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:Performance:Ring of Steel Action Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Theatrical combat is a multidisciplinary art that combines acting with elements of  fencing\, martial arts\, dance\, and music to develop a safe and effective  performance. It is a distinct area of study\; essentially a marital art where the focus  is not to injure your partner. As with any martial art\, years of training are needed  before an individual is prepared to safely share their skills on the stage.\n\nThe Ring of Steel offers theatrical combat training in a wide range of weapons and  combat styles\, based in large part on Aikido and late period rapier.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UMMA Projects: Simon Dybbroe MÃ¸ller
DESCRIPTION:Things are not always as they seem in the work of Simon Dybbroe MÃ¸ller. 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 MÃ¸ller's work\, where an initial misrecognition leads to a moment of aesthetic discovery.\n\nDybbroe MÃ¸ller'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 MÃ¸ller'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:Beausoleil
DESCRIPTION:Garrison Keillor calls BeauSoleil the best Cajun band in the world! Over three decades of exploring the panorama of Louisiana music\, BeauSoleil and leader Michael Doucet have re-created a culture and become its ambassadors. They're named not for sunshine but for Joseph Broussard dit Beausoleil\, the leader of the Acadian-French resistance to British deportation efforts beginning in 1755. You can come to a BeauSoleil concert to party or to experience musical history through the group's mix of Cajun\, zydeco\, country\, blues\, bluegrass\, Tex-Mex\, and Afro-Caribbean sounds! Cajun bands come and go\, but BeauSoleil endures and just keeps getting better. BeauSoleil's latest\, \"Alligator Purse\,\" their first studio project since 2004\, snared the band its 11th Grammy nomination. This inspired and eclectic disc features inventive reinterpretations of Cajun classics by such Louisiana legends as Dennis McGee and Amédé Ardoin\, as well as fresh reworkings of songs by Muddy Waters and JJ Cale.
