SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Hector Acuna
DESCRIPTION:The Glass Trap is an exhibition of recent paintings and drawings by the artist Hector Acuna made from direct observation in his studio and outdoors en plein air. What began as a recurring motif in the field\, reflections from public mirrors and windows\, evolved into a new practice of staging found mirrors and handmade reflective objects as his process and subject. The latest handmade object in his growing collection of homemade props is a custom wooden cube he decorated with hand cut mirrors. How light and space become skewed and fragmented on glass inspires his approach because it holds a tension between what appears familiar yet unfamiliar. \nThe ephemeral quality of light held his primary interest when painting outdoors as he observed successive moments in time. In his studio\, his focus shifted towards close and careful observations of mirrored objects against large fields of atmospheric color. Hector explored the elemental role of shape and uncovered opportunities to simplify his subjects into a visual language of sharp and often opaque shapes. He aimed to transform common and everyday subjects with hopes of finding something unexpected. Glass has become an exciting material where themes of scale\, interior/exterior space\, perception\, and self can be explored and where visual combinations seem endless. \nArtist’s Reception: Friday\, January 17 from 5 to 9 p.m. (Gallery Night MKE)\nArtist Talk: Saturday\, January 18 at 1:00 p.m. (Gallery Day) \n

SUMMARY:Milwaukee Irish Arts: RAGING - Pint and a Play
DESCRIPTION:Staged reading of the one-act play EMBARGO from Deirdre Kinahan’s trilogy RAGING \nThe second play in Kinahan’s RAGING trilogy\, EMBARGO\, focuses on a pivotal moment during the Irish War of Independence. It was commissioned by Dublin Port\, Irish Rail and Fishamble Theatre Company to highlight the role of civil militancy during the Irish War of Independence against Britain. The play dramatizes the little-known strike initiated by dockers and train drivers\, who refused to handle munitions or transport British soldiers for a period during 1920-21\, at the risk of losing their jobs or worse. \nDeirdre Kinahan is an award-winning playwright and a member of Aosdána\, Ireland’s elected body of outstanding artists. She says this about the national strike of 1920: “It was…an extraordinary moment of defiance\, of sacrifice\, of ingenious battle\, and justified rage. But it came at a cost \, an immense personal cost…” \nPay what you will. \n
