His artistic journey began at a pivotal moment in childhood when he stumbled upon a Spider-Man comic in a toy store. The overwhelming joy and fascination he experienced holding that comic ignited a lifelong passion for art. For over a decade\, Rutter has embraced this calling with unwavering dedication\, knowing deep within that art found him and will remain an integral part of his identity for the rest of his days. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeyond his studio practice\, Rutter extends his creativity to community initiatives\, painting free fridges to bring both color and food to the lives of people in need. His commitment to global outreach led him to spend two weeks painting murals at a schoolhouse in Ghana\, inspiring the children of the village through art. Additionally\, he dedicates much of his time to live painting at various charitable organizations and fundraisers\, supporting causes such as Best Buddies\, The Pens Foundation\, The Ronald McDonald House\, Hope for Ghana\, and more. Through his art and philanthropy\, Rutter continues to make a meaningful impact\, spreading hope and joy wherever his brush touches. https://www.zacharyrutterart.com/ \n\n\n\n\n____________ \n\n\n\n\nAt Eberle Studios we believe in supporting artists and the possibilities of clay as a medium in Fine Art.

Additionally\, he dedicates much of his time to live painting at various charitable organizations and fundraisers\, supporting causes such as Best Buddies\, The Pens Foundation\, The Ronald McDonald House\, Hope for Ghana\, and more.

SUMMARY:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale at The Glitterbox Theater
DESCRIPTION:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale\n\nPittsburgh Sound + Image presents a filmmaker unseen for 40+ years \nJ.T. Vale (James Thomas or\, to his friends and family\, Jim) was a lifelong artist\, obsessive cinephile\, and a fixture of Pittsburgh’s South Side. He started making films as a kid. In his 20s\, he found community in the emerging punk and experimental scenes thriving around Pittsburgh Filmmakers\, then located at 205 Oakland Ave (now an Amazon store.) There\, his idiosyncratic interests crystallized into a distinctive style of constant but subtle\, fluid camera movement\, which J.T. theorized as locking onto the wavelength of the subject being filmed. He was a filmmaker chasing the sublime\, and in works such as “Cindy Vale\,” he achieves it. \nIn between his personal output\, Vale was one of the more in-demand camerapeople in the city. Peggy Ahwesh\, Tippi Comden\, Robert Haller\, and Natalka Voslakov (who wrote that he “knows more about film-making than most of the U.S.A.!”) were just a few of his recurring collaborators. A true maven of cinema povera\, he had an eye for cataloging and dramatizing the oddball characters in his social orbit. And Pittsburgh. His films are so very Pittsburgh\, down to a few square blocks of the South Side. Yet Jim has received little attention in the past 40 years. He passed away in 2010\, and the majority of his prolific filmography is currently lost. Over the last seven years\, we have scavenged Pittsburgh and beyond for any traces of his work\, and we’re honored to be able to assemble a J.T. Vale primer on which we think he would approve having his name. \nDoors at 7:30\, show starts at 8 \nAdvance tickets available here. \nABOUT ESSENTIAL PITTSBURGH \nPittsburgh Sound + Image seeks to redefine our region’s film history with the Essential Pittsburgh series. We acknowledge the depth of creativity which has flourished here by spotlighting vital artists and their films from the 1960s through the 2000s. This landmark series is a continuation of our efforts to celebrate a fuller picture of independent\, amateur\, industrial\, and experimental filmmaking talent\, and to better situate Pittsburgh nationally as a place of rich cinematic history.

SUMMARY:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale at The Glitterbox Theater
DESCRIPTION:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale\n\nPittsburgh Sound + Image presents a filmmaker unseen for 40+ years \nJ.T. Vale (James Thomas or\, to his friends and family\, Jim) was a lifelong artist\, obsessive cinephile\, and a fixture of Pittsburgh’s South Side. He started making films as a kid. In his 20s\, he found community in the emerging punk and experimental scenes thriving around Pittsburgh Filmmakers\, then located at 205 Oakland Ave (now an Amazon store.) There\, his idiosyncratic interests crystallized into a distinctive style of constant but subtle\, fluid camera movement\, which J.T. theorized as locking onto the wavelength of the subject being filmed. He was a filmmaker chasing the sublime\, and in works such as “Cindy Vale\,” he achieves it. \nIn between his personal output\, Vale was one of the more in-demand camerapeople in the city. Peggy Ahwesh\, Tippi Comden\, Robert Haller\, and Natalka Voslakov (who wrote that he “knows more about film-making than most of the U.S.A.!”) were just a few of his recurring collaborators. A true maven of cinema povera\, he had an eye for cataloging and dramatizing the oddball characters in his social orbit. And Pittsburgh. His films are so very Pittsburgh\, down to a few square blocks of the South Side. Yet Jim has received little attention in the past 40 years. He passed away in 2010\, and the majority of his prolific filmography is currently lost. Over the last seven years\, we have scavenged Pittsburgh and beyond for any traces of his work\, and we’re honored to be able to assemble a J.T. Vale primer on which we think he would approve having his name. \nDoors at 7:30\, show starts at 8 \nAdvance tickets available here. \nABOUT ESSENTIAL PITTSBURGH \nPittsburgh Sound + Image seeks to redefine our region’s film history with the Essential Pittsburgh series.
