*Sackler Gallery Talk on Friday, April 13*
Join us for a gallery talk on *Lyonel Feininger, Photographs: 1928-1939*,
an exhibition at the Harvard Art Museums of the little-known photographic
work of the American-born modernist Lyonel Feininger (1871–1956).* Although
best known as a painter, Feininger began experimenting with photography and
a range of avant-garde techniques while at the Bauhaus, creating works that
explore night imagery, negative printing, multiple exposures, and radical
cropping. The talk, organized exclusively for Dudley House members, will be
led by Laura Muir, Assistant Curator of the Busch-Reisinger Museum,
Division of Modern and Contemporary Art. We will meet at 2:45pm in the
lobby of the Sackler Museum. Space is limited; RSVP to Ivanna Yi (
iyi(a)fas.harvard.edu).
*Outing to Emmanuel Music’s Performance of Mozart’s Opera La Clemenza di
Tito*
Saturday, April 14th, 8pm, preconcert talk at 7pm by John Harbison
Don’t miss your chance to hear Mozart’s last opera, *La Clemenza di Tito*,
which immediately followed his composition of *The Magic Flute*. The opera
brings a story of desperate intrigues, unrequited love, and heart-stopping
reversals of fortune taken directly from Roman history. Roman aristocrat
Vitellia plots the assassination of Tito, Emperor of Rome. Tito’s
forgiveness of his enemies catches all off guard, turning the opera’s theme
into one of clemency and redemption. Emmanuel Music will perform the opera
as a concert production. A limited number of $10 student tickets are now
available at the Dudley House office. Contact Ivanna Yi (iyi(a)fas.harvard.edu
).
