 | MahlerFest XXVI
3:30 PM - 5:30 PM
Experience the MahlerFest Orchestra, led by Robert Olson, in the lushly beautiful and lyrical Fourth Symphony of Gustav Mahler, composed during Mahler's "Wunderhorn" years, when his muse was the corpus of enchanting German folk poems, Des Knaben Wunderhorn ("Youth's Magic Horn"). This symphony closes with a setting of "The Heaveny Life" which describes, from a child's naive point of view, the wonders of heaven (some not as "heavenly" as you might think!) The featured soprano in this work will be Jennifer Bird-Arvidsson.
The concert will close with maestro Olson leading the MahlerFest Orchestra with the extraordinary mezzo-soprano Julie Simson in a performance of the Abschied ("Farewell") movement from Das Lied von der Erde. This ethereally beautiful song is perhaps Mahler's most intimate music--it is like a small symphony for a chamber orchestra, with solos for every instrument. And With this performance, Julie Simson will be saying her farewell to Boulder, for her career is taking her to another state, alas. Not to be missed! |

6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
The Center of the American West, CU Continuing Education, Boulder County, and the AirWaterGas Research Network invite you to a new lecture series.
Beginning on February 26th, on Tuesday nights through May, a speaker with substantial expertise on natural gas development will provide a measured, honest exploration of this controversial topic. Each presenter will be scrupulous about acknowledging areas of uncertainty (“What We Don’t Know”), and emphasizing open questions that require careful deliberation.
CU historian Patty Limerick will launch the series with a talk placing natural gas development in the history of Western American extractive industries. Throughout the series, Limerick will act as moderator. Recognizing that many members of the audience will hold strong opinions, we look forward to honest – and civil and respectful – discussions of a crucially important topic.

| Export Control Regulations and Research: A University Challenge
1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
Export controls present unique challenges to universities and colleges because they require balancing concerns about national security and U.S. economic vitality with traditional concepts of unrestrcited academic freedom and publication and dissemination of research findings and results. University researchers and administrators need to be aware that these laws may apply to research, whether sponsored or not. However, it is also important to understand the extent to which the regulations do not affect normal university acitivies. This talk will provide the parameters of export controls regulations within a university environment.

 | Opening Reception for Jen Lewin: It's Electric
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
ART/TEKNE: Part 2*
Please join us for a reception, Friday, May 31st, from 6 - 8 pm, to
celebrate the opening of the exhibition, Jen Lewin: It's Electric.
It’s Electric is a solo exhibition featuring six new playful, interactive light and sound sculptures by new media artist Jen Lewin. These works are intended to inspire experimentation and group collaboration while encouraging participants to become part of the artwork through direct interaction and active collaboration with the work on view.
Lewin has spent the last fifteen years honing her highly technical medium through the fabrication of large-scale interactive sculptures that she has exhibited in public spaces throughout the country. From responsive sound and light forms that incorporate dance, to woven fiber video curtains that reflect movement, to giant robotic moths that flutter in response to human touch, Lewin’s ability to utilize technology as a medium challenges many pre-conceived limits and conceptions of new media works. At once organic and electronic, Jen Lewin’s playful sculptures leave viewers enchanted and surprised while encouraging delight through the viewer’s engagement with the work.
Jen Lewin is an internationally renowned interactive sculptor whose studio is located in Boulder, Colorado. Her technically complex works have been featured at the Gwangju Art Biennale, Tisch School of the Arts, Lincoln Center, Burning Man, WIRED Magazine’s NextFest, and SXSW. In 2010, Lewin collaborated with Claes Oldenburg to internally illuminate The Paint Torch, one of Oldenburg’s large-scale public sculptures in Lenfest Plaza, Philadelphia. Her design and multimedia work has been featured in publications such as National Geographic, Siggraph, Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures, Bon Appétit, WIRED, The New York Times, and Automation in Construction. Lewin served as Creative Director for the Ceren Project and Ivee Project at Sundance Laboratory for Computing in Design and Planning, as well as a lead designer for ITN (Saber) in Palo Alto. Lewin earned her BA in Environmental Design from the University of Colorado Boulder and an MPS in Interactive Telecomunications from New York University.
*The ART/TEKNE series, curated by Lisa Tamiris Becker, is a three-part series planned for the summers of 2012-2014. ART/TEKNE features solo-exhibitions of internationally known Colorado artists whose works chart new relationships between technology, aesthetics, and society.
This exhibition is generously supported in part by the HBB Foundation, the CU Art Museum benefactors and members, as well as by the CU Boulder Student Arts and Cultural Enrichment (ACE) fees.
