SUMMARY:B. Scott Crawford Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Presentation #2\n“A Wise man will Find us to be Rogues by our Face”: Physiognomy and Portraiture \nJohnathan Swift’s observation about the relationship between character and physical features sums up an important comment of Western art. From the Ancient World into the 21st century\, to varying degrees\, the belief that physical features indicate clear and even irrefutable clues as to a person’s character influenced portraiture. Exploring Ancient statues and a host of Medieval and Renaissance paintings\, as well as Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales\, the impact this pseudo-science\, physiognomy\, had on art and portraiture will be highlighted. Taking this overview as a starting point\, Santi di Tito’s late 17th century portrait of Machiavelli will be examined through this physiognomic lens in order to better understand di Tito’s posthumous representation of the controversial philosopher and gain insight into Machiavelli’s work The Prince. This original research will provide both an understanding of physiognomy and a new understanding of at least one reason Machiavelli has been viewed as scandalous. \n  \n\nB. Scott Crawford holds a master’s degree in history from Old Dominion University and has an extensive background in education\, having taught at the high school and college levels\, as well as serving as the social studies coordinator\, K-12\, for a Virginia school division and as the Director of Education for the Museum of Western Virginia and then Taubman Museum of Art in Roanoke\, Virginia. Scott currently serves as President & CEO for Virginia 811. He has been with the Notification Center since December 2016\, serving as Director of Operations and then Vice President prior to moving into his current position in July 2020.\n \n\nThis event is free and part of our 2025 Lecture Series which will focus on Blacksburg history\, community\, and culture plus intriguing history and arts topics in general.

SUMMARY:B. Scott Crawford Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:RESCHEDULED from February 20 to February 25 \nPresentation #1\nThe Selfie: From Stone Age to Digital Age \nThe Digital Revolution has launched an unprecedented communications revolution. Individuals have an ability to now promote themselves at a global level at any time and in a matter of seconds. The selfie has emerged as the latest means for individuals to project images of themselves for public viewing\, but now\, through digital technologies\, in a democratic manner. No longer is portraiture reserved for the wealthy; access to a ubiquitous mobile phone and a free social media account can allow an individual to share self-images with audiences possibly larger many traditional portraits ever reached! This presentation will explore the art behind the preservation of images of individuals\, spanning cave art to Instagram. Through this journey over time\, we may very well find that the selfie is not as much about megalomania as it is about simply magnifying a timeless component of human nature. However\, with the introduction of artificial intelligence\, we will end with a reflection of how AI may\, through training\, be embracing this nature as well! \n  \n\nB. Scott Crawford holds a master’s degree in history from Old Dominion University and has an extensive background in education\, having taught at the high school and college levels\, as well as serving as the social studies coordinator\, K-12\, for a Virginia school division and as the Director of Education for the Museum of Western Virginia and then Taubman Museum of Art in Roanoke\, Virginia.

SUMMARY:Market Jam at the Museum
DESCRIPTION:Join us in February for the “Reed Tradition String Band” with Russ Boyd on banjo\, Bill Blevins and Chris Via on fiddle\, and Matt Peyton on guitar. This session will honor the Reed Family of Giles County. Henry Reed captured many local fiddle tunes\, and Alan Jabbour recorded his playing for the Archive of Folk Culture at the Library of Congress. His son\, Dean Reed\, attended many of our Market Square Jams. He passed away this summer at age 95 and our old time community misses his playing and singing very much.

SUMMARY:Main Gallery Exhibit: Jesi Pace-Berkeley
DESCRIPTION:Many people recognize Jesi as our community’s preeminent portrait artist. But her artworks span various genres beyond portraiture\, including \, still life\, landscape\, seascape\, floral\, abstract\, and nonobjective.\nFaces & More is a representation of Jesi’s creations and teachings over 53 years. Her collection is so vast and impressive that we are showcasing her retrospective work in two locations. The new Y Community Gallery will exhibit her larger portraits while The Blacksburg Museum & Cultural Foundation gallery at The Alexander Black House will highlight her smaller scale work\, most of which has never been publicly displayed.\nJesi’s passion for art and education over the years has led her to teaching in Montgomery County schools\, leading multi-day Plein Air Watercolor workshops\, and planning enrichment courses overseas in France\, where she guides participants through the composition of stunning scenes from Avignon\, Aix en Provence\, Arles\, Aigues Mortes\, Uzes\, Nime\, and more.\n\nExhibit runs November 30 – February 7\n

SUMMARY:Blacksburg en Blanc
DESCRIPTION:BLACKSBURG EN BLANC MAKES ITS RETURN THIS SUMMER! \nSome of you may remember the annual Blacksburg en Blanc picnic that The Artful Lawyer\, A Fine Gallery Inc. first hosted in August 2014. A few days later\, The Blacksburg Museum & Cultural Center opened its newly renovated doors. The gallery and museum had many partnerships along the way as well\, so it is only fitting that we celebrate the museum’s 10-year anniversary with a relaunch of this fun event! The concept is simple and will be the same as in years past. \n\n\nWe provide:\n\na professional tent on our lawn with cafe lighting\ntables\ntablecloths\nchairs\na few table decorations (we also encourage your creativity in bringing your own!)\nmusic entertainment\na silent auction – proceeds benefit the various programming that our foundation brings to our community\nwe will also provide trash cans and indoor restrooms\n\nYou provide for yourself or your group:\n\nfood\nalcoholic and/or non-alcoholic drinks\ncutlery\nnapkins\nthink about a picnic in the woods – you pack it in\, you pack it out\n\n\n\nWe hope to see as many people as possible from the picnic’s early days and to introduce new people to what we hope will be an annual event. \n\nTICKET PURCHASE DEADLINE: EXTENDED TO AUGUST 4 – we may be able to fit more in after this date over the phone. You may call us at 540-443-1602 \n\nThe Dinner’s Early History\nThe Dîner en Blanc (“Dinner in White” in French) concept began in Paris in 1988 when François Pasquier invited a group of friends to an elegant outdoor dinner at the Bois de Boulogne\, asking them to dress in white so they could find each other. It is now a worldwide annual event spanning six continents. Diners are required to provide their own food\, tables\, chairs and tablecloths. Only a select number of participants who have previously signed up are made privy to the location the day of the dinner\, and generally converge in an iconic urban location.
