FROM THE EDITOR
Changes S
KERITH GABRIEL
o let me tell you about how I spent the weekend out of a job. On Friday, I was notiďŹ ed that I no longer was employed by Newspaper Media Group, the Cherry Hill-based company that purchased Philadelphia Weekly in 2016 just months before I took over as editor in October of the same year. It was a good run with NMG, who’s management admitted candidly that the publication is a different beast than the community weeklies its owner Rich Donnelly and publisher Perry Corsetti are passionate about. The paper’s eclectic stronghold with Philadelphia’s counterculture and the fact that it’s anything but a traditional community newspaper, I was always told, was intriguing to Donnelly, even if he didn’t always agree with the contents. But this isn’t a tale of woe, instead of hope and excitement of what’s to come as PW was sold to Dan McDonough, owner of – well, quite frankly a lot to be honest – but most notably Philadelphia-based brand ďŹ rm Woden and as of Monday, PW’s retained an HQ address in the City of Brotherly Love and yours truly as its old, yet new editor. I’ve had lengthy discussions with McDonough, who revealed his love affair with PW and his aspirations of purchasing it years earlier. His goal is to produce a sharper print product visually, one that you will actually be able to ďŹ nd each Thursday when PW hits the streets. I respect the fact that McDonough is a newspaper man through and through, having cut his own teeth with national publications and being in the business on some capacity since he was 19. I told him about the numerous emails from devout readers who mention they can’t ďŹ nd the paper, or ask for a subscription just so they can ensure they receive a copy. On the top of the list of things that will improve under new management is our distribution, with a goal of more in-house drops and honor boxes you’ll want to stick your hand in. This change isn’t happening overnight, in fact there’s no rush in the immediate to change anything. The news you’ve come to expect will remain the same and you can read our daily
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
content on PhiladelphiaWeekly.com. If you’re looking for where you can ďŹ nd a copy in print, there is still a graphic called Where You Can Find Us located right on our homepage. However over the next year, you’ll see a few changes, a sharper version of our website, a modiďŹ ed rebrand to our current look in print, but perhaps more importantly the growth of the paper and an increased page count. In its heyday, a minimum page count for PW was 80 pages. Right now we’re printing and distributing at a little over a third of that. Our goal, understanding the state of newspapers, advertisers and the marketplace, is to have our minimum at half that. May still sound small, but if you read us regularly, you’ll physically feel the difference in an additional 20 pages ďŹ lled with watchdog journalism, arts and entertainment news that’s uniquely PW all wrapped in sharper, more stunning visuals. I don’t have to tell you that journalism, the kind that holds a ame to people in power, the kind that reveals the human side of the everyday person, the kind that exposes you to your ever-changing city, community and neighborhood (for better or worse) is vitally important. If it wasn’t, there wouldn’t be people trying equally as hard to suppress it. This is your alternative news feed, Philadelphia, and I’m excited to steer it into new waters. Personally, it’s important that I thank the ownership and management of NMG for the freedoms our editorial staff was permitted to deliver award-winning journalism over its two-year run. I also thank them for having the foresight to not let a good thing die and pass it on into what I believe are extremely capable hands. I want to thank my NMG colleagues, particularly the editors and writers of the Northeast Times, South Philly Review, The Star and series of Bucks County-based publications, of which we all shared the same umbrella. Sharing a newsroom with dedicated journalists forces you to remain on your A-Game, and that room... I’ve had many ďŹ rsts, but this is probably the ďŹ rst time I can say I have had my employment terminated, reinstated and have never been more excited about the future. The goal is to do what needs to be done to not only keep PW as the recognizable watchdog it’s become, but to transcend it across all mediums. It’s a shared vision between editor and owner and collectively, the passion to see this through is there. Have questions? I’ll answer them. Hit me up at kgabriel@phillyweekly.com.

Fun First For Philly ALL IMAGES ARE BY ANDREA CANTOR
It’s been on display since late October, but this week was the first opportunity to check out the complex, yet awe-inspiring wonderland of artwork from world-renowned artist Rina Banerjee and her North American debut exhibit, Make Me a Summary of the World. Banerjee’s work frequents art houses in Asia and Europe but this is the first time her work has been shown on this side of the pond, with a home here in Philadelphia at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts – and in conjunction with the San Jose Museum of Art. Banerjee’s work has routinely been large-scale installations and sculpture sourced from materials all over the world, and this exhibit is no different. It’s running at PAFA through the end of March 2019, but we think the holiday season is the perfect time to take some time and let Banerjee’s artwork serve as a perfect think piece of just how diverse of a planet we inhabit.

Protesters held up signs denouncing methodology during a alt-right rally on Independence Hall that saw hundreds of anti-fascists supporters and organizations on hand to counterprotest.
Not so peaceful Fights and excessive police force at pro-Trump ‘We the People’rally BY ANDREA CANTOR
W
hen the right-wing rally called We the People was planned for Philly, fear that hate was arriving in droves to the the City of Brotherly Love. But that’s not how events turned out on Nov. 17 outside Independence Mall. Contrary to expected numbers, only two dozen or so conservatives showed. However, leftist counter-protesters came in the hundreds, representing all walks of the movement. Despite reports of peaceful demonstrations by the two groups, there were a number of clashes between the two sides as well as with the police. Four people were arrested during the day, including an Antifa member who sustained a head wound following a ďŹ ght with an altright protester.
129(0%(5
In video captured by Philadelphia Weekly – which can be viewed on our Facebook page – the Antifa man was held down by multiple police ofďŹ cers, who placed a foot his head and held it to the cement even with his visible head injury and small pool of blood beside him. After getting up from the group, the caucasian man started yelling at police and was carried away. Sustaining head injuries, it was conďŹ rmed the counter protester was transported to a hospital. While the Philadelphia Inquirer reported “no indication of attendance by neo-Nazis, white supremacists, or members of hate groups such as the Proud Boys or Three Percenters,â€? the video shows identiďŹ ed alt-right Proud Boy Alan Swinney clad in riot gear. Other video by PW shows police ramming bikes into two women protesters and a video of a cop pushing a person yelling at Swinney.
“[I am protesting] the injustices of Black people, minorities, everybody. I am scared of the cops. They kill us on camera and get away with it,â€? said Richard Scott of West Philly. “So I’m down here for that. I have kids, I have family members, so that’s why I am down here today speaking on all injustice.â€? The day had high police presence with law enforcement on foot, car, bicycle, motorcycle and even horse. “An alternative to police based on community principalsâ€? were the handful or so Antifa members, identiďŹ able by face coverings, sunglasses and hand radios used for intercommunication, an Antifa member named only as “Karaâ€? told PW. “We are not here to incite anything, incitement doesn’t do much,â€? said Kara, who disapproves of comparisons to police due to the anti-fascist militant group’s beliefs in law enforcement corruption. “Think of it this way, a security guard at a bar or at a club isn’t there to incite violence, but if someone becomes violent towards them or to a patron, they are going to be violent back, because it’s their job. We’re security guards. We are not here to start anything, but if someone else starts something then we are going to keep people safe.â€? The incident had additional resonance being just weeks after the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting that left 11 dead. Counter-protester Steve Newman, an English professor and president of the labor union at Temple University, shared what it meant to protest the alt-right as a Jewish man. “What I was taught, being raised as a Jew, my father [said] the verse in the Torah that is repeated most often is ‘be kind to the stranger, because you were strangers once in Egypt,â€? said Newman. “That is the ethical precept I try to live my life by and that my wife and I try to teach our kids. You have a group on the other side that seems invested in persecuting the stranger, that for whatever reason for their own sadism or their own insecurity seem to enjoy, it’s not even a matter of need, it seems to be this weird pleasure in making other people feel scared or feel frightened or feel persecuted, and we simply can’t tolerate it.â€? However, there were people whom the left were there to defend in full support of the altright movement and stood on that side of the protest. A self-identiďŹ ed Jewish man named Ryan, whose last name was omitted for privacy, held an “I Back the Blueâ€? sign, showing his support for the police, and wore a U.S. cap and an Israel Defense Forces sweatshirt. “The reason why I am wearing an IDF shirt is to not only show conservatives who might be thinking that there is the Jewish conspiracy and stuff like that, that not all Jews are liberals,â€? said Ryan. Additionally, the We the People rally was the ďŹ rst pro-Trump event for Desmond, a 27-year-old African-American man from West Philadelphia. “I’m interested in meeting like-minded people, like-minded conservatives. It’s hard to
ďŹ nd that in a city that’s mainly Democrat,â€? said Desmond. “There are Black conservatives.â€? While Desmond did not vote in the 2016 election, he said Trump has his vote for 2020 because he is a “great deal breakerâ€? and has increased jobs. Desmond was unwilling to accept that decreases in unemployment were already in motion during the Obama administration. In terms of the racist afďŹ liations of Trump’s base, Desmond said it is “hard to judge from the outside.â€? He also said he feels like an “outsiderâ€? in the Black community. “I do see where they are coming from, but Black people, we’ve stuck together long before the Civil Rights movement. That’s the reason we all think the same and agree with each other,â€? said Desmond. “I want to break past that, because we should have the capacity to think on our own. I should have my own voice, you should have your own voice, and we shouldn’t have to ďŹ ght about it.â€? Daniel Rivera, a Latinx Trump advocate said he supports the focus on increased borders. “I believe there is a difference between legal and illegal immigration, and I believe that legal immigrants should be supported,â€? said Rivera, a New Yorker. When asked about the Dreamers in America, immigrants who were brought to the states illegally as minors, Rivera said borders need to be secured before giving safeguards to them. Otherwise it would be an “endorsementâ€? and “incentiveâ€? for illegal immigration. “Because of our lax immigration policy in the past, we are in a difďŹ cult situation now dealing with the consequences of that,â€? explained Rivera. Many of the Trump protesters continued to say they were not bigoted or there to cause harm. “We are for equal rights for everyone. We are here for the constitutional rights of “We the people,â€? said Paul, last name withheld. “We are here for equality under the law.â€? However, he made sure to emphasize that he meant “equal rights for all U.S. citizensâ€? when asked about border separations. His wife Erica added xenophobic statements about the health of immigrants, which would include the many asylum seekers. Immigrants eeing persecution are allowed to apply for asylum status even if they did not enter the country through an ofďŹ cial port of entry. “They are not only coming in illegally, they are also coming in with illnesses and stuff that can get people to be sick over here,â€? said Erica. “They are walking through dirty water, they don’t have water on their way here. They are bringing coughs and colds and other things into our country trying to make us sick. So if they are coming here legal that’s ďŹ ne, but not illegally.â€? Q TWITTER: @ANDREAJCANTOR

Viagra’s Sex Pill Monopoly Is Over Since 1993, three brands have dominated the men’s sexual performance market. Now there’s a fourth, Vesele. And the difference is amazing‌ SAN DIEGO − A new sex pill is set to take the spotlight with the Viagra patent about to expire. Since it’s not a drug, it’s something very different, it won’t require a perscription and is priced just under a $1 a dose.
This is what makes Vesele so different. It provides the blood stream with nitric oxide which cause arteries to relax. The patented accelerator speeds up this process even more.
The new pill called Vesele is part of a new class of performance enhancers for men, which work on the body and mind, supporting ďŹ rmer and harder erections
The result is an increase in hardness and maintenance and frequent sex when it is taken daily.
Formulated with a special compound known as a blood ow boosters, Vesele can transport its active ingredients in higher levels into the blood stream, where it begins to work.
With the conclusion of latest human clinical use survey trial, Vesele is now being offering in the US. And regardless of the market, its sales are exploding.
The patent pending ingredient increases nitric oxide production, initiating a process known as vasodilation, which causes arteries and vessels throughout the body to relax. This allows blood to ow to penis and genitals, promoting stronger, harder erection which last longer. But what makes Vesele so remarkable, and what these other sex pills can’t do, is that a small portion of this blood ows to the brain, which creates feelings of intense arousal. In laymen’s terms, users become incredibly excited and turned on. This is why the makers of Vesele say their pill has worked so effectively in human clinical use survey trial. It increases blood ow to the two most important organs for great sex, the penis and the brain.
The Brain Erection Connection Until now, medical researchers did not fully understand the brain-erection connection. It has now been made clearer with the data backing Vesele. When both are supplied with a constant blood ow, men are harder and ďŹ rmer for longer...and have higher sex drives. “Most of the research and treatment methods for men’s sexual failures have focused on physiological factors and have neglected the emotional ones. For the leading sex drugs to work, like Cialis and Viagra, you need visual stimulationâ€? explains Dr. Henry Esber, from the company who created Vesele. According to research published by the National Institute of Health, 50% of men taking these drugs stop responding or can’t tolerate their side effects...and on top of that they spend $25 per pill and it doesn’t even work half the time.
Great Sex At Any Age
Men across the country are eager to get their hands on the new pill and according to the research, they should be. In the trial above, men taking Vesele saw a staggering 45.1% improvement in erection hardness from baseline over a four-month period. Their erections also lasted twice as long. These same men also experienced an astounding 27% increase in the desire for sex (libido/sex drive) and an even greater improvement in overall satisfaction and ability to satisfy their partners.
Higher Absorption into the Blood Stream Vesele is made up of three specialized ingredients: two vasodilators and a patented absorption enhancer often called an accelerator. The FDA considers all to be safe. Research shows that with age, many men struggle to produce an erection ďŹ rm enough for penetration. And although there are many theories as to why this happens (including a loss in testosterone) one thing is certain, inadequate blood ow is virtually always to blame. That’s why sex drug manufacturers focus on blood ow, it makes your erection hard. But what’s more surprising, and what these manufacturers have failed to consider, is that lack of blood ow can also kill your sex drive. That’s because blood supplies energy for the brain. This energy is required for creating brainwaves that cause excitability and arousal. Studies show that nitric oxide stimulates the entire cardiovascular system, including the arteries that lead to both the brain and penis. The higher concentration of the ingredients in Vesele combined with the accelerator ensures that this process continues to work over time.
Expiring Patent Opens the Door to a New Sex Pill: Vesele is a new pill that cost just $1 a dose and does not require a prescription. It works on both body and mind to increase arousal and erection hardness.
The sexual beneďŹ ts of Vesele will start to show as its ingredients build up in the system over time. This is why many men take it every single day.
The Same Study Shows Positive Effects on Women In the same outstanding study referenced throughout, Vesele was also shown to have a surprising effect on women too. That’s because the same arteries and vessels that carry blood and oxygen to the brain and genitals are the same in men and women. “In our study, women taking Vesele saw a stunning 23.7% and 20.4% improvement in arousal and sex drive over baseline. You can imagine why some couples are taking Vesele together. Everything feels better. Everything works better. Everyone performs better.
A New Frontier of Non-Prescription Sex Pills With daily use, Vesele is helping men (and women) with their sex lives and overcome sexual lets downs without side effect or expense. Through a patented accelerate, Vesele’s formula is better absorbed into the bloodstream, resulting in remarkable improvements in erection ďŹ rmness and hardness. And with better blood ow, users also experienced sexual feeling they haven’t felt in years.

In the meantime, Shepard connected with one of the outreach workers from Philadelphia’s Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services who have been fanning out under the Frankford Avenue and Emerald Street bridges for a couple of months, trying to link people with housing and treatment options. The city aims to clear the Emerald Street encampment by Jan. 15. “I can tell that they’re very genuine people,�
Shepard said, adding he would stay in touch with the person he spoke to in case he decided to come back for treatment. “I started drinking at the age of 8 years old,â€? Shepard said. “I manage my PTSD with heroin. It keeps me calm in general and keeps me more loving because I’m not in pain. I’m not a bad person.â€? Wanting the public to see them as human beings rather than “junkiesâ€? was something people echoed under both bridges. People also voiced worries about where they would go when the encampments were emptied, some individuals saying they weren’t ready for treatment and the tent cities were like a family to them. But Mayor Kenney has issued an Opioid Response Executive Order with 100 major goals that has clearing major encampments at the top of the list. Earlier this fall, the city closed encampments under the Tulip Street Bridge and along Kensington Avenue near the intersection with Lehigh Avenue. At a press conference Friday, Kenney expressed optimism, saying he was very pleased about the progress so far. “We’re trying to get as close to treatment on demand for folks,â€? said Timothy Sheahan, director of homeless services for the Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services, taking a break from his outreach work under the Frankford Avenue bridge Wednesday. “So both inpatient beds if they’re interested in coming inside to inpatient treatment and also outpatient medicated assisted treatment as well.â€? Sheahan said they had been able to get about 15 people into shelters and about 12 people into treatment from both bridges. “We’re just really listening to folks around what their needs are and ‌ what it is that they would like to see happen for themselves and trying to create those options,â€? Sheahan added. Nonetheless, many people under the bridges expressed skepticism about the city’s efforts. “I just think it’s messed up,â€? said a 31-yearold woman who goes by “Gâ€? under the Emerald Street Bridge. “Yeah, obviously we’re drug addicts, but it’s like one big family. We actually look out for each other. They act like they’re going to offer us shelter and treatment. They don’t offer shit. It’s like yeah we live under a fuckin’ bridge but we don’t bother nobody.â€? “It’s Kensington,â€? G continued. “It’s a goddamn bridge. I don’t think it should be such a big deal. ‌ Wouldn’t the community rather us be here than on their front steps or using their car mirrors to shoot up?â€? Raymond Johnson, 54, said he had been living under the Emerald Street bridge for eight months. He thought the city should start rehabbing some of the abandoned buildings in the area to house people experiencing homelessness. “All they gonna do is send people to another place to do the same thing,â€? Johnson said about the encampments closing.
Clutching a new pair of socks and a package of crackers he had gotten from outreach workers, Miguel Montanez, 42, said through a translator that he came to Philadelphia from Puerto Rico and has been homeless for two years. He had been living under the Frankford Street bridge for about a week. He said he didn’t know what he would do the next day when the city cleared the encampment, that he would probably just move over to Emerald Street. Nicholas, 35, who only wanted to use his ďŹ rst name to protect his family, was visiting the Frankford encampment looking for his friend. He didn’t ďŹ nd him. Nicholas said he, himself, had experienced homelessness for many years when he was using drugs heavily. He camped in McPherson Square Park. Now he lives in a studio and is in recovery. “Nobody wants to be out here – I mean I guess different strokes,â€? Nicholas said. “But nobody wants to be out here living under a bridge and freezing and starving. You know drug addiction is a hell of a thing. It takes you places I don’t think anybody ever thought they would be. “This is painful to look at,â€? he added. “This is all pain and suffering. ‌ People aren’t out here having a good time just getting high and partying.â€?

* * ) On finding out you were cast as Matilda: Jemma: When I found out I’d be playing the role of Matilda, I couldn't breathe. I was running in circles jumping up and down, screaming. But then I thought I need to stop screaming so I don’t hurt my voice. I couldn’t believe my ears, I was speechless, I didn’t know what to say. Ellie: I was actually pretty calm so I was the opposite. I don't really scream but when I found out I was sitting on my Ottoman on my knees and I starting jumping up and down and smiling alot, I was so excited.
What's life like as an actress when you're also trying to be a kid? Jemma: I definitely miss my friends a lot but I know that I am doing something that’s worth it. I love performing and I know this is what I want to do with my life so I am taking the time to be the best Matilda I can be, because who know where it can go from here. It’s tough to balance work and school, but I have great teachers. Ellie: You have to make sacrifices. I know that this is what I want to do with my life and I understand that it's going to be difficult at times, but I love being on stage, it makes me happy, so I make sure I do all the things I need to do to keep my dream going.
Does it get easier playing the same character night after night? Jemma: It gets easier. My mom attends every show and tells me that with each show it gets better and better as it goes along. Memorizing the lines was really hard at first, but I practiced and it goes easier and to do it everyday, now it just comes naturally. I mean I’m riding a desk on stage and singing, so it’s important to remember.

On friendship: Jemma: We didn’t know each other at the auditions, but our moms met up when we found out that we were both playing Matilda and we had a playdate at Ellie's house. We sang and played with her American Girl dolls, which I have so it was great to get to get to know her. Ellie: Meeting Jemma has been great. I know we're going to be friends after this because we share so much in common and are both sharing living out our dream.

The he(art) of the matter
Berthe Morisot is at the Barnes, but do you know Camille Claudel at the Rodin? BY ANDREA CANTOR
L
ast month, controversy stirred at the Barnes Foundation centered around the naming of its latest exhibition “Berthe Morisot: Woman Impressionist.â€? In a piece by the Philadelphia Inquirer, people claimed misogynistic undertones for its gender classiďŹ cation of an established French painter, Berthe Morisot (1841-1895), asking “Would an exhibition of Monet ever be called called ‘Claude Monet: Male Impressionist?’â€? In the weeks following the debate, it would seem the appropriate time to highlight another 19th century French impressionist, a woman sculpturess whose legacy lives on the Parkway at the Rodin Museum. While you may not be familiar with the work of Camille Claudel (1864-1943), you may have unknowingly seen her artistic prowess in the hands and feet, arguably the hardest parts to sculpt, in many acclaimed pieces by renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin (1840-1917). “Morisot and Claudel faced a number of similar challenges and struggled to be recognized as female artists in 19th century France. Sculpture — working with clay, wax or marble with one’s hands — was a harder ďŹ eld for a woman to gain acceptance in than painting,â€? said Jenny Thompson, curator for the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which oversees the Rodin Museum. “Claudel had a ďŹ ery temperament, unlike Morisot’s more restrained, perhaps balanced, character. Morisot’s family, particularly her husband, Eugene Manet, was far more supportive of her work than Claudel’s family, which tolerated her art-making but perhaps never understood how ďŹ ercely it drove her.â€? With growing importance being placed on revisionist feminist history, Claudel like many other talented women obscured by history is ďŹ nally gaining the recognition that she could not achieve in life. Last year, the MusĂŠe Camille Claudel opened in her hometown of Nogent-sur-Seine, France. Claudel was also
129(0%(5
depicted in ďŹ lms, such as the 1998 ďŹ lm Camille Claudel starring GĂŠrard Depardieu and Isabelle Adjani, 2013’s Camille Claudel 1915 with Juliette Binoche, and 2017’s op Rodin. “I hope that this is not just a trend,â€? said Brooke Davis Anderson, museum director of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, reexamining history’s constructed narratives of women artists. PAFA’s current exhibit, Make Me a Summary of the World, showcases contemporary sculptress Rina Banerjee, an American immigrant of the post-colonial Indian diaspora whose works touch upon global themes and intersectional feminism. A student, an assistant, a muse, a lover, Claudel’s memory and noted artistic mastery has been relegated to adjectives in association to Rodin over the years. Her other descriptor has been crazy, or an “Abandoned Schizophrenicâ€? as stated by Travel Tips in France, since she was institutionalized at an asylum for the last 30 years of her life. Claudel’s story typically starts with her meeting Rodin at 19 when he was gathering artists for his larger commissioned works in the 1880s, but it really begins at the age of 12 when she ďŹ rst experimented with clay sculptures. Recognizing the young Claudel’s talent, her father, Louis-Prosper Claudel, sent her pieces to be evaluated by sculptor Alfred Boucher, a friend of Rodin’s. Boucher would later introduce the two. But before that fateful meeting, Claudel would study sculpture at the AcadĂŠmie Colarossi on the Rue de la Grande Chaumière. The prodigy could not attend the most prestigious École des Beaux-Arts, since the school did not accept women at the time. After graduating, the young adult would work with Rodin, already a distinguished artist in his 40s. Tasked with the difďŹ cult hands and feet, Claudel worked on several of Rodin’s commissioned pieces, most notably the 200 ďŹ gures in Gates of Hell. “For several years in the mid-1880s, Rodin paid Claudel to work as an assistant in
his studio and she contributed elements to several of his pieces in that period. It was an expected and understandable practice at the time,â€? explained Thompson. “Claudel in the 1880s was a ďŹ ercely independent and ambitious woman looking out for her own rights — hence the ‘contract’ that she made Rodin sign that did not allow him to take on any other pupils and required him to promote her work.â€? According to the Smithsonian, the signed “contractâ€? entailed that Rodin “accept no other (female) student but she, that he protect her within the artistic circles and that he marry her following a trip to Italy or Chile. This contract would never be followed up.â€? Rodin was living with Rose Beuret, one of his earlier models. The two were companions for over 50 years and married days before Beuret’s death. After having an abortion, Claudel called off her affair with Rodin. Determined to make it on her own as an artist, Claudel tried to get her own commissions and exhibit pieces. But being a woman artist trapped in established master’s shadow posed a major obstacle in attaining a spotlight for her own. Moreover, many of her pieces connoted a sexual nature, some nude sculptures, and were censored by the state and press, according to National Museum of Women in the Arts. Convinced that “Rodin’s gangâ€? would steal her work, Claudel began destroying her own work. Only 90 of her pieces remain today. Showing signs of mental instability, Claudel’s family did not tell her that her father died. Just days later, her brother, who was a famous writer, and mother had her committed where she spent the rest of her life. She never sculpted again, refusing art supplies in the institutions. “I am in no mood to be deceived any longer by the crafty devil and false character whose greatest pleasure is to take advantage of everyone,â€? Claudel is quoted with saying of Rodin, whom she often referred to as “The Ferret.â€? “After their relationship collapsed in the 1890s, she grew bitter and perhaps paranoid, making many claims toward Rodin that were probably driven by desperation and illness,â€? said Thompson. As far as I know, he never knowingly ‘stole’ any of her work and on the contrary evidence suggests that he deeply respected her talent and sought to help her even after they had broken up.â€? Philadelphia Rodin Museum holds two of Claudel’s original solo works, including “Head of a Laughing Boyâ€? (Modeled 18911892; cast 1925) and “Head of a Slaveâ€? (Modeled c. 1887; cast 1925). The museum’s description of the two heads read: “Jules Mastbaum purchased these bronzes as the work of Auguste Rodin, but recently they have been attributed to Camille
Claudel, who worked closely with Rodin in the 1880s and 1890s. Plaster versions of both heads were signed by Claudel, but the bronzes made from them were mistakenly stamped ‘A. Rodin.’â€? In addition to a book in its library, the museum also mentions Claudel in a collaborative piece called “Brother and Sister.â€? The museum’s description of “Brother and Sisterâ€? reads: “This charming sibling group has a complex and layered history. The seated, adolescent-aged sister is by Camille Claudel, the talented artist who was Rodin’s pupil, assistant, muse and lover. Rodin modeled the young child and combined the ďŹ gures, creating a lighthearted sculpture that evokes the harmony and collaboration which on occasion marked the artist’s passionate relationship.â€? While many have blamed the “passionate relationshipâ€? for Claudel’s demise, there have been debates over her diagnosis and the nature of her commitment. “Modern experts have looked at her records and she really was very ill,â€? said MusĂŠe Camille Claudel curator CĂŠcile Bertran said to the Guardian in 2017. However, in an earlier Guardian article from 2003, it stated that her 1913 medical certiďŹ cate stated among her fears of “Rodin’s gangâ€? that she was also “badly dressed and absolutely ďŹ lthy.â€? In an article by the Irish Medical Times, it references the certiďŹ cate’s evaluation of Claudel as a “systematic persecution delirium based on false interpretations and imaginations.â€? However, the article also mentioned that medical examiners had declared her ďŹ t for discharge on a number of occasions, but her family refused to release her. According to the Irish Medical Times, over Claudel’s 30 years in the asylum, Paul visited her ďŹ ve times, her sister once and her mother not at all. Last year, the museum celebrated Rodin’s centennial and acquired Claudel’s “The Waltz,â€? which was on loan for the exhibit. When asked whether Claudel’s works have been properly highlighted, Thompson pointed to the newly opened MusĂŠe Camille Claudel and the refurbishment of the Claudel gallery at the MusĂŠe Rodin done a few years ago in France. “[She] is much easier to study and appreciate now and a more balanced view of her work in relation to Rodin is emerging,â€? Thompson stated. “The situation will always be complicated because Claudel destroyed a good deal of her own work and her family destroyed much of the correspondence and documentation concerning her life. Our view of her will always be incomplete due to these losses.â€? Q

ne of the city’s most popular parks – if not the far and away most popular – is about ready to pop. With color, of course. And lights. And sounds. The scent of moisture in the air and a whole new season of cinnamon and clove and cocoa and mint. Kids grasping parents by the hand as they stare straight up at the seemingly never-ending stretch of a light- and decoration-adorned tree, dwarfed only by the sense of wonder it instills. You’ll ďŹ nd all this and more at Rittenhouse Square Park on Tuesday, when the Friends of Rittenhouse ďŹ nally ick the lights on for this year’s holiday season of shopping and sharing and wondering just how it could be that there’s so much ugliness in the world when there’s also so much beauty. But now is not the time for that. Now is the time to revel in that feeling of beauty. Of love. Next year can wait a few more weeks. So gather up the kiddies - or channel the one hiding under all those layers of worry and responsibility and the crushing certainty that all the pain and suffering ultimately mean nothing - and remind yourself why we all decided life was worth living in the ďŹ rst place.

Do we really even need to write anything? It’s Kevin Freakin’ Hart for crap’s sake, a Philly boy born and bred who hit the big time and made good. Plus, he’s hilarious. Plus, he was in Get Hard, which is a movie so terrible that it might be amazing. We’re honestly still not sure. But all that aside, Kevin Hart is a supremely funny, supremely talented guy who manages to give Philly a good name. Even if you don’t like him, we can probably all sup-

3OH!3 & Emo Nite
Philly has some truly amazing restaurants. Seriously, as a food city it manages to keep pace with places like New York, despite its smaller stature, and thanks in large part to a committed community of creatives who eat, drink and (sometimes) sleep exciting new endeavors. And while afternoon tea isn’t exactly the most exciting or enticing prospect, when it’s at one of the city’s best restaurants, it’s smart to stop and take notice. Tea from Rival Bros. Tasty ďŹ nger sandwiches. And a pleasant afternoon you won’t soon forget. Sounds pretty good to us. | 1pm. $45. Fork. 306 Market St. opentable.com/

SAVAGE LOVE
Stressfest DAN SAVAGE
I
’m a recently divorced single mom and full-time student. I’m really beginning to hurt ďŹ nancially and have decided to start working as an escort. I am at a point of great emotional stability, happiness, and conďŹ dence – all reasons that led to my decision – and I’m surrounded by people who love me and won’t judge me. (Not that I will be telling most of them.) I’ve been seeing a man who I like, but I’ve made it clear that I am not committed to him and can see him only once a week. I’ve explained that I don’t think I can ever be monogamous and I do not want a relationship. He has struggled with this and told me early on he was in love with me. We have AMAZING sex, and I think this causes him to have a hard time understanding why I don’t want a relationship. I do not want to tell him I am escorting. I feel the fewer people who know, the better. And I don’t know him that well, as I have been “seeingâ€? him for only six months. I know he would want to know, and a huge part of me feels that the right thing to do is be honest with him if I am going to continue seeing him. I also know that cutting him loose would hurt and confuse him, especially without being able to give him a reason. How do I handle this? What is the right thing to do? My site goes live in three days, and what’s keeping me up at night is not how best to verify clients, it’s what to do about the man in my life who I respect and love, even if I am not in love with him. - New To Escorting Let’s set the escorting issue aside for a moment. You don’t want the same things (he wants monogamy and a deďŹ ned relationship, you don’t want any of that shit), you don’t feel for him the way he feels for you (he’s in love, you’re not), and you’re a busy single mom and full-time student – all perfectly valid reasons to end a relationship, NTE. You aren’t obligated to tell him that something you were thinking about doing but haven’t
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
yet done, i.e., escorting, factored into your decision to cut him loose. While I deďŹ nitely think people have a right to know if their partners are escorts, I don’t think people have an absolute right to know if their partners were escorts. So if the sex is really good, and you think there’s a chance you could one day feel as strongly for him as he does for you, and you’re planning to escort only until you get your degree, NTE, you could tell him you want to take a break. Explain to him that you don’t have the bandwidth for a boyfriend just now – kid, school, work – but you’re open to dating him after you’re out of school if he’s still single and still interested. I’m a 30-year-old single monogamist and I recently realized I’m bisexual. I feel much happier. Except I recently crossed a line with a very close friend of mine, a man I’ll admit to having some romantic feelings for. After he broke up with his ex, I started getting random late-night text messages from him. And a couple weeks ago, we hooked up sans penetration. We acknowledged that we both have feelings but neither of us is in a good place. He’s still dealing with the end of his LTR, and I am only just coming out as bisexual. I love this person and our friendship is important to me, but I can’t stop thinking of the possibility of us being together. I’m confused by the timing and I wonder if this is real or just something I’ve allowed to distract me – or both! Also, what would this mean for my bisexuality? I’ve been to this rodeo before – meaning opposite-sex relationships – but what about the part of me I haven’t fully explored? - Between Every Thorn Solitude Yearns You describe yourself as a monogamist – so, yeah, entering into a committed relationship with this man would prevent you from exploring your bisexuality. And the timing feels off: He may be on the rebound, and you’re still coming to terms with your bisexuality. So don’t enter into a committed relationship with him, BETSY, at least not yet. Date him casually and keep hooking up with him, with the understanding – with the explicit and fully verbalized and mutually consented to understanding – that you will be “exploringâ€? your bisexuality, i.e. you’ll be getting out there and eating some pussy.
