SUMMARY:SLO Museum of Art Presents | Faig Ahmed: Collision
DESCRIPTION:The San Luis Obispo Museum of Art is pleased to present a solo exhibition of prolific contemporary artist Faig Ahmed. \nFrom his studio in Baku\, Azerbaijan\, Ahmed creates textile works that transcend and transform the history of carpet making in the region. Ahmed is interested in how the contemporary and the traditional collide to create something new that defies genres\, borders\, and even history. Ahmed and his weaving collaborators infuse new breath into the carpet-making practice\, turning his textiles into a rich meeting ground between the new and the old\, the common and the holy\, the rich and the ordinary. \nWorking in collaboration with Nina Levent\, Director of Sapar Contemporary\, the Museum is organizing an exhibition of works that spans Ahmed’s career — while focusing on works primarily made within the past five years — 2016 to 2021. Presenting this work for the first time on the Central Coast of California offers the arts community a unique opportunity to engage meaningfully with a practice and a body of work that has never been exhibited in this region. Complementary programming with local school districts\, guided docent tours\, and a lecture program will accompany the exhibition. The works in this exhibition are loaned from major collections from all over the world. \nAbout the Artist\nFaig Ahmed is a multimedia artist working with textiles\, painting\, video\, and installation. Ahmed is best known for his conceptual works that deconstruct and rearrange fragments of traditional Azerbaijani rugs to create contemporary sculptural forms. His work reimagines ancient crafts and creates new visual languages by disassembling traditional works and stereotypes. Born in Sumqayit\, Azerbaijan\, in 1982 Faig Ahmed went on to graduate from the Sculpture Faculty at the Azerbaijan State Academy of Fine Art in Baku in 2004. He represented Azerbaijan in nation’s inaugural pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2007 and participated in the 2013\, “Love Me\, Love Me Not” event. In 2013\, he was nominated for the third edition of the Jameel Prize organized by London’s Victoria and Albert Museum. He now lives and works in Baku\, Azerbaijan.

SUMMARY:Imprinted: Printmaking and Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:The act of printmaking itself is intimate\, from the laborious processes such as woodcarving\, acid etching\, and meticulous ink application\, to the revealing of an image from a plate. These processes too are experimental and infinitely varied\, with no two printmakers working in quite the same way. Similarly\, portraiture has an individualistic\, intimate\, and vulnerable nature to it — whether it be sitting for a portrait\, allowing another to capture your image\, or putting your own self-image into the world for others to see.

SUMMARY:Ariadne auf Naxos
DESCRIPTION:Ariadne auf Naxos – The Met: Live in HD\n\nSunday\, March 27\, 2022\n2:00 PM  5:20 PM\n\n\nHarold Miossi Hall1 Grand AvenueSan Luis Obispo\, CA\, 93405United States (map)\n\n\nGoogle Calendar  ICS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrologue  \nVienna\, 18th century. Backstage at the private theater in the house of the richest man in Vienna\, preparations are in progress for the performance of a new opera seria\, Ariadne auf Naxos. The major-domo enters to inform the music master that\, immediately after the opera\, an Italian comedy will be performed\, followed by a fireworks display in the garden. The outraged music master replies that the composer\, his young pupil\, will never tolerate that\, but the major-domo is unimpressed by his objections and leaves. When the composer appears\, hoping for a last-minute rehearsal\, a disdainful servant tells him that the musicians are still playing dinner music. Suddenly\, the tenor rushes in from his dressing room\, arguing with the wigmaker. The prima donna furiously comments on the presence of the comedy troupe and their leading lady\, Zerbinetta. In the middle of the confusion\, the major-domo returns with an announcement: In order for the fireworks to begin on time\, the opera and the comedy are to be performed simultaneously. \nGeneral consternation soon gives way to practical reactions. The dancing master suggests cutting the opera’s score. The music master persuades the despairing composer to do so\, while the two lead singers independently urge him to abridge the other’s part. Meanwhile\, Zerbinetta gives her troupe a briefing on the opera’s plot. Ariadne\, they are told\, has been abandoned by her lover Theseus on the island of Naxos\, where she now waits for death. Zerbinetta\, however\, claims that all Ariadne really needs is a new lover. When the composer vehemently disagrees\, Zerbinetta begins to flirt with him. Suddenly\, the young man finds new hope. Filled with love and enthusiasm for his work\, he passionately declares music the greatest of all the arts. But when he catches sight of the comedians\, ready to go on stage\, he realizes with horror what he has agreed to. He blames the music master for the artistic debacle and runs off. \nThe Opera  \nThe Ariadne myth tells how Prince Theseus of Athens set out for Crete to kill the Minotaur\, a creature half-man\, half-bull\, who was concealed in a labyrinth. Princess Ariadne of Crete fell in love with Theseus and gave him a ball of thread that enabled him to find his way out of the labyrinth after he had killed the Minotaur. When Theseus left Crete\, he took Ariadne with him as his bride. During their voyage home\, they stopped at the island of Naxos. While Ariadne was asleep\, Theseus slipped away and continued his journey to Athens without her. The opera Ariadne auf Naxos begins at this point. \nAriadne is alone in front of her cave. Three nymphs look on and lament her fate. Watching from the wings\, the comedians are doubtful whether they will be able to cheer her up. Ariadne recalls her love for Theseus\, then imagines herself as a chaste girl\, awaiting death. Harlekin tries to divert her with a song\, but Ariadne ignores him. As if in a trance\, she resolves to await Hermes\, messenger of death. He will take her to another world\, where everything is pure. When the comedians’ efforts continue to fail\, Zerbinetta finally addresses Ariadne directly\, woman to woman\, explaining to her the human need to change an old love for a new. Insulted\, Ariadne leaves. After Zerbinetta has finished her speech\, her colleagues leap back onto the scene\, competing for her attention. Zerbinetta gives in to Harlekin’s comic protestations of love and the comedians exit. \nThe nymphs announce the approach of a ship: It carries the young god Bacchus\, who has escaped the enchantress Circe. Bacchus’s voice is heard in the distance\, and Ariadne prepares to greet her visitor\, whom she thinks must be death at last. When he appears\, she at first mistakes him for Theseus come back to her\, but he majestically proclaims his godhood. Entranced by Ariadne’s beauty\, Bacchus tells her that he would sooner see the stars vanish than give her up. Reconciled to a new existence\, Ariadne joins Bacchus as they ascend to the heavens. Zerbinetta sneaks in to have the last word: “When a new god comes along\, we’re dumbstruck.”
