SUMMARY:Under Three Things\, a performance by artist Cristina Molina in Ear to the Ground exhibition
DESCRIPTION:At select intervals throughout the run of the exhibition Ear to the Ground: Earth and Element in Contemporary Art\, New Orleans-based artist Cristina Molina will host a series of intimate guided tours of the exhibition in which she will assume the perspective of the earth\, personified. Drawing upon cultural mythologies of the underworld\, Molina will guide museum visitors through a whispered exploration of the exhibition in which the different artworks in the exhibition constitute the topography of an imagined subterranean landscape. Inspired by the classical myth of Persephone\, who was doomed to spend a third of the year in the underworld\, Molina reimagines this mythological figure as an empowered goddess who harnesses the earth as a place of primordial cultural emergence. Spanning video installation\, performance\, photography\, sculpture and textile design\, Molina’s work privileges female protagonists to explore themes related to origins\, heritage\, and personal mythology\, and how they work in concert with natural and urban landscapes. \n

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Music by Blato Zlato | Panel Discussion: Extraordinary Women and the Founding of a Modern Museum | Curator-led Tours
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA opens the museum’s doors for many interesting activities throughout the year: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n\n5 – 8 pm: Art on the Spot family activity table\n5:30 – 8:30 pm: Music by Blato Zlato\n6:30 – 8 pm: NOLA 4 Women present Extraordinary Women and the Founding of a Modern Museum panel discussion\n7:30 pm: Small Talk: Ear to the Ground exhibition with Curator Katie A. Pfohl\n8 pm: Small Talk: Mildred Thompson: Against the Grain with Independent Curator Melissa Messina\n8:30 pm: Small Talk: Lina Iris Viktor: A Haven. A Hell. A Dream Deferred with Curatorial Fellow Allison Young\n\nABOUT BLATO ZLATO\nBlato Zlato (“Swamp Gold” in Bulgarian) is a New Orleans-based Balkan band featuring dreamy three-part vocal harmonies and hard-hitting instrumentals. Formed in 2015\, the band performs folk and composed music from the Balkans and Eastern Europe\, with a particular focus on Bulgarian songs and dark\, improvisational arrangements. Their debut album\, Swamp Gold\, was released in January 2017 and features traditional Bulgarian and Eastern European melodies interpreted through languid\, dark arrangements and improvisational continuous transitions. \nABOUT NOLA 4 WOMEN PRESENT EXTRAORDINARY WOMEN AND THE FOUNDING OF A MODERN MUSEUM\nThis panel discussion brings together Susan Taylor\, the Montine McDaniel Freeman Director of the New Orleans Museum of Art\, with modern day philanthropists and representatives from philanthropic organizations for a discussion of how extraordinary women have helped shape NOMA’s collection and mission from its inception to the present day. Panelists include Bethany Bultman (speaking about her late aunt\, Muriel Bultman Francis); Walda Besthoff\, major donor and joint namesake for the Besthoff Sculpture Garden; and Phyllis Taylor\, philanthropist and chair and president of the Patrick F. Taylor Foundation. \nSponsored by \n \nABOUT EAR TO THE GROUND\nWorking with natural elements like earth\, wind\, water and fire\, the artists in Ear to the Ground show how nature can spur artistic innovation and spark new thinking about human culture and community. In their art\, nature is not just as a resource to be protected or exploited\, but rather a generative force with its own sentient power. Mining earth both as a material and a metaphor\, the artists in this exhibition treat nature as a teacher: a model for negotiating the complexities of contemporary cultural life. Informed by a kind of elemental logic\, their art envisions new ways we might relate to the natural world\, as well as to one another. \nABOUT MILDRED THOMPSON: AGAINST THE GRAIN\nAgainst the Grain marks the first solo museum presentation of the experimental wood works of the American artist Mildred Thompson (1936-2003) in more than thirty years. Made during the artist’s self-imposed exile in Europe\, Thompson’s wood pictures are only recently being rediscovered and presented in the United States. \nABOUT LINA IRIS VIKTOR: A HAVEN. A HELL. A DREAM DEFERRED.\nLina Iris Viktor is widely recognized for her exploration of art’s connection to history\, spirituality\, and prophecy. Recasting factual and fantastical narratives surrounding America’s involvement in the founding of Liberia\, Lina Iris Viktor: A Haven. A Hell. A Dream Deferred. explores a mythicized history of the West African nation. \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council.  \n

SUMMARY:NOMA Book Club: Michelangelo book on display in Dreyfous Library
DESCRIPTION:Join NOMA staff and fellow book lovers as we read and discuss fiction and nonfiction books related to art\, artists\, art museums\, NOMA’s collections and exhibitions. Our full 2018 schedule and reading list has been announced. \nOrganized by NOMA’s Felix J. Dreyfous Library\, the Book Club is an informal group. You do not have to attend every meeting and we understand if you have to leave a discussion or program early. The book club offers several types of programs: a book discussion group that meets once a month (no reading in December)\, curatorial programs\, field trips\, and Meet the Author receptions. Most book club programs start promptly at noon\, but please arrive at 11:30 a.m. if you wish to bring a sack lunch or meet beforehand. NOMA will provide water and soft drinks. \nRSVP for the meetings you wish to attend so we can prepare the meeting space. \nPlease contact Sheila A. Cork at 504.658.4117 or scork@noma.org for information about joining the NOMA Book Club. \nOctober 2018 Selection\nMichelangelo and the Pope’s Ceiling by Ross King \nWalker Books\, 2003. ISBN: 978-0802713957 \nMichelangelo and the Pope’s Ceiling recounts the fascinating story of the four extraordinary years the artist spent laboring over the twelve-thousand square feet of the vast ceiling\, while war and the power politics and personal rivalries that abounded in Rome swirled around him. A panorama of illustrious figures intersected during this time—the brilliant young painter Raphael\, with whom Michelangelo formed a rivalry\, the fiery preacher Girolamo Savonarola\, and the great Dutch scholar Desiderius Erasmus. \nTuesday\, October 16\, 10 am – 5 pm | A rare\, oversized book of photographs of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling paintings in their pre-restoration condition will be on display in the Felix J. Dreyfous library \n

SUMMARY:West African Cinema Series: Green White Green
DESCRIPTION:Featuring recent award-winning films from Burkina Faso\, Nigeria\, Senegal\, and the United States\, the West African Cinema Series is presented in conjunction with the exhibition Lina Iris Viktor: A Haven. A Hell. A Dream Deferred. \n\nSaturday\, September 29\, 2 pm: Sembene!

Uzoma (Ifeanyi Dike) and his friends are on the cusp of adulthood\, feeling directionless in those stagnant months before the beginning of their college lives. They spend their days playing video games or competing in impromptu yab-offs\, improvised insult matches where the quip that gets the most laughs determines the winner. They’re conscious of the varied cultures of Nigeria’s Igbo\, Hausa\, and Yoruba ethnic groups\, but they’re as likely to play those for laughs as for irritation.\n(Nigeria | Rated PG | 2016 | 1 hour\, 42 minutes) \nWatch the trailer: \n \n
