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:SLO Repertory Theatre presents: The Children
DESCRIPTION:On a summer evening in an isolated seaside cottage in the East of England\, a pair of retired nuclear scientists are startled by a visit from a former colleague. As some crackers and wine are trotted out\, so are various old jealousies\, leading to the the revelation of a chilling and dangerous plan. The three friends must come to terms with their shared culpability in this searing drama about responsibility and guilt\, reparation and redemption. The production is a real-time one-act pressure cooker that reminds us what’s happening to the world we live in today and poses a difficult question: what do we owe\, if anything\, to the next generation? \nSLO REP is proud to present the Central Coast premiere of Lucy Kirkwood’s brave\, humane and beautifully written play that confronts the responsibility each generation must face for the way it leaves the world.
