SUMMARY:Riveting: Women Artists from the Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell Collection
DESCRIPTION:June 22–September 8\, 2024 \n\nRiveting presents extraordinary art by contemporary women artists drawn from the major\, private collection of Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell. This bold exhibition expresses the collector’s personal interest in finding emergent artistic voices and powerful artistic statements that speak to prominent social issues of the day\, including those relating to LGBTQ+ communities and reproductive rights. All major media are included: paintings\, sculptures\, works on paper\, photographs and textiles\, and themes range from humorous and irreverent to thought-provoking. \nInternationally recognized artists include Cindy Sherman\, Kiki Smith\, Ana Mendieta and many others\, featured alongside under-recognized and local artists. One of the highlights will be Carolee Shneemann’s Interior Scroll (1974/75)\, a groundbreaking achievement of feminist art that remains relevant and controversial to this day.

SUMMARY:The Quiet World of Edward Hopper
DESCRIPTION:June 15–September 8\, 2024 \n\nFew artists have been able to convey a distinct vision of the world as directly as Edward Hopper (American\, 1882–1967). With great clarity\, Hopper expressed a deeply personal response to modern life with his enigmatic depictions of urban and rural environments. The everyday\, even mundane slices of life and ordinary subjects regularly indicate a psychological state of mind\, most often suggesting a sense of isolation or loneliness. He rejected the influences of European modernism to work in a realistic\, representational style\, and create a uniquely American point of view that expresses his response to living in the twentieth century. \nThe Quiet World of Edward Hopper\, an exclusive exhibition to the DAI\, will feature the holdings from the DAI collection\, which include a drawing\, etchings\, watercolor figure studies from his early years as an illustrator visiting Europe\, along with the celebrated painting High Noon\, 1949. The exhibition will also have key loans from other museums and private collections.

SUMMARY:OKAN
DESCRIPTION:Fusing Afro-Cuban roots with jazz\, folk and global rhythms in songs about immigration\, resistance and love\, OKAN takes their name from the word for heart in their Afro-Cuban religion of Santeria. With vocals in Spanish\, English and Spanglish\, OKAN is led by the Cuban-born violinist and vocalist Elizabeth Rodriguez and percussionist and vocalist Magdelys Savigne\, both Grammy and Latin-Grammy nominees. \nHaving recently worked with Bomba Estereo\, Lido Pimienta\, and Dayme Arocena\, OKAN’s Juno-winning sophomore release Espiral debuted in first place on Canada’s !Earshot charts and was included in NPR’s top 10 Alt Latino and CBC Music’s top 20 of that year. \nPassionate advocates for freedom of expression\, queer rights and gender equality\, OKAN has gained a reputation for their powerful live performances\, which showcase their incredible harmonies\, virtuosic musicianship\, potent lyrics as well as an unfailing ability to connect with audiences on a deep emotional level. \n \nEmbracing genres that have not historically fostered women artists outside of the role of singer\, OKAN co-leaders have faced many challenges. Magdelys talks about the obstacles she faced in pursuing percussion in her native Cuba and how “coming out as a percussionist” to her family. was as big a deal as coming out as queer. Part of the next wave of Cuban women composers and multi-instrumentalists\, Elizabeth and Magdelys bring a fresh perspective to Latin and world jazz fusion through their powerful harmonies\, elevated musicianship and provocative but playful lyrical content. \nBorn in Havana\, Cuba\, Elizabeth Rodriguez is a classically trained violinist who served as concertmaster for Havana’s Youth Orchestra. Magdelys Savigne hails from Santiago de Cuba and graduated with honors in orchestral percussion from Havana’s University of the Arts. \nCalled “lush and vibrant\, urgent but specific and deeply intentional” by CBC Music\, OKAN’s second album Espiral delved deeper into the group’s rich Cuban roots\, finding renewed inspiration in this powerful musical heritage. The Santeria influences aremost evident in the title track\, which uniquely blends guajira\, the folk genre of Eastern Cuba\, with Santeria-derived chants. \nA new album\, Okantomi\, to be released in the fall of 2023\, includes special guests as classical violinist Lara St. John\, leading figures in Cuban jazz\, Dayme Arocena and Elmer Ferrer as well as the legendary Afro-Cuban percussionist Amado Dedeu. \nOfficial showcases at SXSW\, Folk Alliance International\, Mundial Montreal\, Contact East\, Folk Music Ontario\, Pacific Contact\, Ontario Contact and Global Toronto have led to invitations to perform across Canada and the U.S. with stops at The Kortright Centre (Vancouver)\, The Grand (Calgary)\, Hermann’s (Victoria)\, Passim (Boston)\, Old Town School of Folk (Chicago)\, Cal Performances (Berkely)\, as well at the Blue Skies\, Mariposa\, Toronto Jazz\, Exit Next\, Nuit D’Afrique\, Harrison and Middlebury festivals\, to name just a few.

SUMMARY:The Quiet World of Edward Hopper
DESCRIPTION:June 15–September 8\, 2024 \n\nFew artists have been able to convey a distinct vision of the world as directly as Edward Hopper (American\, 1882–1967). With great clarity\, Hopper expressed a deeply personal response to modern life with his enigmatic depictions of urban and rural environments. The everyday\, even mundane slices of life and ordinary subjects regularly indicate a psychological state of mind\, most often suggesting a sense of isolation or loneliness. He rejected the influences of European modernism to work in a realistic\, representational style\, and create a uniquely American point of view that expresses his response to living in the twentieth century. \nThe Quiet World of Edward Hopper\, an exclusive exhibition to the DAI\, will feature the holdings from the DAI collection\, which include a drawing\, etchings\, watercolor figure studies from his early years as an illustrator visiting Europe\, along with the celebrated painting High Noon\, 1949. The exhibition will also have key loans from other museums and private collections.

SUMMARY:Riveting: Women Artists from the Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell Collection
DESCRIPTION:June 22–September 8\, 2024 \n\nRiveting presents extraordinary art by contemporary women artists drawn from the major\, private collection of Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell.

All major media are included: paintings\, sculptures\, works on paper\, photographs and textiles\, and themes range from humorous and irreverent to thought-provoking. \nInternationally recognized artists include Cindy Sherman\, Kiki Smith\, Ana Mendieta and many others\, featured alongside under-recognized and local artists. One of the highlights will be Carolee Shneemann’s Interior Scroll (1974/75)\, a groundbreaking achievement of feminist art that remains relevant and controversial to this day.
