Storm of Progress: German Art after 1800 from the Saint Louis Art Museum presents the Museum’s world-class collection of German art of the last 200 years. From Romanticism in the 1800s to the eclectic globalism that followed the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, this exhibition highlights how art, politics, and history are inextricably linked.

The exhibition brings together 120 works in chronological and thematic sections that explore key ideas and events from German art and history spanning national unification, industrialization, World Wars I and II, the Holocaust, and the Cold War and its aftermath. Art in a wide range of media, from paintings to decorative arts, shows the richness of the Museum’s collection, and many works will be on view for the first time.

This unique civic treasure of German art is a testament to the philanthropic support of our patrons. Because of their generosity, we are able to offer this exhibition free of charge during this unprecedented time.

Join Eve Rosekind, PhD student in the Department of Art history & Archaeology in Arts & Sciences, for a talk about Orientalism, the artistic representation of the Middle East by European artists. The most common subjects of orientalist artwork that emerged in the nineteenth century were the desert landscape, hunters and warriors, market scenes, and odalisques in harems. These orientalist themes continued throughout the twentieth century, demonstrating the longevity of Orientalism within the history of art.

Initially these orientalist artworks appear as beautiful and straightforward representations of their subject matter, but the ideas that underlie these artistic depictions stem from European histories of colonialism and empire. This talk will scrutinize the common artistic themes of Orientalism and how they constructed a specific European vision and fantasy of the Orient. The Museum’s collection of paintings, photographs, and works on paper will take participants on a journey through the complex themes of European Orientalism.

This program is free, but registration is required.

Title: How to Learn a Song!

Description: So, you want to learn a song, but you're not sure how or where to start. We'll focus first on how to choose a key that's right for you, and how to use a capo and play around with different keys to find the best match for your voice. What's the highest note or lowest note we might be hitting, and let's make sure that the key is going to best for your vocal range. We'll also map out how to change chords around from the master song so that it'll fit in the new key you may be using. We'll also touch on guitar back up and some fun bass runs we can do to add some depth and dynamics to the song. There'll be a Q&A afterward for any additional questions students might have.

This pop duo will do live DJ sessions every day on Facebook at 12 p.m. CST. Click here to view the streams on their Facebook page!

Join us in contributing to Common Ground, a new, participatory exhibition celebrating the opening of COCA’s expanded Ferring East Wing led by artist, Olanyiyi Akindiya.

Common Ground is a place to be together in this moment: an opportunity for us all to forget our differences, what positions we hold in society or any of the other cultural forces that push us apart.

Common Ground is designed not only as an exhibition, but also as an ongoing collaboration with the community. There is work by the artist throughout COCA to inspire visitors to see, think, discuss, decide. The heart of the exhibit is made of modular, interchangeable pieces that symbolize the human form and are easy to manipulate. Each visitor can choose to add, move, or take away any element, creating an ever-evolving visual dialogue throughout the course of the exhibition. It will be built in by the visitors, in constant flux. The modular human figures become the tools for all of us to tell our new stories of today and what we hope tomorrow should give birth to. This piece gives us the chance to rewrite the wrong, to understand we cannot do anything about what has happened, but we can make tomorrow a better place for the next generation. Resiliency lies in us coming together to honor and celebrate our differences.

The Saturday Night Lisolation show is a livestream event of Americana Folk, Rock and Blues favorites with a warm peppering of storytelling throughout the show. While getting to hear some well-known favorites in the genre, Carl M Banks includes his original repertoire that draws inspiration from unlikely, yet relevant places, ranging in subject matter from 19th century abolitionists to WWE wrestlers (remember when it was an "F"?). The nylon-string electric lends a brightness to his folk-synth interpretations, while story arcs of both the classic and original music pulls listeners into an active hearkening experience. Join in via both Instagram (@carlmbanks) and Facebook Live (https://www.facebook.com/carl.banks1).
