Join musicologist Priscilla Pawlicki as she offers two new courses at the Pasadena Conservatory of Music that are sure to awaken the music lover in you. Chamber Music in Pasadena 2009-10 is a two-quarter course that explores the upcoming season of Pasadena's finest chamber music organizatons. Repertoire from Camerata Pacifica, Coleman Chamber Music, Ensemble Green, Pacific Serenades and Southwest Chamber Music will be discussed in class before the concerts with lectures, recordings and some live performance. Sharpen your listening skills, acquaint yourself with a remarkably varied body of works and enhance your concert-going experiences in a course designed for the general listener and musician alike. The class meets every Wednesday from 7 to 9:15 pm beginning September 23.
Twentieth-Century Masters: Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartók and Shostakovich, Tuesday from 10:00 am to 12:15 pm, explores the classics of contemporary music. As composers sought new modes of expression in a changing world after 1900, musical styles became richer and more complex than at any other time in Western music. Schoenberg's emancipation of dissonance and his development of the 12-tone system brought about a dramatic schism with the music of the past. Stravinsky's early ballets exploited rhythm in a new way - free from the tyranny of the barline as he described the Rite of Spring, his famous early work that provoked a riot at its premiere in 1913. Bartók colored his unique style with the distinctive rhythms and melodic phrases of Eastern European folk music, while Shostakovich, in his extraordinary cycles of string quartets and symphonies, chronicled his experiences in contemporary Soviet society, declaring that ...art registers its firm protest against evil and oppression.

The final section will feature recent work by contemporary architects Greg Lynn, Elena Manferdini, and Johanna Grawunder, demonstrating how the permeable boundaries between architecture and design continue to be a paradigm of present practice. The exhibition signifies anew focus on modern and contemporary design and also offers a preview of many works that will be on view in the upcoming major exhibition California Design 193065: Living in a Modern Way, the first-ever survey of California design, opening at LACMA in 2011.

Visitors to the Museum are accustomed to viewing peaceful, benevolent Buddhist deities, such as smiling Buddhas deep in meditation or serenely blissful bodhisattvas beckoning to us. But scattered throughout the Asian galleries is a striking assortment of demonic, wrathful deities--figures that bare fangs, drink blood, wear garlands of severed heads or are surrounded by fiery haloes. Divine Demons: Wrathful Deities of Buddhist Art, an intimate exhibition of paintings, sculptures and ceremonial ritual objects from the Museumandrsquo;s permanent collection, explores this fascinating theme.

Pieces from the ongoing Space Fields series will be included as well as work stemming from his trips to Japan, Paris, Turkey, Mexico and Alaska. Self-portraits culled from various bodies of work, and works created in collaboration with other artists will also be presented that connote Raphael's exploration of personal inner space in addition to his inquiry to outer space.

The Baroque World of Fernando Botero is the first major U.S. retrospective presented in more than 30 years by Columbian artist Fernando Botero (b. 1932). Recognized world-wide for his unique style of voluminous forms and sensuous figures, Botero's work often takes on subjects related to religion, politics, and history with a critical and comical approach. All the works are generously on loan from the artist's personal collection and many have never before been seen in public. The exhibition features 100 paintings, sculptures, and drawings, dating from the 1950s to the present, of Botero's favorite works as well as pieces he reacquired years after they left his possession.

The UAM is proud to present Brian Eno's installation, 77 Million Paintings, from September 10th through December 13th, 2009 with a reception scheduled on Saturday, September 12th at 6 pm. Variations on the installation have been exhibited internationally, but never in Southern California.
Using sophisticated computer software and audio boom boxes, 77 Million Paintings features constantly changing images and musical compositions, which challenge the notion that the artist must be in control. Eno's input simply sets the trajectory for the work to evolve into patterns that have the potential for surprising him as well as the audience. With carefully designed lighting, relaxed seating, and strategically placed speakers, viewers enjoy an experience that is continuously evolving. The exhibition consists of a wall of twelve monitors (of varying dimensions) that reflect the parameters Eno has programmed into several computers. The images slowly transform into a virtually endless series of visual configurations. Seating in the gallery allows viewers to comfortably enjoy the ''paintings'' for any length of time. Because the black carpeting and dark walls block out available lighting, specially designed lights guide viewers through the galleries.

Calligraffiti: Writing in Contemporary Chinese and Latino Art addresses issues of power, culture, and universality. The process of writing in art is a central theme, permitting the exploration of correlations between the elevated form, calligraphy, and its historically devalued twin, graffiti. Suggesting that these visual practices mirror each other, the exhibition presents works that critique or parody social and artistic frames of reference.
Premised on the idea that art is a game that mirrors the realities of life, the works in this exhibition suggest that through ''calligraffiti'' (calligraphy + graffiti), knowledge can be constructed that simultaneously embraces the elevated and debased, intention and chance, reality and myth. Layering languages, histories, and philosophies, the works collectively trace evolving paradigms of artistic thought and practice to enhance greater respect and understanding of social and cultural multiplicity and difference.
Artists featured in the exhibition include: Apex, Chaz Bojorquez, Vince Cavallo, Cre8, Desi W.O.M.E., Duce, Fung Ming Chip, Gronk, Gu Wenda, Julianna Hernandez, Keo, Leo Limon, Man One, Minette Lee Mangahas, Sano, Scud, John Valadez, Vyal, Xu Bing, Yu Kun Yang, Zhang Dali, Zheng Chongbin, and Zender.

In the 1970s, photographer Greg Day lived in the African American basket-making communities along the Gullah/Geechee Coast, documenting a way of life on the verge of change. Casting for shrimp with nets made as they are still made in Africa, making sweet grass baskets, scraping bristles off a freshly slaughtered hog, dancing at a juke joint on a Saturday nightthese rural pastimes would soon be displaced by suburban sprawl, hastened by the destruction of Hurricane Hugo in 1989.
Designated by Congress in 2006, the Gullah/Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor extends from Wilmington, North Carolina through coastal South Carolina and Georgia to Jacksonville, Florida. It is home to one of Americaandrsquo;s most unique cultures, a tradition first shaped by captive Africans brought to the southern United States from West Africa and continued in later generations by their descendents. Today many African Americans, including First Lady Michelle Obama, trace their ancestry to this region. Once identified with the Creole language spoken by African Americans in the region, today the term Gullah refers to a whole range of customs and beliefs, cuisine, domestic architecture, and arts, including the sweetgrass baskets in the exhibition Grass Roots: African Origins of an American Art, opening October 4.

Opening reception Saturday, September 19, 2009
Founded in 2004 in Guanajuato, Mexico, Ten Pound Ape is an international art collective that engages in public intervention projects, which question the nature of civic sculpture, coand#8208;opt the verbiage of nonand#8208;commercial street advertisements, and expand the boundaries of community. For this exhibition, Ten Pound Ape presents the fourth part of a series where the group builds a siteand#8208;specific performance sculpture from collected urban debris and ephemera. This project fits the Museum's objective of encouraging and supporting direct public engagement in its programming.
During the opening reception, members of the collective will play records within the sculpture and give out fortunes and tokens. After the performance, the space will open up to the community, inviting viewers to explore, change the interior or exterior, work on small-scale art projects or just lounge.

Twentieth-Century Masters: Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartók and Shostakovich, Tuesday from 10:00 am to 12:15 pm, explores the classics of contemporary music. As composers sought new modes of expression in a changing world after 1900, musical styles became richer and more complex than at any other time in Western music. Schoenberg's emancipation of dissonance and his development of the 12-tone system brought about a dramatic schism with the music of the past. Stravinsky's early ballets exploited rhythm in a new way - free from the tyranny of the barline as he described the Rite of Spring, his famous early work that provoked a riot at its premiere in 1913. Bartók colored his unique style with the distinctive rhythms and melodic phrases of Eastern European folk music, while Shostakovich, in his extraordinary cycles of string quartets and symphonies, chronicled his experiences in contemporary Soviet society, declaring that ...art registers its firm protest against evil and oppression.

Veronica draws together an all-woman cast of artists from the United States, Germany and The Netherlands whose works involve an examination of their cultural guideposts. Inspired by the myth of Saint Veronica--who mopped Jesus's brow on the road to Golgotha resulting in an imprint of his face on her veil––the artists attempt to cleanse and update existing stereotypes and the icons that support them. Like Veronica, who committed a brave and selfless act, these artists have created courageous works that tackle gender, politics, religion and identity issues while freely indulging in the familiar tropes and rituals of ancient myth and magic. The result is a collection of visually compelling works that beguile with formal invention and persuade with thematic wit.
