The Civil War was fought on our soil; a fight between countrymen, neighbors and brothers. It was America’s bloodiest conflict, but the outcome would determine what the nation would be: an indivisible nation where all men are created with an equal right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Playwright Elizabeth Diggs says, “<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" xsscleaned="color:black;background:#FDFDFD">When I started work on this play more than three years ago, I never imagined that it would take me so deeply into the most important crisis for our country. The terrible reality of the Civil War produced bloody carnage that was unimaginable, but also stunning heroism and sacrifice. I spent time with two men, opposites in temperament, whose genius defined America. And I discovered the awesome story of what they accomplished together. I feel profoundly grateful to SLAC that the play is being produced during the sesquicentennial of the Civil War, while we are reexamining the meaning of that crisis and what it means today.”</span></span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> </span><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" xsscleaned="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black;background:#FDFDFD"> <o:p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"></o:p></span></div>

Associate Professor Kim Martinez developed an educational approach that taught critical and social consciousness to students, while working with community leaders to create murals that would best exemplify the community in which the mural was to be located. The mural project, "Perspective Realia" <span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" xsscleaned="background:white">allowed students the opportunity to create, propose, and implement public art in the form of murals throughout the Salt Lake City area since 2003. The students gained firsthand experience in the challenges involved with implementing their ideas and practices and educating business owners and community leaders. This exhibition celebrates the creative collaboration between students, faculty, and public partnerships.<o:p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">CEDAR CITY</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> - Debbie Drake, Board Member and
Director of Professional Development for the Cedar City Arts Council, will
offer a series of workshops for artists in the visual, performing, and literary
arts over the next three months at the Cedar City Aquatic Center. Drake, who is
a multi-media artist and Business Technology Program Coordinator at the
Southwest Applied Technology College, said, "Many artists have not been
prepared to approach their art form from both the business and creative side,
and therefore wonder why success eludes them."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> The first workshop on Saturday,
February 8 from 10:00a.m. until noon will focus on "How to Write Artists'
and Vision Statements." Artists' Statements are directed toward the
viewing public's understanding of the artist, the work, and the intentions
behind the work. Vision Statements communicate artists' ultimate goals in
working in their field.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> The second workshop on Saturday,
March 8 from 10:00a.m. until noon will address "Creating Artwork as a
Business." Most artists are not prepared to invest time in marketing,
public relations, resource management, and record-keeping, yet most successful
artists report up to 50% of their time is spent in these critical areas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> The third and final spring workshop
will take on Saturday, April 12 from 10:00a.m. until noon, focusing on
"The Critical Keys: Finances and Profit." Drake will take an in-depth
look at costs, inventorying, profit margins, how to price one's expertise, and
strategies for staying in the black on the ledger book.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> The workshops will take place in the
conference room of the Cedar City Aquatic Center at </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2090
Royal Hunte Dr. (phone 435.865.9223). Admission is free to members of the Cedar
City Arts Council; non-members pay $10 per session. Anyone in Southern Utah or
beyond is welcome to attend.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> The
Arts Council Board has recently rewritten its mission statement to focus on
Advocacy, Appreciation, Education, and Support for all artists, arts
organizations, and arts business in Iron County. Toward that end, the
Professional Development series will continue next fall. Drake plans to develop
an Arts Incubator Certificate Program for those who wish to bring their
creative ideas and energies to fruition in the expanding arts scene in Southern
Utah. For further information, please call Debbie Drake at 435.463.1546 or

Six months later, one of its human cargo, a twenty-six-year-old man named Abdul Rahman, was transported and sold in Natchez, Mississippi. According to legends that developed around Abdul Rahman in antebellum America, he made the remarkable claim to the farmer who purchased him at the auction that he was an “African prince” and that his father would pay gold for his return. The offer was refused, and Abdul Rahman did not return to Africa for another forty years. During his enslavement he toiled on the Foster plantation, married, and fathered nine children. His story also made him one the most famous Africans in America for a time, attracting the attention of powerful men such as Secretary of State Henry Clay.</span></div>

Cultural understanding is at the heart of this program. Artists participate as seekers, as cultural visionaries, and as living liaisons to the traditional and contemporary cultural life of Japan. They also serve as connectors who share knowledge and bring back knowledge.

Projects eligible for support can include creative residencies, composition, recording, performances, and other activities that develop new professional relationships and audiences. Projects may include jazz artists investigating forms other than jazz with artists who work in different music genres.</span></div>

A reflection on love, sacrifice, and the creative spirit, this candid documentary explores the chaotic 40-year marriage of renowned “boxing” painter Ushio Shinohara and his artist wife Noriko. Now 80, Ushio still struggles to establish his artistic legacy, while Noriko is at last being recognized for her own art— a series of drawings entitled “Cutie.” Spanning four decades, the film is a moving portrait of a couple wrestling with the eternal themes of sacrifice, disappointment and aging.</div>

This remarkable animated doc traces the unconventional upbringing of the filmmaker Jung Henin, one of thousands of Korean children adopted by Western families after the end of the Korean War. It is the story of a boy stranded between two cultures. Sepia-toned animated vignettes – some humorous and some poetic – track Jung from the day he first meets his new blond siblings, through elementary school, and into his teenage years, when his emerging sense of identity begins to create fissures at home and ignite the latent biases of his adoptive parents. The filmmaker tells his story using his own animation intercut with snippets of super-8 family footage and archival film. The result is an animated memoir like no other: clear-eyed and unflinching, humorous and wry, and above all, inspiring in the capacity of the human heart.</div>

Rocky Braat, a young man with a troubled past, went traveling through India without a plan. There he met a group of HIV positive children living in an orphanage — a meeting that changed everything for him. Rocky left his life, friends, and career to live with the kids. Steve Hoover, his best friend and filmmaker, was unsettled and intrigued by this drastic action. In an effort to find out what compelled Rocky to give up every source of stability in his life, he decided to trace Rocky’s story, following him to India.</div>

When Mr. Fox’s nightly raids on three nearby farms raise the ire of the selfish farmers, he must outwit the men’s increasingly outrageous plans to catch him in this animated adaptation of the Roald Dahl book. As the farmers’ schemes take a toll on his hungry family, Mr. Fox must find a new way to get his paws on the bounty. George Clooney and Bill Murray lend their voice-over talents in this Oscar nominee.</div>

Breathtaking stunts, vibrant costumes, and a compelling score by longtime Ririe-Woodbury collaborator, Jon Scoville, accompany Tandy’s brilliant choreography. The Company is also joined by an array of guest performers that span a multitude of generations. This variety of tantalizing facets create something inspirational for everyone to enjoy.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Tandy Beal's whimsical dance composition and storyline draws from her work internationally as a circus director and choreographer. <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><i style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The New York Times</i></b> has called Tandy, <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">"A choreographer of taste and intelligence - a sure sense of theatre."</b> <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></span><span data-mce-style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Helvetica; color: #444444;" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" xsscleaned="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Helvetica; color: #444444;">In conjunction with the public performances, Ririe-Woodbury presents five student matinees which are open and free to students at all Utah Schools.

Salt Lake City - Utah Museum of Contemporary Art is excited to present the DIY exhibition do it - the longest running, furthest-reaching exhibition ever to take place.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Curated by Hans Ulrich Obrist and organized by Independent Curators International (ICI), do it began in 1993 as a conversation between artists Christian Boltanski and Bertrand Lavier and Obrist himself, who was interested in the idea of an open-ended exhibition format that was flexible enough to transform with each location and enactment. To test the concept, Obrist invited 12 artists to submit instructions which were translated into 9 languages and circulated internationally as a book.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
With more than 50 stops worldwide since the initial exhibition, do it has become the largest collection of instructional works to date. In addition, do it: the compendium (ICI and D.A.P., May 2013) includes instructions by 250 artists including newly commissioned pieces selected by Obrist and ICI. In honor of the publication's 20th anniversary, 84 additional scores have been published.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
do it's presentation is less concerned with notions of reproduction or materiality of the artworks. Rather, this exhibition is about revealing the nuances of human interpretation in its various iterations. Based on written instructions by renowned artists as a point of departure, UMOCA's reenactment of do it is uniquely site-specific to Utah through the engagement with the community and use of resources available locally.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
"Many of the selected works draw on the cultural specificity of Utah as a way to ground the exhibition in themes, iconography, and places that relate to the history and geography of the Beehive State," explains Associate Curator Rebecca Maksym. "In this way, UMOCA is able to play with the generative and accumulative aspects of this ongoing presentation through its own notion of interpretation and reproduction."</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">

I am pleased to share that our online petition - signed by more than 40,000 advocates - helped lead the way to the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) being allocated $146 million for the year.<br />
<br />
Arts Action Fund members successfully prevented a proposed 49% budget cut from taking place!<br />

In fact, this new funding level is, in effect, an increase over last year’s since Congress is suspending the automatic sequester cuts that began last year. NEA will now have the full spending power of $146 million to invest in community-based arts programs across the country.Crystal Young-Otterstromhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04155554838474912996noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894073755725713325.post-40321656760404907312014-01-14T15:01:00.004-08:002014-01-14T15:01:45.865-08:00Upcoming Special Events in February @ UMFA (SLC: February)<div class="p1">

<div class="p4">
The UMFA is excited to partner with the Utah Film Center to present a series of films that address the lives and creative processes of various artists, exposing the pressures, concerns, and influences that shape their work. This Wednesday <i>Angel Azul </i>will be screened. <i>Angel Azul </i>explores the artistic journey of Jason de Caires Taylor, an innovative artist who combines creativity with an important environmental solution; the creation of artificial coral reefs from statues he's cast from live models. When algae overtake the reefs, however, experts provide the facts about the perilous situation coral reefs currently face and solutions necessary to save them. Peter Coyote generously provides insightful narration that leaves viewers pondering our connection to this valuable and beautiful ecosystem. <i>Angel Azul</i> director, Marcy Cravat will be in attendance for a post-film Q+A.

<div class="p4">
<b><i>Tacita Dean: JG</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through May 4, 2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
JG, the new film project by internationally recognized artist Tacita Dean, takes its point of departure from the physical and thematic interplay between a work of science fiction and a work of Land art: the short story The Voices of Time (1960) by writer J. G. Ballard and the Spiral Jetty (1970) by artist Robert Smithson.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
In a series of conversations with Ballard prior to his death in 2009, Dean was encouraged to treat Spiral Jetty as a mystery that might be solved through a filmic investigation into the nature of history and material. Employing her patented technique of “aperture gate masking,” in which she uses stencil-like masks to alternately cover up and re-expose her film, Dean transfers images from one place to another, generating visual and conceptual juxtapositions within the space of the individual 35mm frame.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
Shot in Utah’s desert, the Great Salt Lake, and even the Hogle Zoo, the film intersperses a variety of salt-encrusted landscapes, machines, and animals with a host of abstract shapes and voids. The viewer experiences time and place in ways that parallel the effects of Ballard’s fiction and Smithson’s artwork.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
JG reaches across decades and disciplines, tracing the connection between three distinct artists and their interrelated work.</div>

<b><i>The Center for Land Use Interpretation: The Great Salt Lake Landscan</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through May 4, 2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
The Utah Museum of Fine Arts commissioned the Center for Land Use Interpretation (CLUI), a Wendover/Los Angeles-based research organization concerned with how the nation's lands are apportioned, utilized, and perceived, to produce a "landscan" of the Great Salt Lake. Filmed from helicopters, CLUI landscans are dynamic, crystal clear, gyro-stabilized high-definition videos that function as portraits of places. They represent major elements of continental land use, depicting man-affected landscapes so large the only way to visually capture them is with one long, continuous, aerial shot. Accompanied by subtle ambient sound, The Great Salt Lake Landscan flies over brilliantly colored salt concentration ponds and a landscape often described as otherworldly.</div>
<div class="p4">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b><i>The Savage Poem Around Me: Alfred Lambourne's Great Salt Lake</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through June 15, 2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
Alfred Lambourne walked the Mormon Trail in 1866, at age sixteen, to Salt Lake City, sketching during much of the route. By the 1880s he had become a well-known local artist who painted and traveled with Thomas Moran and Albert Bierstadt on their many visits to Salt Lake City. Of the varied landscapes he painted, nothing held his imagination so thoroughly as the Great Salt Lake. Captivated by it, he painted many views of Black Rock, the infinite and varied moods of the weather, and the shipwrecks and the drama of the lake. In 1887 he realized his dream of perfect solitude by homesteading Gunnison Island.</div>
<div class="p4">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
In his book Our Inland Sea: The Story of a Homestead he described the first day of his fourteen-month exile: "Ghostly, wrapped in its shroud of snow, my island stands white above the blackness of unfreezing waters. What have I done? Although I had lived these days by anticipation, no sooner had the sails of the departing yacht vanished below the watery horizon …than I realized at once, and with a strange sinking of the heart…the savage poem around me." This exhibition will explore the art-roughly twenty-five paintings-the many sketches, and the poetry and writing of this unique and beloved pioneer artist and his obsession with the landscape of our "inland sea"—the Great Salt Lake</div>

<b>Lawrence Weiner:<br />
<i>BENT TO A STRAIGHT AND NARROW AT A POINT OF PASSAGE</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through mid-2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
A fascinating work of language sculpture by groundbreaking contemporary artist Lawrence Weiner is now on view in the UMFA G.W. Anderson Family Great Hall. Purchased by the Museum in 2011 with funds from the Phyllis Cannon Wattis Endowment for 20th Century Art, <i>BENT TO A STRAIGHT AND NARROW AT A POINT OF PASSAGE</i> (1976) is an important addition to the UMFA's permanent collection of contemporary art and represents a canonical moment in art history.</div>

<b><i>Exploring Sustainability</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through July 28, 2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<i>Exploring Sustainability</i> is an exhibition of new projects that explore how principles of ecological sustainability and affiliated design strategies are applied to creative thinking and to the design process. During Sustainable Design Practice, the University of Utah studio art course in which this work was created, students gained an overview of the environmental impacts of design and production practices as well as the processes and methods associated with more sustainable approaches. The projects created over the course of the spring 2013 semester are inspired examples of how students integrated sustainable design into their own creative process. The exhibition is intended to stimulate further dialogue among the university and local communities about issues related to sustainability.</div>

<div class="p4">
<b><i>salt 9: Jillian Mayer</i></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>On view through August 17, 2014</b></div>
<div class="p4">
"What's the point of living offline anymore?" Jillian Mayer asks in her catchy sing-a-long MegaMega Upload. The artist debuted this hip-hop song on her YouTube channel in January 2013 before it premiered as part of her short film #PostModem at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival. Since then, the video has received 21,000 views and has inspired more than 160 viewer comments. In 2011 Mayer uploaded her song and video I Am Your Grandma, and it's since received 2,445,525 views, 20,895 likes, 1,601 dislikes, and 7,970 viewer comments-not to mention the countless spoofs it's inspired, including choreographed dances and remakes by five-year-olds, an Internet troll, college students, a fake plastic kitty, Darth Vader, Wes Borland, and a Cabbage Patch Kid.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
But, what does it mean to upload your soul to the Internet or to leave a timeless video message for your unborn grandchild? Cloaked with humor, fast editing, and pop soundtracks, Mayer's videos are designed for mass appeal but ask big questions about human connection and manufactured realities. Her work lives in, and is activated by, viewer participation. She investigates the (im)possibility of authenticity and the multiplicity of authorship by co-opting the visual language and tools of Google, online chat boards, and viral videos. Indebted to the cultural constructions of the 1980s sitcom but looking ahead to the infinite implications of the Internet, Mayer uses photography, video, drawing, installation, and performance to tease out the pathways and pitfalls of postmodern identity formation while considering our increasing integration with the web and questioning the distinction between reality and the virtual world.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p4">
Jillian Mayer (American, b. 1984, lives Miami) received her BFA from Florida International University in 2007. In 2010 her video Scenic Jogging was one of twenty-five selections for the Guggenheim's YouTube Play: A Biennial of Creative Video and was exhibited at Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice, Italy; Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain; and Deutsche Guggenheim, Berlin, Germany. Recent solo projects include Love Trips at World Class Boxing, Miami (2011) and Precipice/PostModem at Locust Projects, Miami (2013). In 2012 and 2013 Mayer's short films were selected to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival. In 2013 Mayer was in residency in Berne, Switzerland, as a Zentrum Paul Klee Fellow and in New York City as an NEA Southern Constellation Fellow.</div>

Not Rated<br />
<br />
The Green Wave is a touching documentary-collage illustrating the dramatic events and telling about the feelings of the people behind Iran’s Green Revolution.

<br />
Directed by Nick Park and Peter Lord<br />
84 min. | 2000 | USA<br />
Rated G<br />
From the Academy Award-winning team behind the popular “Wallace and Gromit” shorts comes a feature-length animated adventure set at Tweedy’s chicken farm, where any chicken who doesn’t make her egg quota can meet a “fowl” fate. The action turns on the characters of Rocky (an American rooster) and Ginger (a British chicken) who, along with their fellow flock, are determined to break out from the sinister farm before they can be fried, filleted or fricasseed.<br />

125 min / China / 2013<br />
Not Rated – Warning: Violence<br />
Mandarin w/ English subtitles<br />
<br />
Inspired by four shocking (and true) events that forced the world’s fastest growing economy into a period of self-examination, A Touch Of Sin is the latest from master filmmaker Jia Zhangke, “one of the best and most important directors in the world” (Richard Brody, The New Yorker). This daring, poetic and grand-scale film focuses on four characters, each living in different provinces, who are driven to violent ends.<br />

CUTIE AND THE BOXER<br />
<br />
Directed by Zachary Heinzerling<br />
82 min/ USA / 2013<br />
Rated R<br />
<br />
A reflection on love, sacrifice, and the creative spirit, this candid documentary explores the chaotic 40-year marriage of renowned “boxing” painter Ushio Shinohara and his artist wife Noriko. Now 80, Ushio still struggles to establish his artistic legacy, while Noriko is at last being recognized for her own art— a series of drawings entitled “Cutie.” Spanning four decades, the film is a moving portrait of a couple wrestling with the eternal themes of sacrifice, disappointment and aging.<br />

Not Rated<br />
<br />
Rocky Braat, a young man with a troubled past, went traveling through India without a plan. There he met a group of HIV positive children living in an orphanage — a meeting that changed everything for him. Rocky left his life, friends, and career to live with the kids. Steve Hoover, his best friend and filmmaker, was unsettled and intrigued by this drastic action. In an effort to find out what compelled Rocky to give up every source of stability in his life, he decided to trace Rocky’s story, following him to India.<br />

<br />
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<br />
<br />
New Exhibition:<br />
Steven Stradley: Peripheries<br />
<br />
Exhibition dates: January 17-March 15, 2014<br />
Exhibition opening reception: Friday, January 17, 6-9pm.<br />
CUAC hours: W-F12-7pm, Sat 12-4pm.<br />

<br />
CUAC is pleased to present new work by Utah native and conceptual painter Steven Stradley in his solo exhibition Peripheries. Stradley’s nontraditional paintings will take the form of investigative installations that highlight the often discarded and forgotten architectural elements specific to CUAC’s gallery space while simultaneously exploring the self-referential properties of painting.<br />
<br />
Fully aware of the history of Modernism Stradley explores color, texture, and abstraction in expansive panels. He then positions his work within particular spaces to activate a dialogue between the viewer, the work and the location. Stradley chooses to “hang” his paintings in a manner that allows segments to be viewed on all sides transforming his works into free-hanging sculptures, thereby redefining two-dimensional painting. By directing viewers’ eyes toward ceilings, floors, niches and walls Stradley invites viewers to acknowledge the unique structural attributes of each space he exhibits in, facilitating an examination of place and the function of painting as a medium and as a frame.<br />
<br />
Steven Stradley received a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Painting and Art Education from Utah State University. He also received a Masters of Fine Arts in Painting from Michigan State University. He currently resides in St. George, Utah and teaches at Tuacahn High School for Performing Arts.<br />
<br />
CUAC strives to develop and expand Utah’s regional art-culture through exhibitions of contemporary art and by creating a context for understanding. Admission to CUAC is always free.<br />
