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:Lecture / Discussion:The Future of Asia's Cultural Past by Vishakha N. Desai
DESCRIPTION:From the time of Charles Freer in the late-19th century to most of the 20th century\, “Asian art” was synonymous with pre-modern or traditional arts of Asia. With the arrival of contemporary arts on the scene in the last two decades\, accompanied by rapid economic growth of Asian countries\, especially China and India\, traditional arts are now at risk of being overshadowed by the contemporary art obsessions in popular culture as well as in scholarly communities.\n\nIn this illustrated lecture\, Dr. Desai\, widely recognized as a leader in introducing contemporary Asian arts to American audiences\, will focus on the current state of the study of pre-modern arts in China and India\, their relevance for contemporary realities\, and their future in the rapidly changing societies of Asia.\n\nDr. Desai is the sixth President and CEO of the Asia Society\, a leading global organization committed to strengthening partnerships among the people\, leaders\, and institutions of Asia and the United States.\n\nAbout the series: The Charles Lang Freer Lecture aims to encourage a broad-spectrum dialogue on the arts of Asia in keeping with the larger mandate of the Freer bequest. Through engagement with outstanding speakers from all corners of the art world\, the series fosters fresh perspectives on the arts and Asia in the twenty-first century.\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Healing our Nation’s freshwater seas:  Long-term approaches to restoring the Great Lakes
DESCRIPTION:The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative is the most recent example of remedial projects that target the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement’s goal of restoring the physical\, chemical\, and biological integrity of the lakes.

Dr. Bowerman will provide examples of how long-term monitoring projects are used in the Great Lakes and some of the unique problems these monitoring programs face.\nSponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in conjunction with NOAA’s role in the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative: Assessing the health of the Great Lakes workshop\n

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:Performance:Genticorum
DESCRIPTION:Genticorum was founded in 2000\, when Pascal Gemme (fiddle\, feet\, and vocals)\, Yann Falquet (guitar\, Jew's harp\, and vocals)\, and Alexandre de Grosbois-Garand (wooden flute\, electric bass\, and vocals) discovered a mutual love for the curious Quebec dish called poutine (French fries soaked in hot gravy and cheese curds) and French Canadian fiddle tunes. Now\, they say\, they like shawarma too\, and they've added some elements of contemporary composition to their music. After three albums and tours of more than 15 countries (including Egypt and Malaysia)\, they've become among the most sought-after ambassadors of Quebecois musical culture. Weaving wooden flute\, fiddle\, acoustic guitar\, jaw harp\, bass\, and foot percussion with strong three-part vocal harmonies\, they produce a brilliant tapestry. Get a glimpse into the spirited world of Quebec's traditional music from a real \"power trio\" that knows how to do it right!
