Exhibit showcases colors of rainbow

assau County Museum of Art’s newest exhibit aims to bring the colors of the rainbow to life, Executive Director Charles Riley said at the opening Friday. “A rainbow comes, but is only brief,” Riley said. “We know what makes a rainbow, we know how to explain it, yet we look at it with a kind of wonder. It doesn’t come all the time, and most wonderfully, it doesn’t last that long.” The Roslyn Harbor museum’s latest exhibit, “True Colors,” uses many me-
diums, styles and techniques to capture the emotional expression of color, ranging from portraits by Henri Matisse and “St. Sebastian” by Titian, considered the original champion of color in art, to neon sculptures by Deborah Kass and sparkling metals in multiple shades by Miya Ando. The full range of color’s magic is on display in this exuberant show of over 100 works from the nineteenth century to this moment’s hottest talents. Riley said to hang some of the larger pieces in the exhibit in Gallery No. 2, the walls were rebuilt and reinforced to manage the weight of the colorful abstracts.
Colors are on display in the Nassau County Museum of Art's newest exhibit spanning centuries of works. Children who visit the exhibit will also be given colorful safety glasses for the room of neon works, including the popular spiral work by Kass. The show also features a color woodcut on cream paper by Wassily Kandinsky, a pastel by Joan Mitchell, an infamous Campbell’s Soup work by Andy Warhol done in all black, the “In the Garden of Love” series by Robert Indiana, a bright 3D work by Sylvia Stone and a color screenprint by Roy Lichtenstein.
“This show is not available on your mobile devices,” Riley said. “That cannot be reproduced in a photograph, that cannot be described — the words cannot do it. Bring your friends, bring the people you know who love art and love color, because color is very special.” Reach reporter Amelia Camurati by email at acamurati@theislandnow.com, by phone at 516-307-1045, ext. 215, or follow her on Twitter @acamurati.

‘Deconstructing the Beatles’ again BY JA N E LL E CL AUSEN The Gold Coast International Film Festival will be bringing back a bit of ‘Beatlemania’ to the North Shore starting this Wednesday, with the return of the ‘Deconstructing the Beatles’ series and a ďŹ lm premiere in November. The Bow Tie Square Cinemas in Great Neck was scheduled to show “The Birth of the Beatles,â€? which recounts the rise of the international phenomenon, on Wednesday, July 25, at 7:30 p.m. “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!â€?, analyzing the Beatles’ early hits in 1963, will be shown on Aug. 22 at the same time and place. Both ďŹ lms feature the series’ creator Scott Freiman, a composer and Beatles expert, who breaks down the composition and production techniques.

people who don’t know much about the legendary group,� said Caroline Soroko, the festival di-

ages – not just those who remember the Beatles’ heyday.â€? The Long Island premiere of “Magical Mystery Tourâ€? during the 8th Annual Gold Coast International Film Festival in November will cap o the series. The exact date has not yet been announced. The Gold Coast International Film Festival ďŹ rst screened the “Deconstructing the Beatlesâ€? series last year, with ďŹ lms analyzing the albums “The White Album,â€? “Revolver,â€? “Sgt.

England, 1959. Free-spirited widow Florence Green (Emily Mortimer) risks everything to open a bookshop in a conservative East Anglian coastal town. While bringing about a surprising cultural awakening through works by Ray Bradbury and Vladimir Nabokov, she earns the polite but ruthless opposition of a local grand dame (Patricia Clarkson) and the support and affection of a reclusive book loving widower (Bill Nighy). As Florence’s obstacles amass and bear suspicious signs of a local power struggle, she is forced to ask: is there a place for a bookshop in a town that may not want one? Based on Penelope Fitzgerald’s acclaimed novel and directed by Isabel Coixet (Learning to Drive), The Bookshop is an elegant yet incisive rendering of personal resolve, tested in the battle for the soul of a community.

THE BOOKSHOP
PRETTY WOMAN ON BROADWAY
DECONSTRUCTING THE BEATLES: YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
England, 1959. Free-spirited widow Florence Green (Emily Mortimer) risks everything to open a bookshop in a conservative East Anglian coastal town. Based on Penelope Fitzgerald’s acclaimed novel and directed by Isabel Coixet (Learning to Drive), The Bookshop is an elegant yet incisive rendering of personal resolve, tested in the battle for the soul of a community.
It reinvented a genre, swept the world off its feet, and made millions believe in happily-ever after. And now, one of the most beloved romantic comedies of all time is coming to Broadway as a new musical!
From “Love Me Do” to “I Want to Hold Your Hand”, Deconstructing the 1963 Beatles traces the Beatles remarkable story through the year of 1963 as they create their first hit singles and albums, including “Please Please Me” and “She Loves You”.
