ArtWalk - January 4th

Executive Director Liora Sponko, fulfilling the annual tradition of the ED to host once a year, hosts Lane Arts Council’s First Friday ArtWalk on January 4th!  The ArtWalk begins at 5:30 pm at MECCA Gallery (449 Willamette St), followed by stops at Clarke Studio and Gallery (760 Willamette), The New Zone Gallery (164 W Broadway), The Jazz Station (124 W Broadway), and NEST (1235 Willamette St).  ArtWalk is from 5:30-8pm and always free!  Visit www.lanearts.org for more information.

AND AT DIVA ...

The New Year begins with a First Friday ArtWalk opening and artist reception on January 4th, from 5:30 - 8:00PM, for “DIVA in Film” - a two-part exhibit that celebrates the cinematic arts.
DIVA’s east side gallery features work by five local artists who have each done his or her own interpretation of, or, reaction to a famous scene in cinema. The artists include Elise Ertel, painting; Jeff Langevin, digital print; Mike Stephen, sculpture/mix media; Seth Pierce, textile printing; Katie Richanbach, screen printing.
The west side gallery displays a collection of classic film posters, including several posters of motion pictures that were shot in Eugene. A film's poster is instrumental to any film's commercial success. But the posters on display not only communicate their message successfully but also do so in a visually striking way. This exhibit highlights where pop culture meets fine art. The exhibit runs through January.
The Downtown Initiative for the Visual Arts Center (DIVA) celebrates the art of the moving image throughout January with a series of exhibits and events concluding with the 9th annual OpenLens Festival on the 26th. OpenLens Festival: http://openlens.proscenia.net/

Great Grandfather's Drum 
April 13, 2012  7:00pm;  The Shedd
FREE
Feature documentary "Great Grandfather's Drum" celebrates Japanese American culture and history in Hawai'i.  It is an inspiring century-long story of struggle and success in the great American tradition; of harsh labor on the plantations, internment and patriotic heroism during WWII, asserting civil rights, and helping to establish statehood for Hawai'i.  The story unfolds through an intimate and joyful portrait of Maui Taiko, a contemporary Japanese American drum ensemble, descendants of plantation workers, and by elders who lived this history.  Kay Fukumoto and her family formed Maui Taiko to continue the tradition of Obon Taiko music brought to Hawai'i from Fukushima, Japan by her great grandfather and others a century ago.  Ms. Fukumoto is one of the first Japanese-American woman taiko performers in the US.  The film connects history to the lives of people living today, and includes Maui Taiko's performances on the giant drums.  We travel with Maui Taiko on a heartfelt journey back to Fukushima to seek their ancestral roots, to return the music brought from this region of Japan to Hawai'i so long ago.
