Welcome

to the construction season ! After years of planning and preparation, all of Talley Student Center – including Stewart Theatre and the Gregg Museum of Art & Design – is now closed for a major expansion and renovation. (It will look amazing when it reopens.) But as they say: the show goes on! Our beautiful Thompson Hall will be a (very) busy hub of activity over the next two years. As many performances as possible will shift to the Thompson Hall theatres, with quite a few others in alternate campus and community venues. It won’t be long until we break ground on the new exhibition wing that will transform NC State’s historic Chancellor’s Residence on Hillsborough Street into the new home of the Gregg Museum of Art & Design, creating an outstanding cultural landmark for our region. Meanwhile, the Gregg Museum folks will be mounting exhibitions in other spaces; please read all about it in this brochure. As always, we are proud to offer you a remarkable lineup of performances, exhibitions and crafts classes. This busy season will include an all-Beethoven celebration to mark the Music Department’s 90th anniversary, University Theatre’s over-the-top production of everyone’s favorite naughty musical, Chicago, and a dazzling Center Stage season that includes not one, but two offbeat theatrical shows that have been darlings of fringe festivals the world over. And that barely scratches the surface. Join us for the magic!

CenterStage The Adventures of Alvin Sputnik: Deep Sea Explorer Thursday-Sunday, October 24-27, 2013  Titmus Theatre Performance times: Thursday at 8pm, Friday at 6pm & 8pm, Saturday at 5pm & 8pm, Sunday at 2pm Winner of best solo show at the New York International Fringe Festival (as well as numerous awards all over the world), The Adventures of Alvin Sputnik: Deep Sea Explorer is a micro-epic puppet spectacle that melds technology and multimedia into a touching story about love, loss, and heroism in a post-apocalyptic world. Created by Tim Watts and produced by Perth Theatre Company and Weeping Spoon Productions of Australia, this endearing show employs a unique blend of mime, puppetry, music and animation to present an exploration of the next and oldest frontier: the deep blue sea. The seas have risen, billions have died, and those who are left live on farms atop skyscrapers. A last ditch effort to save the human race requires journeying down through the mysterious depths of the sea to find a new place for us to live. These are the dire circumstances which surround the central hero of this tale, Alvin Sputnik. Having just lost his wife, Alvin accepts this perilous mission so that he may follow her soul down to the underworld, where they can be together once more.

While this show was created for adult audiences, it is appropriate for older children.

Turtle Island Quartet with Nellie McKay Tuesday, October 29, 2013 at 8pm  A.J. Fletcher Theater, Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts The delightful Nellie McKay – a witty singer-songwriter, actress (The Threepenny Opera on Broadway and P.S. I Love You on film), pianist, comedienne and ukulele player – joins forces with the two-time Grammy Awardwinning Turtle Island Quartet to present a kaleidoscopic view of the music of Billie Holiday, Billy Strayhorn, and the Weimar cabaret of the 1920s. Adopting the title of the beloved Strayhorn classic, they’re calling the program A Flower is a Lovesome Thing. Turtle Island Quartet has toured internationally for over 25 years; they’re renowned for employing the string quartet form to shed new light on the timeless joy and beauty contained in the greatest music of the American jazz masters. Their acclaimed Center Stage concert in January 2012 featured the music of John Coltrane.

Pre-show discussion with members of the Turtle Island Quartet, 7pm, 2nd floor lobby. Shuttle available for NC State students.

Martha Redbone

CenterStage Martha Redbone Roots Project Saturday, November 2, 2013 at 5pm & 8pm  Titmus Theatre Martha Redbone’s strikingly beautiful, bluesy sound flows from her uniquely American heritage: she was born in Kentucky of Cherokee, Choctaw and African-American descent, and raised in both Brooklyn and the South. She combines Native American elements with Appalachian folk, Piedmont blues, gospel, soul and funk to create gorgeous, rootsy music. Redbone’s most recent album (The Garden of Love, produced by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's John McEuen) takes the immortal words of poet William Blake, the great Romantic visionary from 18th century England, and sets them in the Appalachian Mountains, bringing her soulful voice to hollered melodies, lullabies, ancient chants and inspired hymns. Simply stunning.

Cameron Carpenter Friday & Saturday, November 22 & 23, 2013  Titmus Theatre Performance times: Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 5pm & 8pm He is regularly referred to as the most controversial organist alive. To call him a virtuoso seems wholly inadequate. Hypertalented and flamboyant, Cameron Carpenter’s approach to the organ is smashing the stereotypes of organists and organ music while generating an unprecedented level of acclaim and exposure. His repertoire – from the complete works of J.S. Bach and César Franck, to his hundreds of transcriptions of non-organ works, his original compositions, and his collaborations with jazz and pop artists – is perhaps the largest and most diverse of any organist. Now living in Berlin, Carpenter attended high school at North Carolina’s UNC School of the Arts before moving on to Juilliard.

A staunch advocate of liberating organ music from musty cathedrals, Cameron Carpenter will be performing on a Rodgers digital organ. He will announce his program from the stage.

This project was supported by the North Carolina Arts Council, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources, with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts; and by South Arts, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and the NC Arts Council.

“Mind-blowing technique combined with charisma makes Cameron Carpenter the most exciting talent to emerge in decades.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

CenterStage Lucky Plush Productions: Cinderbox 2.0 Friday & Saturday, January 24 & 25, 2014 at 8pm Jones Auditorium (Meredith College) Inspired by the widespread popularity of reality TV programming, Cinderbox 2.0 explores the comedy and anxiety created by our hypernetworked culture; it blurs the distinctions between the observer and the observed, and what is scripted and what is off-the-cuff. (Think about it: is “reality TV” really real?) Chicago Sun-Times calls this engaging work “a visually, kinetically, sonically and intellectually dazzling piece of dance theatre.” Lucky Plush Productions is a Chicago-based dance theatre company that devises work with a focus on strong ensembles, evocative choreography, integrated technology and bold content. Led by choreographer Julia Rhoads – one of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch” in 2010, and just named as the 2013 dance recipient of the Alpert Award in the Arts – the company is known for its witty commentary on contemporary culture.

Pre-show discussion with choreographer Julia Rhoads, 7pm, Carswell Concert Hall (just around the corner from the entrance to Jones Auditorium). Shuttle available for NC State students. This performance is presented in partnership with Meredith College Dance.

LEO (The Anti-Gravity Show) Tuesday-Sunday, March 18-23, 2014  Titmus Theatre Performance times: Tuesday-Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 5pm & 8pm, Sunday at 3pm What would happen if the law of gravity were to suddenly change? LEO leaves audience members wondering which way is up and which way is down. This utterly fascinating theatre piece is a mind-bending, funny, surreal, and surprisingly touching work that challenges the senses and tests perceptions of reality through the clever interplay of live performance and video projection. Directed by the Montreal actor and director Daniel Briére, and based on an original idea by Tobias Wegner, LEO won several major awards at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and has gone on to dazzle audiences and critics in New York, Berlin, and in countries all around the world.

This performance is funded in part by a grant from South Arts in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and the North Carolina Arts Council.

"LEO is an eye-teasing, grin-inducing, deeply impressive work of sustained absurdist magic." – Time Out New York

CenterStage Catherine Russell Saturday, March 29, 2014 at 5pm & 8pm  Titmus Theatre What a voice… and a delightfully sassy personality to go with it! Catherine Russell was born with an enviable musical pedigree. Her father, Luis Russell, was a celebrated pianist and bandleader, and Louis Armstrong’s long-time musical director. Her mother, Juilliard-trained jazz bassist and vocalist Carline Ray, was famous for performing with the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, Mary Lou Williams, and Wynton Marsalis. Cat Russell has had a rich musical journey backing artists like Steely Dan, David Bowie, Cyndi Lauper, Paul Simon, Jackson Browne, Michael Feinstein, Levon Helm and Rosanne Cash, but it wasn’t until 2006 that she recorded her first solo album as a jazz and blues singer. Armed with a stalwart, soulful voice, Russell has a fondness for music written between the 1920s and 50s (some loaded with double entendres), strong melodies, funny lyrics, and “anything that swings.” She is influenced by old-time blues and jazz singers like Bessie Smith, Ruth Brown, and Etta James.

The Pedrito Martinez Group Saturday, April 12, 2014 at 8pm  NEW Talley Ballroom Our final performance of the season will be a first: Pedrito Martinez and his band in the new Talley Ballroom. The first phase of Talley Student Center construction will open in the spring, and we’ll take it out for a spin with the tightest Afro-Cuban band in New York. The Pedrito Martinez Group has its roots planted firmly in the rumba tradition, and in the batá rhythms and vocal chants of the music of Yoruba and Santeria. Ben Ratliff summed it up aptly for the New York Times calling it, “complex, blenderized Africa-to-the-New-World funk.” Their music is joyful and addictive. Born in Havana in 1973, Pedro Pablo “Pedrito” Martinez began his musical career at the age of 11, performing as vocalist and percussionist with such Cuban legends as Tata Güines and Los Muñequitos de Matanzas. Since moving to New York City, Pedrito has collaborated with Sting, Paul Simon, Wynton Marsalis, Paquito D’Rivera, Meshell Ndegeocello, Eddie Palmieri, Cassandra Wilson, Joe Lovano, and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, and has been featured on more than one hundred albums.

Prepare for a lively party! This concert will be a mixed standing/seated event, with limited reserved tables down in front (buy early), a dance floor in the center, and general admission seating on the sides.

MEASURE OF EARTH: Textiles and Territory in West Africa opening reception Thursday, September 19, 6-8pm Installed at the African American Cultural Center Gallery, 2nd floor, Witherspoon Student Center. Drawing primarily from the rich holdings of African materials in the Gregg Museum’s permanent collections, Measure of Earth explores the intricate relationships and meanings behind the patterns and imagery of West African textiles. The exhibition title refers to how African art not only serves to form visual links between local traditions and specific features and places in the landscape, but also to the geometric patterning that yields vivid visual energy to the textiles, artifacts and clothing that people wear. The word “geometry” derives from Latin words for "earth” and “measuring.” The Measure of Earth exhibition includes a student-participatory fashion show in the Campus Cinema in Witherspoon Student Center on November 7 at 7pm, created by Ghanaian designer/dressmaker Adelaide Afua Wotortsi, who now lives in Durham.

November 21, 2013-January 31, 2014

AND WITH THIS SHELL, THE SEA: The Ceramic Art of Siglinda Scarpa opening reception Thursday, November 21, 6-8pm Installed at NC State’s historic chancellor’s residence, 1903 Hillsborough Street, the future site of the Gregg Museum. Open by appointment; call 919-513-7244 or 919-515-3503, or email gregg@ncsu.edu. North Carolinians are justifiably proud of their state’s famous ceramics heritage, and often point toward sturdy folkwares from Seagrove, the Catawba Valley and other rural locales as artisanal indicators of strong craft traditions and deep ties to the land. But with the exception of Native American pottery, most of it actually has roots originating elsewhere, ranging from the villages of Germany, Africa, Japan and China to the porcelain factories of England’s Stoke-on-Trent. The Mediterranean should be included among such sources as well. North Carolina potter Siglinda Scarpa was born in northwestern Italy at the outset of World War II, and was still in her mid-teens when she left school to be apprenticed to a master ceramicist. This turned out to be a pivotal moment in a life that would later lead to studios in Rome and New York, and eventually to Pittsboro, North Carolina, where she founded her own small art pottery studio and has been making her clay art and sheltering abandoned cats ever since. This winter, to mark Scarpa’s lifetime of generous creativity, the Gregg will be presenting a special exhibition that will suggest the full range of her work, from extremely fragile and airy porcelain sculptures that call to mind delicate undersea corals or passing clouds, to very robust and practical cookwares that make cooking a kind of performance art itself. Whether as thin and translucent as kitten ears or adorned with ornamental vines and leaves, all of her work reveals an intense and exuberant response to the world of nature surrounding her, all the while celebrating the joy of being alive. The title of the show comes Siglinda Scarpa’s own 1979 poem, Elena: Non so cosa puoi prendere I don’t know what you can take from me, Ma so che ti posso dare… But I know what I can give you… Una conchiglia A shell e con essa il mare! And with it the sea!

THEATER OF BELIEF:

Afro-Atlantic costuming and masking in large-format color photographs by Phyllis Galembo opening reception Thursday, January 23, 6-8pm Installed at the African American Cultural Center Gallery, 2nd floor, Witherspoon Student Center. A concurrent exhibition of Galembo’s work will be installed by the Gregg Museum in the Frankie G. Weems Art Gallery, Gaddy-Hamrick Art Center, Meredith College, 3800 Hillsborough Street, Raleigh, running January 23-March 30, 2014. Call 919-760-8239 or 919-760-8332, or email gallery@meredith.edu for more information. Phyllis Galembo, professor of photography at the University at Albany-SUNY, brings a fashion photographer's highly developed technical skills and sensibilities to bear on ethnographic subject matter in a series of stunning portraits from West Africa. Her work will be shown jointly at Meredith College and NC State’s African American Cultural Center in a collaboration organized by the Gregg Museum. Galembo’s images, as noted by Roberta Smith in the New York Times, “are both portraits and documents, but their combination of dignity, conviction and formal power… gives them a votive aspect similar to European paintings of saints or kings.” The costumes, masks and clothing worn by her subjects reveal an intense fascination with the creativity of masquerade that often surpasses the most elaborate examples of haute couture. This has led to an exhibition record that includes not only many European and American museums of anthropology, art and natural history, but also at places like New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology. Galembo is the author of Divine Inspiration from Benin to Bahia, Vodou: Visions and Voices of Haiti, and Dressed for Thrills: 100 Years of Halloween and Masquerade Costumes. For the past fourteen years she has photographed masking and costuming throughout Haiti, Louisiana, Brazil, Benin, Burkina Faso and Nigeria. Theater of Belief is accompanied by Documenting Disguise, a symposium on February 12-13, featuring a keynote lecture by Phyllis Galembo and a panel of other scholars and photographers.

February 6-May 23, 2014

REMNANTS OF THE FLOATING WORLD: Japanese Art from the Permanent Collection opening reception Thursday, February 6, 6-8pm Installed at NC State’s historic chancellor’s residence, 1903 Hillsborough Street, the future site of the Gregg Museum. Open by appointment; call 919-513-7244 or 919-515-3503, or email gregg@ncsu.edu. Before long the Gregg Museum will move into its first stand-alone building, the historic chancellor’s residence at the northern end of Pullen Park. Behind the handsome 1928 home is a walled garden that takes full advantage of the taller trees rising in the park beyond – a concept known to Japanese Zen gardeners as shakkei (借景), or “borrowed landscape.” In planning the adaptation of the site for the new museum, great care will be taken to preserve and enhance the views of the park and its mature trees and shrubs as much as possible. At the same time, the grounds will be made more accessible for visitors to turn their attention to a natural setting where they will be able to read, talk, study or meditate among appealing works of outdoor art. This kind of experience was described by Zen priest Asai Ryōi in his 1661 book, Ukiyo-monogatari (浮世物語, “Tales of the Floating World”), when he portrayed a sensation of “living only for the moment, savoring the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves, singing songs, diverting oneself in just… letting oneself drift, buoyant and carefree, like a gourd floating along in a river current.” To celebrate the landscape surrounding its new site, Remnants of the Floating World draws upon the treasures of the Gregg’s permanent collection to present an exhibition of Japanese ceramics, textiles, and 19th century color woodblock prints (ukiyo-e, 浮世絵 , literally "pictures of the floating world").

UniversityTheatre Arcadia by Tom Stoppard Wednesday-Sunday, September 25-29, 2013 Wednesday-Sunday, October 2-6, 2013  Titmus Theatre Evening shows at 7:30pm, Sunday matinees at 2pm Arcadia takes us back and forth between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, ranging over the nature of truth and time, the difference between the Classical and the Romantic temperament, and the disruptive influence of sex on our orbits in life. It focuses on the mysteries – romantic, scientific, literary – that engage the minds and hearts of characters whose passions and lives intersect across scientific planes and centuries.

“There’s no doubt about it. Arcadia is Tom Stoppard's richest, most ravishing comedy to date, a play of wit, intellect, language, brio and, new for him, emotion. It's like a dream of levitation: you're instantaneously aloft, soaring, banking, doing loop-the-loops and then, when you think you're about to plummet to earth, swooping to a gentle touchdown of not easily described sweetness and sorrow.” – Vincent Canby, The New York Times

The Game's Afoot by Ken Ludwig Friday-Sunday, November 8-10, 2013 Wednesday-Sunday, November 13-17, 2013 Wednesday-Sunday, November 20-24, 2013  Kennedy-McIlwee Studio Theatre Evening shows at 7:30pm, Sunday matinees at 2pm It is December 1936 and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. The festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous, and it’s up to Gillette himself – assuming the persona of his beloved Holmes – to track down the killer before the next victim appears. The danger and hilarity are nonstop in this glittering holiday whodunit. Winner of the 2012 Edgar Allen Poe Award for Best Play by the Mystery Writers of America.

DaNCE PROGRAM The NC State Dance Program gives students the opportunity to study dance through direct experience in choreography and performance. The program’s two student companies, the NCSU Dance Company and the Panoramic Dance Project, are open by audition. An array of classes, offered through the Master Class Series and the African Dance Master Class Series, are open to all NC State students, faculty and staff. The Dance Program provides a rich training ground for choreographers through the study of composition, independent study and guided choreographic projects, and supports a creative environment rich in imagination, reflection, and the embodiment of ideas. As undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in various fields, the dancers at NC State bring their diverse insights and experiences into the artistic process and contribute meaningfully to the art.

Dance Program Fall Concert Thursday & Friday, November 14 & 15, 2013 at 8pm  Titmus Theatre The Fall Concert features the choreography of current students who create work through independent study and through teacher-guided, student-choreographed collaborative projects (the Movement Studies Project and the Identity Project); choreography by alumni; and special projects. Both the NCSU Dance Company and the Panoramic Dance Project perform on the Fall Concert.

Panoramic Dance Project Concert Thursday & Friday, March 27 & 28, 2014 at 8pm  Titmus Theatre The Panoramic Dance Project presents choreographic work with Afrocentric and culturally driven perspectives by its director, invited guest artists, and student company members.

PMC Lecture Series

East African Sacred Music Traditions: Ancient and Modern Friday, September 27, 2013 at 7pm  Kennedy-McIlwee Studio Theatre Dr. Jonathan Kramer, Teaching Professor of Music and Arts Studies at NC State University, will share his experiences and insights gained this summer on an ambitious teaching and research trip to East Africa. In Uganda, Kramer researched new forms of Christian congregational singing rooted in North American gospel. In Ethiopia, he studied a thousand-year-old liturgy of the Coptic Christian church practiced in Lalibela, one of Africa's most ancient and sacred sites. Join him for a fascinating multimedia presentation.

Raleigh Civic Symphony Orchestra Sunday, October 20, 2013 at 4pm  Titmus Theatre Dr. J. Mark Scearce will be the guest conductor for a program that includes two well-known works that are also personal favorites of his: Stravinsky's Pulcinella Suite and J.S. Bach's Suite No. 3 in D, BWV 1068. The concert will feature the 20th anniversary performance of Benediction, which Scearce wrote in response to the tragic death two years previous of the son of his colleague, Soloana Ingram.

Totally Beethoven: Music @ NC State Celebrates 90 Years Sunday, November 17, 2013 at 4pm  Meymandi Concert Hall In celebration of its 90th anniversary, the Music Department, in conjunction with the Raleigh Civic Symphony Association, will present an all-Beethoven concert.

Stravinsky's Histoire du Soldat Sunday, March 2, 2014 at 4pm  Titmus Theatre Igor Stravinsky created L'Histoire du soldat (The Soldier's Tale) as a work to be read, played and danced. It’s a Faustian tale of a young soldier who makes a deal with the devil…and those stories usually don’t end well for the mortal. This staged performance will include musicians from the NC State Music Department and the North Carolina Symphony, a narrator, two actors, and a dancer.

the campaign for the

of art & design

is closing the gap! $3.6 million in student and university support + $2.1 million raised privately so far + $1.8 million more given by supporters like you = $7.5 million and a new Gregg Museum!

Fund-raising progress Major Gifts

More than 25 generous individuals and foundations have chosen to make a major commitment of $25,000 or more to the Gregg Museum Campaign. Several have chosen to name spaces in the new Gregg and will be recognized with permanent donor plaques once the museum is complete. All of these visionary supporters believe in the future Gregg Museum of Art & Design, and we thank them for their support!

Nearly 40 households have joined the Founding Friends of the Gregg Museum Campaign! The campaign’s Founding Friends program recognizes donors of $5,000+. Our goal is to recruit 200 Founding Friends and raise $1 million, nearly a quarter of our total private fund-raising goal. Founding Friends gifts (like all gifts to the campaign) may be paid over five years; therefore, you may contribute $1,000 each year for five years. Founding Friends will be acknowledged permanently on a comprehensive plaque that will be displayed prominently in the future museum. Together, the community can build the new Gregg!

As a reminder‌

All pledges to the Gregg Museum Campaign may be paid over a period of up to five years from the date of the original commitment. No gift is too large or small!

Check out the Gregg Campaign website!

Visit the Gregg Museum Campaign website at newgregg.ncsu. edu to see design renderings, to keep up with our fund-raising progress, to read about our donors, and to learn more about the Gregg Museum of Art & Design and its 26,000+ item collection!

The Campaign for the Gregg Museum of Art & Design is truly a campus and community effort, and you can be a part of it. Consider helping make the Gregg Museum’s permanent home a reality!
