At the Telfair Academy  

April 24th, 2009 through August 2nd, 2009

www.telfair.org | 912-790-8800  

Reframing a Perceptual Paradigm
Presented by the Telfair Museum of Art
This site-specific, multi-gallery installation by Savannah resident and nationally-recognized artist Jerome Meadows will feature his work in combination with select objects from the Telfair's collection to reinterpret and reframe the traditional views of the museum’s permanent collection. Meadows will utilize a mix of paintings, historic furniture, decorative arts, and prints from the museum’s collection, which will be presented in a series of assembled settings. These objects will be juxtaposed with original works fabricated by Meadows as visual commentary, and with altered and enlarged photographic reproductions. Meadows will also draw upon the frame as a visual metaphor, utilizing a selection of the more decorative sort as independent components—removed, reconsidered, deconstructed, and realigned.

The exhibition includes a "Free Week" event April 27-30 and a free evening lecture by Meadows April 30 at 6 p.m..
Part of the Telfair's Art in Focus series. Partial funding provided by the City of Savannah's Department of Cultural Affairs.

"Urinetown: The Musical" directed by Jeffrey DeVincent
book by Greg Kotis
lyrics by Greg Kotis and Mark Hollmann
music by Mark Hollmann

Winner of three Tony Awards,
including Best Book

The Number One Musical!
(Once you get past the title, it's all good, clean fun)

One of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, Urinetown is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company thatprofits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

Building on the success of the museum’s first Juneteenth celebration, the Telfair will present a series of programs exploring African American history, culture, and identity. The 2009 Juneteenth series will link to new interpretation and research at the Telfair’s Owens-Thomas House. The museum will also continue its partnership with the historic Second African Baptist Church as a program site in close proximity to the Owens-Thomas House by presenting a lecture by noted race and gender activist Naomi Tutu. The week’s events will begin with free admission opportunities to take part in the museum’s walking tour based on the story of Reverend Andrew C. Marshall, a former slave who went on to become one of Savannah’s most prominent citizens. The week will culminate with the 2nd Annual Juneteenth Family Day at the Owens-Thomas House, featuring renowned musical group the McIntosh County Shouters, a “Jumping the Broom” ceremony, the African Tall Spirit Stilt Walkers, and art-making activities for children. Project funding provided by the City of Savannah.
