The Museum of Art proudly announces the exhibition, Terry Slade: Dreamsand Apparitions, opening with a reception on April 16. The centerpiece ofthe show is the installation titled Mantra for the Survival of the Earth, com-

missioned specifically for the Edward Wales Root Sculpture Court. Mantra is an ex-traordinary mobile sculpture composed of 365 richly colored fused-glass disks andmeasuring 14 feet in diameter. Museum visitors may view the sculpture from multi-ple levels under varying conditions of natural light, which promises to create an ex-perience of immeasurable beauty. The exhibition continues in Gallery One Southwith drawings and smaller glass sculptures by Slade.

With Mantra for the Survival of theEarth, Slade explains, “The circles aremade of glass, a beautiful yet fragilematerial that reflects, refracts, and re-constitutes light. The glass is used toemphasize the fragility of our existenceon the third planet from the sun. Formillions of years the earth has rotatedon its axis every 24 hours while orbitingour sun at 64,000 miles per hour, com-pleting one solar year every 365 days.We are suspended in the vacuum ofspace at a nearly constant distance of93 million miles from the sun, which isour only source of light.”

Terry L. H. Slade is Chair of the Depart-ment of Art and Art History at HartwickCollege in Oneonta, New York, where he

has been Professor of Art and Sculptor in Residence since 1983. Slade has hadmore than 100 solo-artist exhibitions throughout the United States and residenciesand exhibitions in Great Britain, Italy, France, Spain, and Japan. Slade’s work is rep-resented in private and public collections in the United States, Japan, and Europe.

A reception in the Edward W. Root Sculpture Court is set to honor Terry Slade in conjunction with artists in the exhibition Elemental.

Roberto DevereuxGaetano Donizetti

Saturday, April 16, 12:55 p.m.Approximate HD run time: 3:46

Soprano Sondra Radvanovsky takes on theextraordinary challenge of singing all threeof Donizetti’s Tudor queen operas in thecourse of a single season, a rare feat madefamous by Beverly Sills—and not attemptedon a New York stage since. In this climacticopera of the trilogy, she plays Queen Eliza-beth I, forced to sign the death warrant ofthe nobleman she loves, Roberto Devereux.Tenor Matthew Polenzani is Devereux, andmezzo-soprano Elīna Garanča and baritoneMariusz Kwiecien complete the principalquartet in the bel canto masterpiece, con-ducted by Donizetti specialist MaurizioBenini. As with the earlier Anna Bolena andMaria Stuarda, the production is by SirDavid McVicar who, with this staging, com-pletes an enormously ambitious directorial accomplishment.

ElektraRichard Strauss

Saturday, April 30, 12:55 p.m.Approximate HD run time: 2:10

The genius director Patrice Chéreau (Fromthe House of the Dead) didn’t live to seehis great Elektra production, previouslypresented in Aix and Milan, make it to thestage of the Met. But his overpowering vi-sion lives on with soprano Nina Stemme—unmatched today in the heroic femaleroles of Strauss and Wagner—who portraysElektra’s primal quest for vengeance forthe murder of her father, Agamemnon.Legendary mezzo-soprano Waltraud Meieris chilling as Elektra’s fearsome mother,Klytämnestra. Soprano Adrianne Piec-zonka and bass-baritone Eric Owens areElektra’s troubled siblings. Chéreau’s mu-sical collaborator Esa-Pekka Salonen con-ducts Strauss’s mighty take on Greekmyth.
