Taiko Legacy 8


            
 

TAIKO LEGACY 8

December 17-18, 2011


Combining thunderous drumming, jazz improvisations, and stylized kimono dance: Taiko Legacy was created in Chicago and remains the country's largest celebration of its kind. Tsukasa Taiko at JASC; tenor saxophonist Edward Wilkerson and percussionist Coco Elysses-Hevia of Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians; and three generations of artists from Chicago, San Francisco, and Tokyo including Yoko Kimura (shamisen/koto) and Yasushi Shimazaki (chindoya), perform for this percussion and movement performance. Tatsu Aoki and Amy Homma co-direct the taiko drumming that grounds Taiko Legacy 8 in an innovative cross-pollination of cultures and artistic forms with roots in theater and ceremonial music. Tsukasa Taiko at JASC returns to the MCA Stage on December 17-18, 2011. Taiko Legacy is a program of Asian Improv aRts Midwest and JASC, the Japanese American Service Committee of Chicago.

The MCA first presented Taiko Legacy in 1998, when Aoki was invited to experimentby combining his Asian Jazz bass performance with a visual artist and taiko drummer; resulting in a groundbreaking collage of Japanese and Korean performing arts. The programs have expanded since 1998 and now include improvisation jazz with traditional pan-Asian music and dance. The Taiko Legacy 8 performances are energetic and colorful with many musicians and drummers on stage, including youth drummers performing in traditional attire.

The Paintings of Louis Comfort Tiffany



The Paintings of Louis Comfort Tiffany:
Works from a Long Island Collection

First New York Exhibition to Focus on
Tiffany’s Paintings in More than Three Decades

At Nassau County Museum of Art
December 10, 2011 though March 18, 2012

Drawn from an important private Long Island collection, The Paintings of Louis Comfort Tiffany: Works from a Long Island Collection is a major exhibition that showcases approximately 125 oils on canvas and works on paper by Louis Comfort Tiffany, an American artist most closely associated with the Art Nouveau and Aesthetic movements. This exhibition, the first focusing on Tiffany’s paintings to be seen in the New York metropolitan area since 1979, opens at Nassau County Museum of Art on December 10, 2011 and remains on view through March 18, 2012. Centered on Tiffany’s paintings, many of which he created for himself to memorialize his travels and surroundings, The Paintings of Louis Comfort Tiffany offers an uncommon glimpse into the artist’s personal world. The exhibition also includes examples of Tiffany’s decorative arts, especially stained glass lamps and windows.

Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933) created light-filled works suffused with Orientalism and employing sensuous Art Nouveau lines. Tiffany’s paintings and decorative arts contrasted sharply with the era’s prevailing dark Victorian décor and had a powerful influence on the evolving aesthetics of the wealthy and famous of the Gilded Age.

The approximately 125 paintings in the exhibition include many subjects inspired by his travels to the Middle East, among them, Camel Watering Hole; Luxor, Egypt; Travelers Near Cairo; and Temple of Ramses, Abu Simbel as well as subjects closer to home such as Pushing Off the Boat at Sea Bright, New Jersey and Cows in Pond or his much-loved Long Island home as seen in Fountain at Laurelton Hall and View of Laurelton Hall.

The museum will be offering public lectures and discussions in conjunction with this exhibition of Tiffany’s paintings. For details, visit the museum’s website, nassaumuseum.org.
