SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Robert Wilson: Video 50
DESCRIPTION:The tiny dramas that comprise Robert Wilson's Video 50 contain aspects of his hallmark aesthetic: surreal or dream-like imagery\, the absence of a linear narrative\, the conflation of seemingly unrelated characters and micro-stories\, and a mesmerizingly slow pace. Video 50 consists of a randomly arranged set of 30-second \"episodes\,\" a few of which feature notable French personalities of the 1970s-perfumier Hélène Rochas stares down a mugger\, culture minister Michel Guy struggles to open a dresser drawer-and Wilson thought of these as miniature portraits or character studies. The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

SUMMARY:Performance:Blackthorn
DESCRIPTION:Blackthorn has been offering their uniquely rich tapestry of Celtic music around the Great Lakes since 1984. Traditional songs of emigration\, sea shanties\, lively jigs and reels\, and haunting ancient airs combine with some of Ireland's best contemporary songs for a musical experience that evokes the beauty\, history\, and legend of Ireland and its people. Each member of the band plays multiple instruments\, including wooden flute\, accordion\, tin whistle\, five-string banjo\, cittern\, bones and more. These instruments complement the lead vocal of Belfast native Richard McMullan and the band's tight four-part harmonies. Based in Detroit\, Blackthorn can usually be found at O'Mara's Pub and Restaurant in Berkley\, and their appearances on WJR's St. Patrick's Day show are a Michigan Celtic tradition. This evening they lend their talents in support of ACS CAN-- the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. ACS CAN is the nonprofit\, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate of the American Cancer Society that holds lawmakers accountable for their words and their actions. ACS CAN asks that our leaders not only talk about fighting cancer\, but take real steps toward decreasing the number of people suffering and dying from cancer.
