WINTER BREAK AT THE ArtBar Kidspace / pg. 18

Greetings, Though I usually use this space to tout upcoming shows, I’d like instead to talk about our members—our core audience, the community of people who discover (and create) connections across the many shows they’ve enjoyed, offering new ideas, spreading the word, and becoming friends with our staff and artists. Our members make this place.

Membership is multi-directional, benefitting our artists, our programs, and our audience.

Members enjoy “first dibs” on sell-out events, deep discounts on select performances, and — always —free museum admission and zero handling fees on advance ticket purchases.

When we opened Eclipse —an exhibition organized by artists Edward Morris and Susannah Sayler in collaboration with The New Yorker’s Elizabeth Kolbert —our members knew about it (and the opening reception) before anyone else.

Become a member (or renew) to get $5 member tickets to shows such as Sundance Theatre Lab and kid-pop Elska. Become a member to save at our retail stores. Members get more art, hear more music, and eat more ice cream (because even that’s cheaper for members). But most importantly, members —the people who create this place by using it —catalyze the web of social and creative interactions that define MASS MoCA. If you are already a member—thank you. If you’re not already a member, sign up now.

Enjoy the fall season, and join us in New York City on October 6!

“THERE WILL BE A THOUSAND MORE BRADLEY MANNINGS.” - JULIAN ASSANGE

In July 2013, Private Chelsea (formerly Bradley) Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison after publishing the largest set of classified documents ever leaked to the public. The conviction provoked a maelstrom of media coverage, ranging from portraits of Manning’s personal life to new dialogues about military abuses. In producer Beth Morrison’s latest work-in-progress, Ted Hearne and director Daniel Fish dive headfirst into this digital storm with an assemblage of Twitter feeds, chat transcripts, and court testimony, wound together in an arresting music-theater production.

“THE THINKING MAN’S GUITAR HERO.” - THE NEW YORK TIMES

Magical guitarist Gary Lucas performs his original live score to a touchstone of Chinese cinema. Directed by Wu Yonggang and starring the incomparable Shanghai diva Ruan Lingyu, The Goddess (1934) tells the tragic tale of a young single mother forced into prostitution in Shanghai — the “Paris of the East” — in order to raise money for the education of her son. Lucas’s score draws upon his extensive knowledge of 1930s Shanghai pop, also displayed prominently in his celebrated album The Edge of Heaven.

DANCE

BOLD DANCE, BIG IDEAS WITH JACOB’S PILLOW Choreographer Kyle Abraham is a modern Renaissance man, trained as a classical cellist, visual artist, and contemporary dancer. Abraham, a MacArthur “Genius” Fellow — and his ensemble of phenomenal dancers — performs his newest work, The Watershed. Set to a rambunctious score ranging from contemporary cello to Otis Redding, Abraham’s signature blend of postmodern traditions, urban influences, and classical form delivers meaning and message through excitingly original dancing.

PERFORMANCE POETRY Aja Monet is an internationally renowned poet and performer. Her voice is unforgettable. Her words, grounded in familiar sights and sounds, uproot the vivid imagery of everyday life with an impressionistic approach worthy of her last name. A musical scrim of hopes and dreams, scenes from childhood, and philosophical ponderings coalesce in an intimate night of spoken word.

COMEDY

CRAZY FUNNY, SCARY SMART “Smart, analytical and rising” is how Time Out NY described the Brooklynbased, Queens-raised comic Hari Kondabolu, a ubiquitous and hilarious presence on late -night TV (Letterman, Conan, Kimmel, Comedy Central) and at festivals from South by Southwest to Bumbershoot to Sasquatch. Listen in amazement as he manages to turn his London School of Economics Master’s Degree in Human Rights into stand-up gold. Bring your brain to this one.

LEE BOROSON

PLASTIC FANTASTIC The white noise of Niagara Falls, fog, lava, and smokestacks coalesce in Plastic Fantastic — the latest installation by Lee Boroson in our largest gallery.

Inflatables, fabric, and glass create an immersive experience for viewers to move through. Boroson’s installations are at once embodied and ephemeral; they transform both material and experience while mediating between the landscape as culture and landscape as wilderness.

Members’ opening reception with the artist

Saturday, October 11, 5-6:30pm

This exhibition is supported by the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional support is provided by the Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.

While fabricating handmade paper garments, Ann Hamilton began to understand them as musical instruments: they rattled, snapped, and rustled when worn. This exhibition includes post-performance works from her collaboration with Bang on a Can.

CO-ORGANIZED WITH DIEU DONNÉ

September 1, 2014, marked the 100th anniversary of the death of Martha, the last surviving passenger pigeon — a dove-like bird which once darkened the sky with the immensity of its flocks. The installation, a collaboration between artists Susannah Sayler and Edward Morris and The New Yorker writer Elizabeth Kolbert, strikes a cautionary note about the rising number of extinctions.
