SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mai-Thu Perret: An Ideal for Living
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary Swiss artist Mai-Thu Perret's multidisciplinary practice fuses feminist politics with classic modernist abstraction and utopian dreams. Her installations synthesize a range of media and genres--including literature\, design\, craft\, and performance–-conjuring an imaginary alternate history of twentieth-century art\, design\, and social activism. Much of Perret's work over the past decade has stemmed from \"The Crystal Frontier\"\, the fictional archive of a female utopian commune called New Ponderosa. From paintings and sculptures to ceramics and textiles or film\, Perret's works infuse the formal vocabulary of modernism with a distinctly handmade aesthetic. Perret's exhibition at UMMA will present an episodic overview of her work from the past decade and will include numerous works never before exhibited in North America.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UMMA Projects: Simon Dybbroe Møller
DESCRIPTION:Things are not always as they seem in the work of Simon Dybbroe Møller. Indeed\, the Danish artist's works can at times appear to have been teleported from a slightly askew\, alternate version of the past. Seemingly familiar forms often appear in unexpected configurations and objects we think we recognize turn out to be something else entirely. An abstract wall painting emerges from beneath a layer of peeling plaster. A group of minimalist sculptures turn out to be the pieces of an enlarged Soma cube. This uncertainty is central to the experience of Dybbroe Møller's work\, where an initial misrecognition leads to a moment of aesthetic discovery.\n\nDybbroe Møller's penchant for puzzles and paradoxes reflects his interest in modernism's theoretical aspirations as well as its practical failings. Similarly\, his frequent adoption of “outmoded” media both provides him with a diverse artistic palette and a means of questioning the past century's faith in progress through technology and the avant-garde promise of continual artistic development.\n\nFor Dybbroe Møller's first solo exhibition in a North American museum\, UMMA will present a new body of work that continues his ongoing engagement with and critique of the modernist paradigm of transparency.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mountain Heart
DESCRIPTION:Mountain Heart makes super-powered bluegrass that can tear the house down! Take six of the finest\, most innovative musicians in bluegrass\, influenced by musical sounds from Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Stevie Ray Vaughn\, James Taylor\, and the Dave Matthews Band to George Jones\, Bill Monroe\, Flatt & Scruggs\, Alison Krauss & Union Station\, Ricky Skaggs\, and the David Grisman Quintet -- and you've got the dynamic bluegrass music of Mountain Heart. This band can go from high-speed harmonic turns to straight-ahead ballads with\, well\, mountain heart. They've appeared more than 70 times at the Grand Ole Opry\, but this band also has a strong connection with southeastern Michigan audiences. That connection deepened recently with the recording of the Mountain Heart album \"Road That Never Ends\" live at The Ark -- a milestone for the band\, the club\, and bluegrass music in general. We're proud to have this sensational bluegrass band on hand to help kick off our 46th year!
