bau:4 – shadow echo: proof I'm here – is the first collaboration 
of two of its members that the Beacon Artist Union is showing. 
It is also the first artistic union of Peter Iannarelli and Angelika 
Rinnhofer. 
shadow echo: proof I'm here is a visual and acoustic installation, 
which touches upon the sentiments of memory and experience, 
and the assumptions that may be drawn as a consequence. 
  
Iannarelli's audio concept deals with the transitional aspect of 
language 
by examining the powerful phrase "I love you". 
Rinnhofer's visuals are void of details, and so generalize the 
experience 
of human existence. 
  
Angelika Rinnhofer is a photographer whose images question 
historical representation and art historical concepts. Her work 
has been shown and published in Europe and the United States.

Peter Iannarelli uses common items and alters them into artworks 
that can be disquieting and unfamiliar. He has had numerous exhibits 
in the New York area.

1000 Paper Cranes, Children’s Concert and Art Auction

to benefit Children with Cancer in the Beacon Community

On Saturday night, March 19^th a children’s concert and art auction will culminate a three- week fundraising event to help raise money and awareness for children suffering with cancer. All the money will be processed through the Noah Cory Foundation.

Some local children have been inspired to try and help their fellow classmate diagnosed with leukemia. Some of these children were familiar with the story of Sadako, a young Japanese girl stricken with Atomic Bomb Sickness (leukemia). Her wish to recover her health was to be granted after she folded 1,000 origami cranes. She valiantly tried, but her legacy lives on, with millions of children around the world enthused by her heroic story, who send their folded paper cranes to a monument dedicated to her at the Peace Park in Hiroshima, Japan. These Beacon children hope to sell and fold 1,000 paper cranes for $1 each. Once completed, they will string the paper cranes together and send them to the Peace Park..

Another aspect of this event will display the musical talents of our youth. Many hours of practice and time will be presented using a wide range of ages, abilities and instruments, from kindergarten through high school.

The culminating experience will be an art auction featuring many local artists. Their talents have been donated to try and raise as much money as possible for this cause. Art works from the studios of Simon Draper, Harald Plochberger, Angelika Rinnhofer, Chris Albert, Gary O’Connor, Dakin Roy, Hudson Beach Glass, Tom Moore, Kathy Feighery, Gary Jacketti will be available for purchase at a fraction of their original prices. The event will take place at bau, Beacon Artist Union at 161 Main Street in Beacon. The concert will begin at 7 and be followed by the auction. Light refreshments will be served.

Please support this worthwhile cause in any and all ways possible. For more information, please contact Nancy Jacketti at jacketti@optonline.net
