    ArtsKSU Presents: Anthony McGill & The Pacifica Quartet
    8:00pm
    at Morgan Concert Hall, Bailey Performance Center

    Clarinetist Anthony McGill is one of classical music’s most recognizable and brilliantly multifaceted figures. He serves as the principal clarinet of the New York Philharmonic — the orchestra’s first African-American principal player — and maintains a dynamic international solo and chamber music career. Over the past 27 years, the Pacifica Quartet has achieved international recognition as one of the finest chamber ensembles performing today for its virtuosity, exuberant performance style, and often daring repertory choices. Named the quartet-in-residence at Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music in March 2012, the Pacifica was previously the quartet-in-residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and has received multiple Grammy Awards for Best Chamber Music Performance. In 2017, the Pacifica Quartet was appointed to lead the Center for Advanced Quartet Studies at the Aspen Music Festival and School.

    The History of Casting with Dr. Brian Herrera
    The History of Casting with Dr. Brian Herrera
    7:00pm
    at Bailey Performance Center, Scott Hall

    Drawing upon his ongoing research for his book-length study of the topic (Next! A Brief History of Casting), Brian Herrera guides a lively interactive discussion about the history of casting in U.S. popular performance.

    This conversation aims to press the critical, creative, and historical understanding of casting beyond familiar zero-sum measures of good/bad, success/failure, or right/wrong so as to cultivate an appreciation of casting as a dynamic repertoire of performance techniques, practices, and conventions ripe for experimentation, innovation, and revision.

    NO TICKETS OR RESERVATIONS are required for in-person attendance.

    Lesley Dill Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me features a uniquely inspired group of sculptures and two-dimensional works more than a decade in the making. The exhibition represents Lesley Dill’s ongoing investigation into the significant voices and personas of America’s past. For Dill, the “American” voice grew from early America’s obsessions with divinity and deviltry, on fears of the wilderness “out there” and the wilderness inside us. The extremes of both shaped history and gave pulse and heat to the words of activists like John Brown, Sojourner Truth, Mother Ann Lee, and Dred Scott.

    CLOWNS (On Film)

    Hofesh Shechter’s Clowns is a dance film that plays out a macabre comedy of murder and desire, asking how far we will go in the name of entertainment. Directed, choreographed and composed by Hofesh Shechter, it combines bold, exhilarating and tribal movement by ten dancers with a percussive, cinematic score.

     

    POLITICAL MOTHER: The Final Cut (On Film)

    Hofesh Shechter’s iconic stage work Political Mother explodes onto the screen as an unplugged, unapologetic and exhilarating new short film.

    From behind the lens, Shechter brings Battersea Arts Centre’s imposing architecture and intimate spaces centre stage, immersing audiences within a fragile world of raw emotions as a group of individuals struggle against the complex structures that define their world, and ours.

    Lesley Dill Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me features a uniquely inspired group of sculptures and two-dimensional works more than a decade in the making. The exhibition represents Lesley Dill’s ongoing investigation into the significant voices and personas of America’s past. For Dill, the “American” voice grew from early America’s obsessions with divinity and deviltry, on fears of the wilderness “out there” and the wilderness inside us. The extremes of both shaped history and gave pulse and heat to the words of activists like John Brown, Sojourner Truth, Mother Ann Lee, and Dred Scott.

    The Merian Ensemble
    7:30pm
    at Bailey Performance Center, Morgan Concert Hall

    The Merian Ensemble is a chamber music ensemble formed by five women of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra in 2019. The group aims to support and spotlight chamber music composed by women by presenting an annual concert series and commissioning a new chamber music work each year. Their name honors the genius of Maria Sybilla Merian (1647-1717), a brilliant scientist and artist who created intricately beautiful drawings in order to illuminate the tiniest details of metamorphosis. However, her ground-breaking work enjoyed a fraction of the contemporary acclaim or celebrated legacy of her male scientist peers. Her story fuels the ensemble’s passion for bringing obscured music to light, and their determination to celebrate the women composing today. By consistently presenting new and rediscovered repertoire through concerts, recordings, tours, and outreach, the ensemble reveals the volume and value of these works too often absent from the concert stage.

    Created in the 1990’s, the iconic rock musical Rent has sustained its immediacy and theatrical power for over twenty-five years. The story offers an intimate encounter with a diverse group of young artists living in the lower east side of New York as we follow their daily struggles to make ends meet during the siege of HIV AIDS. Their relationships remind us of the power of a supportive community, and most of all, the hope and joy that love offers in the midst of loss and despair.

    9:00am
    at Zuckerman Museum of Art, Mortin Gallery and Don Russell Clayton Gallery

    Lesley Dill Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me features a uniquely inspired group of sculptures and two-dimensional works more than a decade in the making. The exhibition represents Lesley Dill’s ongoing investigation into the significant voices and personas of America’s past. For Dill, the “American” voice grew from early America’s obsessions with divinity and deviltry, on fears of the wilderness “out there” and the wilderness inside us. The extremes of both shaped history and gave pulse and heat to the words of activists like John Brown, Sojourner Truth, Mother Ann Lee, and Dred Scott.

    Music, Lyrics, and Book by Jonathan Larson
    Directed by Amanda Wansa Morgan

    1996 Tony Award for Best Musical and Pulitzer-Prize Winner for Drama

    Created in the 1990’s, the iconic rock musical Rent has sustained its immediacy and theatrical power for over twenty-five years. The story offers an intimate encounter with a diverse group of young artists living in the lower east side of New York as we follow their daily struggles to make ends meet during the siege of HIV AIDS. Their relationships remind us of the power of a supportive community, and most of all, the hope and joy that love offers in the midst of loss and despair.

    In this two-part workshop series, graphic designer and Kennesaw State instructor Valentina Caver will guide participants in exploring different ways to create expressive letters and combine them into a dynamic composition as well as touch on fundamentals of typography. Come prepared to explore typography in an interactive, engaged, and hands on approach. All materials will be provided. No previous knowledge of typography or letter creating is necessary. Sign up for one or both sessions, as they will each be unique.

     

    Valentina Caver is a graphic designer, artist and illustrator currently teaching graphic communication classes at Kennesaw State University. With a Master of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from Georgia State University, Valentina is pursuing her passion - teaching and sharing knowledge and work experiences with her students. In addition to teaching, Valentina enjoys working on projects in which digital and hand created art can be combined. 

    Valentina has experience working with clients from the US and Germany and speak three languages. Her love and passion for art and design is deeply rooted in the desire to solve problems and see beauty and purpose in all things. The trust in the problem-solving process as a designer and artist gives her confidence in her work. In Valentina's research she is interested in how cultural backgrounds help us interpret the language of design. Within language and culture, typography is one of Valentina's most interesting subjects to explore and study.

    Lesley Dill, "Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me"
    9:00am
    at Zuckerman Museum of Art, Mortin Gallery and Don Russell Clayton Gallery

    Lesley Dill Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me features a uniquely inspired group of sculptures and two-dimensional works more than a decade in the making. The exhibition represents Lesley Dill’s ongoing investigation into the significant voices and personas of America’s past. For Dill, the “American” voice grew from early America’s obsessions with divinity and deviltry, on fears of the wilderness “out there” and the wilderness inside us. The extremes of both shaped history and gave pulse and heat to the words of activists like John Brown, Sojourner Truth, Mother Ann Lee, and Dred Scott.

    8:00pm
    at KSU Dance Theater on the Marietta campus

    Long Ago and Only Once originally premiered in 2019 as a contemporary dance film.  Performed live for the first time at the KSU Dance Theatre, the Terminus artists bring to life this full evening work centered around the inherent and dynamic tension of a joke, a fact, or someone’s personal story waiting to be completed. Disruption and closure are explored from the audiences’ perspective looking into a community. When and how the punchline is delivered, or if at all, is the waiting game we all play.
