SUMMARY:Les Paul Thru the Lens
DESCRIPTION:“Les Paul: Thru the Lens” explores the life of pioneering musician and innovator Les Paul. Through a series of 24 photographs\, visitors will see a chronicle of Paul’s life\, career\, and achievements: his early performances as Red Hot Red\, his marriage to and work with Mary Ford\, his explorations in the recording studio and with the electric guitar\, and of course his long and influential performing career. \nCollectively\, the images provide an intimate view into the life of an icon of the music and sound products industry and remind us that\, through it all\, music—and the industry—are inseparable from the people who make it. \nThis traveling exhibition is courtesy of The Les Paul Foundation. \nThere will be a special musical tribute concert\, “The Les Paul Experience” presented in conjunction with the exhibition on May 12 at 8PM in Pollak Theatre. \n**Exclusive Offer**: Les Paul in His Own Words\n\nBy Les Paul and Michael Cochran\nForward by Paul McCartney\nHard cover 368 pages\, 9 1/2” x 12” x 1 1/2”\nSpecial Offer – $50 + tax (Retails for $75)\n \nThe charm of this book is “listening” to Les Paul tell his story. Michael Cochran captures Les’ way of telling stories and Les had plenty to tell. This large\, beautiful book encompasses the fascinating life of the musician and inventor who seemed to live forever. Les takes the reader from his childhood in Waukesha\, Wisconsin through his adventures in St. Louis\, Chicago\, LA\, New Jersey and New York. Les explains how he developed the solid-body guitar and endless recording techniques that changed the world of music. \nThe high quality color prints and photos include many of Les Paul\, his extensive guitar collection\, musician friends\, his inventions and his home recording studios in LA and New Jersey. \nPre-order and pick up the night of show or anytime Monday-Friday 9am – 5 pm at the Pollak Box Office.

SUMMARY:Jacob Landau: The Prophetic Quest
DESCRIPTION:An art exhibition that explores a range of works over a long career\, created by the American artist\, humanist\, and teacher Jacob Landau. The exhibition features a selection of some eighteen works. All are from Monmouth University’s extensive collection of Jacob Landau’s work\, comprising over 300 prints\, drawings\, and paintings. The collection was gifted to Monmouth University in 2008 by the Jacob Landau Institute of Roosevelt\, NJ. \nReception: Thursday\, April 13\, from 4– 6 pm \nAbout Jacob Landau:\nBorn in Philadelphia in 1917\, Landau launched his career as an illustrator\, winning national prizes at age 16 and a scholarship to the Philadelphia College of Art. He went on to have over sixty one-person shows\, featuring a wide range of drawings and paintings. The recipient of numerous awards\, including Guggenheim and National Arts Council grants\, many of his works are featured in permanent collections\, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. A master teacher\, he retired as professor emeritus at New York’s Pratt Institute. In 1996\, he was awarded an honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts by Monmouth University. \nFor Jacob Landau “art enables us to see the world whole and undivided.” And at its center lies the artist’s desire for justice in this world. The current exhibit reveals that his entire career was driven by such a quest from an early work with conte crayon\, “Two Women in Market” and his “Mine Strike at Auchel” through an “Einstein” portrait\, as well as watercolor pochoirs of “Malachi” and “Isaiah” who call for justice and whose bold colors and sinuous lines derive from their respective stained-glass windows that Landau created for the Keneseth Israel Synagogue in Elkins Park\, PA (just outside Philadelphia)\, two of ten windows\, each towering 5’x20’\, that flank the prayer hall. \nLandau’s Isaiah and Malachi watercolors exhilarate\, even as they confront the viewer. We realize that the prophet does not predict the future but reveals the present\, witnessing injustice\, condemning it\, and proclaiming alternatives—actions. Clearly\, Isaiah’s words pierced the artist’s heart: “Seek justice\, relieve the oppressed.” \n And we see Landau’s struggle in his quest as a citizen of our world and as an artist in a series of sketches and preparatory drawings for his portrait of Malachi as well as those of Amos\, Hosea\, and Jeremiah. We are also given an image of a world without justice\, Ezekiel’s Vison of Dry Bones\, and a glimpse of a promised new world to come\, New Jerusalem. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Tell Pharaoh
DESCRIPTION:Produced by DUNBAR REPERTORY COMPANY\, Tell Pharaoh is a concert drama about Harlem\, our nation’s foremost Black community\, from the time of slavery all the way through the 21st century.

Turner\, Contemporary Dramatists \nDirected by:\nMark Antonio Henderson\n\nStarring:\nDarrell Lawrence Willis\, Sr.\nLorraine Stone\nKirk Lambert\nTakia Clayton\n\nFeaturing singers:\nJanet Clarke Graham\nJazmin Graham\nViveca Graham
