SUMMARY:Exhibition:In Focus: Jeanne Gang
DESCRIPTION:Widely acclaimed for her integrative approach to materials\, technology\, and ecological context\, Chicago-based architect Jeanne Gang was selected as a MacArthur Fellow in 2011. Shortly thereafter Gang proposed an ambitious restoration of the Chicago riverfront through a series of small but transformational projects. The WMS Boathouse\, designed by Gang and located north of downtown\, is one such project\, encompassing a field house with state-of-the art training facilities\, a boat storage building\, and a floating dock at the river’s edge. Completed in 2013\, the 22\,000-square-foot boathouse is the city’s premier rowing center\, serving a range of public rowing clubs\, many of whose amateur athletes come from the city’s underserved communities.\n\nThis installation showcases dynamic exterior and interior sketches of the complex—recently acquired by UMMA—depicting the distinctive rhythmic contours of the roof\, derived from studies of rowers in motion\, and the open\, angular\, and light-filled spaces within.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Siebren Versteeg: LIKE II (2016)
DESCRIPTION:In Siebren Versteeg’s LIKE II (2016)\, a computer painting program creates a composition using a continuously changing algorithm\, and then runs a periodic Google search to find a matching image online. Every sixty seconds\, the painting made by the computer is uploaded to Google’s “search by image” feature\, and images that most closely match the composition are then downloaded and displayed.\n\nThe notion of abstraction plays a central role in this work. Throughout modernity\, artists have sought inventive ways to free painting from its tradition as a representational medium. LIKE II inverts this ambition\, finding the reality hidden within pure abstraction. Because the work evolves based on whatever content is available online at any given moment\, the artist relinquishes a certain degree of creative control. Versteeg says\, “As the nature of the images presented by the work is random\, the artist assumes both all and no responsibility for their presence and content.”\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Two Screenings of \"Last Summer\"
DESCRIPTION:Namoi\, a young Japanese woman (RINKO KIKUCHI)\, is given four days to say goodbye to her six-year-old son aboard a luxury yacht owned by her Western ex-husband and anchored somewhere off of an Italian island. As Eastern and Western cultures collide – and with an unfriendly crew and a distant child – she must find a way to not only overcome obstacles and connect with her son\, but also to give him a piece of her culture before she must leave him for many years. Last Summer moves with the understated tension of a thriller\, except instead of life and death the stakes are those of love and loss. Beautiful production design by multiple Academy Award winner MILENA CANONERO\, tersely minimalistic dialogue\, and unhurried\, luscious cinematography create a unique palette which carries the viewer through this story of motherhood\, conflicting cultures\, love\, and loss.\n\nNot rated | 94 minutes

SUMMARY:Performance:Thunderwüde
DESCRIPTION:Born out of a need for bluegrass in the Chelsea area\, and a weekly gig at the Chelsea Alehouse\, Thunderwüde (a name coined by Fred VanReesma) became a band after a series of sessions done by Jason Dennie\, George Merkel and Wes Fritzemeier at the Alehouse. First starting as mostly a traditional bluegrass outfit\, the project morphed into playing originals from Jason as well as current pop hits in a bluegrass style. The repertoire expanded to range from Bill Monroe to Townes Van Zandt to some choice selections from blockbuster hits. Asked to define their style\, they say\, \"Bluegrass Funkgrass Slamgrass Fungrass. Sometimes we take the grass out and are just a BlueFunkSlamFun band.\"
