SUMMARY:Fabric to Flora Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Fabric to Flora\nWorks by Taylor Allison\n\nJanuary 9 – 20\, 2024\nReception: Friday\, January 12th | 6-8P\n  \nI am a textile visual artist and creative place maker\, highly invested in creating \ncommunity\, reimagining place\, practicing permaculture\, and making accessible spaces. To connect with the public\, I observe the local landscape and study native flora. Then I get to work\, creating quilts\, soft sculptures\, and interactive installations. Stitching together my personal fascination with fabric and my intention to bring people together\, I create stand alone pieces and also soft sculpture installations. This combines my desire to show the broad scope of possibilities that fabric can have\, and also create opportunities for us to radically connect with each other\, myself (the artist)\, and the earth. \nQuestions I am asking throughout my practice are: \nHow can we approach art? \nCan we connect with art and each other directly\, without judgment\, full of curiosity and play? \nCan we experience joy with gratitude\, play with contemplation\, and introspection with the mundane? \nCan we learn about the earth\, in a way that is transformative\, grounding\, and fun? \nCan we reimagine plants? \nCan plants that once appeared as inanimate objects and easy to overlook transform into living beings that can change our way of viewing the world at large? \nHow can fabric be transformed\, highlighted\, or used as a tool for touch? \nConsidering these questions and creating opportunities for these experiences are a way to make art sustainable both personally and publicly. Generosity\, openness with strangers\, and the stranger’s willingness to open up to the artist through the work\, are all overarching themes of my practice. \n  \nTo learn more\, visit our website here \nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \nTuesday\, 1-6pm \nWednesday\, 10a-3pm \nThursday\, 1-6pm \nFriday\, 12-5pm \nSaturday\, 2-5pm

SUMMARY:Andrew Willis\, harpsichord and piano • Artist Faculty Recital
DESCRIPTION:DOWNLOAD PROGRAM\n  \n \n\nThe importance of philanthropy has never been greater. Please consider a gift to the School of Music to support our mission and ensure the future of music at UNCG. \n\n \n   \n\n\n\n\n\nPianist Andrew Willis explores the historical development of keyboard instruments and their performance practice\, maintaining a commitment to the study\, performance\, and teaching of the widest possible range of repertoire. Keenly interested in the history of the piano\, he contributes frequently to conferences\, festivals\, and concert series. He is a past president of the Southeastern Historical Keyboard Society and a Trustee of the Westfield Center for Historical Keyboard Studies\, for whose International Fortepiano Competition he served as a juror. \nAs Covington Distinguished Professor of Music in the UNC Greensboro School of Music\, Willis teaches performance on instruments ranging from harpsichord to modern piano. He directed the biennial UNCG Focus on Piano Literature for over a decade and recently inaugurated a student Historical Performance Consort. For the Albany\, Bridge\, Claves\, Centaur\, and CRI labels he has recorded solo and ensemble music of three centuries on pianos linked historically to the chosen repertoire. His recording of Op. 106 for the first complete Beethoven sonata cycle on period instruments was hailed by The New York Times as “a ‘Hammerklavier’ of rare stature.” \nWillis received the D.M.A. in Historical Performance from Cornell University\, where he studied fortepiano with Malcolm Bilson\, the M.M. in Accompanying and Chamber Music from Temple University under George Sementovsky and Lambert Orkis\, and the B.M. in Piano from The Curtis Institute of Music\, where his mentor was Mieczyslaw Horszowski.
