Renowned Chinese Master Artist Cao Yong will be a featured celebrity attending events during Global Entrepreneurship Week in Silicon Valley. Yong’s artwork, recognized globally as a symbol of freedom,peace and tranquil living will be part of the Cleantech Open Gala Fundraising Dinner at the San Francisco Winery on Treasure Island.

华裔著名艺术大师曹勇将作为特邀名流出席在硅谷举行的全球创业周的一系列活动。曹勇的作品,那些被全世界公认的自由,和平与宁静生活的象征的画作,也将成为 Cleantech Open San Francisco Winery on Treasure Island 举办的盛大筹款晚宴的一部分。

 

PALO ALTO, California—October 31, 2014: The CleantechOpen(www.cleantechopen.org), the world’s largest clean-technology accelerator, announced that Chinese artist Cao Yong’s paintings will be featured during an elegant and exclusive Green Carpet VIP Reception and silent auction fundraising dinner in San Francisco on Thursday, November 13, 2014, leading the way to the 9th Annual Cleantech Gala Dinner from 7:30-10:30 p.m. The dinner and Awards Celebration prior, known as the “Academy Awards of Cleantech” will be hosted by comedian Hal Sparks during the Cleantech Open Global Forum.  Sparks, an American actor, comedian, musician and television personality, is best known for his contributions to VH1,hosting E!‘s Talk Soup, the role of Michael Novotny on the American television series Queer as Folk, and as Donald Davenport in Disney’s Lab Rats.

PALO ALTO,加州—2014年10月31日:Cleantech Open (www.cleantechopen.org),世界上最大的 Cleantech的发展和促进机构,宣布华裔艺术家曹勇的画作被特邀参与优雅和独家的绿地毯贵宾招待会以及无声拍卖筹款晚宴,这一活动将于2014年11月13日星期四在旧金山举行,为之后7:30–10:30pm进行的9th Annual Cleantech Gala Dinner 拉开序幕。晚宴和颁奖庆典之前,被称为“Academy Awards of Cleantech”的全球论坛将由喜剧演员哈尔·斯帕克斯(Hal Sparks)主持。斯帕克斯是一名美国演员、喜剧演员、音乐家和电视名人,以他对VH1的贡献闻名,他主持E!的脱口汤,在美国电视连续剧同志亦凡人中演迈克尔·诺沃提尼(MichaelNovotny)并在迪斯尼的美国电视情景喜剧实验室老鼠中饰演唐纳德·达文波特(Donald Davenport)。

Yong, a U.S. citizen, travels the world, capturing stories and events of the moment through his famous paintings. Called Master of Artists by some of his collectors due to his capability of painting so many different styles, many have called Yong a Living Master; he is still alive and the quality of his work is like the Old Master Artists Picasso, Rembrandt, and Van Gogh. He has painted everything from Tibetan caves to favorite San Francisco destinations and is well-known for his remembrance pieces from American events like September 11th, to the earthquake in Sichuan, China. Yong has been honored around the world, including America’s NASA, the White House, Independence Hall, and his art gallery in China, which receives a record-breaking 10,000+ visitors a day.

曹勇是一个美国公民,他周游世界,通过他的著名画作捕捉故事和当下的事件。鉴于他可以画出众多不同风格的能力,他的收藏者将他称之为艺术大师,许多称曹勇为在世名师。他还活着,而他的作品可与老艺术大师毕加索、伦勃朗和梵高媲美。他的题材包罗万象:从西藏岩洞到人们熟知的旧金山景点,以及著名的美国大事件如911的纪念作品,到中国的四川大地震。曹勇荣获了世界各地的奖誉,包括美国国家航空航天局、美国白宫、美国独立纪念馆,他在中国的艺术画廊每天接待破纪录的10000人次。

Cleantech Open is proud to announce that Yong will be flying in from China with his most recently completed painting “Peace,” which has not yet been seen in public. His latest art piece will be unveiled at the Gala Fundraising Dinner, where more than 100 Cleantech Open entrepreneurs and companies from the United States and around the world will dine with CEOs and executives from diverse fields. “Mother nature belongs to all of humanity. It is my hope that my artwork lends a voice to nature and to humanity. We have to collectively and conscientiously stop our destructive encroachment and return serenity to nature. Only peaceful coexistence between mankind and nature surpasses narrow-minded ideologies and is the true salvation for our survival and prosperity. This virtuous circle is our greatest and everlasting contribution to our own existence,” shares Yong.

Cleantech Open 自豪地宣布曹勇将从中国飞来并带回他从未公开的作品,即他最近刚刚完成的画作“和平”。他的最新艺术作品将在筹款晚宴的盛会上揭幕。在晚宴上,超过100个 Cleantech Open 的企业家以及来自美国与世界各地的公司将与不同领域的CEO和高管们共进晚餐。“大自然是属于全人类。我希望通过我的作品带给自然和人类一个声音。我们必须要共同认真地停止我们的破坏性侵蚀,给自然带回宁静。只有人与自然的和平共处会超越狭隘的意识形态,是真正的拯救我们的生存和繁荣。这种良性循环,是对我们自身存在的最伟大的和永恒的贡献。”这是曹勇与我们的分享。

The Global Forum Awards Celebration will be the highlight and culmination of a year of global competition. This year, more than 150 American and international cleantech startups are vying for the top honors. The day will start with a champagne toast with all attendees, start-ups, investors, and government and industry leaders, followed by a keynote that kicks off a morning of technology demonstrations on four stages surrounding the expo area. Attendees can also take in an entrepreneurial speaker panel, an afternoon keynote, final judging on the main stage, alumni testimonials, and cleantech market outlooks from Cleantech Open sponsors. Emcee Hal Sparks will host the final Cleantech Open awards ceremony,

This year’s Global Forum is set in two excellent venues. Day One presentations and judging will be held at the Hilton San Francisco Financial District. On Day Two, the event expo, live presentations and final judging will be showcased at San Francisco’s historic Treasure Island Administration Building. This exclusive and elegant event will include a silent auction produced by DOME Entertainment & Consulting in conjunction with the Cleantech Open, in which over 20 of Yong’s paintings will be available for viewing and purchase, among other silent auction items.

今年的全球论坛设定在两个优秀的场地。第一天的介绍和评审将在希尔顿旧金山金融区举行。第二天的展会活动、现场演示以及最终评审会将在具有悠久历史的旧金山金银岛行政大楼举行。这一独家而优雅的活动将包括由Cleantech Open主办、DOME娱乐与咨询公司操作的无声拍卖会,会上超过20幅曹勇的画作将与其他无声拍卖作品一起供与会者观赏和购买。

Since its founding in 2005, the Cleantech Open has established itself as the leading force for accelerating clean-technology entrepreneurs. Of the more than 865 companies that have participated in the Cleantech Open Accelerator in the United States alone, nearly half have gone on to raise external capital now totaling in excess of one billion dollars. Sparks will be on hand to announce this billion-dollar milestone for the Cleantech Open organization. The event will feature innovative entrepreneurs, investors, business leaders, and strategic partners that have helped Cleantech reach this milestone, and Sparks will be there to honor the Cleantech Open and its award winners with his own comedic style.

自2005年成立以来, Cleantech Open 已成为加速清洁高科技创业者的主导力量。在美国就有超过865家公司参加了 Cleantech Open 活动,近一半已经在筹集外部资本,现在总计超过十亿美元。斯帕克斯将在现场为 Cleantech Open 组织宣布这个十亿美元的里程碑。本次活动将展现帮助 Cleantech科技达到这一里程碑的创新的企业家、投资者、 商业领袖以及战略合作伙伴。斯帕克斯将用自己特有的喜剧风格来授予荣誉给Cleantech Open的获奖者们。

Rex Northen, executive director of the Cleantech Open shared, “We are thrilled that comedian and actor Hal Sparks willbe on hand to recognize the accomplishments of the best of the best this year at our annual awards. We recognize that Cao Yong’s artwork represents excellence internationally and we are honored that he will be unveiling hislatest work “Peace” here at our Cleantech Open gala just weeks before he and his new painting will be honored at the Great Hall of the People’s Republic ofChina in Beijing, the White House of China.”

Cleantech Open 的执行董事雷克 诺贞(Rex Northen)说,“我们非常高兴能请到喜剧演员哈尔·斯帕克斯来我们的年度大奖会上为我们的最佳成就获得者亲自颁奖。我们知道曹勇的作品代表了国际上的最佳水准,我们非常荣幸他将在我们的 Cleantech Open 的晚会上为他的最新作品“和平”揭幕。数周之后,他和他的新作将在被称为中国的白宫的中华人民共和国人民大会堂中荣耀现身。”

Within the United States and in 33 countries internationally, the Cleantech Open has set up a network of thousands of business leaders, technologists, government officials, investors, service providers, partners and entrepreneurs, united with an intense focus on energy management, environmental solutions, carbon reduction, energy assessment legislation, sustainability and energy consumption policies and many more facets of clean technology. “Cao Yong’s artwork with its intricate detail of nature, oceans, and a healthy, clean environment truly depicts what we at Cleantech Open strive to create through our mission: a better world with a clean environment that we can pass on to the next generations,” acknowledges Northen.

.

Cleantech Open 开放在美国以及国际上33个国家建立了联络数以千计的商界领袖、技术专家、政府官员、投资者、服务商、合作伙伴和企业家的网络,联合了强烈关注能源管理、环境问题解决方案、节能减碳,节能评估立法以及可持续发展和能源消耗的政策和清洁科技的方方面面。诺贞说:“曹勇的作品以其对自然、海洋和健康、洁净的环境的复杂细节而著称,描绘了一个我们Cleantech Open正通过自己的使命力争打造的世界:一个拥有干净环境的更好的世界,让我们可以传给下一代。”

ABOUT CAO YONG

One of the most celebrated living artists in the world, Cao Yong was born in China in 1962 and is now a US citizen, found peace and consolation in drawing at age five, and often skipped meals and pawned his clothes to buy art supplies. At eleven he began studying with a noted artist in Beijing and received his BFA in 1983. He lived for seven years in Tibet, including a now-legendary year studying prehistoric cave paintings and creating artwork while living alone in a deserted mountain cave, which resulted in his first one-man art show in Beijing in 1989. Yong was recognized as Japan’s most honored muralist and was extolled as “an artistic genius of our time.” The artist’s most prolific out pouring of work began when he arrived to the USA in 1994, first in New York, and then California. Pouring his talent into oil and canvas to depict scenes he has experienced around the world, Yong has become one of the most collected living artists in America and his paintings have been exhibited in prominent museums and art galleries worldwide,and even in New York’s Times Square on NASDAQ billboards.  Some of his most famous paintings include“Freedom,” a tribute to 9/11, “We the People” and works of art featuring European, Eastern, American, Mediterranean, Tibetan and other exciting locales.Yong is celebrated daily within his own art gallery built in his honor in Beijing. Each of his detailed works of art are zealously welcomed worldwide and sold and distributed in over 200 galleries globally. Yong now aims to bridge East and West in his paintings and to create harmony throughout the world, making it a better place for all to enjoy.  “Cao is now a wealthy painter of romantic visions of California, Hawaii and the Italian coast, having remade himself in three countries by mustering physical endurance, resourcefulness and a classic immigrant’s willingness to adapt.” ~The Los Angeles Times

Donald Saddler, a dancer and choreographer whose career lasted more than 60 years and embraced opera, television, movies, ballet and Broadway, where he won two Tony Awards, died on Saturday in Englewood, N.J. He was 96.

His death, at the Lillian Booth Actors Home of the Actors Fund, was confirmed by Kate Irving, a family friend and daughter of the dancer and actress Maria Karnilova, who in the 1940s, along with Mr. Saddler, was an original member of Ballet Theater, the company that became American Ballet Theater.

 

From early in his dancing life, when he joined Ballet Theater and became lifelong friends with Ms. Karnilova, Jerome Robbins and others, and into his 80s and 90s, when he and Marge Champion danced together weekly in a Manhattan studio, Mr. Saddler occupied a place among the leading figures in American dance.

A dancer who eschewed gaudiness of movement and who, like Fred Astaire, put his height and slim build to elegant use, he rose to become a soloist for Ballet Theater and made his Broadway musical theater debut in 1947 in “High Button Shoes,” performing a tango with Helen Gallagher.

More than half a century later, in 2001, he appeared in a revival of Stephen Sondheim’s “Follies,” playing a retired vaudevillian and doing a ballroom dance, “Danse d’Amour,” with Ms. Champion.

“I would see him on the street, in his 80s, and I once asked him, ‘How do you stand so straight?’ ” Donna McKechnie, the dancer, choreographer and Tony-winning actress, said in an interview on Tuesday. “He said, ‘I do Pilates three times a week.’ So I signed up.”

Mr. Saddler had a résumé of remarkable breadth. On the opera stage, he directed and choreographed “Die Fledermaus” for the Washington Opera in 1989. He choreographed “Aida” in Dallas, “La Périchole” for the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and “The Student Prince” and “The Merry Widow” for the New York City Opera. He created ballets for the Harkness Ballet, the Joffrey Ballet and the Cincinnati Ballet.

 

In 1958, he adapted Sherwood Anderson’s classic collection of connected tales, “Winesburg, Ohio,” melding movement, music by Genevieve Pitot and spoken dialogue into a so-called dance drama that was performed — he was part of the cast — at the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts.

“I feel that what I ought to dance about is what is different about being an American,” he said of the project in an interview with Time magazine.

Mr. Saddler choreographed movies including “April in Paris” and “By the Light of the Silvery Moon,” with Doris Day, and “The Happy Hooker,” starring Lynn Redgrave. He choreographed multiple Tony Awards broadcasts. And he worked in theater on and off Broadway, at the New York Shakespeare Festival in Central Park, in London, at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in Ontario (now simply the Stratford Festival) and in American regional theaters.

Among his more than a dozen Broadway credits are “Milk and Honey” (1961), “The Robber Bridegroom” (1975) and a 1983 revival of the Rodgers and Hart musical “On Your Toes.”

 

As such a varied list of credits indicates, he was known for his adaptability, as well as his attention to detail, especially in presenting period dance, as exemplified by his Tony-winning work in the 1971 revival of the frothy 1920s musical “No, No, Nanette.”

“I don’t have a set vocabulary of movement,” Mr. Saddler told The Toronto Star in 1991. “I do new research for every show because I believe you must recreate a period with respect and love. Nothing makes me angrier than people who camp things up or make fun of an era for sheer effect. Just as we take popular dancing seriously today, it was taken equally seriously by the people who danced it then. Each show is like taking a journey to another time and place.”

Mr. Saddler’s first Tony came in 1953 in his debut as a Broadway choreographer. The show, which opened in February 1953 and ran for more than a year and won a Tony for best musical, was “Wonderful Town,” with music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green.

The book was based on the play “My Sister Eileen,” which was itself adapted from New Yorker sketches by Ruth McKenney about a pair of Ohio sisters who move to Greenwich Village in the mid-1930s. Eileen is a charming innocent who wants to be an actress; Ruth is an aspiring writer who is more savvy and hard-boiled and baffled by her younger sister’s ability to attract attention. Mr. Saddler’s coaching helped the film star Rosalind Russell deliver a performance as Ruth that earned her a Tony.

“His ballets capture perfectly the raffish individualism of life in the Village and strengthen the performance in a number of ways,” the critic Brooks Atkinson wrote of Mr. Saddler in The New York Times. “Although the ballets are animated pieces of theater in their own right, the best thing about them is the skill with which they help to portray the ragtag and bobtail street life of the old Village and satirize the bizarre forms of revelry that manage to destroy the sobriety of Manhattan. Like the authors, composer and lyric writers, Mr. Saddler is a full-fledged collaborator.”

Donald Edward Saddler was born in Van Nuys, Calif., on July 24, 1918. His father, Elmer, was a landscape designer. His mother, the former Mary Elizabeth Roberts, was of Cherokee descent. The youngest of 12 children, Donald started dancing to regain strength after a bout of scarlet fever, and as teenager danced in the chorus of MGM musicals.

He recalled that it was his first dance teacher, Nico Charisse, who pointed him toward ballet; in his first class, Mr. Saddler met Tula Ellice Finklea, who would later marry their teacher and become the dancer and actress Cyd Charisse. He was in New York and a member of Ballet Theater, by 1939. He served in the Army in Alaska during World War II.

Mr. Saddler, who has no immediate survivors, was a favorite choreographer for generations of hoofers and director or choreographer of numerous tributes and memorials to show business figures, including Jule Styne, Richard Rodgers and George Abbott.

“He had a great sense of showmanship, but he was never a show-off,” Ms. McKechnie said. “He believed in all that show business stuff, that you’ve got to go out there and kill ’em, that you’ve got to have a plot, that you’ve got to build the number. But he was someone who had great respect for the music, and he was story driven.

“Too many people over-choreograph, but he had no ego that way. He would always go for the simple gesture that best expressed the character in the moment or the heightened moment in the music. I really felt when I worked with him that he was someone I could trust, that he was there to help you do the work.”
