D300: Concept Consumerism by Rebecca Inducil BFA
D301: Theatre School Event
REDCAT: Perhaps best known for his live, unpredictable performances, John Bock blurs artistic convention, constructing a boundless world all his own. The artist often employs uncanny costumes, assemblages, and props that both reference and examine a range of social, political, philosophical, and aesthetic interests. Gravitating more recently towards multi-media works, Bock’s new project, Palms, co-commissioned by REDCAT and the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt, reflects the artist’s current interest in the narrative structure and genre conventions of film.
MUSIC: A classical voice recital by Jewl Mosteller, featuring sacred works from different traditions, including works by Hildegard von Bingen, Petros Shoujounian, Oliver Messiaen and Aaron Jay Kernis.
REDCAT: West Coast premiere
"Utterly original... A stunning act of choreographed literary transmutation." Time Out New York
"A great work... its rough-hewn, homemade air is suffused with an innocence that one rarely glimpses in a contemporary work of art." Hilton Als, The New Yorker

REDCAT: In her first feature-length film, comic strip artist-turned-filmmaker Nina Paley juxtaposes multiple narrative and visual styles to create a highly entertaining and affecting vision of the Ramayana — the ancient Sanskrit epic and essential fixture of the Hindu canon. Musical numbers choreographed to the 1920s-era jazz vocals of Annette Hanshaw spin off an astonishing whirlwind of flying monkeys, evil monsters, gods, goddesses, warriors, sages, and winged eyeballs.

Ann Magnuson and Adam Dugas face off on vocals as Alexander Rannie and Mia Theodoratus strum their harps in this twisted match of musical one-upmanship. The quartet thrusts and parries with an arsenal of tunes ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime: psychedelic calls to prayer, Henry Purcell's Baroque art songs, Kraftwerk, Buffy St. Marie, Lee Hazlewood and Pink Floyd, as well as original songs by Magnuson and Dugas. New York art star-turned-L.A.
