SUMMARY:Ethel with Robert Mirabal
DESCRIPTION:Continuing a deeply successful six-year collaboration inspired by ceremonies dedicated to the Sun\, ETHEL and Robert Mirabal\, Native American musician\, instrument builder and three time GRAMMY® Award winner present their next evolution of the cross-cultural concert experience. The inspiration this time is Water as the embodiment of Spirit\, and its essential role in Life on Earth.

SUMMARY:NJ MoCA Art Conversations: The Intersection of Technology and Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:The world of contemporary visual art is often intimidating\, challenging\, and seemingly unapproachable. To help break those perceptions and barriers\, New Jersey Museum of Contemporary Art will present “Art Conversations\,” a series of three scholar-led panel talks that will provide context and insight into what defines contemporary art\, its transformational trends\, and its relevance and impact on society. The highly credentialed and charismatic United Nations journalist Alexandra King will moderate conversations with art critics\, collectors\, curators\, technology producers\, and artists. The program will target new audiences comprised of the public\, students\, and informed art lovers wanting a richer understanding of these topics. The series will encourage public thought and discussion with an open Q&A at the end of each panel. \nThis panel will focus on \n\n\nthe influence and\nincorporation of breaking technologies on contemporary art.\n\nPanelists:  \nZachary Kaplan is Executive Director of Rhizome\, the leading born-digital art institution\, an affiliate of the New Museum in NYC. Rhizome commissions\, presents\, and preserves art engaged with digital culture. This year\, the organization was awarded a historic grant from the Andrew W.

Kaplan has been at Rhizome since 2013\, and before that at the Renaissance Society\, Chicago\, and MOCA\, Los Angeles. \nAtif Akin (1979\, Turkey) is an artist\, curator\, lecturer and designer. As an artist his work aims at contemplating politics through artistic practice. His work in digital media is informed by his interest in the mutational and transformational implications of the digital world. Recent projects tackle topics such as natural disasters and energy politics; radioactivity and nuclear mobility; multi-culturism within the context of war; and how society’s catastrophes turn into spectacle. Although his work can take many forms\, moving fluidly between various media\, he frequently employs information architecture and data visualization in his presentations\, which can be site-specific or public installations as well as in screen-based formats including online works.  He has curated projects including PixelIST: Festival for Electronic Arts and Its Subcultures as well as the exhibition Uncharted: User Frames in Media Arts at Santralistanbul Museum\, a show of artworks employing the use of large-scale digital and interactive media. He has written numerous articles including: Creativity and Connectivity; Alice in Wonderland; Art and Politics; and Data Driven Boredom\, among others.

He runs his own design studio\, PaganStudio in NYC. \n\n\n\nAndrew Demirjian is an interdisciplinary artist who creates alternative relationships between image\, sound and text that challenge contemporary media conventions. He uses computer programming\, surveillance\, data gathering and motion tracking to twist perceptual relationships between the senses. The pieces take the form of interactive installations\, generative poems\, audiovisual performance and single channel videos. His work has been exhibited at The Museum of the Moving Image\, Eyebeam\, Rush Arts\, the White Box gallery\, The Newark Museum and many institutions internationally. The MacDowell Colony\, Puffin Foundation\, Artslink\, Harvestworks and the New Jersey State Council on the Arts are among some of the organizations that have supported his work.

SUMMARY:SUSAN AMONS: WILD SIDE Maine Monoprints
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: February 11 from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. | Wilson Hall Auditorium\nOpening Reception: Thursday February 11\, from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m.\nFree and open to the public \nSusan Amons lives on a rare and beautiful peninsula in southern Maine. The estuary forms the western boundary\, and the ocean stretches out to the east. Every day\, Susan observes unusual birds and animals living in this preserved pocket of wildlife habitat. Marsh hawks\, eagles\, ibis\, geese\, mink\, and fisher cats\, are some of the species included in her repertoire of study. In late summer\, Susan camps in the solitude of the north woods. The lake supports it’s own unique selection of species including; salmon\, trout\, moose\, otter\, and loons. Susan loves to sit on a rock in the stream and paint. \nEach winter\, Susan returns to the studio to work on large-scale prints inspired by images that she records from nature throughout the year. To develop her monoprints\, she creates a group of mylar shapes which she inks\, prints\, and re-inks; building up color layers and altering spatial relationships. A series of related work evolves from the printed collection of cut out shapes. What Susan enjoys most about this process\, is that she is able to pursue multiple variations of her original idea. Susan’s final prints are multiple and varied\, brilliantly frontal\, or receding in space like the animals themselves\, a memory\, mysterious\, and wild by nature. \nSusan Amons holds a BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art\, and has received 21 artists’ fellowships from the Vermont Studio Center\, The Women’s Studio Workshop in New York\, and the Heliker-LaHotan Foundation in Maine. Susan is a member of the prestigious Peregrine Press in Maine\, and the venerable National Association of Women Artists in New York. Her work was chosen for the acclaimed exhibit\, “Maine Women Pioneers”\, at the University of New England in 2013. Her two recent solo exhibits include; “Natural Vision”\, at the Liriodendron Mansion in Maryland\, 2014\, and “Tidal Edge”\, at The Courthouse Gallery\, in Ellsworth\, Maine\, 2015. \nSusan Amons is represented by numerous galleries on the east coast. Her work is included in many public collections including; The Portland Museum of Art and The Farnsworth Art Museum in Maine\, The New York and Boston Public Libraries\, The Indiana University Library\, The University of New England Art Gallery\, Colby\, Bates\, and Bowdoin College Collections in Maine\, and the Zimmerli Museum Collection at Rutgers University in New Jersey. \nFor more information\, please see susanamons.com

SUMMARY:Bolshoi Ballet: Jewels
DESCRIPTION:  \nMusic: Gabriel Fauré (Emeralds)\, Igor Stravinsky (Rubies)\, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (Diamonds)\nChoreography: George Balanchine \nThis opulent triptych was inspired by Balanchine’s visit to the famous jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels on New York’s Fifth Avenue\, celebrating the cities and dance schools of Paris\, New York and St. Petersburg\, each bound to its own precious stone.

SUMMARY:Madeleine Peyroux
DESCRIPTION:“The only thing that matters is the song\,” says singer-songwriter Madeleine Peyroux. That conviction along with a ‘one of a kind’ voice\, has carried the Jazz artist from busking on the streets of Paris\, all the way to mainstream recognition. Through intensely distinctive renditions of old classics and modern tunes by the likes of Leonard Cohen and The Beatles\, Peyroux has proved to be an uncannily insightful ‘interpreter’ with her consistently impeccable choice of material. Peyroux’s new album\, The Blue Room\, sees the genre-blending singer reworking some landmark musical gems\, in a repeat collaboration with longtime Peyroux producer Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell\, Walter Becker\, Tracy Chapman\, Herbie Hancock). The result is a sophisticated album that rather than just ‘crossing over’\, seamlessly fuses musical styles together to create an entirely new sound. \nThe Blue Room started life as Klein’s re-examination of Ray Charles’s classic\, Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music\, but soon moved away from being strictly an homage to that album. “Madeleine and I decided to branch out to other songs we love\,” explains Klein\, so alongside tunes from the original ABC Paramount project such as “Bye Bye Love\,” “Born To Lose\,” “You Don’t Know Me” and the anthemic “I Can’t Stop Loving You” are Randy Newman’s “Guilty\,” Warren Zevon’s “Desperadoes Under The Eaves” and John Hartford’s “Gentle On My Mind.” “Ray’s ‘cultural landmark’ album has always been a part of me\,” says Larry Klein\, “…the project naturally came to mind with Madeleine as a part of it.” \nFor The Blue Room Larry Klein has again called upon the talents of award-winning engineer/mixer Helik Hadar as well as stellar musicians Dean Parks\, Larry Goldings\, Jay Bellerose and David Piltch. To this ensemble however\, the celebrated producer has added an inspired orchestral element in the shape of Vince Mendoza’s engaging string arrangements (Joni Mitchell\, Robbie Williams\, Björk and Elvis Costello). Mendoza’s masterful string orchestrations perfectly complement Madeleine’s quest for open musical exploration. The sometimes eerie\, often sparse arrangements prove the perfect canvas for Peyroux’s musical palette and seem to effortlessly blend with her voice. \nPeyroux has come a long way from the streets of Paris to the word’s grandest concert halls and collaborating with the some of the world’s finest musicians. Still\, where other artists might rest on their laurels and bask in the glory of countless gushing reviews\, Peyroux continues to fearlessly explore new territories. The charmingly humble artist who ‘didn’t have any expectation of becoming someone that could make a dent in the outside world.’ has done just that. \nFor more information visit: www.madeleinepeyroux.com \nVideo: https://vimeo.com/59662338

SUMMARY:The Wayne D. McMurray School of Humanities and Social Sciences Distinguished Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:In 2004\, the first public exhumation of a mass grave in Andalucía\, Spain took place in the province of Cádiz\, bringing to light the buried history of repression under the Franco dictatorship. Professor Cate-Arries’ lecture focuses on the oral testimonies she has recorded with family members of the civilian victims who were “disappeared” by the regime in 1936. She examines how private mourning practices\, personal objects of memory\, and stories once told behind closed doors preserved a collective memory of the losers of a civil war who decades ago fought for the democratic ideals embraced by today’s Spain.

SUMMARY:Lakota Sioux Dance Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Experience Native American culture through authentic dance\, music and ceremony when the Lakota Sioux Dance Theatre performs Ċokata Upō! Ċokata Upō! – Come to the Center is the story of the birth\, death and rebirth of a nation. The performance represents an experience the New York Times describes as a “…great sense of theatricality…a visual treat…more than a spectacle…A ritual celebration that made dancing a ceremonial act.” This three-part work celebrates the culture of the Lakota people. Set against a backdrop of spectacular video imagery and accompanied by live traditional\, sacred\, and courting songs\, narratives and creation stories are woven into the fabric of the performance. Under the direction of choreographer Henry Smith\, the company includes some of the most highly acclaimed championship performers of the Sioux Nation.

SUMMARY:Cowboy Junkies
DESCRIPTION:It’s been 30 years since the Cowboy Junkies led by siblings Margo\, Michael and Peter Timmins on vocals\, guitar and drums respectively\, plus Alan Anton on bass —performed their first\ngigs at various Toronto clubs. For three decades\, the Cowboy Junkies have remained true to their unique artistic vision and to the introspective\, quiet intensity that is their musical signature\, creating a critically acclaimed body of original work that has endeared them to an audience unwavering in its loyalty. \nJoined by multi-instrumentalist Jeff Bird\, the core Cowboy quartet returns to Monmouth for a retrospective of their three decades playing (and listening to) all manifestations of popular music. Expect an evening that runs the gamut from the folky intimacy of the band’s earliest efforts\, to an always surprising selection of covers (Springsteen\, Stones\, Talking Heads\, The Cure) — although to be sure\, simply delivering “the expected” has never been part of the Cowboy Junkies playbook.
