventually you realize that you are not so different. Creation begins by looking at that gap. And that gap was what made me an artist.” — Yoshiko Chuma\, Founder of The School of Hard Knocks\nIn April\, 2011\, avant-garde choreographer Yoshiko Chuma completed 6 Seconds in Ramallah in Palestine\, a project that involved fifteen artists from Japan and the US\, who traveled over several borders to Ramallah\, to collaborate with Palestinian Dance Troupe El-Funoun.  After returning home\, the collaborators all felt tremendous excitement and thrill\, having made something that was more than a preconceived notion of theater or dance work Since then\, that project has provided the seeds for Love Story\, Palestine\, a theater work framed by barbed wire\, a mosaic of segments whose contents pertain to pain. \n	http://www.yoshikochuma.org\n	http://www.occupationlayer.blogspot.com/\n	https://sites.google.com/site/yoshikochumanoorabaker/   in japanese\nReviews of the Film\n“Presents a devastating case against the occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. An inquiry into justice.”\n	– Rachel Saltz\, The New York Times\n“Exacting and heartfelt. Thoughtful\, thorough\, and powerfully persuasive. A powerful piece of advocacy. There is no shortage of European-funded Israeli documentaries making the festival and art-house rounds and angrily putting Israel’s occupation of the West Bank under the microscope but THE LAW IN THESE PARTS  stands out as a paragon.”\n	– Jonathan Robbins\, Film Comment\n“Riveting! There is no mistaking the indignation of the filmmaker’s inquiry into Israeli occupation policy\, but it’s tempered at every turn by Alexandrowicz’s wise\, repeated acknowledgement that there’s no implicating the policies of these men without implicating himself – that is\, without his acknowledging that these laws were written for Israelis.”\n	– Steve MacFarlane\, Slant Magazine\n“It is riveting! More than accomplishes its goal of provoking a discussion about imposing laws on people who have no say in making them.”\n	– Farran Smith Nehme\, New York Post\n“A really fascinating\, meticulous kind of dissection of how the law in the occupied territories came to be.”\n	– Kenneth Turan\, NPR\n“A thoughtful investigation into Israel’s justice system. The film includes some amazing testimony from legal officials who remain steadfast in their discriminatory policies where ‘security comes before human rights.’”\n	– Anthony Kaufman\, Indiewire\n“The film depicts\, graphically and painfully\, how it is possible for the highly educated to impose a system of oppression while remaining under the illusion that what they are doing is compatible with the highest legal principles.”\n	– Nick Fraser\, The Observer (London)\n“An engrossing new Israeli documentary…The film has generated enormous interest in Israel\, screening in more than 100 locations and receiving the prize for best documentary at the 2011 Jerusalem Film Festival. Of course\, the warm reception also underscores a paradox: while many Israelis seem open and even sympathetic to critical examinations of the occupation\, no political constituency has emerged to challenge the creeping colonization of East Jerusalem and the West Bank.”\n	– Eyal Press\, New York Review of Books Online

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Family Diary by Mami
DESCRIPTION:“Usually my husband works until very late every night\, and the kids and I are already bed when he comes home. I felt we didn’t have enough time to talk\, so I began keeping an illustrated diary in which I could share with him what was going on in our lives.  In this diary I would record what we did\, felt\, thought or planned for the future\, etc. When he comes home each night\, he opens the diary and receives some impression of our day and can feel closer to us. Recently\, our five-year-old son began wanting to draw in this diary and join in this communication.” — Mami\nBy sharing a glimpse of Mami’s family’s personal diary with you\, we hope you might be reminded that creativity can enrich any kind of communication or daily activity and  overcome obstacles to intimacy. Maybe you might also be inspired to use your creativity and love in some way to draw closer with the people in your lives. — CRS

SUMMARY:The Atomic States of America (film screening) 1/12
DESCRIPTION:CRS FILM+VIDEO SHOW & TELL invites you to join Shut Down Indian Point Now activist Chris Williams to screen the anti-nuclear documentary “THE ATOMIC STATES OF AMERICA” on Saturday\, January 12\, 2013 at 7 pm. \n“The Atomic States of America\,” by filmmakers Don Argott and Sheena M. Joyce of 9.14 Pictures\, journeys to nuclear reactor communities around the country to provide a comprehensive exploration of the history and impact to date of nuclear power\, and to investigate the truths and myths about nuclear energy.\nTickets are $10 and are available at CRS and online here. \nIn 2010\, the United States approved the first new nuclear power plant in 32 years\, heralding a “Nuclear Renaissance.” But that was before the Fukushima accident in Japan renewed a fierce public debate over the safety and viability of nuclear power.\nFrom the gates of Three Mile Island\, to the cooling ponds of Braidwood\, IL\, the film introduces people who have been on the front lines of this issue for decades: community advocates\, investigative journalists\, renowned physicists\, nuclear engineers\, Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspectors\, and former government leaders.\nBased in part on Kelly McMasters’ book Welcome to Shirley:  A Memoir from an Atomic Town\, about growing up in the shadow of the Brookhaven National Lab on Long Island\, the film explores the health consequences documented by people living in Shirley\, as well as near other nuclear facilities. Shirley\, Long Island\, has been plagued for decades by leaks of toxic nuclear and chemical waste from the National Lab into the aquifer from which the residents unknowingly drew their well water. Their concerns call into question who can be trusted to provide truthful information\, and how much influence the nuclear industry has over the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and its decisions.\nAs the nation stands at the crossroads of a possible Nuclear Renaissance\, The Atomic States of America inspires informed discussion on the safety\, viability and future of nuclear power in the United States.\nGuest speaker Chris Williams is a longtime environmental activist who teaches courses in physics and energy and the environment at Pace University in the dept. of chemical and physical science. He is author of the 2010 book Ecology and Socialism: Solutions to Capitalist Ecological Crisis. Science dept. chair at Packer Collegiate Institute.\nView the trailer:\n	  \nREVIEWS\n“In the wake of the Fukushima disaster in Japan\,The Atomic States of America casts a timely inquiry into the viability of nuclear energy.”\n	-Outside Magazine\n“A stimulating\, well-made piece. A sobering documentary about the dangers of nuclear reactors and a downsized Nuclear Regulatory Commission.”\n	-Hollywood Reporter\n“Reasoned and worth engaging… The film builds a convincing statistical case about cancer and nukes.”\n	-Variety\n“Potent\, emotionally powerful\, and highly revealing\, … does an outstanding job of opening our eyes to the reality of nuclear power. Acutely topical….The Atomic States of America convincingly encapsulates both the history of this allegedly clean source of energy and our collective denial of a potentially looming disaster at our aging sites.”\n	-Sundance Film Festival\n“Exceptionally artistic in its storytelling and vision.”\n	-Bradford Pearson\, Frontrow.com \nAWARDS & SCREENINGS\nScreened at Sundance Film Festival\nOfficial Selection\n	Hamptons International Film Festival\n	Sarasota Film Festival\n	Seattle International Film Festival\n	Dallas International Film Festival\n	Independent Film Festival Boston\n	Philadelphia Film Festival\n	Montclair Film Festival\n	Southside Film Festival\n	Newport Beach Film Festival

SUMMARY:Living A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:Living A Course in Miracles\n	a ten-week course\n	Taught by Rommel Malabanan\n	Wed from 7 – 8:30 pm starting Jan 9\nSingle class $20/ 10-class cards $170\n	walk-ins welcomeRegister online\nCRS is delighted to announce that Rommel Malabanan will begin teaching Living A Course in Miracles\, an ACIM class tailored for people new to the Course\, starting January 9 at CRS! \nIn this class you can learn where the Course came from\, what it is\, what it says\, and how you can have miracles occur naturally in your life. In these ten weeks\, you will read and discuss chapter one of the ACIM Textbook\, practice guided meditations\, do the first ACIM Workbook lessons\, and learn how to receive messages from your own internal teacher.\nRommel has been a personal trainer and boxing coach in NYC since 1996. A former competitive boxer and a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competitor\, he has owned and operated a personal training business and a boxing gym. He was also a former president of a not-for-profit organization helping the people in Atimonan Quezon\, in the Philippines. A strong desire to help people lead more healthy lives led him into the fitness and wellness field. Over the years\, he realized that taking people through workouts was just not enough\, and so during his mid twenties he began searching for more effective ways to help his clients achieve the results they sought.\nAfter years of participating in seminar after seminar\, reading self-help book after book\, he finally realized that it was he himself who needed help the most. Only then\, when he asked for help for himself\, did an appropriate tool for healing appear:  A Course in Miracles. Since he found CRS and began studying the Course there with Yasuko Kasaki in 2011\, he has experienced so many miracles in his life and has dedicated himself to helping others do the same. Through his life coaching practice and his own A Course in Miracles classes\, he hopes you may join him in remembering who you really are and recovering your peace of mind so that you\, too\, may become a miracle worker.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Works from the CRS Collection
DESCRIPTION:CRS is delighted to announce an exhibition of works from its private collection by three female Japanese artists (photographers Miori Inata and Mayumi Nashida and painter Chiharu Nishiyama) who are friends of CRS and widely active in the global art world. The exhibition will be on display from January 22 – February 26\, 2013.\n \n西山千晴 / Chiharu Nishiyama\nChiharu Nishiyama is a painter who has participated in numerous international exhibitions in Europe as well as in Japan. Her inspiration is essentially religious and philosophical. This painting of a unicorn was created by Chiharu specifically for CRS and the beautiful frame carefully chosen to compliment it.\nThrough Chiharu Nishiyama\, we meet the tradition and spirit of the Orient\, and witness a more original\, formative revival. The natural features of Japan that she depicts are neither mere scenery\, people\, nor buildings. They are imbued with the very breath of the spirit and gods that give life to the hearts and minds of the Japanese. \n	— from Paul Ambile’s profile of Nishimura for Art Maison International\nBorn in Tokyo\, Japan\, Chiharu majored in acrylic painting. Her work has won numerous awards including the Joan of Arc Glory Prize at the International Art Festival 2004 Chateau de Blois\, the Côte d’Azur International Art Award at the 2004 Cannes International Arts Festival\, the Avignon Festival award in 2004\, the International Art Exhibition of Contemporary Art Achievement Award 2005\, the Award OASISU International 2006 from Malta Tourism Minister Francis Zammit-Dimetchi\, III Prize exhibition at the Auditorium Maurice label Arts Festival Japan 2007 Monaco from Rainier III of Monaco\, and Winner Le Salon in 2001 2002\, 2003\, 2005\, 2006. She is an officially recognized painter A.M.S.C. 2005\, a Spanish National Prado Museum Foundation member in 2005\, and a Japan International Artists Association member JIAS 2007.\nhttp://nishiyama-chiharu.com\n \n稲田美織 / Miori Inata\nMiori Inata’s photographs have been exhibited widely at galleries in Japan as well as in NY\, NJ\, and Israel. Her work appears in the Harvard University Fidelity Photography Collection and has been published by Random House – Kodansha and by Vogue Japan. She has a B.A. in Art specializing in oil painting and printing from Tama Art University of Tokyo\, Japan and later attended the Southampton College L.I.U. Photography Workshop.\nI take pictures to capture a moment of beauty. I like to take photographs of an object as it appears at the moment. I want to preserve a particular moment\, a moment that will never happen again in exactly the same way. This idea comes from the Japanese “Chado” (the tea ceremony) — the idea that weather\, light\, season and time are changing all the time. All things exist by chance\, yet I believe that they are connected to each other by inevitable coincidences. Therefore\, I appreciate the fact that I can be present at that moment. I have also traveled extensively throughout the world expanding my awareness and catching moments of particular light in different settings. Wherever I travel\, the world in my photography is very quiet and peaceful. I hope people will love the earth more with my photos of the beauty in the world. — Miori Inata \nhttps://www.facebook.com/MioriInata\n \n梨子田 まゆみ / Mayumi Nashida\nMayumi Nashida is a professional photographer based in NYC since 1993. She specializes in photographing musicians\, artists\, and actors. She has shot Aerosmith\, The Rolling Stones\, U2\, Yoko Ono\, Celine Dion\, Yo-Yo Ma\, Tool\, The Strokes\, Bruce Springsteen\, Billy Joel\, James Blunt\, Oasis\, Richard Gere\, and many others.\nPrior to moving to the US\, she worked as creative coordinator for Sony Music\, where it was her job to assemble CD jackets and promotional materials for Sony musicians. While there\, she taught herself photography.\nhttp://mayuminashida.com
