Macbeth Third World Bunfight
Concept, Design, and Direction
by Brett Bailey
FRIDAY & SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 16 & 17, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$65, $55 | $5 Fairfield University students
U.S. Premiere
“There can be no denying the power and originality of this
astonishing appropriation of Verdi’s Macbeth” HHHHH
– THE TELEGRAPH, LONDON
In 2016, the world will commemorate 400 years since the death of
William Shakespeare. This special anniversary year is a truly unique
opportunity to visit Shakespeare on stage at the Quick. Join us to
celebrate the Bard’s lasting legacy in this radical take on Verdi’s
Macbeth. Shakespeare’s story of ambition, treachery and witchcraft
is set in the Great Lakes region of Central Africa, amongst the
wars and ruthless exploitation that tear that invisible corner of
the world apart. Within a milieu of multinational double-dealings,
ethnic conflict, brutal militia, ‘blood minerals’ and glittering Chinese
imports, a Congolese warlord and his ambitious wife murder their
leader and unleash atrocities on the crumbling African province that
they seize.
Under the artistic direction of Brett Bailey, Third World Bunfight is a
performance company whose works foreground issues, stories and
situations that are all too often overlooked, suppressed or ignored,
and unpack and expose the machinations of power that crush so many people or render them voiceless.

CAUTION BEFORE VOTING!
Lampooning & Laughs
with P.J. O’Rourke
Open VISIONS Forum
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$35 | $5 Fairfield University students
The iconoclastic master of political parody P.J. O’Rourke
opens the Open VISIONS Season with his wickedly
sharp satire directed at what promises to be a rollicking
presidential campaign. His taunting takes on the American
electoral process will be sliced with his trademark razor
sharp satire. And in an election cycle that is equal parts
horror and humor, the laughs guarantee to provide a
much-needed alternative to the talking heads and spin
that dominate the news. Launching his career in the early
days of National Lampoon, O’Rourke’s contrarian views
became a staple in legacy publications like Playboy, Vanity
Fair, and Rolling Stone. Armed with a provocatively antiestablishment outlook and professed ‘damn them all’ Libertarian philosophy, he has published 16
books, including three New York Times bestsellers. A regular guest on Bill Maher’s Real Time, and
NPR’s Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me! O’Rourke is one of the “most often quoted” humorists alive according
to 60 Minutes.

WHAT IS A REPUBLICAN TO DO?
Robert A. George
Open VISIONS Forum: Espresso
Wien Experimental Theatre
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2016 | 8 P.M.
This event is free for Fairfield University students, however, reservations
must be made in advance. For more information, please contact the
Quick Center Box Office at [email protected].
Noted Daily News and New York Post columnist Robert A. George will
reflect on the state of the Grand Old Party after a raucous primary season
that was anything but conservative. From a New York billionaire courting
the traditionally democratic white working class to a campaign trail that
was simply brutal for “mainstream” conservatives, George will consider
the identity and the identity-politics of the Republican party. Originally
from Trinidad, George made a name for himself working for former
speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and the Republican National Committee before becoming a
sought-after conservative pundit. In addition to his newspaper columns, George is seen frequently
on CNN, MSNBC and Fox News.

OLD POLITICAL BATTLES, NEW MEDIA
AND THE HAPPY MIDDLE
Margaret Hoover and John Avlon
Open VISIONS Forum
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$35 | $5 Fairfield University students
11th Annual Student Forum
Moving beyond the “he said, she said” discourse of
right versus left, this fresh take on substantive political
talk in an election year with so much shouting will be
the smart antidote discerning voters will want to hear.
Both Hoover and Avlon can be seen and heard across
the airwaves and digital landscape: from CNN and
C-SPAN to Twitter and FoxNews.com, these reasoned
voices will make for a must-attend evening of smart talk.
Beyond party labels, or lack thereof, their domestic banter and argumentation focuses on the common
good and encouraging dialogue. Promoting our national interest, this point/counterpoint evening walks
the increasingly elusive middle ground in spite of a media landscape fixated on extremist spectacle. Find
out what happens when a couple walks down the aisle only to end up in careers that keep them near the
political aisle professionally. The “proud Republican” great granddaughter of President Herbert Hoover
and her husband, the centrist Editor-in-Chief of new media darling The Daily Beast take the stage to talk
about the presidential election as well as the changing political and media landscape.

MARIZA
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$45, $40 | $5 Fairfield University students
To describe Mariza’s work as soulful and passionate
is simply inadequate. When she comes onto the
stage you become transfixed by her exquisite voice
and music that honors the traditions of Portuguese
Fado while simultaneously blending and creating a
new definition of Fado for the future.
In only a short time, Mariza has risen from a wellhidden local phenomenon, known only to a small
circle of admirers in Lisbon, to one of the most
widely acclaimed stars of the World Music circuit.
There’s a reason why she’s described as “the new
face of Portuguese Fado” and her career reflects her
swift rise to fame with appearances on some of the
greatest stages in the world and collaborations with
artists including Jaques Morelenbaum, John Mauceri,
Gilberto Gil, Sting and Rui Veloso.
“Fado is the traditional music of Portugal - proud,
austere and deeply melancholic. Mariza is the
music’s biggest star for a reason: She sings it not
as musty nostalgia but as exuberant twenty-firstcentury pop, with a low, mesmerizing alto that’s as
commanding as any pop singer today...remaking
fado’s ancient sadness into a majestic modern
sound.” ~ Rolling Stone

Dead’s widespread impact on American culture, art and musical
heritage. To celebrate the ‘Deads’ legacy come enjoy a special

VERTIGO DANCE COMPANY
VERTIGO 20
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$45, $35 | $5 Fairfield University
students
VERTIGO 20 moves from real to surreal, from
intimate to theatrical, from impalpable to
tangible. The unique body language of VERTIGO
20, accentuated by wit and hinted sadness
delivers a spectacular staging of rituals.
Hailing from some of Israel’s most respected
dance companies, Noa Wertheim and Adi
Sha’al’s first professional collaboration has led to
VERTIGO 20 which revisits the company’s own
unique history and development throughout the
past two decades as well as the choreographer’s
own personal struggles as a wife, mother and
one of four daughters. In VERTIGO 20, Wertheim
follows the trail of pebbles she’s laid over this 20
year history, as if re-deciphering the secret
of time.
Committed to the intersections of creativity,
social responsibility, and ecological sustainability,
Vertigo Dance is celebrated as much for
their sustainable lifestyle as they are for their
artistic innovation. This commitment to their
community and the earth is reflected in their
movement creating work that is both grounded
and enchanting as dancers seem to float in this
otherworldly setting.
VERTIGO 20 is a coproduction of the Vertigo Dance Company and Fondazione Campania dei Festival - Teatro Festival Italia.

OVERCOMING THE FEAR OF DIFFERENCE
Timothy P. Shriver
Open VISIONS Forum
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2016 | 8 P.M.
$35 | $5 Fairfield University students
The 19th Annual Jacoby-Lunin Humanitarian
Lectureship, in affiliation with the Carl & Dorothy
Bennett Center for Judaic Studies
This lectureship previously has honored the
philanthropic work of world-renowned ambassadors,
legal pursuers of justice, and grass roots inspired global
citizens. Just a few weeks before over 3,000 athletes
with intellectual and physical disabilities representing
over 100 countries descend on the slopes and ice rinks
of Austria for the 2017 Winter Special Olympics, we
proudly pay tribute to its indomitable chairman:
Timothy P. Shriver, PhD. In an exemplary life of public
service, inspired by the faith and service driven role
models of his parents – Sargent Shriver and Eunice
Kennedy Shriver – he has promoted the gifts of
marginalized individuals by advocating for inclusionary dignity for all. As an activist, educator, author,
and film producer, his work has impacted over 4.5 million Special Olympics athletes around the world.
Dr. Shriver has noted that this is a “cause that affects everyone – it is about strengthening community
through acceptance and inclusion.”
This lecture is made possible through the generosity of David and Debby Zieff.

FAIRFIELD UNIVERSITY ART MUSEUM,
Walsh Art Gallery
Rick Shaefer:
The Refugee Trilogy
SEPTEMBER 8 –
OCTOBER 22, 2016
The Fairfield University Art Museum is
pleased to present the inaugural exhibition
of a monumental new series by Rick
Shaefer created in response to the ongoing
refugee crisis convulsing the globe. This
three-piece suite is comprised of Land
Crossing, dealing with the migration across
foreign lands; Water Crossing, addressing
the perilous journeys of refugees who take
to the open seas; and Border Crossing,
spotlighting the hostilities refugees face in
seeking safe haven far from a violence-torn
homeland. The trilogy employs the artistic
lexicon of the Baroque and of Romanticism (specifically
incorporating heroic figurative elements of paintings by
Rubens and Géricault) to explore this contemporary crisis
in a language both familiar and iconic. Such historical
allusions underscore the tenacious persistence of this
epic human tragedy throughout time, past and present.
In addition to the three triptychs, each executed in
charcoal on vellum, the exhibition will include over a
dozen of Shaefer’s preparatory drawings for the series.
Programs planned in conjunction with this exhibition
include an opening night lecture by Stijn Alsteens,
Curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, on Rubens
and the Art of Inspiration; The Syrian Refugee Crisis: Over
Land and Sea – a panel discussion with Dr. Silvia MarsansSakly, Assistant Professor of History, Islamic World, Julie
Whittaker ’12, Founder, Amal Foundation (dedicated
to supporting refugees and their host communities),
Wendy Christian, Associate Vice President, Marketing
and Communication, Save the Children USA, and artist
Rick Shaefer; a lecture by Dr. Lisa Brody, Yale University,
Dura-Europos: Exploring and Preserving Cultural Heritage
in Roman Syria; and a film screening of Salam Neighbor
followed by a conversation with the film’s director, Chris
Temple. An Arabic Calligraphy Workshop with Faraz
Khan and an Artists Talk with Rick Shaefer and innovative
South African playwright Brett Bailey, whose new work
in progress, “The Raft,” is also a response to the current
refugee crisis and, like Shaefer’s pictorial series, finds
inspiration in Géricault’s haunting Raft of the Medusa,
completes the program. Register for these free events at

Leonardo Cremonini
(1925-2010): Timeless
Monumentality
Paintings from the William Louis-Dreyfus
Family Foundation
NOVEMBER 4, 2016 – MARCH 3, 2017
Leonardo Cremonini was one of the preeminent Italian
painters of the 20th century. Widely admired, critically
acclaimed, and technically accomplished, his works are
to be found in the Museum of Modern Art in New York,
the Hirschhorn Museum in Washington, D.C., the Musée
d’Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and
numerous other public collections across Europe and
the United States. The British painter Francis Bacon was
an early admirer of Cremonini, proposing to a gallerist
friend that the poet W.H. Auden write about his work.
Italian literary giants Umberto Eco, Italo Calvino, and
Alberto Moravia authored lyrical appreciations of the
artist. Another champion was William Rubin, legendary
director of MoMA, who articulated the essential idea
that Cremonini’s canvases embody a “spirit of timeless
monumentality.” That acute characterization captures
the ethos of Cremonini’s haunting, poetic and enigmatic
imagery—his arid, light-filled, silent interiors, described in
meticulous detail and populated by anemic, emotionally
detached figures. In their geometric clarity and purity of
form, his compositions recall the still lifes of the modern
Italian painter Giorgio Morandi, while the rigorously
constructed spaces that adhere to the geometric laws of
perspective hark back much further in history, to Piero
della Francesca and other artists of the Italian Renaissance.
With the ascendancy of abstraction and conceptual art
in the later 20th century, Cremonini has been sidelined
at the margins of modernity. But the resurgence of
figurative painting in recent years, and the current,
growing appreciation of modern Italian art, make this the
optimal moment for a critical reappraisal and popular
rehabilitation. Featuring more than 35 works from the
peerless holdings of the Louis-Dreyfus Collection, this
major exhibition is the first monographic survey devoted
to Cremonini in over two decades, and will serve to foster
a renewed appreciation of the artist.
A program of films and lectures, free and open to the
public, complements the exhibition. Yvonne Elet, Professor
of Art History, Vassar College, presents an opening night
lecture, Raphael’s Garden in Mussolini’s Rome and the
American Countess who made it Modern. Emily Braun,
Distinguished Professor, Hunter College and the Graduate
Center of the City University of New York, Cremonini and
Magic Realism” on November 15. Both lectures take place
at 5 p.m. in the Wien Experimental Theatre Register at
fuam.eventbrite.com.

Crafting the Elements:
Ceramic Art of Modern
Japan from the Collection
of Carol and Jeffrey Horvitz
SEPTEMBER 29 – DECEMBER 16, 2016
Created from the fusion of earth, fire and water,
ceramic art is an ancient, enduring, and vibrant
form of creative expression in Japanese culture.
Contemporary Japanese ceramic artists are deeply
mindful of this venerable tradition, and their works are
frequently abound with resonant historical references.
At the same time, many of these practitioners boldly
bend and stretch artistic conventions to create or
incorporate new forms and ornamental language.
Echoes of ceremonial vessels and implements co-exist
beside fluid, organic and evocative shapes that push
the allied media of clay and porcelain to their most
daring and elastic possibilities.
This exhibition presents a choice selection of
contemporary Japanese ceramics from one of the
most distinguished private collections in America.
Seen together, the more than thirty works on view
highlight the creative dynamism and innovation that
enlivens this most traditional art form as practiced by
Japanese ceramic artists today.
Extensive programming complements this exhibition.
On October 5th at 5 p.m., Art History professor Ive
Covaci will give a gallery talk on The Resonance
of Tradition in Modern Japanese Ceramics, and a
Japanese tea ceremony, also called the Way of Tea –
a ceremonial preparation and presentation of matcha
(powdered green tea) – will take place on October
28th at 1 p.m. in the museum’s Meditz Gallery. Ron
Labaco, former Senior Curator of the Museum of Arts
and Design, will present a lecture on Contemporary
Japanese Ceramics in the Diffley Board Room on
November 29th at 5 p.m. Register for these free
events at fuam.eventbrite.com.

Patriots, Traitors, and their Next Door Neighbors.
The Jacksons are a nice middle aged English couple. Their best friends are their Canadian neighbors,
the Krogers. All is blissful in their world until a detective from Scotland Yard asks to use their house as
an observation station to try and foil a Soviet spy ring operating in the area. When the detective reveals
who the Krogers truly are, the Jacksons are put to the test. Should they betray their friends?
